BIG INCREASE IN =
KNITTING MILLS
Practically a Million Dollar Diff
ference in Output of Mills for
1913 and for 1914

in the output Of the knitting mill in
dustry of the State. according to the
figures of the Commissioner of Labor
and Printing NJ. L. Shipman. is prac-
tically a million dollars.
1.-The knitting industry in the State
shows the greatest gain Of any ndus4
try reported" said Mr.. Shipnan, in
discussing his figures. In the pre-
amble of the annual report of the
labor and printing department the
commissioner says:
ct is noticeable as applying to both
the spinning. the weaving and the
knitting ends of the business hat
there is a steady development toward
a higher grade of goods. This is
evidenced by the fact that the value
of products show a decided advance
when compared to the amount of raw
material used. 1t is also a matter Of
note that many local dealers are feat
uring homemade knit goods, which
appear to be the equal of any goods
from other sections Of the country"
The comparison of the figures of the
commissioners report with the report
of the same industry last year. There
has been an increase of seventeen
knitting mills III the State. The APP
proXimate of the raw material for
forty-seven of these mills is 16.S19,-
112 pounds. Last year this was rep
resented by 14,731,119 pounds, show
ing an increase in raw material OF
2,147.9 53 pounds for these forty-seVen
mills. AT the same time the value of
output of ~forty-nine mills jumped
from $6.811, 500 to $7,771.OS0. a diff
ference of S959,39G.
One very striking fact in the report
on the figures on literacy, ninety-seven
per cent of the men, women and chill
dren employed in the mills of the
State numbering S,227 are able to
read and to write:
Seventy-eight knitting mills are re-
ported for 1914 and ffty-six show a
capital stock Of S4,762,196. The ap-
prOXimate amount of raw material
used by fOrty-SeNen mills is 1872
172 pounds. The estimated value OF
yearly output by forty-nine mills is
$7,771,0S0.45. The number Of spin
dies in use in these mills is given as
2 144,840: knitting machines, 1880;
sewing machines, 1000; cards, 572:
s making use Of 20,163 horsepower.
Thirteen do not report horsepower.
Twenty-eight mills use steam power
for power; t~hirty-siX use electricity
two gasoline; W steam and electric,
two water; one steam and water; two
kerosene; four do not report power
used.
: The number Of employees reported ia
1892 children. There are 19,S43 per-
