Baldwin Piano Plant Completed 



The new Baldwin Piano Company plant at Eden Park 

 Entrance and Gilbert avenue, Cincinnati, O., has been 

 completed. During the erection of the new plant the 

 factory continued in operation in the old building. The 

 mechanical and office force is now occupying the new 

 building and the old plant, which adjoins it, is being torn 

 down, preparatory to building the second addition. When 

 completed the new Baldwin Piano Company plant, from a 

 standpoint of utility and beauty, will be one of the most 

 complete in the Middle West. A feature of the new 

 plant is its modern lumber yard. 



Morgan, formerly night watchman at the Talge Mahogany 

 Company plant, Indianapolis, Ind., pleaded not guilty to 

 arson. He is charged with having set fire to the plant 

 about a month ago. He was returned to jail to await trial 

 in default of $10,000 bond. Police say Morgan con- 

 fessed to them that he set the plant on fire, which resulted 

 in a $150,000 loss, because he was overworked and 

 thought a small fire would cause the company to give 

 him more help. 



Hoosier farmers are being urged by the state forester 

 to plant large numbers of walnut trees. He is being aided 

 by farmers' organizations and the ultimate aim is to have 

 most of the roadways of the state lined with walnut trees.

 retorts, and the main output of the plant will be for the 

 Parfrey cheese box factory at Richland Center, Wis., and 

 the Phoenix Printing Company of Milwaukee. 



The Lakeside Veneer Mills has been incorporated un- 

 der the laws of Florida, and will operate a plant at or near 

 Orlando, Fla. The capital stock is $50,000 and the 

 officers are Lawrence Gentile, president; A. S. Reed, 

 vice-president; W. A- Blackman, treasurer, and V. B.

The headquarters of the Murphy Chair Company are to 

 be located at Owensboro, Ky., according to an announce- 

 ment recently made by members of the company. The 

 company a short time ago sold its plant in Detroit but re- 

 tained its Owensboro factory, which is now being op- 

 erated steadily. 



There is a rumor abroad in Europe to the effect that 

 the Bolsheviks have entered into agreement for the export 

 to England and Scandinavia of timber representing a 

 value of £8,000,000, and also that the British govern- 

 ment has purchased from the Soviet party one million 

 railway sleepers.
