ÍB M l— BBM W W M M & a M M I How Fortune Fares Amid Other Scenes L. P. Gilmore writes from Hughesville, Pennsylvania that while one has to hunt a long time to find a town the equal of Monmouth as a place in which to live, he is happily and prosperously located in the Pennsylvania burg. With a partner who is a graduate of an eastern technical school, Mr. Gil more bought out a modest woolen manufacturing plant and they are operating it with the former Mon mouth man in charge of the office and handling the selling end. Wool used is bought from farmers in that section. They handle only the product of fine wool sheep and pay 40 cents a pound for it. They 6ort, wash, dye, open, card, spin, warp, weave and prepare for the market. They use only virgin wool; no cot ton mixtures and no shoddy. He enclosed samples of their product, a black and white check, a red and black plaid and a black and white herring bone weave. These are woven 31J inches on the loom and shrunk to 28 inches. They retail at 85 and 90 cents per yard. They make batting, yarn, flan nels, socks, shirts and hope to add other lines soon. The mill is driven by water pow er and has electricity as an auxili ary. In these days of union scale and hours and regulations the small producer has better opportunity than has existed heretofore for many years. As in the country news paper where the worker turns bia hand to any part of the work, the man in the small woolen mill does likewise and need fear no competi tion. With a fourth of an acre of fine sandy loam for garden pur poses, a cow, forty chickens, a collie and two pigs, and his family about him. L. P. ought to be, and evi dently is, as harpy as a king. J. S. Prime writes from Chiloquin that he has located his family for the winter in Klamath Falls. When the Natron cut off is put through he expects Chiloqiun to become a metropolis. It will be a freight division point. What between box factories and saw mills and.highway work, and fishing and hunting ex cursions, life at Chiloquin is a con tinual round of work and pleasure. S.
