Another continuous flow dryer is included in the expansion plans Last year the company added six silos and a large receiving pit to their facilities. Harry F. Adamson, manager, said the expansion was necessary "because with the large crops of corn and beans grown in this area the business is here." He also stated the company hopes to give better service to farmers with the additional dry- er, and would be able to offer custom storage for the first time with the addition of the new silos. The contractor is Dorsser's Welding Company, and construct• ion will start as soon as the frost is out of the ground. Mr. Adamson said the silos should be completed by the middle of August, in time for the fall crops. Entertainment DASHWOOD HOTEL S1 T., FE. JOE OVE and MOZ GELINAS H LT county.
