WEIRS TO BUILD
NEW MODERN PLANT
FOR THEIR LAUNDRY
AT SECOND 8 FERRY
Construction to Begin in Few
Days and Building Ready
for Occupancy by August

TO BE BEST IN VALLEY
Building Will Be Most Mod
ern in State Outside of
Portland and Include Many
Conveniences
Announcement was made this morn
ing by E. L. and C. H. Wieder that
the contract for the construction of
a new building for the Magnolia-Al
bany Steam Laundry wiil be let at
once and the work on the building will
start immediately. The lota on the
corner of Second and Ferry streets
belonging to Dr. W. R. Bilyeu. on
which now stand the b-iilding occupied
by Henry Suesens, the old Oregon
Market, the old library brjlding and
the vacant lot adjoining, have been
rut-chased, as well as the lot and
building formerly occupied by the G.
A. R.. owned by Dr. C. V. Littler.
This gives a quarter block 72 by 72
feet, from the corner to the alley.
The building will be of brick, one
story in height and architecturally it
will be an adornment to the property.
It will be modern in every particular
and arranged so that it will be the
mosf eonvenietft and" optodate plant in
the state oatside of Portland. The in
vestment totals over $25,000. Plans
were drawn by A. C. Jenkins.
The adjacent property will probably
e further improved by wrecking the
Id. unsightly buildings now standing
.nd the appearance of that neighbor
hood will be improved in general.
Some additions will b mode to the
already modern enuirment of the
nlant. A new feature will be the heat-
ng of all the machinery by steam. The
old process requires gas for heating
the ironing machines. But no fire
will be kept in the main bi'ilding. The
boiler room will be in a brick building
in the rear, making the plant abso
lutely fireproof.
It is expected that the plant will be
ready for occupancy by August 15.
The local laundry is now doing much
work for surrounding towns and with
ita new equipment will be able to in
crease its output in this respect.
The proprietors are awake to the
future possibilities of Albany and are
showing their faith by setting an ex
ample for progressivenesa and going
ahead with betterments before busi-
nesa conditions actually press them
into it
