Perrysburg in ths Advance.
The good crops gathered in this locality dur
ing the past season and its abun lAnt resources
of various kinds Of timber have adled largely
TO the business interests an wealth OF Perrys-
burg. Every interest exhibits an advance over
the results Of 1870, AMI the prospects for the
coming season are still more encouraging.
About twenty dwellings have been erected du-
ring lh. year an the popu alton OF the place Is
Etsa lily Increasing, of which NJ better iniei-
iinn can ha furnished. than the fact that W. are
nat aware Of there being single house In the
tIwn uuoccupied.
The operations Of tn. m anu "a ctoriss and deal
era Of the place in the purchase of staves and
lumber for the manufacture OF slaves aud head
ing are simply enormous, As will be seen from
the detailed statement made by the parties them
selves.

shipped by water and railroad during tho past

The prospects for the coming year are still
more encouraging, as there is a demand for all
tbi, slass of stayes that can be obtained.
The statistics furnished by the managers OF
the s,ave factories are still more expressive in
point Of numbers. as will be seen by the follow
ing:
Messrs. McGooKY s. MOORE, through their
very able Agent and Superintendent, Mr. j. 5.
PARkHvRsr, have purchased during the year
1871, as follows
Cords of sta'e bolts.... '.'...''''' '2,ooO

Total. ................... 200
The articles manufactured by them are
Stay.s.... .................... Il 500 900

Tho magnitude of the business done, may be
inferred from the fact that Mr.. PARKHURsT, O
few days since, sold l0O, 900 staves to ore cu'.
toner.
Large as the above figures are, the STEVENS
Stavs Ma Iufaciurins Company surpass them in
the magnitude of their operations. During the
wear 1871, Mr.. THOMSON has purchased
Cords of stave bolts ....'...''''.' OOU

During the same period they have manufac-
tured
Stayes.... ........ 8 900 0OC

Flour, lime and apple barrels l5,OOO
Thus it will Je seen that these two establish
ments, alone have purchased over 5000 cords oi
wood for stave and beading bolts besides very
large amount of other articles the product o.
the woods.
When to these figures we add the largo amour
OF lumber used by Mr.. TOLMAN in the manutac
ture of fruit boxes and nail keg slaves, and tk'
demand made bv the Steam Wooden Bowl Fac
tory Of W. J. DESIsoS & Co., for the amoun
nfrsw material to meet the necessities of thei
large basiness, it will be seen that the demand
for the product Of our woods in this locality arr
simply enormous.
As grain market, Perrysburg is also making
headway, and with the prospects which ar
now looming up, will sooH regain her ancien
prestige.

but as a beginning OF better days and as matte
for future reference we place it on record.
