Visitors 70 Noodharrv.

A numbsr Of prominent business men from San /.
dusky, Ohio, who attended the Grand Army en-
eampment In Baltimore last week, on Friday paid
q visit to woodberry, accompanied by Major y.
s. Hill, Of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. Some
Of the visitors are extensive dealers In the fabrics
Of the Woodbury. cotton mills aud large customers
Of the Messrs. Hooper. They were received In the
village by Mr.. Alcasus Hooper, ofthe Grm Of Win d.
L. Hooper Sons, who are the largest manufac.
turers Of cotton duck and netting in the world.
The various buildings, the mills and the boarding
houses for female employees were Inspected with
eager interest, and when the visit was over the
Sandusky men expressed the opinion that Balt.
more and It's indu,triai suburbs constitute n pro-
gressive and rapidly growing community, with
business advantages inferior to no city in the
United States.
About 1900 people live in and near woodberry,
oil Of whom earn n comfortable living directly or
Indirectly from the diaeren; nufactories. Those
who are not employed by these thriving indus
tries are engaged In various trades or rs stare
keepers. Messrs. WIN. T.. Hooper 4 Sons run FIVE
mills. four Of which. namely, Meadow. Woodbury.,
Park and Clipper. at the village Of Woodbury.,
and one at NJ Washington. The other large in
dustries are the Mount Vernon Company, also cot
ton-duck manufacturer, the Druid Mills aud the
foundry and machine shops Of Mcssrs. Poole A
Hunt. All these arc immense concerns, and are
busy the year round. The woodberry cotton. duck
factories supply nearly the whole country with
that material.
There are similar factories in Massachusetts, and
Connecticut. but they are Of comparatively small
capacity. OF late years some attention has been
paid 90 this industry In tho South and one or two
factories have sprung up, but they, as well rs
those Of the North, are far below the standard Of
the Woodbury. establishments.
Many Of the dwellings in the village arc owned
by the proprie;ors Of the factories, and were
erected with a view Of having them pass by pur-
chase into the hands Of the employees 90 that each
family may own Its own home. This plan has
worked admirably for both employee and en-
pcyer, a. Il teaches the people the importance Of
saving money " they wish 20 be safe from want
