THE DAILY GATE CITY
The Warsaw Gate CITY
Warsaw, ILL.,, Dec. Is, 1913.

Wednesday was pay day at the but
ton factory, the pay roll for the week
being s1,4T609, one OF the best weeks
since the factory started. Manager
Schram is having new benches put in
saw is largely indebted to Mr. Schram
for his many gifts of shell refuse for
street paving; he also sells the refuse
very low, only SOC per ton, which
makes 1t available for private parties.
Some few auto drivers complain that
the shells nick their tires, but, If the
shells are spread thinly on solid
bottom, and then covered with enough
sand or fine gravel to bind them, they
will shortly make road smoother
and harder than macadam, and one
that will wear longer, bearing constant
traffic from heavy loads. The famous
old shell road from New Orleans out
to Lake Ponchatrain is proof of what
known, these shells make excellent
chicken grit which is always in great
demand. There is an opening here
for some enterprising man to start a
factory for it's manufacture.
