Remington Factory Is to Locate In Monticello.
The Superb Manufacturing Company, of Remington, has decided to move its headquarters to Monticello. The company has been operating at Remington for some time and meeting with unqualified success. The members of the company are Blanchard Emlore and Robert Burns. Mr. Elmore is well known for his hustling qualifications, and his. partner, Mr. Burns, has been connected with the Rumley people at South Bend for a number of years and has a wide knowledge of the manufacturing business. The company has been working a force of twenty men at Remington, but it is said with the increased room at Montftello they will employ many more than that. The factory specializes on shock absorbers for Ford cars, but makes other automobile accessories, including an automobile lifting truck in use in garages. Their shock absorbers find a ready sale and orders are being received from all parts of the United States and Canada. They have simply been swamped with orders and have not the room at Remington to propertly take care of the business.
