STATISTICS OF MANUFACTURES FOR THE STATE, CITIES, AND INDUSTRIES

Prepared under the supervision of W. M, STEUART, Chier Statistician for Manufactures

INTRODUCTION.

This advance bulletin gives the statistics of manufactures for the state of Connecticut for the calendar year 1909 as shown by the Thirteenth Census. It will be reprinted without change as a part of the Compendium of the Census for Connecticut, and in the final reports of the 'rhirteenth Census.

The text summarizes the general results of the census inquiry, presenting a series of special tables in which the main facts printed in the general tables are given in convenient form for the state as a whole and for important industi·ies. It also presents tables in which the statistics for the industries of the sta.te as a whole and. for a few importanli industries are classified by character of ownership, size of establishments, number of wage earners, and prevailing hours of labor, information which could not be presented in general tables for each industry without disclosing the facts for indivitlual establishments.

At the encl of the bulletin are two general tabies. '!'able I gives for 1909, 1904, and 1899 the number of

establishments and of persons engaged in the industries, primary power, capital, salaries iwcl wages, cost of materials, value of products, and value added by manufacture reported for all industries combined and for certain important industries (1) for the state as a whole and (2) for the cities of Bridgeport, Hartford, New Haven, ancl Waterbury. It also gives the same items for all industries combined for every city l1Ilcl

borough having in 1910 a population of over 10,000 but less than 50,000.

Table II gives statistics in detail for l 909 for the state and for a larger number of industries.

Scope of census: Factory industries.-Census statistics of manufactures are compiled primarily for the purpose of showing the absolute and relative magnitude of the different branches of indus:ry covered and their growth or decline. Incidentally, the effort 1~ made to. present data throwing light upon character of organization, location of establishments size of establishments labor force and similar aubjocts. When u~e is made of the data f~r these pur~ ~os?s, ~tis imperative that due attention should be given to the lurutatio~s of the figures. Particularly is this true when the attempt is made to derive from them figures purporting to show a~erage wages, cost of production, or profits. These limitations WI~ be fully discussed in the general report on manufactures fo1; the Um~d ~taoos as a whole. It is impossible to reproduce such discuss10n In the bulletins relative to the individual states. ~he census of 1909, like that of 1904 was confined to manufac-

tunng e t bl' h . ' s a rs ments conducted under the factory system, as

distinguished from the neighborhood, hand, and building industries. Where statistics for 1899 are given they have been reduced to a comparable basis by eliminating the latter classes of industries. The census does not include establishments which were idle during the entire year, or had a value of products of less than $500, or the manufacturing done in educational, eleemosynary, and penal institutions, or in governmental establishments, except those of the Federal Government.

Period oovered.-The returns cover the calendar year 1909, or the business year which corresponds most nearly to that calendar year. The statistics cover a year's operations, except for estabIishmenta which began or discontinued business during the year.

The establishment.-The term "establishment" comprises the factories, mills, or plants which are under a common ownership or control, and for which one set of books of account is kept.

If, however, the plants constituting an estnblishrnent as thus defined were not all located within the same city or state, separate reports were secured in order thnt the separate totals might be included in the statistics for each city or state. In some instances separate reports were secured for different industries carried on in the same establishment.

Classification by industries.-The establishments were assigned to the several classes of industries according to their products of chief value. The products reported for a given industry may thus, on the one hand, include minor products very different from those covered by the class designation, and, on the other hand, may not include the total product covered· by this designation, because some part of this product may be made in establishments in which it is not the product of chief value.

Selected industries.-The general tables at the end of this bulletin give the principal facts separately for the industries of the state. A selection has been made of the leading industries of the state for more detailed consideration. Sometimes an industry of greater importance than some of those selected is omitted because it comprises so few establishments that these detailed presentations would reveal the operations of individual concerns.

Comparisons with previous censuses.-Owing to the changes in industrial conditions it is not always possible to classify establish· ments by industries in such a way as to permit accurate comparison with preceding censuses. Table I, giving comparable figures for 1909, 1904, and 1899, therefore, does not embrace all tho industries shown for Ul09 in Table II.

