YALE'S INDUSTRIES,
THE MACHINE-SHOPS OF MKXEUKY
UllOS. AND FIIED. CUllUlKli. 0011 KEN
& YOUNG'S rUUMTUKE FACTOUY.
We have been six weeks in telling the
story of the industries in our thriving
village of Yale. We had hardly realiz
ed before the exteut of our business.
Hut now wo may be more able to com
prehend it. Far a village, whose age
hardly reaches a decade, our develop
ment has been wonderful. We sprung
upas it were in a night, but our lite
promises not to be proportionally brief.
Un the contrary we are growing with
a substantial development. Our differ
ent brandies of industry, though young,
still promise to attain considerable
dimensions. They are all substantial.
In addition to those we have already
mentioned there are still others which
we will mention in this article and with
it close this series. One of these is
MENintEY IJKOS' FOUNDRY.
The foundry itself is an old pioneer
in this locality. It was built in 1870 by
Ell'erick, Uurtrand and Smart. These
gentlemen ran it together for a while
and then sold to Smart. Smart after
wards sold back to Efferick & Uurtrand.
Then John D. (irinnell bought out Mr.
Uurtrand in 1880 and the foundry re
mained under the management of Elle
rick & (irinnell until 1885. At tbat
time John 1). (Irinnell purchased the
entire property and has run the found
ry ever since, up to within a few weeks
when it was renteu to Menerey JJros.,
the present managers. Under these
energetic gentlemen the business has
received a new impetus, and is now
busy in every corner. They have reen
gaged the molder, employed formerly
by John D. (.irinnell, Andrew Jackson,
and will continue that part of the busi
ness as -usual.
THE SHOPS.
Although the buildings are not very
commodious, they are fitted up with
every convenience for foundry work.
The moulding-room, however, is capa
cious, and capable of turning out all
sorts of mouldings. In addition there
is a blacksmith shop, over which the
Menerey IJrothers preside, and which
does a large business in general black
smithiug. Mr. John Uaxler has rented
a part of the building and will conduct
the wood-working part of the business.
THE rilODUCT.
The principle specialty of the concern
is the plow they make. Large numbers
of these are turned out annually and
distributed among the farmers through
out this section. A great number of
plow-points are also disposed of yearly.
Altogether, we may say, the concern is
a neucleus for a large implement manu
factory which we hope may rise in our
midst sometime in the future. The en
ergetic proprietors have our hearty sup
port and congratulation for their pres
ent success. However there is still an
other machine shop in the village which
makes considerable pretensions, and
promises .to be a factor in the busiuess
community. This is
cuhjuek's machine snor.
This shop was not built until last
July. But since that its business has
continually grown. It is fitted up with
every macliine for iron working; and
is admirably fitted to do all sorts of
work which may come within the
sphere of a machine-shop. Fred Cur
rier, the obliging proprietor, himself
sees to most of the work, and vouches
for its thoroughness. In connection
there is a well-equipped blacksmith
shop, over which John .Jardiue at pres
ent presides. .Mr. Currier's prospects
.are surely briglit, and to say the least,
the shop promises well for the village
in his hands.
THE FUltXlITUltE FACTOUY.
Coheen & Young have just built a
furniture factory" in connection with
their furniture store. The machinery
has been set up but for a few days, yet
they are now doing much work. They
have every thing in the wood-working
line, saws, lathes and planer, and at
present .are prepared to do anything in
custom-work, although they have not
yet begun on their regular work. They
intend to make all kinds of furniture
of the cheaper sort, as bedsteads, side
boards, milk-stands, tables, etc. Al
though it is early still to make prophe
sies, we are nevertheless confident that
under the management of its two ener
getic proprietors the establishment
will in time attain to considerable di
mensions. In such an industry there
is hardly any limit to the prominence
it may attain. We sincerely hope
Messrs. (Joheen and Young will find
our augury true. .

And now the greedy people of Fort

to make away with her daughter's
baby. She took it to Sarnia and placed
it on the door-step of James Lucas'
residence. However she became rat
tled and left her pocketbook in the
basket also. The pocketbook was soon
restored to her and a hint given that it
would be good for her to take care of
the baby.
Three more big damage suits are
docked for the term of the circuit
court. C. F. Farr vs. the city of Fort
Gratiot for injuries received while
driving on its streets, 10,000; the
friends of Matt Wilkie, of Clyde, who
was killed by being thrown out of a
wagon on the streets of Fort Huron,
against that city, and the relatives of
Joseph Watson against the bondsmen
of Morrison, the saloon-keeper.
