Robin Hood Powder Company to
Be Moved There from
SWanton

Option Secured on the Houghton Lot
on Central Vermont Railway
Three Large Factory buildings
Absolutely FircprOof TO BE
Constructed soon.

ST. Adams, April 19.-The Robin
Hood Powder company, one of the
largest and most promising industries
in this part of the state. will be moved
from Swanton and established in this
city during the present summer.
This important change in location
has been under consideration by the
management of the concern for some
time and it has just decided to make
the move, provided the right site for
a location of the plant could be had.
This has been secured by getting an
option on the Houghton lot. just across
the street and 70 the west of the Cen
trail Vermont railway car shops and
here the plant Will be installed.
The business of the company which
consists of the manufacture of a high
grade of smokeless powder. and the
production of the famous Robin
Hood shell and cartridges has been
developing fast. and although the bus
mess is worked to its full capacity
and 125 hands employed. it is impossl-
bic to mako the supply equal the de-
mand. Tho business was started sew
oral years ago on a svnall scale and
buildings were added as the increase
of the present plant consists of make
shift affairs. which the company. h,-
sides finding expensive to operate. mas
outgrown. These conditions make the
erection of new modern plant. an
| immediate necessity.
This city the home of the president II

and also of the general manager, Charles

ed and cheap electric power, with an ideal
site for the plant, alongside the Central
Vermont railway, which IS to build a track
to the companys works, makes for a con-
dition of affairs wurrantng the change in
| location.
The new plant will include three large
factory buildings, of steel frame work
and solid cement construction. and will 5e
absolutely freproof and when completely
| equipped with the necessary complement
of delicate and expensive machinery will
represent an outlay of nearly 100000,
| With the completion of this modern
plant, the concern will be in better posi-
ton than ever to make matters interesting
for the big powder trust, which 1t has
been Obliged to fight all these years.
This new industry for ST, Adams. COM
ing on the heels of the $4,000 condensed
cream factory which was started April
l. and the New Weldon House, and bring.
ing at least 10 additional workers into
the city, has filed the cup of happiness
OF St. Albanians to the brim
The powder mill proper will probably
remain in Swanton for sometime. The
company hopes to have its new plant in
complete operation before snow flies.
