The Chelsea Manufacturing company
has recently incorporated with a capital
stock of $4,000 for the purpose of buy
ing, owning, selling and manufacturing
wood and lumber in any form; manu-
featuring cattle stanchions, tool handles,
bobbins, and any and all kinds of wood
articles. The first meeting OF the stock
holders was held Saturday, July 81 at
which meeting the following directors
were elected: Il. II. Kennedy, S. G..
Wilson, and II. Z. Bixby, and at sub
sequent meeting of the directors the fol-
lowing officers were elected: President,
z. II. Kennedy; vice president and treas
urer, S. c. Wilson; clerk, II. Il. Bixby.
The company has secured control of the
patent awarded to Willard f. George,
the inventor of the perfect self locking
swivel stanchion, and has bought all the
machinery and equipment formerly used
by Mr.. George in the manufacture of the
Perfect stanchion and will push the
manufacture and sale of this stanchion,
which is universally conceded wherever
it is known to be the best selflocking
stanchion on the market to-day. Re-
pairs and changes are being made in Z.
H. Kennedy's lower mill, and the machin-
cry and stock of the new company is
being installed in this new location.
Mr.. George, the inventor of the Perfect
stanchion, will enter the employ of the
new company as shop manager and as
soon as the machinery is installed bust
ness will commence at once. This unique
device for tying cattle embraces simple
ity, safety, ease and comfort to the dumb
beast and will be sold at price which
is within the reach of every farmer and
stock raiser. The new company pro.
poses to sell direct to the consumer and
thus cut out the middleman's profit, anu
the purchasing public can feel assured
OF square deal every time under the
management of the above-named direct
crate.