Influence of increased prices.-In considering changes in cost of materials, value of products, and value addecl by manufacture, account should be taken of the general increase in the prices of commodities during recent years. To the extent to which this factor has been in.fl uential the figures can not be taken as au exact measure of increase in the volume of business,

Persons engaged in industry.-At the censuses of 1909, 1904, and 1899, the following general classes of persons engaged in man ufacturing industries have been distinguished: (1) Proprietors and firm members, (2) salaried officers of corporations, (3) superintendents and manttgers, (4) clerks, and (5) wage earners. In the censuses of 1904 and 1899 these :five classes were shown according to the three main groups: (1) Proprietors and :firm members, (2) sa.Iariod officials, clerks, etc., and (3) wage earners. The second group included the

2 MANUFACTURES-CONNECTICUT.

three classes of salaried officers of corporations, superintendents and managers, and clerks. In the present census an entirely different grouping is employed: that into (1) proprietors and officials, (2) clerks, and (3) wage earners. The first group includes proprietors and firm members, salaried officers of corporations, and superintendents and managers.

At this census the number of persons engaged in the industries, segregated by sex, and, in the case of wage earners, also by age (whether under 16or16 and over), was reported for December 15, or the nearest representative day. 'rhe 15th of December was selected as representing for most industries normal conditions of employment, but where conditions were exceptional, and particularly in the case of C!Jrtain seasonal industries, such as canning, the Dec:ember date c:ould not be accepted as typical, and an earlier date had to he chosen.

In the case of employees other than wage earners the number thus reported on December 15 or other representative day has been treated as equivalent to the average for the year, since the number of employees of this class does not vary much from month to month in a given industry. In the case of wage earners the average is obtained in the manner explained in the next paragraph.

Wage earners.-In addition to the report by se:x: and age of the numher oi wage earners on December 15 or other representative day, a report was obtained of the number employed on the 15th of each month, without distinction of sex or age. From these figures the average number of wage earners for the year has been calculated by dividing the sum of the numbers reported each month by 12. The average thus obtained represents the number of wage earners that would be required to perform the work done if all were constantly employed during the entire year. Accordingly, the importance of any ind us try as an employer of labor is believed to be more accurately measured by this average than by the number employed at any one time or on a given day.

The nu:nber of wage earners reported for the representative clay, though given for each separate industry, is not totaled for all industries combined, because, in view of the variations of date such a total is believed not to be significant. It would involve mor~ or less duplication of persons working in different industries at different times, would not represent the total number employed in all industries at any one time, and would give an undue weight to seasonal industries as compared with industries in continual operation.

In particular, totals by sex and age for the wage earners reported for the representative day would be misleading because of the undue weight given to seasonal industries, in some of which such as canning ai:id prese:ving, ~he distribution of the wage earn~rs by sex and age JS materially different from that in most industries of more regular oper~tio;i. !n order to determine as nearly as possible ~he sex und age d!Btr1but1on of the average number of wage earners m, the state as a wh?le! the. following procedure has been adopted:

rh? per..,entage d1Stnbut1on by sex and age of the wage earners in each mdus~y, for December 15 or the nearest representative day, has bee~ _calculated from the actual numbers reported for that date. 'I~1s percentage h~s been applied to the average number of wage earners for the year m that industry, to determine the average number of men, women, and children employed. These calculated averages for the several industries have been added up t give the average distribution for the state as a whole.

0

In 1899 and 1904 the schedule called for the average number of wage earners of each sex 16 years and over, and the total number under 16 years of. age, !or each month, and these monthly statements were. combmed m an annual average. Comparatively few manufacturmg .concerns, however, keep their books in such way as to show readily the number of men, women, and children (under 16) emplo~ed each month. These monthly returns by sex and age were, m fac~, largely estimates. It was believed that a more ac:'.11ate and rel.mble se:i:: and age distribution could be secured by t~kmg as a bas!Jl of estimate the actual numbers employed on a smgle day.

