LOT SALES REACH NEARLY 200.

The sale of lots in the factory addition to provide funds for locating of manufacturing plants in Rensselaer, had reached 192 yesterday .morning, we were informed. Several who had agreed to take one lot heretofore, doubled their subscription Thursday to help the thing along, and will now take two. Some new subscribers were also added to the list. Any who have not subscribed for a lot are invited to do so at once,* as the sale will probably close in a few days. " Monticello closed their campaign Wednesday night with only $7,300 raised by lot sale. But the high school and business men raised enough more to assure them an automobile truck factory.
