PRESCOTT'S DOOR HANGERS at L. D. WILSON & GO'S. X- ~ ~= 2ft 88 Directory of Ogden City and Weber County. scientific milling is going on, and the miller of to-day must combine the qualities of the father of Tennyson's "Miller s Daughter" with the practical mechanical knowledge of the engineer. Taking advantage of these facts Messrs. Stevens & Stone in building their mill have adopted what is known in the East as the "roller process," which has met with much favor among millers and by some is considered to be the best. The gentlemen are putting in a large amount of capital and it is to be hoped that their enterprise may be rewarded by practical pecuniary results. FARR'S WOOLEN MILLS. Fifteen years ago, the woolen mills of Lorin Farr & Son were started on the road to Ogden Canyon. Associated with the Messrs. Farr were Messrs. Randall, Pugsley & Neah A commodious stone building, with a brick wing and two frame buildings separate from the main works, afforded accommodations for the machinery to be used in the manufacture of woolen goods. Ample water power was obtained from the Ogden River by what is now known as Mill Creek, but in addition to the water power it has been found necessary to add a fine 40-horse- power boiler and engine, with which to run the machinery that was put in to meet the growing trade. In the present works there are 12 looms, 1 "Jack," with 350 spindles, 1 spinning mule, somewhat larger than the "Jack," 2 carding and 2 picking machines and one each of the shearing, washing, and scouring machines. Besides the above there is every convenience for the dying and other blanches of the extensive business, to which they are adding new machinery every day. The wool used in these mills is purchased principally from northern ranchers and the market for the manufactured goods is ie -y MARKS, GOLDSMITH & CO., COR. MAIN AND FOURTH.

We don't hear the song now and when we want a broom we generally go to the grocery store to buy it. Now for some ten years there has been an establishment in Ogden where the grocers went to buy their brooms. Mr. IT. B. Scoville, ten years ago, started the Ogden Broom Factory, and now has his wTorks in the same place, on Young Street between Fourth and Fifth Streets, as wThen he started. lie procures the best of broomcorn from Utah and Nebraska and with the best mechanical means that are known in the business turns out a superior article ot large, medium-sized, and small brooms and brushes. His market is through Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana, and by the superiority of his wTork he has thus far defied competition from the East. The production of the works is from 300 to 500 dozen per month. THE VINEGAR WORKS. In 1876, Frank Rother, started the Utah Vinegar Works, on what is known as Railroad Street near the freight depots. After some time Mr. Rother disposed of the works to Richards and Grant and while under their control the factory was destroyed by fire. It was rebuilt by Rother and E. II. Orth, and then the former disposed of his interest to C. W. Orth, since which time the works have been in the hands of the Messrs. Orth. In this business there is an opportunity offered for the purchase | of a pure home-made material at a cheaper cost than the imported vinegar can be bought for.
