SHE SPUN THE FIRST SPOOL

Martha Little Davidson, the first per-
son that wound a thread about a spool
in this country, is spending her last
days in Lebanon. Ill. She has seen the
marvellous growth of the thread indus
try in the United States, and often,
when she feels in the humor, she can
recall the early days when that grand
industry consisted of one small spool
ing mill in Dracut, a little town of
Massachusetts.
Long ago the swiftly flowing Merri-
mac river furnished the power neces-
sary to drive the machinery that
wound about the spool the fine thread
that was imported from abroad; for
America had not yet developed the
thread manufacturing industry. This
little plant, in which Martha Little and
her sister worked, has since grown to
be the great industry whose owners
have made their name n household
word in the land.
Lawson was the name of the man
who then owned the little mill, which
has since grown with such wonderful
strides. It was he who brought Miss
4 Little and her sister over from Scot
land to look after the spooling Of the
thread
One Of the recommendations that
| commended her to the Nessrs. Lawson
was that she held a perfect record.
! This meant that in the eXacting task
| of counting accurately the lengths as
| she rapidly reeled them upon the spool
in keeping the account correctly and
winding exactly the required lengths
upOn the spool she had
| never been found in error nor remiss
in other requirements OF the work by
the careful and repeated tests made by
the OVerseers, who took cOgnizance
not only of the style of work. but Of
the accuracy Of the count, from which
it seems that the then established

tion upon the labels, warranted 2O'

WILL
STAND TOGETHER
PRESIDENT HENRY CROCKER'S
ADMINISTRATION INDoRSED
Convention Concludes It's Labors and
Reflects the Old Board Of Direct
ors With Two Exceptions.

At the second session Of the California
Winemakers Corporation held yesterday
in the Chamber of Commerce, the mem
bers upheld the policy of President Henry
]. Crocker's administration by electing
the old board of directors with two excep
TONS Those were P c. Rossi and John
II. Wheeler. The two gentlemen were
placed in nomination and would have been
elected, but both declined. They took
this course IN order to avert criticism
since they are dealers as well as wine
makers. They retire with the best wishes
of the other members.
The board as now constituted consists
of Henry ]. Croker. c. F. Montealegre.
B. w. Paxton, Peter Ball, H. V. Chase,
D. NJ. Delmas, w. J. Hotchkiss, Osgood
Putnam who represents Alameda County,
and c. n. Pickett of Napa, the last two
| being newly elected. The board will or
ganize and re-elect Henry Croker presi-
dent.
AT the morning session r. c. Terry, D. M
Delmas, Osgood Putnam and ]. jacob, of
Lachman & Jacob, addressed the mem
a continuance of the corporation and for
harmony in its ranks. The question of
the continuance of the organization will
be taken up six months hence, as the
agreement will not expire until the pres
ent vintage is disposed of.
1t developed in discussion that certain
members had violated the agreement en-
tered into in 1894 to sell to consumers only
and not to dealers. They had become as
satisfied with the price obtained for SO
wine, and had sold their 81 product direct
They had not as yet transferred their 80
wine to the corporation on that account,
but after listening to the earnest pleas
made by some members to stand by their
agreement they have agreed to carry out
| their promises, and will transfer their
wine.
President Crocker was jubilant at the
outcome of the convention, and predicted
a brilliant future for the corporation. In
speaking of lie situation after the adj
journment he said: Il believe that / have
succeeded in getting what l have been
striving for long time, and that is the
undivided support of the members of the
corporation. The members came to this
convention intending to find fault with the
management, but when things were ex-
planned to them they saw the wisdom of
our course and the result shows they have
unqualifiedly Endorsed our administration.
| The policy on the old lines will be CON
tinued. By the address of Mr.. jacob, the
members see that the wine dealers are
in sympathy with the producers and NOT
against them as hitherto been supposed
They realize that the dealer can not profit
in the long run unless the maker also
profits. We have been getting S1s and 104
cents a gallon for our wine, and we have
the bulk of it left on a rising market 1t
is the first time in the history of the wine
industry that the market is open, and this
has been brought about by the California
Winemakers' Corporation"
