A_ interested in the advancement of our "• 1 local fodustries will have been gratified '' ' I in noticing that owing to tho extension of -** business Messrs Hayward Bros, and Co AIS*"-?*?, manufactures of ti*> wtiHnMlwa ' 'fl Flag" brand of pickles, sauoe>, vinegar # etc., have recently completed the erection U of a very handsome brick buildmg aSoav tV. ing their old premises ia Peterboroueb. f•tf«t in this city. The front is faced * with white On.mn.ru stone, and tho interior §* wEI be used for manufacturing and packing % purposes. The main portion of the new ?• building is 128 ft by 70ft, and, with the old i*. buildings, tho firm will now have a total "v floor space of over 20,000 square feet. Ths & ground floor of tlie new building will ba f devoted to packing and storeroom pur- % poses, ond the upstairs portion to manu- "J, facturmg, botding, and packing purposes. t borne idea of tlie growth of the business "Wl earned on, by ii_srs Hayward Bros.'
