THE NEW THE MILL.

We are glad to bo able to state that there will soon be no occasion for farmers and others to send out of The county for their draining and sewer tile. When the extensive additions and alterations to M. G. Stackhouse’s big tile works, north of town, are completed, that factory, together with that of John Kohler, west of town, will be able, probably, to supply the entire home demand. Mr. Stackhouse is spending a large sum of money and fitting up his factory in excellent shape. He already has 100 feet of new shed room constructed, a new and improved crusher in position, and a 40 horsepower engine upon the way. He expects to begin making tile of all sizes in a short time.
