[The News-Sentinel, Rochester, Indiana, Friday, August 8, 1930] PETS WHOLESALE [Rochester, Indiana] WHOLESALE PET INDUSTRY LOCATED IN ROCHESTER Few people in Rochester are aware of the fact that this city can now boast of a new mailorder industry which is doing a thriving business, located at 1220 South Main street, in the exclusive residential section of this city. The owners of this business which is that of wholesaling birds, pets, etc., are Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Roderich, formerly of Michigan City. Since this business arrived in Rochester a little over five weeks ago there have been over 250 shipments of pets made out of this city, enroute to all parts of the United States. An interview with Mr. Roderich today disclosed that his heaviest run of business is made on canaries, parrots, love-birds, homing pigeons and rabbits. The canaries are imported from Germany while the parrots are received from southern Mexico. Roderich further stated that since he started in this business in June 1924 he has made a total of 2,200 shipments. The business is operated on an exclusive wholesaling basis and many individual buyers have been turned away since its establishment in Rochester.

E. Beyer and D. D. Ginther residences.

[Rochester Sentinel, Thursday, February 28, 1918] ELECTED VICE PRESIDENT Henry PFEIFFER of Logansport, formerly of this city, was elected first vice president of the National Poultry and Egg Dealers’ Association, when that body met in their annual convention in Chicago this week. [Rochester Sentinel, Wednesday, October 12, 1921] LOGANSPORT PRODUCE CO. SHOWS GROWTH In a recent issue of the Logansport Pharos-Tribune the following article was printed setting forth the acomplishments of Henry Pfeiffer, former resident of this city, as head of the Logansport Produce Company: “Quietly, almost imperceptibly, there has grown up in Logansport an institution and an industry that is the greatest thing of its kind in Indiana and it is doubtful if any of the adjoining states can surpass it. “This is the Logansport Produce Company, H. Pfeiffer president and treasurer, located at 554 and 556 Erie avenue, in the remodeled, rebuilt building at one time occupied by Wilson, Humphreys & Co., manufacturing stationers. “The magnitude of this building, the entire four floors of which are occupied by the Logansport Produce Company, can be seen in the fact that the two top floors are 60 x 150 feet, the first and second floors are 60 x 110 feet, and back of the fourth floor, converging upon the hill at the rear, is a receiving room 40 x 50 feet. Every inch of this space is intensively utilized in the processes of receiving, preparing and shipping the products of the plant. “The major product of the Logansport Produce Comany is milk, feed, poultry and eggs, which are closely allied to the poultry business. “Mr. Pfeiffer has prepared for further increase in business and controls frontage on Erie avenue of 240 feet, including the brick building formerly occupied by the Obenchain-Boyer Chemical Engine works and as this is needed it will be utilized. Mr. Pfeiffer has a wide reputation as an expert in his particular line and he is pretty proud of the institution he has developed in Logansport. He has interests in Monticello and Galena, Ill., but the plant at Logansport is the headquarters of the business under his personal charge.” [Rochester Sentinel, Thursday November 3, 1921] HENRY PFEIFFER IS ELECTED PRESIDENT Henry Pfeiffer, of Logansport, and formerly a resident of this city, who has been associated with the poultry, butter and egg business for many years, was elected president of the National Butter, Egg and Poultry Association in convention at Chicago on Tuesday, according to word received in this city. Mr. Pfeiffer also holds the presidency of the state produce organization and was formerly a director of the national association. This is the first time a western man has held the presidency of the national association for many years and is considered a great honor [Rochester Sentinel, Wednesday, October 18, 1922] HENRY PFEIFFER DIED FOLLOWING ATTACK OF HEART Henry PFEIFFER, 57, who gained the respect and admiration of the citizens of this community during his many years of residence in Rochester during which time he was associated with the BEYER BROTHERS poultry interests as general manager, died at 4:30 o’clock Saturday afternoon at his home, 136 Eel street, Logansport, following a sudden heart attack. Mr. Pfeiffer has been in ill health for a number of months and he became stricken with a severe attack of jaundice, which is believed to have been aggravated by financial reverses when, immediately after he first was confined to his bed with the illness, his condition grew worse until last week, when he appeared to be slightly improved. Thursday evening he suffered a relapse and
