KEEP THIS INDUSTRY AT HOME.

We regret to learn that Bryant
Il Burton intend to sell their
planning mill plant, and more so
since finding out that several
parties are figuring on buying
and removing it from the Coun-
ty. This plant is badly needed
here in Columbia, and should be
bought and operated at by home
capitalists. Why not form a cor
poration and buy this plant and
continue to operate it this
place? The two planning mills
here we are informed have not
been able to take care of the
trade for the past two years,
and the building prospects for
the future for this and adjoining
counties are very bright. This
mill should not be moved from
Columbia. All that is needed is
just a little nerve and cash to
prevent it. This mill has been
in operation about three years
and under the management of
Edwin Hurt, who has had charge
of the plant. The firm has enjoy
ed prosperous business, which
has extended from BurkesviIle to
Lebanon, and has extended into
Green and Russell counties. Mr..
Hurt is regarded as one of
of the best machine men South
Louisville. The workman
ship on lumber put out by him
in this plant has been practically
perfect. Let us again suggest
that some of our own county
men buy this plant and continue
to operate it at the same place,
where nothing is necessary but
t. get up steam to keep the bust
ness going.
