Marling builds itself a new home
In it’s 83-year history in Janesville, Marling Lumber has never been the go-to place for olive dip or ladybug cookies.
But the dip, the cookies and more will be regularly available starting Saturday when Marling opens its 17,000-square-foot HomeWorks showroom to the public.
Founded in 1904 in Madison, Marling has spent the last two years and $2 million transforming the former Wolohan Lumber operation at 1123 Humes Road into an elaborate showroom of displays on all things home remodeling.

Definitely the wrong word. But maybe he was quoting somebody.

Not that it's very significant, but truth is incorrect, and heesen's correct. "It's" means "it is" or "it has." The usage in this story should be "its." See "It's versus "its" on http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/

No, I think the journalist actually has it correct.

It beats me how a journalist doesn't know simple punctuation. "It's" (with an apostrophe) is not possessive; it's a contraction for "it is."
