employment are planning: to come back
to Newport to again work at the plant
and when the furnaces are put in op
eration there will be much rejoicing.
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

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

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.
