Editor Whi'o of tho Tldioute Sewn re cently paid a visit to tho thriving villiagn of Stowtown, Hickory township, and like others wlio have been there, seems to havo been sinitto.i wilh what ho saiv, as is shown by the following articlo in his last week's issue: "The newly rebuilt Wheeler A Dnsen bnry' mill at East Hickory will well re pay a visit by lovers of machinery and mechanics. It Is of tho latest band saw built with all the latest wrinkles and im provements for doing work last and eco nomically. The saw is twelve inches wide, has automatic tension and guides and hustles through a log of any size. A steam nigger, steam feed j roller frame for carrying oil' work from the saw ; au tomatic saws lor edging and slashing; a lath mill; a grimier for ehowing up tho refuse slashings to be fed under tho boil ers along with the sawdust; a carrier to run the surplus waste for bnriiingoutsido at a safe distaneo; tho usual apparatus for yanking logs out of tho pond; and a com plete tiling room, when the band saws are filed, brazed, stretched and gummed compriso only a part of this the most complete mill we over visited. "outside the mill building are brick boiler and engine houses. The former contains a battery of boilers fed with tho refuse and sawdust, brought by carriers to manholes, when It is shoveled into the arches. Tho engine house contains two engines, tho larger running tho band mill proper. Roth houses have all the modern appliances. It is fascinating to stand by and watch the different ma chines and appliances, some ol which seem almost human particularly that "nigger" a machine that places and turns the logs ou tho carriage just as tho sawyer desires. No cant hooks there. "In one respect the plant is peculiarly notoworthy, it being tho only mill per haps in Pcnnsylvania'capable of sawing long sthir. .Sovonty-two feet can bo turned out, and Messrs. Wheeler Jt Du senbury have not only tho mill to do it, but also the necessary longth of log to get It out. The enpacity of tho mill in a day's run has never yet been tested, but they are sawing about 25,000 feet log run, per day. "The factor of safety from liro is well provided in tho now system of water works. Throughout tho mill and sur rounding the big yard of lumber Is a chain of five hydrants with a pressure of soventy-five pounds, ready for Instant and immediate use. "All through and around tho mill is a big gr.ng of hustling men, who don't got much time to swap stories or plug tobac co. It is rush, rush, right along. But over iu the ofllee all is quite and comfort able, witli little cyidoncos of the hive of industry a stone's throw away. Mr. N. P. Wheelor, the tireless resident partner, spends most of his timo on the outside, but can icadily go into his private office if you have business. The olfice, how ever, is really Iu charge of Goo. W. War den, who not only looks after W. & D.'s business, but is also .Superintendent of tho Hickory Valley R. It. In his work he is assisted by G us B. Evans, a Tidi outo boy. Tho pair make a groat team with seemingly no limit to their capacity to keep from under tho load of business. And tho way they do it Is in the system of work perfected and carried out. "A great many improvements in the vicinity of tho mill have been mado and aro under way. New houses have been built, water works and lire protection atl'oidcd, and many other improvements added. Just now a uamo for the thriv ing burg is being discussed, Htowtown not seeming to meet the requirements. But a name it should have. Hut what? "As all know it is just a pleasant ilrivo from Tidiouto, and Mr. Wheeler or the "boys," busy as he aud they are, will find time to escort you through the mill in which they liud so much laudable pride. And it certuinly will repay a visit. "A new steel bridge across the river at West Hickory is this summer to replace the present worn out wood bridge, and bridge builders are now at work on the speciiicalious and estimates." The telephone line for Tiouesta is a settled tiling, and work will soon be commenced ou its erection. The arrangement that has heeu made with the company gives the people who have a telephone in tbeir house the privilege of talking wilh Titusville, Oil City aud Franklin from his owu residence, aud will certainly prove a great convenience to our people, aud we predict that afier a year's trial there will be many more who will have 'phones placed iu tbeir resi dence.
