For those who went away the open ing of the furnaces will be mßch like a "homecoming" celebration. Will Manufacture Speiglc The furnaces, according to expec tations. will be "blown in" shortly after January 1, 1916, and between fifty and seventy-five men will be given employment. In the beginning the company will manufacture the same FRIDAY EVENING, j grade of pig iron it produced before the plant shut down because of a quantity of stock still on hand. Within a few weeks, however, this product will bo done away with and speigle will be manufactured. This product is one of the substances used in the manufacture of high-grade steel. ' The company's output of pig iron when the plant is reopened will be between 75 and 100 tons per day. The output of speigle will, It is understood, be much le.«s than this, inasmuch as it is more difficult" to produce and takes a much longer period to manufacture. The company Is understood to be con templating the enlargement of the plant soon after it is put in operation. If this is done, then there will be em ployment for many more men. The Juuiata Furnace and Foundry | Company's plant was first operated about 1870 and there are men who will return to work next month who worked at the plant a few years after it was first opened. Among these are Amos Smith, Tlieophilits Nelman, George Myers and John H. Gable. Mr. Myers Is conceded to be the oldest em ploye. He started to work about 1875. Others Work Full Time All of the other tlvd industries In Newport are working full time just now and producing big outputs. The Quality Shirt Company, a concern which manufactures men's shirts, has so many orders on hand that the man agement has been obliged to refuse a number of new orders. At present there are sixty persons employed, I mostly girls. More help is needed and ■ 1 tlic company will take all tlio girla It HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH can get. The factory's output is about LOO dozens per day. Sixty-one ma chines are in operation Just now. The shirts are cut out in New York and the parts are then shipped to Newport to be sewed together. Buttonholes are also made here and the buttons are placed. When the shirts leave here they are finished ready for the stores. The Newport Tannery, a branch of the Elk Tanning Company, of Rldg way, is another important industry here, ghing employment to almost a hundred men. Hides are sent here from the cattle markets to be tanned and transformed into leather and it .Is said that many of the hides tanned in Newport in recent months have been made into harness now being used on 1 horses on the battlefields of Europe. Tlia o«ik i£xu&ct Company, a. slioit distance from the tannery, produces an acid necessary in the tanning of hides. This acid is procured from wood and the plant has caused many men throughout Perry county to get employment as wood choppers. Hun drods of trees have been felled, split and then hauled into Newport. The company takes all of the loads of wood It can got, but still it complains that there is not more. The scarcity is due to the desire of many farmers to cut their trees themselves and thus make all the profit. In the summer months they work in their fields, but in the winter, when there is little to do, they decide to make some extra money by cutting down trees. Perry county alone is not able to supply sufficient timber, so shipments are made from 200 mile* Uom fcer*. Xlie cum DECEMBER 17, 1915. pany at present, with a force of fifty men, purduces 100 barrels of acid a day. This is shipped in tank cars to tanneries ordering the fluid. The local concern Is a branch of the American Oak Leather Company, of Cincinnati. Two Stocking Factories Two stocking factories complete the number of industries in this borough. The H. A. Itomberger Stocking Fac tory is the largest and employs about 110 persons, most of whom are girls. Stockings ror women, children and men are manufactured and it is not unlikely that many of the short hose for men are being worn by soldiers in the trenches In war-ridden Europe. A good percentage of the output ot the local concern is sent to Europe and recently a number of big shipments were wade to cities which are iu tliQ. heart of the war zone. The E. O. Smith Hosiery Mills em ploys about twenty girls in the manu facture of stocking feet Some men's hose arc also produced. The plant was established at>out four years ago and recently has been enjoying much prosperity. This plant produces about 200 dozen pairs of feet dally and ships them to all parts of the country. Both of the stocking factories do their own dycVig, but they have ex perienced little difficulty in getting a sufficient quantity of dyestufTs to keep them running. However, they have not had more thnn they wanted. Altogether all of Newport's Indus tries are busy and the residents of this Perry county town are happy. Busi ness conditions are Improving and the outlook lot the town's future la bright.
