Big Industries Built up on Small Articles.
Few people realize the wants and re-
Quirements OF the eighty millions of peo-
pie in the United States. Who would
think that it requires over a million dol
lars capital to carry on the package dye
business in this country, and that there
are twelve different factories in the Unit
ed States that manufacture package dye?
One of the largest package dye factories
in the world is that of the Putnam Fade
less Dye Co., Unionville, Mo. In this fac
tory alone over three million packages
are put up every year. When you know
that each package colors from to 6
pounds of goods. or that the output of
Putnam Fadeless Dyes alone will color
from 9 to IS million pounds and that it
would require more than 500 cars to haul
this amount of dyed goods. you will re-
alize the magnitude of this seemingly
small business.
