P MACHINERY WORTH $50,000 Ordered by Killingly Manufacturing Company..— Will Seon Turn Out 1,500,000 Yards of Tire Duck an!y. An order has been placed for 350,000 worth “of new machinery by the Kii- lingly Manufacturing company of Wil- liamsville, a subsidiary company of tie Goodyear Tire- and Rubber compauj, to complete the unit which was partiy established after it was decided to de- vote the mills exclusively to the manu- facture of automobile tire duck, which line of operation has been so success- fully conducted as to warrant an im- mediate increase in the plant’s capac!. tyfor production, which will have been raised to 1,500,000 yards a year when tl;le machinery to be placed is in ser- vice. The t of the new machinery— carding—will begin to arrive dur ‘Octobery. and will be followed during' November by the spinning and weav- ir? machines, The cards will be atart« ed as soon as ready; and likewise the spinning machines, so that additional quantities of yarn' will be on hand by -jehinery and is also being treated ex- the time the-new looms are ready for opoeration. Jt is expected that nearly all of the new machinery will be run- ning by the first of the year. At the present time the mill is em- ploying about 140 bhands and has a yroll of approximately $2,500 a week. ‘he number of employes will be in- creased to close to 200 when the unit is completed. This expansion is taken by persons closely ‘interestéd in the prospects of the company as oniyv one Step of steadily increasing the busi- ness, which will probably require an- other mill in lhil\ illage, where there is 2 fine site, withtn the next two or three years. The present mill is being made ready to receive the additional ma- teriorly to a coat of. white, making it one of the cleanest looking mills any- ‘where to be found.