Prevailing hours of labor.-Tho census made no attempt to tain the rnunher of employees working a given number f ~er. per week. The inquiry called merely for the prevailing op o~ra f 11 cl · 1 11' 1 · . ractice o owebl'ml eac 1 tf1sta .> 1s rnw1~t. 1 ( lceaR101ml variations in hours in

Oapital.-For reasons stated in prior census reports, the statistics of capital seemed by tho ce11s11A ctm vass arn so defective as to be without value, exc:cpt; ns indicating very geneml conditions. The instructions on the schedule for securing oapital were as follows:

'rhe answer should Ahow the tot:tl amon~1t of capital, both owned and .borrowed1 on the ln~t dity ~f the business year reported. All the ~terns of hxed mHl h ve cap1tnl m:iy. be taken ut the amounl! curried on the books. If land or. bm ldrngs are rented, that fact sh~ul~l be. stated and 110 valt.10 g1vtm: If a part of the land or bmldrngs IS owned, the rem1imder bcmg re11tecl, that fact should be so stated and only tho value of the owned property given. Do not inc~ude securities and loans ropresonting investments in other enterpnses.

Materials.-Oost of materials refers to the materials used during the year, which may be more or less than the 1miterials purchased during the year. 'l'he term nmtorials includes fuel, rent of power and heat, mill supplies, !tnd c:ontaiuorn, as well as materials forming a constituent part of the product;. Fuel includes all fuel used, ' whether for heat, light, or power, or for the process of manufacture.

Expenses.-Under "Expenses" ure included all items of expense incident to tho year's business, except interest, whether on bonds or other forms of indebtedness, and allowances for depreciation.

Value of produets.-The value of products for any industry in· eludes the total value of all products mmrnfactured in establish· ments whose products of chief value fall under the industry dcfilg. nation. 'rhe umounts given represent the selling value at the factory of all products manufactured during the year, which may differ from the value of the product.~ sold. Amounts received for work on matorials furnished by others 1uo included.

Value added by manufaeture.-'l'he value of products is not a satisfactory measure of either the absolute or the relative impor· tance of a given industry, because only a part of this value~ actually created by the manufacturing process carried on in the industry itself. Another part of it, and often by far the larger part, represents the value of tho matorials used, which have been pmducecl by agriculture or mining or by other industrial eatab· lishments. For many purposes therefore the best measure ol the importance of different class~s of inclust:ry is the value created as the result of the manufacturing opemtions carried on within the industry. 'rhis value is obtained by deducting the cost ol the materials consumed from the value of tho product. Thefigwe thus obtained is termed in the census reports "value added by manufacture."

There is a further statistical advantage which "value added" has ovei· gross value of products. In combining the value ol products for all industries tho value of products produced by one establishment and used as materials in another is duplicated, and the total, therefore, gives a greatly exaggerated idea of the wealth created. No such duplication takes place in the total "value added by manufacture."

Cost of manufacture and profits.-Census data do not show the . • d lo · entire cost of manufacture, and consequently can not be use

show profits. :& o account has been taken of interest and depre· · • • . d by

ciat1on. Even if the amount of profit could be determrne deducting the expenses from the value of the products, the rawol profit on the investment could not properly be calcuhlted, .becauss of the very defective character of the returns regarding capital. :

Primary power.-'rhe figures given for this item show the total of the primary power used by the establishments. They do not

ver the power developed by motors operated hy such power, co · l 1 1 . l l' . the inclusion of which would evic ent y resu t m cup icat10n ..

Location of establishments.-The Census Bureau has classified stablishrnents by their location in cities or classes of ciLies. In

~ terpreting these figures due consideration should be given to the :~ct that often establishments (Lre located just out.side the boundaries of cities, and are necessarily so classified, though locally they are looked upon as constituting a part of the manufacturing inter-

ests of the cities.

