the Valley Worstod Mills. Their extensive
plant, in size and amount of capital involved
occupies quite prominent position in the in
dustrial Advancement and general welfare OF
this city, while in the matter OF perfection of
equipment il is unsurpassed by any One OF
the most complete, yet quiet revolutions eff
fected in the methods of any trade i'm the last
quarter OF a century is certainly that which
has taken place in the manufacture OF
worstee yarns produced at the mills of this
company. This great change has been
brought about by the use OF greatly improved
machinery and the utilization of the In
genious ideas of shrewd inventors.
The management OF this company have
always been in the lead as far as adopting
new ideas and devices are concerned. and inn
prevents have constantly been made. Their
constant aim has been TO produce the finest
ts4sa Taest satisfactory lite -ef goods, and the
result is that they have reached as near per-
foction as IL Is possible for ingenuity 10 ac
complish.
Like many other large industrial works this
company has grown from rather modest be.
ginning until to-day IL forms a plant produc-
ing within its own boundaries about sOoOoo
pounds annually. Their plant covers three
acres or ground and is located in the western
END or the city. lt consists of n series
OF buildings, the main mill being sOx0O
feet, equipped with fourteen combing ma
chimes and over 1900 spindles. The offices
of the company are located In substantial

the following board of officers, viz: James r
Doudge, president; William n. Arnold. treas-
urer; John A. Gross. secretary. James w
Greaves is superintendent and George G. Ar.
mold, salesman.
After the reorganization the companv

Mills for the spinning of high-grade worst,d
yarns Tor coatings, dress goods, Jersey and
knitting purposes is such that but little could
be said which would tend 10 increase the bigh
esteem In which tho productions are held nv
