EXETER, JNT., CANADA, THURSDAY MORNING. DECEMBER t3;'1 t 913,
1 KNITTING fICTORY 1 POSSIBIITY
Enthusiastic Meeting held in the
Town Hall last Thursday
Evening.
A knitting factory None of the near
possibilities for Exeter, and if the acme
enthusiasm as was exhibited Thurs-
day night can be kept up. a factory
will be in course of erection as soon as
all details are perfected.
The meeting was called for 8 o'clock
and at that hour fully twenty business
men were present to listen to Mr.
Spaulding, of Clinton, who promoted
the Clinton knitting factory. Doting
the evening more gentlemeu ¥1-ived,
swelling the number to over thirty.
Reeve Bobier introduced Mr. Spaul-
ding, On taking the floor, Mr. Spaul-
ding stated he was here with a view
of seeing if a company could be form-
ed to start a knitting factory. He
stated he had been here some time ago
and had a chat on the matter with
several busirese men who were con-
vinced that such an industry could he
promoted here, and the businesssuc-
cessfullyy carried on. Every mill in
the business is being taxed to the ut-
most capacity. especially those manu-
facturing cotton hosiery. The de-
mand in the Northwest is great for
such geode. Up-to•date machinery
for the manufacture of full fashioned
hosiery, is now being made and ac-
cording to Mr. Spaulding, machinery
to manufacture a full line of hosiery
will cost about $17,000, and employ-
ment
mployment given between 50 and 00 hands.
The $17,000 does not include the build-
ing. Some machines will turn out 250
dozen a day. The manufacturing of
cotton is the beet but to hold the
trade, it would be better to manufac-
ture both cotton and worsted. Mr.
Spaulding stated he knew firms who
would handle the output of the fac-
tory.. A dyeing outflt would also be
necessary and an experienced dyer
from Philadelphia would conte here
and instruct in dyeing.
It would be necessary to have full
automatic machines to be in a position
to compete with outside plants, while
a 35 horse -power engine with a 50 h. p.
boiler would be sufficient power
to operate the plant. The building
necessary for such a plant would need
to be 00x42 and for the dye•house a
building 50x30 would be sufficient with
an extra building for the boiler and
engine.
Mr. Spaulding said it would be nec-
essary to raise a capital of about 1130.-
000 which would leave six or seven
thousand dollars for working capital.
The Corporation would be asked for a
loan on the same terms we the canning
factory loan was given, that of $10,000
on a $25,000 capital for 15 years.
"How much are you willing to put
in yourself ?" was asked of Mr. Spaul-
ding.
"All the available capital I have,
about $2.000" replied Mr, Spaulding.
Asked if to start on a smaller scale
would not be the best plan, Mr, Spent -
dine replied that he did not believe it
would pay and had the same opinion
when it came to specializing, Ile
would urge putting in the same kind
of machinery as is used in the Old
Country. it, in his opinion being the
most satisfactory.
Several of those present expressed
themselves that a knitting factory
would be a paying institution and a
good thing for the town and that a
loan from the town could be secured
on the same basis as the capning fac-
tory loan, and Messrs. McCallum Hur-
don and Farmer were appointed a
committee to wait upon the council
and ask that body to take the matter
up with a view of haying a by-law
submitted to the people at the Janu-
ary elections.
A subscription list was etarted and
about $5,000 was promised by those
present.
The committee appointed to wait on
the council met Friday morning to he
in readiness to meet the council the
same evening, but were informed the
time between now and the January
elections is too short to complete all
details and as the council of next year
will have the final say in passing the
by-law. the committee deferred action
until a later date.
However the matter will be agitated
and it is expected that when the coun-
cil is approached for a loan sufficient
capital will have been eubacribed to
insure the eit:►bliehment of a knit-
ting factory.
The Clinton News -Record has the
following to say about the knitting
factory of that t own: —Mr. A. J. Pax-
ton of Paxton & O'Neil, Philadelphia.
Pa., is installing new machines in the
knitting factory. The company in-
forms the News Record that in the
past few weeke they have made ad-
ditions to the value of $1,000 to their
plant, that they have been compelled
to do epi iu order to meet the demands
upon their output. They have already
sold out ot several lines for next spring
and of one line for next fall, They
are now turning out 151 dozen pair of
cotton hose per day in addition to
cashmere and worsted hose. The
News -Record is pleased to be able to
record the success of this industry.
The factory will be open to visitors on
Tuesday and Wednesday eveningi of
next week.

assessment to be $1,200. On motion
of Heaman and Puke. the matter was
laid over until next meeting when the
names of factories and the exemptions
allowed will be placed before the coun-
cil.
Harry Parsons entered a kick on his
assessment. His assessment notice
showed that lie ie assessed for 5575,
which at 21 mills on the dollar would
make $12 08. lie received a notice
that his taxes are $17.33. It was ex•
plained that the difference was for a
business tax. which was omitted from
the roll. The matter was laid over
until next meeting tosee if Mr. Par-
sons can be rade to pay the business
tax, when he was not notified in time
to make an appeal.
Several bills were laid over for fur-
ther considera;,ion. The by law for
the January election was read the re-

passed. The polling maces will be the
same as last year. The next meeting
will be held on December IOtb.
HiCHS' FORECASTS
A reactionary storm period is cen-
tral on the 8th, 9th, and 10th. The
moon is at last quarter on the 8th and
on the celestial equator on the 10th.
This period is else at the beginning of
the December solstice period and co-
incident with tin. •annual twagnectic
and electrical c'-i-isthat falls from
the 8th to th.• '5th. of December.
Look for fall' e,• barometer, rising
temperature, growing cloudiness and
decided winter storms. reaching a cul-
mination. with possibly winter light-
ning and thunder about the 10th.
About the 10th to 15th of December
the south pole of the earth is present-
ed in its smallest angle to the equator
of the sun. hence the prime source of
many phenomena at this time. Our
little planet takes nn a maximun of
positive magnetism and electricity at
one &tole, and this in turn induces a
maximum of negative forces in the op-
posite hemiephere. Hence the 8th to
about the 15th of .)ecemher—the 11th
being the central day—is as a rule a
period in which magnetic perturb-
ations, electrical earth -currents, auro-
ral lights, seismic shakes and storms
are more frequent, general and severe.
