The Alma Record Company offers a large clear well printed map of Gratiot county. It is handy for reference and shows the name of every landowner in the county along with other points of interest.
An early Alma merchant, among the town’s oldest, notes steady growth in his bus receipts year after year, signaling rising business activity and demand in the local transport or trade scene.
The Record portrays Max E Pollasky as Alma's early driving merchant, starting as a traveling salesman and later building a comprehensive dry goods and shoe store. He merged retail with home industry support, linking shops, expanding to a full line of dry goods, carpets, cloaks, dress goods, and robes, and pledging customer value with a full money back guarantee.
Improvements completed at Michigan's Model Sugar Factory showcase summer upgrades. Wenge receives beet delivery Monday as plant reports steady progress and boosted production plans.
Alma Sugar Co advances its beet sugar operation with the Nwendet diffusion, larger vacuum pans, sharper beet slicer knives, and a 1 200 barrel sugar bin to speed production, increase purity and storage, and enable same day barreling. New automatic weighing aids loading and car deliveries. Loosened storage moves to fourth floor with upgraded lime kiln and rebuilt pulp drier furnaces.
A pulp industry update notes a new packing and sacking machine in the pulp drier, a 210 foot warehouse Hix built with a direct side track for loading dried pulp cars, and weighing stations established in several towns this year to aid farmers in delivering boats, with expectations of improved efficiency.
