ONE OF TOWANDA'S INDUSTRIES—THE
EAGLE FLOURING MILLS,
I
Very few of our citizens are aware of the j
fact that we have in our midst one of the best
equipped flouring mills in northern Pennsyl
vania. We refer to the steam mill erect
cd by Col. MASON in the First Ward ten
years ngo when everything was 44 booming,''
but which has been lving idle for a numner
I
of years. Last fall the property fell into the
hands of G. A. DAYTON & Co. (GEORGE A.
DAYTON and BHNJ. KUYKFNDALL), who im
mediately set. to work to overhaul the estab
lishment preparatory to starting up. The
engine and boiler were thoroughly repaired,
the engine room enlarged to nearly double its
original size, every piece of disabled machin
ery replaced by new, the old 4> bolts" discard
ed and better and improved ones put in, and
a new run of stones added. AH this required
months of patient work and the expenditure
of a large sum of money. At last the steam
was turned on and the machinery wnich had
so long been silent, 44 moved like a thing of
life." But a short trial demonstrated that
the wheat cleaning apparatus did not leave
the grain in as good condition as they desired,
so the very best and most perfect machine of
the kind made was ordered. They also dis
covered their water supply was inadequate
and a large well was sunk which affords thom j
an abundance now. 44 Having puttheir hands
to the plow," the indefatigable proprietors,
who personally superintended and directed
the improvements, determined to leave no
stone unturned until the object they had in
view was accomplished, namely, putting the
mill iu condition to successfully compete with
the best competing establishment in all this
section. That they have admirably succeed
ed is abundantly evidenced by the product
of their null..
On a recent visit to the establishment Mr.
DAYTON very kindly escorted us through the
different apart ments and explained the modus
operandi of manufacturing flour, meal, feed
&c. We were most agreeably surprised to
notice how smoothly everything was running
and what proportions the business lias al
ready assumed. All the available room in the
vicinity of the mill was occupied with teams i
of country people who had brought grists to
he ground, as it has got whispered about that
the mill is not only doing excellent work buj
that customers are promptly served and re
ceive full weight..
Mr. DAYTON informed us that so far they
had been kept very busy with custom work
and had been unable to do much flouring
for the trade; the few orders they had filled
gave excellent satisfaction and the dealers
had duplicated their bills. He has no doubt
they will find ready sale for all they can man
ufacture.
The mill lias a capacity ol' ten to twelve
hundred bushels in twenty-four hours. We
found stored in the bins some 2.000 bushels
af wheat 1500 of corn, 1000 of oats and a
quantity of buckwheat. During the season
ihcy shipped about 150 tons of buckwheat
flour.
The firm buy all kinds of grain and pay the
highest market price in cash. They own in
the neighborhood of 5000 which hold in
the aggregate ten thousand bushels of grain.
The head miller is ANDREW D. FORBES
and his assistant JAS. C. FORBES, both gen
tlemen of large experience and reliability,
whose past sucoess is an earnest of their skill.
We have said this much about one of the
most important of our home industries sim
ply to call attention to the importance and
duty of encouraging the establishment of
manufactories among us. The position of
Towanda as the capital of one of the first
counties in the commonwealth, in the centre
of a fcrtiie agricultural district, should at
tract capital and call hither skilled labor. If
we desire continued growth and prosperity
we must foster enterprises and encourage
the intellignent, thrifty and enterprising to
make their abode with us. Our people arc
loyul to their town and its best interests.—
They only need that their attention be direct
cd to their dutv in these matters.
One wny to afford G. A. DAYTON & CO.
substantial evidence that their enterprise,
public spirit and large outlay of capital arc
appreciated is by patronizing them. When
you purchase get it from them.
