It Is learned on good authority that
the big mill plant of P. M. Ikeler, at
Moselle, will be worked at its full ca
pacity beginning about two
hence. This is one of the largest
mills in the state and has been in
partial operation all through the year.
The fact that this big mill, together
with many others, is getting ready to
run full time speaks more eloquently
than words of the return of prosper
ity. Nearly every mill in the Hatties
burg territory that is not now in oper
ation is getting ready to begin work at
full capacity.
