CYAN MILL TO START MONDAY
As Evidence of the Return to Normal of Business COndi- tions, Prescott's Largest In- dustry Resumes Operations.

' g
 Everyone who is an observer of general business conditions looked on the closing down ow the saw and blaming mill of the Ozan-G -Graysonia Lumber Company in southwest Pres colt as an indication of "hard times" as we are prone to call them, and likewise will the observer view the resuming of operations at this big mill on next Monday as the first sign of renewed business activity and a brighter commercial future for the city. The closing down of the saw and blaming mill of this company some months ago was an awful blow to the local business situation, be- cause as the leading industry of the city, hundreds were effected from the most menial laborer up to the leading banker, for reason of thf fact that the flow of money which began at the pay office of the com pany and ended at the banks of then city, ceased to be reality and was only a remembrance and many were thrown out of employment and natur- ally their spending ability was al- most nil.
 The resuming of the Ozan mill op- erations will greatly help the gen. eral morale of the city and surround ing territory and as aforesaid, is a pretty good sign that things are be- ginning to "loosen up," so to speak. May this be one of the signs that does not fail.
