          Delos Root, of Indianapolis, has purchased the Fairland grist mill, that has lain idle for so long and will at once put it in first-class order, having let the contract to  Geo. H. Reed.  Fairlanders should feel proud that the old vacant property is to turned into a place of activity and usefulness, thereby adding greatly to the business of that already busy little town.
