SHELBY STOVE COMPANY
-
-
Organized
Last Night in This City
-
- A
new factory was put on its feet in this city last night in the
organization of the
- Shelby
Stove Company which will manufacture the gasoline stove and oven
- patented
by Mr. Albaugh, of Mansfield.
-
- The
directors of the company are: Mr. Albaugh, J. Currie, H. W. Hildebrant,
C. E. Morris,
- G.
W. Deyarmon, W. W. Skiles and Dr. Love. The officers are: H.
W. Hildebrant, president;
- Mr.
Albaugh, vice president; and J. Currie, secretary and treasurer.
-
- The
stock is owned almost exclusively in this city, and the company
has made arrangements
- to
take the old Beecher Furnace works and add a two story brick,
50 X 150 this year. The factory
- will
give employment to a number of men.
-
- The
Albaugh stove and oven is an improvement on all others in that
line, in that it burns
- less
gasoline than any other and retains more of the heat, tests showing
that it will do in
- 20
minutes in the way of baking what it required another stove and
oven an hour to do.
-
- The
stoves will be manufactured in aluminum and black enamel and
will be placed on the
- market
as soon as possible. The stockholders are all enthusiastic over
the institution and
- think
it will be one of Shelby's largest factories in a few years.
