HENRY CO. MILLING
AND ICE PLANT.
Preparations Actively Under
Way for New Enterprise in
McDonough at Once. Char
ter Applied For.
Even before the current is to
be turned on, the first direct re
result of advantages arising from
Dr. Smith’s power plant on Cotton
Indian river is already a reality.
In our advertising columns this
week appears an application for
charter for the Henry County
Milling and Ice Plant. As will be
seen, the company is composed
of Mr. J. J. Fisher, Mr. Fred Var
ner, and Dr. J. G. Smith. What
is known as the Upchurch brick
buildings in rear of the stores on
Macon street have been purchas
ed from Mr. Bail Elliott, and nec
essary preparations are already
being pushed to completion.
The mill is to be put into oper
ation as soon as the electric cur
rent is turned on, which Dr. Smith
states will certainly be some time
before Christmas. Then the ice
plant will follow in time for next
season, and the new enterprise
will be fully open for business.
Aside from the advantages of
mill products right at home, the

Friends of Major H. D. Russell,
known to hundreds of Butts
county friends as “Dick” Russell,
will be interested in the announce
ment that he has decided to iocate
in Macon for the practice of law.
Major Russell, who led the old
Jackson Rifles to the border, and
served with distinction through

is not a more efficient military man
in the state than Dozier Russell
and his friends wish him mighty
well in his new location.
Major Russell was in Jackson
Saturday and stated that he would
attend the reunion of the old
Jackson Rifles in Jackson on Fri
day, November 7, when a barbe
cue will be given the Butts county
soldiers at the fair grounds.
