"The Canton-Hughes Pump Company had been in business for a number of years at Canton, Ohio, and moved to Wooster in October, 1911.

This Company builds a full and complete line of Steam Pumping Machinery Manufacturing consisting of Air Compressors, Automatic Feed Pumps and Receivers, Duplex Boiler Feed Pumps, Single and Compound Duplex Pumps, Hydraulic Pumps, Water Works Pumps and various other styles of Pumps.
They have a very good reputation as pump builders, and their product is shipped to every state in the Union as well as to almost every foreign country. They but recently shipped a number of pumps to Australia. Recent installation of Water Works Pumps have been made at Marine City, Birmingham and Dowagiac, Mich., Findlay and Painesville, Ohio, Union City, Ind. and Marshall, Ill.

This deal, which as many people in Wooster know, has been under way for a long time. The Board of Trade has been dickering with this company for almost two years, but about a month ago it was rumored that the deal had been closed. For a time it seemed a matter of only a few hours until everything would be done, but the final settlement was not made, and a little later on, the deal seemed on the point of falling through altogether.

The Board of Trade agrees to pay the company a bonus of $30,000 to bring the factory to Wooster. A very small portion, if any, of this money is to be raised by soliciting among the merchants. The Board of Trade invested the $17,500, minus the costs, obtained from the [[Pococks Glass Works|Glass Works]] after a long contest in the courts, in real estate, and this land will be allotted, the lots sold, and the proceeds applied to the fund to bring the factory here.

The pump manufacturing and repair department of the [[Woodard Machine Company|Woodard Machine company]], being that part of the business that was acquired from the [[Canton Hughes Pump Company, The|Canton-Hughes Pump company]], has been purchased by the Chalmers Pump & Manufacturing company of Lima.
The company obtained the patents, drawings and records of the old pump company, no equipment going with it, and will succeed to the trade that was kept alive by the Woodard company since it took over the pump plant and business, consisting of much repair work. The Woodard company did not care to operate a pump manufacturing and repair business with its other large machine trade. The Chalmers company, which is a New York corporation, has been much interested in the pump branch of the plant here ever since Receiver W. H. Hughes disposed of the property here to the Woodard company. Transfer of the business to Lima takes no men from here.
