eS' II is a diff s'It matter tor a family, how
ever small it may be, in these times, to get
along comfortably without dining table Even
printers. poeerty-stricken as they are, feel the
necessity Of such things aud sometimes enjoy
the luxury Knowing this fact, our good friend
WIN. Crook, Jr., has sent us a large, beautiful.
and substantial dining table. Its dimensions
are 50 great that we never expect to have fam
iy which il will not accommodate, while we have
fears that one "leaf will be all that We can
properly supply with edibes, or cover with
Louisiana linen! Mr.. c, has been engaged in
the Cabinet aud Furniture business some time,
and his enterprise aud geutemOnly mode of do
ing business, has, naturally enough enlarged his
trade, until now he finds il necessary TO keep
several hands employed constantly, to supply
the demand for his work. He not only manu-
factues and keeps constantly on hand large
quantity of Furniture and Cabinet Ware for this
market, but he furnishes large number OF chairs
tables, bed steads, &c, for the Toledo trade and
the large amount U! turning which he does for
builders in Toledo, is probably greatly underes-
timated by our people, unless they have observed
his almost daily shipments. We regard Mr.. C.'s
facilities for business, aud his prudent and skill
full managent, as a sure guarantee that Perys.
burg will eventually become an important
point in the manufacture of Furniture and Cab
met Ware. Hard as the times have been, this
business has increased steadily, and under prop
er management such as it will receive from the
hands of Mr. Crook, it cannot fail to increase
until it will add much to the growth and bus-
ness Of our town. Lumber is plenty and cheap
water power is the most convenient and eco.
nomcal, and nothing but bad management can
prevent the constant growth Of Perrysburg as g
manufacturing point. Our people may do much
to encourage discourage its progress 1t
is to be hoped they will act the part of wise men,
and encourage all these growing interests, which
so vitality affect the prosperity of the place.
Encourage and patronize those who are building
upa manufacturing business. They are public
benefactors who afford labor and business for all
classes of society.
