| TEXT | This is a new industry in the West in 1873, and notable as the only pin factory west of Connecticut, except a small one at Cohoes, N. Y. The pins made here, and which are said to be fully equal to those of Eastern or English manufacture, amount to 1,500,000 per day. This amount consumes 450 lbs. of brass wire daily, which is made in Connecticut. All the machines used were made in the works by the company themselves, and each machine will make 120 pins a minute. The capacity of the works is shortly to be doubled. |
