One day Last week We took q look through the
extensive woolen mills of J. Green & Co., at
Dayton. 1t will be remembered that this is the
pioneer establishment Of this kind in the state.
In 1858 the old wooden structure, near the loca.
tion OF the presen. mills, ran but one set Of
machinery and even in its infant state, and linn.
tied capacity, it supplied The farmers for many
miles around with excellent cloth and good
stocking yarn. and furpished them with good
market for wool. Mr.. John Green, tho senior
member OF the present firm, wisely concluded TO
add to and extend tho mills in capacity,--so a.
to keep pace with the rapid growth of the coun.
try around.
In 1864 the new building was erected. It is
built OF Joliet stoLs. ia one hundred feet bv fifty
and six stories high, and not only solid and dur
able IN its construction, but elegant in architect
ural design externally, and handsomely furnished
internally, and is, altogether, most splendid
building.
The firm now constantly run eleven broad
and three narrow looms; six spinning jacks, Of
24O spindles EACH three fulliug mills, besides
portion, and give constant and remunerativc
employment to large number of people, male
and female.
