Some of tho hol-Jins of the coin pany include forty acres of granilo laud lyiiiB south of Loatlne, on the South Fork In Val,loua coity. This granite after thotough test has proved to be equal in every way for monumental work of tho highest typo. It is capable of taking a po lish equal to the best. The cotn i pauy also has a niuuty-nlne year li-ase on a led.se vt blue marble, which by its composition is superior to the Vermont tumbles for monu mental work f.s well as building pur poses. Included in the company is tho business in La Grande known ii Past years as the A ermont Mnible & Granite Works, whic h Mr. Newell has conducted, and which will serve as the foundation for the business of tho new company. Examination of the hooks of the now company proves that they iTO already out of the experiment stage, having al ready booked many orders for largo monuments and their volume of business is on a steady increase. Among tiio new and improved fea tures of tho new company, besides their drawing and designing depart ment, will be that all carving, cut ting and lettering will be done with pneumatic tools which will assure the highest typo o! work. The po lisliing will be done wi'.h machinery, nnd their relations with firms in the t-.ist assure the latest designs and I ideas of work to be had at all times. Included in the articles of the In corporation are the rights to devolop water power and the directors are planning, to that end having plenty at their disposal. Electricity will be generated for lighting purposes. They hope to be able to begin rinarrying as soon as the roads per mit hauling.
