BOTTLING WORKS BUSY.

Traxler & Sprott Winning The Trade Of Henry County.

Traxler & Sprott, proprietors of the Mt. Pleasant Bottling Works, report a most unexpected rush of business. They have been at the bottling business but a short time, but already are simply unable to fill the orders that are coming in. They have been obliged to meet the competition of Burlington and Fairfield, but on account of the excellence of the goods, the firm has been able to displace outside makes and now has practically all of the Mt. Pleasant trade and a rapidly increasing share of the trade over the county. The remarkably pure water that is used there has been of the greatest benefit to the firm, as it produces a drink clear as crystal and entirely free from all sediment or impurities. They are working day and night to supply the Fourth of July orders and have been obliged to increase their force.