Laundries.-The census of 1909 was the first to include statistics of laundries. 'rhe reports are confined to establishments using mechanical power. The data are pl'esented separately and are not included in the general total for manufacturing industries, in order to avoid interference with comparisons with prior censuses.

Custom sawmills and gristmills.-In orcler to make the statietic~ for 1909 comparable with those for 1904, the data for these mille have been excluded from all the tables presenting general statistics, and are given in a separate table at the end of this report.

INDUSTRIES IN GENERAL.

General character of the state.-Connecticut, with a gross area of 4,965 squ11ro miles, of which 145 represent water surface, is one of the smallest of the states and territories of continental United States--only two states, Delaware and Rhode Island, 11 aving a less area. Its population in 1910was1,114,756, as compared with 908,420 in 1900 and 740,258 in 1890. In 1910 the density of population for the stiLte was 231.3 per square mile, the corresponding figure for 1900 being 188.5. Only three states had a greater average number of inhabitants per square mile. It ranked thirty-first among the 49 states and territories as regards population in 1910 and twenty-ninth in 1900. Eighty-nine and seven-tenths per cent of the entire population of the state resided in places having a population of 2,500 inhabitants or over, as against 87.2 per cent in 1900.

The state has four cities having a population of over 50,000-Bridgeport, Hartford, New Haven, and Waterbury. There are also 11 cities and boroughs having a population of over 10,000 but loss than 50,000-Ansonia, Danbury, Meriden, Th1icldletown, Naugatuck, New Britain, New London, Norwich, Stamford, Torrington, and Willimantic. These 15 cities and boroughs contain 56.6 per: cent of the total population of the state and are credited with 68.2 per cent of the total value of its manufactures. Apart from the cities and boroughs named, 33.l per cent of the population of the state resided in places ol' 2,500 inhabitants or over.

'l'he prominence of Connecticut as a manufacturing state is due to several causes, chief of which are the early establishment of a number or important industries in the state and the unusually largo amount of capital available for investment in manufacturing industries. Additional cn,uses are the comparatively abundant water power in the state and its geooTar)hic 1 . b

ocat1on near N:ew York City, with which many of the manufacturing centers of Connecticut have direct water transportation facilities. ·Bridgeport, New Have?, and New London are seaports of considerable prormn~nce, and afford ample opportunities for ~omest1c coastwise commerce. In addition, the main line of the most important railroad system in New England traverses Connecticut and gives direct and adequate connection with all parts of the country.

Importance and growth of manufaotures.-Oonnecticut is preeminently a manufoctming state, and the growth and concentration of its population have been closely related to the increase in the importance of its manufacturing industries. During 1849-50 an average of 50, 731 wage earners, representing 13 .7 per cent of the total population, were employed in manufactures, while in 1909 an average of 210,792 wage earners, or 18.9 per cent of the total population, were so engaged. In 1849-50 the total value of the manufactures of the state, including the products of the neighborhoocl and hand industries, amounted to $47,115,000, while in 1909, exclusive of the value of products of the neighborhood and hand industries, it reached $490,272,000. These :figures represent increases of 315.5 per cent in number of wage earners and 940.6 per cent in value of products. During this period the gross value of products per capita of the total population of the state increased from $127 to $440. Nevertheless the state's proportion of the total value of products manufactured in the United States fell from 4.6 per cent in 1849-50 to 2.8 per cent in 1899 and 2.4 per cent in 1909.

The rank of Connecticut among the states in regard to the value of its manufactmed products was twelfth in 1909, as compared with eleventh in 1899, and fifth in 1849-50.

The following table gives the most important figures relative to all classes of mam1factures combined for the state as returned at the censuses of 1909, 1904, and 1899, together with the percentages of increase from census to census.

In 1909 the state of Connecticut had 4,251 manufacturing estnblishments, which gave employment to :tu

average of 233,871 persons during tl1e year and paid out $135, 7 56,000 in salaries and wn,ges. Of the persons em~ ployed, 210,792 were wage earners. ·

These establishments turne<l out products to the value of $490,272,000, to produce which materials costing $257,2591000 were used. 'I'he value added by manufactme was thus $233,013,000, which figure, as explained in the Introduction, best represents the net wealth created by manufacturing operations during the year.


