Leesburg in which the following offer
is made:
in reference to our conversation

the proper support by the people OF
Leesburg and vicinity, we would build
a fertilizer mixing plant at LeesbIrg
desire to say in writing that this
plant will be built at Leesburg just as
soon as we are assured that the PEG
pie want it. What we desire more
than anything else is the cooperation
of the truckers and growers in and
around the territory such a plant
would serve. The way to get this CO
operation is for the people to invest
in our enterprise. While plant the
size of the plant we expect to build in
Leesburg would cost from thirty TO
forty thousand dollars, we will not
wait for this amount of money 10 be
raised by your people before com
mencing the plant, but just as soon
as there are subscriptions to our capi.
tai stock amounting to S1S,O0.00 to
500, 100000, we will commence building
the plant, for then we will be assured
of the cooperation that we SO much
desire.
"Of course you IN ierstand that the
stock subscribed for will participate
in the entire earnings of this company
We expect to have a complete acid
plant at a deepwater port which will
cost in round numbers million dol
lars, and expect to have branch mix
| ing plants located in several sections
of the south where much fertilizer is
used. We expect to own and operate
our own mines for phosphate, and e
do large exporting business in the
raw phosphate Those who own stock
in this corporation, will participate n
/ all the dividends derived from the en-
tire business.
1--WE feel assured that with the co
innovation of tha neoOie of Lesburg
and the territory which will be served
from Leesburg, we can get at least 9
full share Of the large tonnage OF fer
tilizers used in that territory. This
is why we are Offering the stock fol-

their friends, rather than sell the

Rev, ]. (. Brennan in Florida
 Recovering His Health
BUT LITTLE COAL IN TOWN
So the Advent of Nildcr Weather Is Hailed With Glec-.ActiviticS Of Grange to Continue-Othcr News Items About Town.

>Word has been received from Rev, J. C. Brennan, who has been takin g Treatment in Florida for several weeks, due to a general breakdown, that he will return North the early part of next week and may assume the duties of St. Paul's parish at once. The local pastor was granted a leave oS absence by Rt. Rev. John J. Nilar, bishop of Hartford diocese.
 During the absence of Father Brennan the work of the parish has been in charge of Rev. Francis Egan, of New Britain. Father Egan has proved popular and has conducted the business of the parish in capable manner. In addition to his work in St. PauFs church in kensington, he has conducted Sunday services in the Sacred Heart church in East Berlin. Father Egan was only recently or dained and the kensin gton church was his first assignment. As it is but a temporary assignment he will leave as soon as Father Brennan returns and will be sent to some other Con necticut parish.
 yWord of Father Brennan's recovery has been received with rejoicing by many friends, not only among his
  ances in other sects. He has been in x charge of the local parish since the present church building was erected and for a short time prior to the con struction of the edifice. It is believed his health has returned sufficiently to warrant his taking over the adminis- fation of the parish affairs without an assistant.
 Coal Shortage Here
