Lewiston and auburn manufactures,

Lewiston and Auburn Manufactures,
The Lewiston Journal publishes some inter-
esting statistics relating 10 the manufactures
of the enterprising cities of Lewiston and
Auburn.
10 1873, all the spindes ia Lewiston (save
those of Lincoln Mil), have been unin,errupt-
ly running. 1t appears that there is now invest
ed in manufacturing enterprises in Lewiston
seven and quarter million dollars, mainly in
the production of cotton goods There ar
282, ZIG spindles 10 Lewiston, which the past
year have handled q 7O7, 253 pounds of cotton
and made over 50 600 600 yards of goods
enough to girdle the earth ouce and then leave
a surplus of five thousaed miles of cloth.
There are now ten cotton mills and three
wooden mills in Lewiston, consuming Is, 600
tons of coal yer year ard using 400 water h. p.
Only about one-half of the water power has
thus far been used. There are employed in
manufacturing s 544 persons of whom there is
an excess of 596 females over ales. The
amount of money disbnrsed in Lewiston in 1873
by manufacturers was nearly 5000 900, or
$242 800 per mOuth-mainly to working men
and women.
The shoe manufacturers 10 Auburn did about
the same aggregate business in 1878 as in 1877.
The improvcm in machinery have enabled
manuf 'cturers to produce as many goods as
ever with less help. About three and one quar-
ter million pairs of shoes were made in Auburn
in 1877, and SIX million pounds Of leather con-
sumed. There ara fourteen shoe factories in
the city, with capital of one million dollars.
La all kinds of manufactures in Auburn about
two million dollars are invested, employing
2.375 hands, of whom $50 are males and 1926
females. $50 females and !, 400 males are en-
ployed in the shoe business. $3.50 900 per an.
NUN is the nav roll of Auburn manufacturers,
Of which $637 200 is on account of shoes. The
total value of he m anufactures of Auburn OF
all kinds for 1878, is three million four hundred
thousand dollars,
