Pickle Factory Sure.

Mr. Blom, of the Keokuk Pickle Co , arrived at Thayer on Wednesday and proceeded at once to employ carpenters to erect the factory at Thayer. Mr. Blom expects to have the building erected within the next three weeks so as to enable the firm to construct the large pickle tanks therein. These tanks each hold one thousand bushels of pickles and the acreage expected from Shelby and Thayer and surrounding country will necessitate the construction of about thirty tanks. —Thayer-Shelby News.
