To Build at Parkersburg.

 

The erection of the new 12-kiln electric porcelain plant, to be built at Parkersburg, W. Va., by the General Electric Porcelain Co. of East Liverpool, will be started next week.

The plant, it is said, will cost approximately $50,000. Although it is to accommodate but twelve kilns at the present time, it is to be so constructed as to be added to later and the capacity doubled.

The contract for the brick work on the new manufacturing plant has been let to David Wallace, while the Potters Lumber Co., also of East Liverpool, has received the contract for supplying all lumber and doing all the carpenter work on the new building.
