BUSINESS & MANUFACTURING Stephenson County |
|
The Freeport Wholesale Notion Company, which has just been granted a license to do business by Secretary of State Dement, has a paid up capital stock of $125,000. The charter members of the company are Messrs. L. Z. Farwell, W. W. Moore, W. F. Brown, W. W. Smythe, C. W. Harden and R. T. Yates. THe business which Mr. Farwell has so successfully conducted for many years will be continued and enlarged whenever it is thought best. All the men who are associated with Mr. Farwell in this company have been with him for a long time. Mr. Brown, however, has been in other business for a few years past, but he sees 'millions in it" and willingly comes back to his old head-quarters, continuing at the same time his other business as before. There is no doubt of the success of this new company.
