Flouring Mills on the Increase.

Indianapolis Journal: Mr. Nordyke, of the firm of Nordyke & Marmon, says that at no time in the history of the works have they been more busy, and one striking* feature of the situation is the large number of new mills which are being erected in this state, and the remodling of old mills which is going on. The new mills vary in capacity from seventy five to two hundred barrels per day. The company is now building two 125 barrel mills to go to Rensselaer, one 150 barrel mill for Montezuma, and a seventy five barrel mill for Cayuga. Among the mills m process of remodeling, one Is at Lafayette, another at Martinsville, and several other points were mentioned. Mr. Nordyke says every few years a tidal wave for building flouring mills passes over Indiana, and the experience is much the same as this year. Meantime their business in other states of the union and in fore ign countries is keeping pace with former years.
