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,

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
