PLOW FIRMS TO COMBINE
Grand Detour Company Will Plant
Big Four in Omaha.
w. A. CHAPMAN TO BE MANAGER
Consolidated Concern May Occupy the
John DEERE Company Present
Quarters on Tenth street
AZ First.
w. A. CHAPMAN TO BE MANAGER

Plans are being worked out by President
Burton OF the Grand Detour Plow com-
pany for the organization of a house in
Oman similar to the one which he has
in Kansas City. to be known as the big
Four" and to handle farm implements and
vehicles.
As the Grand Detour Pillow company is
OF itself a big institution. the combination
which Mr.. Burton proposes to make In
Omaha promises another large implement
house which will take rank among the
strongest houses in the city. The business
done by Omaha houses in farm imple-
ments already exceeds si2.OOO,OO annually.
According to the present plans OF the
Grand Detour people w. A. Chapman. who
has been the loeol representative Of the
company. will be manager OF the oopbina-
ton which will be known as the Big -Four.
The company in Kansas City handles the
lines OF the Staver Buggy company and
the Thomas Manufacturing company. The
staver buggies are well known and at
present are handled by the Lininger I'm
plement company. Whether the Big -Four
in Omaha will consist of the same four
houses in Kansas City Is not known The
Thomas Manufacturing company Is one
Of the big manufacturer OF rakes. drills,
seeders and other farm implements. 1t is
said this company Will combine with the
Grand Detour people I'm making the Omaha
house as large as the Kansas City house.
Both Mr.. Chapman of the Grand Detour
company and F.. L Haller OF the Lninser
Implement company are out OF the city.
Other implement dealers who know OF
the proposed combination say It will mean
a big house for Omaha
At present the Grand Detour company
occupies offices and a small warehouse at
Ninth and Jackson streets. There Is talk
OF the new company taking the old John
Deere Pillow company building on Tenth
street. building the necessary additions and
using Il for the home Of the Big -Four.
