ct interest.
We have many enterprising establishments
among US, Of which We are proud and which
are doing much, by attracting capital and "a.
Dor, TO give Ne an inherent and self sustaining
life. Prominent among these We will mention
the Foundrics apd Machine Shops Of suttu.
BARNES & Co. aud Loouis & NYMAN, which
employ a large number Of hands and turn out
yearly an immense sight Of work, in the share
Of threshcrs and scparators, clover hulers,
planters, sced-drills, eultivators. plows, hur.
rows, oidcr-miiis, corn.shcllers and castiues
Of all kinds. as sell as portable and stationary
steam engines and all kinds Of machinery
Then there is the establishments Of W. II.
STEWART, which turns out large amount Of
work in the shape Of farming implements
These establishments are a credit 70 the place
aud they have done and arc still doing much
to build up the town and give Il healthy
growth. They ought to be oucouraged-ove.
ry farmer and mechanic should palronize them
andbuy their articles Of manufacture, In pre-.
ference to those made out Of the county.
In ibis connection, also, We must not omit
to mention the Sash and Door manuractories
and planning mill and joining establishments
Of s. & b. KArr aud @ Yosr, in which a
great deal Of capital and labor arc employed
and which turn of an immense amount Of
work We doubt il another establishment Of
the kind in Northern Ohio eau be found 10
equal that Of tho Mcssrs. KArr near the depot.
in the variety Of machinery and the quantity
and quality Of work donc.
For cabinet ware, furniture and upholstery,
the establishments Of W. @. Myrus & BRo.
and J FrFaE are hard to beat. Their work is
superior to anything in this part Of Ohio aud
we are glad TO know that they are doing o
prosperous business. These establishments
ought to be encouraged and those who ~ out.
side the county for their furniture ought to be
denounced as not good citizens.
The Tin, Copper and Sheet Iron Manulac-
tory Of the Mess. YERK is one Of the notice.
able features Of our town. Their establishment
is oneor the largest In Ohio and gives en-
ployment to n large number Of hands. We
are glad to learn that this cn'crprising firm
purpose erecting foundry in this place, for
the manufacture Of stoves and hollow w0re.-
This is as it should be. Nothing should be
bought outside Of Tifin, that can possibly be
made in it,
For fine carriages and buggies, we point
with pride to the establishments Of p VAN.
MIST and WENNER s KAuL. Their work is
Acknowledged to be superior to anything in
this part Of the state,
There are many other establishments in
Timn, which we would like to notice, but
have not time. Among them are the rope.
walk of WNL HERoLp, the breweres Of c.
SEIocnRIsr and Smrn & MILLER, the marble
manufactures Of +. StNom and WrxDLEn d
WEnD, the making establishment of II. 4
c. b. Gnoss, sc, DC
The existence of these establishments in
our midstis gratifying evidence Of our pros
perity, but Tiiin needs something more. A
vast amount Of wealth Is annually sent ont Of
the county, in tho shape Of raw material,
which should be manufactured at home thus
giving employment to thousands f laborcrs
and vust amount of capital, Every bushcl
OF wheat, not neodod for home consumption,
should first be converted into flour and then
shipped of aud every pound Of wool and rugs
should be bought up and manufactured into
cloth and paper, right here IN Seneca Co. II
there is any profit in this, why not let our
citizens have the beneftof it? We need more
merchant mills, large woolen manuiac,ory
a paper mill, an oil mill, a soap and candle
manufuetory, tub aud phil factory, a wood
en- and hollow ware establishment, and a
tool factory. We need purely agricultural
establishment, where every thing the farmer
needs can be had, from a reaper down. We
have the material and these things could all
be made in Tiffin, just as wellas in New Yorl,
| or Boston.
| Finally we would say TO our citizeus, that
when mechanics and capitalists come among
us, let us not give them the "cold shoulder" "
but encourage them, patronizo them and as
sist them in every way possible; and in this
way some of us may live to see tho day, when
Tifin shall rank with the first cities in Ohio
