NONsUL W. II. HUNT OF 81. Etien-
ne, IN response 10 an American
- request, has prepared the follow
ing article on the manufacture Of rib
bons at that French city;
The production Of ribbons at st.
Etienne amounted In 1906 20 ils'OoO,OOO,
being an increase OF s3.oO0.O0 over the
previous year. Expectation was some
what over S6o00000, or an Increase or
81 900 900 as compared with 1905. RIB
bons arc exported from st. Etienne
more or less over the world. but the
countries which are the largest pur-
chasers are England, Germany United
States, Canada, Argentine Republic,
China, Italy and Spain.
The present number Of looms in ST.
Euenne and tho vicinity Is estimated
at 30.55s. that of spindles, 8l1s66, and
the total number OF men, women and
children employed in the Industry "a
estimated at 5000. The number OF
ribbon manufactorlas Is about 100 but
they are not all confined 10 the city. a
large number being scattered through
the small towns OF tho departments OF
the Loire. Haute Loire. and the Isere.
within the last few years electric mo-
cor power has been distributed not
only 10 the large ribbon factories Of tho
region, but also 10 every weaver who
works a home. Hitherto the weavers,
who generally possess from two 20
three looms, did an the work by hand,
but row handmade ribbons may be
considered a thing Of the past The
output has consequently increased. ana
the wages are a little better Than some
years ago.
