Heffner Mills

On last Monday, a big transaction was completed in the sale of the
HEFFNER Mills in this city to the Philadelphia firm of SHAW Bros. and
WILSON. The New company is said to own some ten or a dozen mills
scattered over the United States.  The new firm will take hold soon, it
is said.

The HEFFNER family has been known in the milling and grain elevator
business in this county for over a half century.  William and H. R.
HEFFNER started in the grain business in 1871 in Fairfield county.

William HEFFNER sold his interest to E.. W. SCOTT and with Christian
SCHWARTZ bought the cottage mill of David MILLER on Canal street in
1874.  The SCHWARTZ interest was later purchased by H. R. HEFFNER in
1877.   In 1882 James REICHELDERFER was admitted as a partner.

In 1887 Harvey S. HEFFNER, a son of William HEFFNER purchased an
interest.  The firm name then became HEFFNER & Co., and the Sagamore
mill on Canal street was built.  It was destroyed by fire in 1896.  The
firm then rented the Circleville grain elevator.  Later purchasing it of
Alexander BELL, July 1, 1897, James REICHELDERFER's interest was
purchased by W. F. and H. S. HEFFNER, sons of William HEFFNER.  August
17, 1897 they purchased the ground at the corner of Mill and Clinton
streets and February 13, 1898 commenced the construction of the mill
just sold.

Thad Has Faith

Thad R. MCLAIN who has been a picturesque traveling salesman of this
section for many years, will quit the road in a short time to give his
whole attention to his company's oil interests in Texas.  The company is
now capitalized at $300,00 and evidently means business along
Rockefeller lines.  Here's hoping the boys may all strike it rich.
