Our local mill has hud to add additional ma chinery as well as work over time and we have a clipping from the Batidon Recorder showing that their woolen mill too has Iieen able to get their share of Eastern Business. The clipp ing follows; This week the Bandon Woolen Mills started an $80,000 order tor a Detroit firm ami the mill will he run at full capacity until it is com pleted. Manager Bedillinn stated to a representative of »his paper Wednes day that it might be necessary to run at night part of the time so that this large order, together with other small er ones might be finished by .lime I, 1000. The woolen mill has enough orders ahead to keep it running at full blast for a year it least, and if business conditions open up in the east, as they nppe.ii *o be nt pri -Hint, »h re will Siii-ii h > Mith lei. .
