TRACTOR PLANT
Gets new SHOP
Stone e. Webster Company Starts
Work On Construction OF An
other Addition.

With an eye to increased produc-
ton the Moline Pillow company is
erecting another building at its
tractor plant in Rock Island. The
contract for the project has been
awarded to Stone & Webster and
actual work has been started. The
eastern contractors erected the
buildings which now house one of
the largest tractor plants in the
world.
The structure now in the course
of erection is in the nature of an ad
dition to the present buildings. 1t
is intended to provide greater load
ing facilities. 1t is to be one-story
affair with basement Outside di-
mansions will be 160x280 feet.
For some time there has been
more or less congestion at the trac-
tor plant and the additional floor
space to be provided by the new
building will go far towards solv-
ing problems.
While officials of the company
are reticent as to prophecies of fu-
ture business conditions. the fact
that they deem it advisable to make
extensive improvements at this
time can only be given an optimis-
tic Interpretation.
All the news all the time-The
