WOOL FROM 10000
SHEEP USED DAILY
BY One CARPET MILL
Fifty-three Miles Of Carpet Pro-
duced Every Day By New
York Manufacturer.
Many Interesting Facts Revealed
Through Publication Of Statistics

The wool used daily in the weav-
ing of carpets and rugs by a New
York manufacturer is equal to the
shearing from thirty thousand sheep.
The soft, rich coats of these animals
are turned into the looms at the rate
of 10000 pounds every day.
These and many other interesting
facts were revealed recently through
the publication of statistics concern
ing their mammoth mills at Yonkers,
N. Y, by Alexander Smith 6 Sons
Carpet Company, said to be the larg-
est manufacturers of carpets and rugs
in the world.
If all the wool used in these mills
were reckoned according to the num-
Der of animals from which it is shear
ed, a years output at the mills would
represent the clip from 100000
sheep-a number which would consti-
tute herds beyond the imagination.
For the manufacturing of all this
wool into American-made carpets and
rugs, the energy and industry Of 1900
employees is devoted with a spirit of
cooperation and craftsmanship re-
sembling the loyalty given to his in
dividual loom by the smaller weaver
of bygone days.
This army of workers operates 1,5OO
looms, with a total daily production
of 10000 yards of carpets and rugs.
Place one days tremendous output in
a continuous line and it would make
a strip Of carpet SO miles long. In
one year of eight-hour working days,
the 1900 looms turn out % millions of
yards, making an annual production
of almost 10000 lineal miles. The car
pet made through a years effort
would reach more than half way
around the world.
Every hour this mill produces H.
25O yards, or 1874 yards per minute!
The amount of mechanical energy en-
tering the work may be fancied from
the fact that the company uses 225
tons of coal every day. And all this
activity takes place in mills which
occupy 521a acres Of floor space, am
pie area to accommodate the parking
of about 10000 motor cars!
It is interesting to note that the
founder of these giant mills was also
the inventor of the famous Administer
loom The institution which has car
ried on since 1860 has specialized, it
is said, in the making Of four basic
weaves known as Administers, Velvets,
Brussels and Wilton Vel
vets.

BURRSVILLE

The revival services at the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church here are pro-
crossing and the pastor is being as
sisted in the work by the Howard Sis
ters, who are doing evangelistic work.
Their singing is a splendid service in
itself and attracts large audiences.
Several ministers are also assisting
with the preaching, as a different
speaker fills the pulpit each night.
There is a general interest aroused
and the people are turning out we'll,
and a large result in advancement Of
the Christian feeling will certainly
result from this special service.
The Children's Day service took
place last Sunday at the M. P. Church
and the program was carried out fine
by the children, before a large at
tendance of the people.
The May business meeting of the
church was held at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Howard Hopkins, when
very pleasant session was the result.
After business a social program was
carried out and all were served with
refreshments in the form of cake and
ice cream.
