Some months ago we mentioned the purchase of a marl farm by Mr. Joshua E. Knechtel and now he has men at work laying the foundation for a large 3 story brick building in which he expects to be manufacturing Portland Cement by the beginning of next year. The marl is of the very best quality and the clay is also good so that the high- est grade of cement can be made. Joshua belongs to an enterprising family and we feel safe in predicting that in a few years hundreds of men will find employment in mz-inufactur. ing this article which is now being used so universally. The fact is again brought to our notice that! whereas with most peOple who are about to bring an industry into oper- ation, talk is srldom followed by action. It is difierent with the Knechtels.

On Saturday last about one o’clock in the afternoon a barrel con- taining ashes in the rear of the Mid- daugh House block was discovered to be blazing up and would have soon spread into the stable and wooden buildings near by, were it not notic- ed just in the nick of time. Had it occurred during the night the dam- age might be considerable, as there is sutficient material there to feed quite a fire. “ WHEN I go into a strange place.” said a gentleman to us a few days ago, " if I want to buy anything, I always make it a point to look at the local paper and find out the man who advertises.
