The company will manufacture radi-
tors and furnaces by special process

Mr.. Holland is interested in plant
in Indiana and came up to look over
sites in the northwest with view
to locating a branch concern. He was
induced to stop off at Sauk Centre.
He liked the location SO well that he
laid the matter before business men
OF the city who were quick to see the
of another manufacturing
plant here. The city council was
called together, the plan laid before
them and committee consisting OF
]. F. Cooper, O.. H. Schleusener and
Ed. Buck appointed to look over the
mother plant. These gentlemen visit
ed the Indiana plant, made a thorough
inspection and on their return made sc
favorable report that the business
men of the city took hold of the pro-
ject and made go of it.
At a mass meeting held in the city
hall on Thursday evening of last week
the committee submitted its report
and the capital stock of $4,000 was
all taken up in a short time. Mr..
Holland invests $25, 600. So the entire
capital stock is in hand.
