CAN COMPLETE STREET WORK

Rock Win Be Available and Contractor Should Get Busy. While in Monon on other business Wednesday. W. S. Parks took occasion to enquire as to whether the Monon stone crushing plant would operate this year, it having been announced some time ago that the plant had closed down until the war was over on account of being unable to secure cars for shipping its product. The company has been assured that cars will be made available for completing unfinished road contracts, etc., it is said, and it is now making preparations to start up again. This will be good news to Rensselaer, where several street contracts are partially completed but were stopped on account of the contractor being unable to secure crushed stone. The contractor should now be notified to get busy as soon as possible and complete this work.
