TURNING OUT A
NEW PRODUCT

NEW PRODUCI
The DanvilIe Stove and Manufacture
ing Company has added something en-
tirely new to its already extensive line
of stoves. The latest addition is
range embracing all the latest attach
ments and is regarded as the most COM
plete cooking apparatus ever put on
the market 1t is IN colonial finish to
meet the growing demand for plain
ness and lack of ornamentation, which
holds good i'll the matter of stoves as
well as in other lines of furniture.
Incidentally, the new stove Will be
manufactured by J. F. Tooley, who
will operate the we'll equipped little
foundry, East Mahoning street, which
| until the first Of the present month was
run by John Hooley, now filling the
! position as general manager with the
Thatcher Furnace Company, of New
ark, n J. Mr.. Tooley will devote
his foundry largely if not exclusively
10 the manufacture Of stoves for the
| Danville Stove and Manufacturing
Company, whose business has out
grown he-capacity of its plant. Mr..
Tooley will be able to turn out a max
imum of II stoves per day and this
steady help will materially assist the
other and larger plant to fill its orders.
Mr.. Tooley is known as an enterpris-
ing and capable man and it is much
| to his credit that rather than see any
one thrown out of employment he
should be willing to go so far out of
his way and assume new responsible
ties in order to keep the little foundry
running. Harry Hooley, who is very
capable and we'll experienced in office
work, will take charge of the books
and assist Mr. Tooley in the manage
ment
Aided by the smaller plant the total
product of the Danville Stove and
Manufacturing Company will be some
1870 stoves per day. Flasks are already
being made for the new line and these
will be turned over to Mr.. Tooley yet
during the present week and next Mon.
