MILTON

! On fFluay dtteTHOOu, MAY 0tn, the
citizens of Milton will vote on the
question of borrowing 100000 with
which to erect a canning factory to
be operated by the Apte Brothers,
who have consented to operate the
plant for a term of five years. Such
an industry is badly needed in this
community, not only that it will fur
nish a market for the farmers, but
will give employment to more than
hundred men and women. OF
course there will be those who will
oppose the project from the selfish
standpoint that their taxes will be
increased. We are reliably inform
ed that taxes will be raised (if at
alb less than one per cent, hence
opposition to the plan from this
point of view is silly. There are
in all communities We suppose peo-
pie who have made their pile" or
have become listless an dgrouchy
with selfishness, and they are such
folks in Milton. Happily there are
enough up-and-doing citizens in
Milton to put this project over, pro-
vided they vote today friday.

vote and it is hoped that every one
of them will be on the JOB between
the hours of 200 and 400 o'clock p.
m. Think of the money to be derived
from such a plant, most of which
will be spent in the town; it will
mean warm clothing for many chill
dren, full stomachs for old and
young and bring independence to
the laborers of the town instead of
the humiliation of seeking aid from
the welfare commission next winter.
Vote and vote right.
