factory, mill and an auto repair shop

bay.

houses in that section.
That the work will begin within thir-
| ty days is also assured, and 1t VIII
mean much for the prosperity of TINS
section, and may also mean that we
are to have an aeroplane factory here
that may rival the Wright and Curtiss
factories. for Bently has under way an
aeroplane of his own design. and the
factory here is for its completion, and
if a success, which it is believed it will
be- for the building of others.
The mill will be for his own building
operations, which are to be carried on
with such prodigality and which it Is
said will mark the first of a big devel-
| opment. The auto repair garage or
| shop will also be a good one. The
| houses are to cost from $500 to $llOO
| each, and will be modern in every way.
