A NEW SALT BLOCK
FOR ,WINGHAM
Representatives of a Canadian Syn-
dicate were in town the latter part
of the week and stated that they had
a 99 -year lease on the salt well, and
purposed erecting a salt , block in
Winghaxn. as soon as conditions are
favorable for building. The new con-
cern will have a daily output of one
hundred tons, and will give employ-
ment 'to some thirty or forty hands.
It is stated that the machinery laid
down in Wingham wilt cost around
$100,000.
Winghani Salt always had a ready,
placeon the market so long as the
plant operated, a determining factor
in inducing the Syndicate to get con-
trol. While 'full facts are not made
public yet it is understood the new
block will be erected where railway
service from both lines will be ob-
tainable.
This is a good piece of news that
comes as a real Santa Claus gift at
this particular season of the year, and
the public will eagerly contemplate
material fulfilment of the well-found-
ed rumor.