In general, this table brings out the fact that the manufacturing industries of Connecticut as a whole showed greater development during the more recent five-year period, 1904-1909, than during the preceding five-year period, 1899-1904, although a marked inerease is shown for both periods in all items, except in the number of establishments from 1899 to 1904. During the later period the number of establishments increased 22.3 per cent, the average number of wage

earners 16.1 per cent, the value of products 32.8 per cent, and the value added by IDltnufacture 31.1 per cent.

As pointed out in the Introduction, it would be improper to infer tl1t1t m1111uf1wturns increased in volume to the ,ful1 oxLent indicated by these flgurns representing vt1lucR, since the increase shown is certainly due, in part, to the irn'reas0 that has taken place in the price of conunodii,ies.

The relative importance and growth of the leading manufacturing industries of the state are shown in the table on page 5.

It should be borne in mind in considering this table that the value of products in some of the industries involves a certain amount of duplication, clue to the use of the product of one establishment in the industry as material for another establishment.

In addition to the industries presented separately in the following table there are 20 other important industries, each of which had a value of products in 1909 in excess of $1,000,000. They are included under ''All other industries'' in the table because in some cases the operations of individual establishments would be disclosed if they were shown separately; in others, because the returns do not properly present the true condition of the industry, for the reason that it is more or less interwoven with one or more other industries, or because comparable statistics for the different census years can not be presented on account of changes in classification. These industries arc as follows: Belting and hose, leather; bicycles, motorcycles, and parts; boots and shoes, rubber; brick and tile; carpets and rugs, other than rag; dentists' materials; furnishing goods, men's; gas and electric fixtures and lamps and reflectors; gold and silver, reducing and refining, not

from the ore; house-furnishing goods, not elsewhere specified; iron and steel, steel works and rolling mills; iron and steel, bolts, nuts, w11shers, and rivets, not made in steel works or rolling mills; iron and steel, nails and spikes, cut and wrought, not made in steel ; works or rolling mills; phonographs and graphophones; rubber goods, not elscwhe.rc speciilod; screws, machine: screws, wood; sewing machines, cases, and attach· mentR; soap; and wire. Statistics, however, for tlie manufacture of furnishing goods, men's, gas and elec· tric :fixtures and lamps and reflectors, of rubber goods, not elsewhere specified, and of sewing machines, cases, and attachments arc presented in Table II for 1909. •

Connecticut ranked second among the states in the production of rubber boots i1nd shoes, measured by • value of products, 11ncl the three gold and silver . refineries of Connecticut turned out a greater value o! products than did those of any other state. •

Although a few industries predominate in ii;1portance it will be seen from T11ble II that there is, on ' .. the whole, a wide diversity in the manufacturing a~t!'l'l·. ties of the state. The most important industries listed in the following table, in which they arc arranged in the order of the value of products, are briefly c~n· sidered, by classification, in the paragraphs followrng the table.

Textiles.-The textile manufactures of the state, consisti~g of cotton goods, including cott011 small wares; silk and silk goods, including throwsters; woolen, worsted, and felt goods; and hosiery and knit goods, ?ut ex~lusive of cordage and twine, and shoddy, form ~ts leadmg manufacturing industry. Combined, these _<lllr branches gave employment to an average of ,J4,192 wage earners during 1900, or 16.2 per cent of th~ total for all manufactm~ing industries in the stn.to, an the value of their products amounted to $70,45G,OOO, or 14.4 per cent of the total value of manufactured products. Of the total value of products for these four branches of the textile industry, 34.4 per cent was contributed by the cotton mills 29·9

1 per cent by the silk mills, 27.5 per cent by th~

ho~ en and worsted mills, and s,g pe1· nenh by the os1ery and kniMi:ng mills; '

