MILL
TO RUN NIGHTS
PLANT TO OPERATE NIGHT
AND DAY
Many Orders Cause Officers of
Company to Decide to Operate
Double Shift. Additional
Crew.

Z. The plant of the Excelsior Products
Company expects to operate night
and day beginning on the 18th of
the present month, according to in
formation reaching the Times. This
will almost double the crew and will
give the company pay roll of about
40 people, in additional to the men
employed in getting out material.
Increased business and a rush of
orders has caused this decision to
be made by the comany and addi-
tional machinery will be added to
take care of the increased produc-
ton.
The excelsior mill was started in
small way nearly two years ago
and this spring additional machinery
was added in order to produce ex-
celsior pads and since that time the
mill has operated steadily.
The plant is becoming an import
ant one and it is expected to grow.

Strange to say the weather has
been ideal. For years the weather
man has been mighty hard on the
Bayfield, County fair and in order to
break the hoodoo the fair officers de-
cided to cover the annual exhibition

this seemed to have had the desired
effect for the weather has been of
the best.

out par. Eleven towns are repre-
sented, namely, Barkksdale, Barnes,
Mason, Bayfield, community, Wash
burn, Oulu, Orienta, Port Wing,
Glover, Cable and Iron River. One
of the finest arranged displays is
that of the town of Barksdale, which
is catching the eye of everyone en-
tering the large exhibit hall. The
town of Mason also has fine dis
play, while the other towns exhibit
ing all have ercellent displays that
would be hard to beat.
The town displays occupy q space
through the center Of the building and
each space is filled to overfiowing.
Around the south side of the
building is the individual entries Of
agricultural products and these are
fine. On the north side of the build
ing is the display Of woman's work
and educational exhibits. This is
somewhat lighter than it was a year
ago.
The stock barns are well filled with
stock and exhibits have come from
all parts of the county. c. w. Van
Stone of the town of Bayview was
awarded first prize for his registered
Holstein yearling bull.
The poultry exhibit is about the
same size as last year.
The amusement part Of the pro-
gram has been we'll arranged and
includes a number of amatuer per-
formances put on by Bayfield, county
people, as we'll as the usual program
of horse races, with a base ball
tournament, and concession stunts
which ara distributed throughout the
fair grounds.
Today is Washburn- bayfield, day
