A Thing of Beauty.

THE JOURNAL received a copy of the new city directory this morning with the oompiiments of the author, Charles Emerson.

In reality it is not only a direotory of the city but of the county as well and no well regulated business can do without one. Mr, Emerson deserves the thanks of the community for his thus facilitat ng labor and showing the country just exactly what Crawfordsville is.

GRAIN AND GUM.

Two More af Crawlordsvilie's Industries 5 Which Deserve Spec.al Mention "1MHUNIX NO. 2

This is tho sign that meets tho eye when approaching tho m-'gnilinent now grain elov it or of Crabbs X- Reynolds. This name is very siguilioiont ami as its name implios is the second building that has arisen from the anlies under the mauagement of this enterprising firm. As might be exported their experience in building elevators enabled them to make improvements after ouch fire and Pheuix No. 2 now stands not only as tho finest elevator in Montgomery county but equal to any in ludianu. The elevator is so arrangod that grain con be handled either from railroad or farmers' wagons. It is provided with dumps for ooru, wheat and oafs. THUS making the unloading of grain so rapid and so easy that farmers never have to wait. Tho building is provided with the latest patterns of Fairbanks Standard soales throughout, including a one thousand bushel hopper. Also a full roller corn mill, and tho corn moal manufactured hero is tho best to be found anywhere and is far superior to the old stone prooe-s. The building iB also provided with facilities for handling 10 to 12 cars of corn and 10,000 bushels of wheat per day. The work is all done by machinery, graiu is tiken from the wagon, cleaned and put into the oar without the aid of the Bcoop shovel. The storage capacity is about 75,000 bushels inside of tho main building. Acorn house for storage of oar corn having a capacity of 10,000 bushels is located just north of the main buildiug. Tho com is elevated into this building from dumps thus avoiding all shoveling. A watchman's house stands nearby and a night watch is always on duty. This plant as a whole is a model of completeness and will well repay a trip to any ono interested in this lino of business. Tho business carried on Lore is the largest in central Indiana aud the amount of grain handled makes it possible for tiiis firm to handle it very cheaply. The firm of Crabbs & Reynolds is one of the leading firms of tho oity, employing from to 10 men.

Although the foroe is being constantly increased the orders are still three weeks behind. Ten men are now employed and two men to be added at once.
