D. L. Mauch.

A splendid new business enterprise
has been added to commercial Charlottesville,
and it is one, from all present
indications that is bound to prove
a most successful venture. The concern
to which we have reference is
that conducted by Mr. D. L. Mauch
at No. 407 East Market street. Mr.
Mauch is a wholesale dealer in poultry
and eggs and his trade is increasing at
such a rate that he finds it difficult to
keep up with the demands; the business
having far surpassed his most
sanguine expectations. Mr. Mauch
pays the highest market prices and
has already contracted with some of
the largest poultry raisers in this section
and is rapidly extending his buying
province, though confining himself
to this section and expects to continue
to do so as long as he can procure
the grade and quantity he requires.
Each week Mr. Mauch ships
to Philadelphia a car load of eggs and
soon expects to double this quantity.
Mr. Mauch is well and favorably
known throughout the county as a
buyer, seller and shipper of apples, a
line of business which he has been engaged
in all his life. He is one of the
most prominent men in this line, all
his apples are shipped to Pittsburg.
He is a public spirited and progressive
citizen who is ever ready and willing
to lend a helping hand to any cause
that is for the welfare of old Charlottesville,
his home and the little city

in which he has cast his fortunes.
Mr. Mauch was born near Luray,
Page County. In Masonic circles he
is both popular and prominent.
