Mr. Martin left his home here a few weeks ago and, with his family, will spend the winter in the southern •late, where he has thus interested Jnmself in the above named concern. Edward S.

The company, in which the two •fcove named gentlemen are interested, has just ordered $16,000 worth of machinery ami equipment with which to install electric lights, running water and also an ice manufacturing plant. In addition to these they also have a cold storage plant and will also engage in other branches of business. According to a letter mailed us and written by Judge L. L. Hopkins for tile Marion county board of trade, the section around Belleview offers great inducements and gives promise of developing into a great country. The favorite crops grown there are corn, oats, sweet and Irish potatoes, peanuts, strawberries tomatoes, cabbage, cucumbers, beans, lettuce, watermelons, squash, cantaloupe, velvet beans, cow peas, grapes, pecans, peaches, pears, Japan persimmons and blackberries. All of the above bear fruit in abundance. , The judge's letter also goes into detail regarding the town itself and its improvements, but owing to the lack of space we are unable to print 1)11 of same.

The Standard company has been without a resident agent here since the resignation of A. A.

Mr. Fay has placed an order for a Ford truck, upon which will be mounted one of the company's tawlm The truck is to be fitted with pneumatic tires and, according to a statement made by representatives of that concern, this kind of truck is rapidly coming into use by a large percentage of Standard agents thruout the country. Their declaration is that the truck can be operated at a great deal less expense than the larger and heavier ones and a great deal better time can also be made on the road. Mr. Fay informed a Plaindealer reporter the first of the week that he will start out with but one truck, which, he stated, would be quite sufficient during the winter and early spring months.
