CARTER SELLS LIVERY BUSINESS
Whitaker & Co. to Secure the Title to
the SheriT's State Street Barn.

One of the largest livery stable deals
ever put through in northern Indiana
took place today noon when Sheriff
Fred Carter sold his born, located on
State street, to Henry Whitaker. The
consideration is not to be made public,
although it is known that Mr.. Whittak-
er paid a big sum for the business.
Mr. Whitaker. who also owns barn
on the corner of Holman and Indiana
avenue will consolidate the barns, max
ing one establishment that VIII be the
largest in northern Indiana
The deal has been under way for
some time and this noon the men came
together and when they did it only
took a few minutes to put the thing
through.
The new firm Will do business under
the name of Whitaker & Company. so
it looks as though there were other
men besides Mr.. Whitaker interested
in the transaction.
The reason Fred gives for selling is
that he is too busy with his official
duties as sheriff to look after his in
terests here, and as Whitaker made
him a pretty good offer. he thought he
would accept II.
The new firm intends buying several
new vehicles.

BED COMPANY To

May Be Secured to Provide
Local Market for Enter

George C. Locklin. the president of
the Enterprise Bed company, has been
working for some time to secure a con-
Germ for Hammond that will manufac-
ture iron beds.
The concern of which he is president
manufactures bed springs and is doing
a splendid business. However, it ap-
pears that it would be a distinct ad-
vantage to have live concern In the
city that would manufacture the beds,
too. and the products of the two con-
Germs could be marketed TO a better
advantage.
It is said that a company has been
selected that can be induced to locate
in this city and the deal may be closed
in a few weeks Mr.. Locklin IS out OF
the city today, presumably in the in
terests of this deal. although the local
officials of the concern would not ad-
NIT 1t.
The advantage of Hammond is that
small industries as well as large ones
are located here and the city Is nc
longer dependent upon one concern fol
