The wings are almost entirely covered, and the material is all ready to cover the main portion but owing to the weather, it is almost impossible to lay the brick for the outside walls. The work on the tank is being rapidly advanced, and it certainly will be ready for the crew by the middle of January. The whole building will be completed somewhere about the first of March...
