Glass Plant a Sure Thing-Will Be In
Operation Before First of April.
NOT TO BE IN THB TRUST I
About Two Hundred Men to t Employed at
Start- Plant Will be Enlarged -Pay Roll
Four Thousand a Week.
It Is now a sum thing that a window
glass plant will be built here, and will be
In operation before the 1st of April, by
tho Star Glass Company, and one grand
thing about it Is that It Is to bo an In
dependent plant, It Is tied up so that it
cannot be sold out to a trust company
and this removes the danger of Its being
shut down by tho trust. Tho mon at
the head of the company helped start
the plant at Hazelhurst, which was sold
to the trust by capitalists who had tho
controlling interest, and this tlmo they
propose to bo on the aafo side. The
glass manufactured will be a standard
brand known as Star Glass. E. A. Fer
rln Is president of the company, R. W.
Kunz secretary and treasurer, August
Boulanger general manager and super
intendent. Messrs. Kunz and Boul
anger are practical glass men and are
recognized as tho best glass men In the
country. No two men can be found
that are their superiors In this line.
Tho plant will make colored and chipped
gloss. Mr. Boulanger has a process of
his own of blowing glass which no
other plant has.
Tho plant will consist of two build
ings, largest one will 150x575 feet with
40 1(H) t wall, the other will be 40x280
with 28 foot wall. The buildings will
bo constructed of brick, Iron and wood
and roofed with corrugated steol. H.
L. Dixon, of Pittsburg, has the contract
for putting In the plant. Tho Star
(ilass Company will have charge of tho
reclion of the buildings. The work
f building will bo sturtcd next week.
It will be a thirty-six blower plant.
Ono hundred and ninety men will be
employed at start, one hundred and
five of whom will be skilled laborers,
such as blowers, snappers, gatherers
and Hattenors, and eighty-five will be
local laborers. Pay roll will bo at least
94.000 per week, which will be paid
every Saturday. Plant will run nine
months In the year, from Soptember 15
to June 15. ' Glass men are usually high
livers and spend their money freely,
therefore this industry will put consid
erable money In circulation every month
in Reynoldsvllle.
The product of the plant is practically
undor contract for five years and when
the glass is loaded on the cars at this
place the Star Glass Company will get
a draft for amount of glass loaded, so
the company will have no trouble in
paying their employes.
The Reynoldsvllle Land Improvement
Co. will give the Star Glass Company ten
acres of land near tho silk mill for the
glass plant. About fifty new houses
will bo built near the mill.
The Star Glass Company will also put
in a clay plant to make pots for glass
plants. The clay works will employ a
number of men.
