FINEST OF MILLS.
Experts So Pronounce WiIiiarnsviIle
 Plant in It's New Equipment.

That the plant of the Killingly Man. ufacturing company at Williamsville is to be one of the finest in Killingby is the opinion of all of the many mill men who have visited it since the great improvements have been made there. One expert, after his examina- tion of the property. proclaimed it not to have single manufacturing disad- vantage.
 The interior of the mill is innnacu- late in its dress of new paint and with new floors upon which quantities of new machinery are being trundled to the positions that they are to occupy. The picker, carder, rowing and other machinery that has been purchased is the last word in textile types. A millman who inspected it Friday pro- claimed 1t to be as fine as he had ever seen. The company will be able to compete with the most modern of mills.
 Heterogeneous of the shaftine as planned by the company's engineer is expected to effect a 20 per cent. sav- ing over the 40 per cent. of the total power of the plant that formerly was held in the friction load.
 The work on the big new weave shed will begin next week This ad- olt1on at It's southern extremity will come within a very few feet of the dwellings on the north line of the com- pany's south village, but these can easily be moved back if necessary.
 A sample of cloth for which the con- pany now has a large order is being gotten out on the only loom that has been in operation at the mill for a long time. More looms will be started in A short time. long before the plant ia running to capacity
 The B. F. Smith company of Paw tucket has the contract for the con struction of the new weave shed.
