To Secure a Big Cement Plant in the Village of Manchester

The people of Manchester have raised all but $350 to secure the big cement plant which is to locate there. The people to secure the plant to locate in that village instead of in Bridgewater were to take $25,000 in stock, to give a location for the plant and to secure the right of way for a railroad from the marl beds to the plant. The location and right of way foots up $3,450 and $3,100 has already been subscribed.

Beside the $25,000 stock required to be subscribed, Manchester citizens have taken $5,000 additional stock. The $25,000 stock is payable in installments only as as the work proceeds.

It is not many villages of the size of which can handle so big a proposition as this one has been.
