IN ACTIVE OPERATION

Very few people in the city, outside of those directly interested, realize how great an industry the Waupaca Crushed Stone & Granite Company is. On Tuesday evening they paid their men for May, over $1,200 being disbursed, which amount will increase each month until the plant is run to its fullest capacity. In addition, more than $700 was paid out in the city for incidentals.

The company is making daily shipments of crushed stone to Chicago, and is now working upon an order for 200 carloads, which they are getting out at the rate of nearly five carloads a day, which is about half the capacity of the plant when under full sway.

The industry is a good thing for the city, and more of them would be welcome, particularly if they come as did this one, without asking any bonus or aid from the city.
