CANDY AND ICE CREAM
Factory to be Built by Well
Know Firm

The following is taken from the
Portland Press: This is the same
concern that owns the Brighton
Creamery. of which E. M. Bartlett
is the local head.
"A five story building with a
Commercial street frontage of 62
feet is now in the process of con-
struction near the corner of Com
mercial and Maple streets for
Simmons & Hammond. When COM
pleted the structure will house a
plant which has no superior in the
New England States.
This new building is being erected
by the New England Cold Storage
Co., which is at the present time
also engaged in erecting its own big
cold storage plant, both of which are
expected to be completed and ready
for occupancy by the first OF April
next.
Much has been said of the cold
storage plant, how it will be equipped
to do a general cold storage business,
how it will arrange to care for
valuable furs by storing.them in big
vaults of low temperature, how it
will supply the wholesale houses
along Commercial street with re-
frigerationl and how it will, by
means of pipes under the street,
carry freezingly cold air to the plant
of the Portland Cold Storage Co. for
the freezing of its fish. But the
Simmons & Hammond plant is new
proposition and only ai.mention 'sshas
beer made of it. When it is COM
pleted and in full operation it will
have story worth telling, but just
now something of what is planned
for it is worth passing attention.
The building will be five stories
above the basement and every part
will be used by Simmons & Ham
mond. On the first floor will be the
ice cream freezing plant, a plant
that will be able to turn out ten gal
Ions of ice cream where it is able to
tern out but one in it's present estab-
lishment on Maple street. That
means something when one is told
that last year the company made and
disposed of $4,000 gallons of that
very popular dish. Last year that
concern increased its business i'm
mensely and has since made the
claim that it, could have doubled
that figure if it had had the facili-
ties and space for the business. 1t
is5expected that this new structure
will afford ample means for all this.
1t is planned to have the offices of
the company or. the street floor
while the four floors above will be
used in the manufacture of fancy

coal bearing formation, and the actual
coal area embracing about 1000 square
miles out of a total of 24,022 square
miles in the state.
