Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 70, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 22 March 1913 — Thrift of Glasgow. [ARTICLE]

Thrift of Glasgow.

Glasgow sets a splendid example of thrift and enterprise to the other cities and towns of Great Britain. It does not even scorn to collect and sell its waste paper and to traffic in scrap iron, thus adding many hundreds a year to its exchequer. Its cleansing department does business with half the counties of Scotland. It owns nearly one thousand railroad cars, and does a wide range of business from bog reclaiming to market gardening and butchers' work. ;
