PUTNAM New Company With Capital of $175,000 to Occupy Monohansett Mill Manufacture Tire Duck—Telsphone Operator’s Alarm Saves South Woodstock House—St, Mary's Parish Annual Report. The first indication since the new year that Putnam is to enjoy addition- al prosperity during 1912 is contained in the announcement that the Man- hansett Manufacturing company, re- cently incorporated in Rhode Island and having a capitalization of $17 000, is to occupy the mill so long held by the Monohansett Manufacturing company. This means the coming of a big new industry to Putnam, most important that has located here for a score of years. It is stated that at least 200 hands will be employed and that this number will be gradual- Iv increased, as the plans of the new n contemplate the erection of an | adattion to the present mill, this addi- tion to be approximately 100 feet i length and ome story in height | The new company the manufacture of what is known to the trade as “tire duck,” a very heavy cotton fabric which enters into the manufacture of automobile tires, this fabric being manufactured by such a small number of plants that the sup- ply is seldom equal to the demand. The interests that compose the Man- hasset company are prominent in tk rubber trade, a kindred line of manu- fact , and the men are resident in ‘Woonsocket, Providence and Fall Riv- er. The agreement for the taking over of the plant and property is ck d by word of mouth, and in all probability the papers will be passed within the next few days. 2 for the bringing here of this very promising indusiry have been quietly conducted. The plant has been inspected and approved as satis factory and all the preliminary wo put through without any publicity, but the prospect of whirring machinery in a plant that has been idle for months, except for a few weeks to run out stock, will be_none the less welcome to Putnam people. Today the Mono slly bare of machinery and equip- ment, following the auction a few | weeks ago at which all of this stuff | was sold. The new company will fit the plant with a brand new equipment { throughout. Much of this machinery, nsett mill is pr | the material to be manufactured, will | be of unusual order for the cotton in- | dustry. For instance, the looms are { to be of a special and heavy type and will cost about $500 each. An opera- tive will operate only one of these, s heavy is the work and so exacting is the manner of weaving. This being a city In which the co ton manufacture is an important in- dustry, many of the employes of the new company can be secured here, but in all probabllity, it is said, familie experienced in weaving of tire { duck will be brought here. and the search for tenements to house has already commenced Repairs to the mill, floors once. including new ere needed, will commence at The necessity not permit opening of the mill for act- ive work before April 1, and only -he present structure at that time. The addition fo be bullt will he proceeded with as Soon as spring opens, and W be rapidly pushed to completion. The assurance is from a source wholly re- able that when running fn full, as is contemplated, the company will give Putnam an industry twice as important | the mill it is to occupy and enlarge has ever housed.
