semer Ice and Coal company having purchased site fer new ice plant and the Southern Manufacturing company starting construction of a wood work ing plant. The ice company announced the purchase of five lots at Nineteenth street and Fifteenth avenue, where they will begin the erection of a new man. ufacturing plant this fall. The wood working plant has already started clear ing a site for their buildings at Sixth avenue and Ninth street.
 The Bessemer Ice and Coal company has recently completed erection of two distribution plants, one at Readers and the other at Sixth avenue and Nine teenth street. Due to the rapid develop ment of the northside, particularly at Hueytown and West Highlands, they have found it impractible to supply these stations from the old plant at Arlington avenue and Twenty-T Third street, and the new plant is to take care of the increased demand, and to supply the stations more economically. The Southern Manufacturing com pany will produce rough and finished lumber, spokes, barrels and small pat terms of all kinds. They purchased eleven lots at their location from the Bessemer Coal, Iron and Land company, through Brooks and Lewis, and will erect sev- eral buildings there. Charles Davis, well known lumberman, will be the president and general manager, and will later | plan to install machinery for finishing hardwood and other high class work.
