                     FLOUR MILL FOR TENNILE
                        1 OCTOBER 1900
     A movement is on foot to build a patent  flour mill in Tennille. It is one
of he needs of the county, in fact, of this section, as there is no enterprise
of this kind nearer than Wrens. When it is considered that most of the wheat
raised in this county is sent to that place for milling it emphasizes the
necessity of the establishment of the mill. Nothing is calculated to so
stimulate trade as the establishment of the mill. Already this season over 5,000
bushels of wheat have been shipped away from here. Another argument in behalf of
the mill is the fact that the milling now done is not of the very best kind. It
is proposed to put in the latest,patented machine which will turn out a better
grade of flour.At present the wheat is, to great extent, only mashed by the old
stone arrangement. The new roller mill will do the work by a pressing process
and better results are sure to follow. MAny thousands of dollars have been put
into circulation in other places in the past which should have found their way
into the coffers of the business men of the town.