B'('(Lss and bronze prod1.icts.-This is the leading indiviclual industry of the state, measured by value of products, constituting 13.7 per cent of the total value of products for the state in 1909. It includes the manufacture of rolled brass and copper, which composed the major portion of the product, and of brass ware, in the manufacture of which Connecticut is particularly prominent. Brass castings, brass finishing, and bronze castings, 11lso included in this cln.ssification, form only a small part of the total output. At the census of 1904 Oonnecticu t reported more than fourfifths of the total value of the output of rolled brass and copper of the country, and also led in the production of brass ware, with over one-half of the total value of output. In 1909 it ranked first among the states in the combined value of brass and bronze products, reporting 44.6 per cen~ of 11he totfil f0r thl'I United Sta ties 1


Fonruln/ a,nd m(J,chine-shop prod1wts.--This industry is of greater importance in the. state thun is indicf1ted by the statist,ics, as some nuwhine shops manufacture~l a distindive product and were assigned to other class1-1ications. The most important product consists of hardware of which more tlrnn two-iif ths of the total

' value reported for the United States in 1909 was pro-duced in Connecticut. Some of the largest establishments, other than those producing hardware, were engaged in the manufacture of textile and metal-working machinery and internal-combustion engines.

Firearms and ammunition.-This industry is now mainly centralized in New Haven and Bridgeport. The increase in the value of products was much greater from 1899to1904 than from 1904to 1909, being 57.2per cent and 12.3 per cent, respectively, for the two fi.veyear periods. In 1904, exclusive of governmental establishments, almost four-fifths of the total value of the ammunition and over one-fourth of the total value of the firearms manufactured in the United States was reported from establishments located in this state. Connecticut was the leading state in the total value of products reported for the combined industries in 1909.

Silverware and plated ware.-In 1909 the combined products of this industry for the state formed over one-third of the total value for the country. The manufacture of plated ware comprises the principal part of this industry. In 1904 and 1909 over two-thirds of the total value of plated ware in the United States was produced in Connecticut.

Oo1'sets.-O£ the 17 establishments reported in 1909 as primarily engaged in the manufacture of corsets, 5 were located in Bridgeport and 9 in New Haven. The value of products for the industry increased from $5,591,000 in 1904 to $12,815,000 in 1909, a gain of $7 ,224,000, or 12\l.2 per cent, for the five years. This increase is noteworthy in view of tl1c fact that from 18\JO to l \)(J.:l the val ne of products decreased 18 .3 per cent. In 1904 and in 1909 Connecticut was the leading state in the production of corsets, reporting over one-third of the totfd vnlue of products for the lJnited States in hot.Ii yea1·s.

Antomoln'.lrs, inclmlinrt bodie8 and pa,1·ts.---'l'liis indusLr.v includes 8 establishments reporting the manufacture of automobiles and 20 establishments (with ahout one-fourth of the totnl value of products for the whole inclus~ry) reporting automobile bodies and parts as the most importimt product. A marked increase is shown in value of products and in value added by manufacture from 1904 to 1909. . Ontlery and tools, not elsewhere specified.-Connect-1cut ranked second in this industry in the United States in HlOfl, and in 1904 it ranked first among the states in tho vitlue of i~s manufactures of cutlery and edge tools, imd fourth m tools not elsewhere specified.

Hat~, furjelt.-The manufacture of hats in Connect~ icut was begun in 1780 at Danbury, which city is still

the lMding center of t.ho inth1st.ry. In 1904 and in 1909 this state w1tH socowl in imporLmwo iu the industry, with 2:3.G per cont of i.Jw i.,otnl value of products for the United Stn,tos in 1\)(}J ttllll 21. 7 por cent in 1909.

Electrical rnach·ini·ry, apparatus, anil supplies.-Tho exceptionally rapid progress during rocenb years in the use of electricity lrns croatml a demmi<l for appliances with which to utilize tllis onnrgy. 'l'he establishments engaged in thiH industry in Connecticut are devoted 1

primarily to the producLion of insulated wires and 1

cables an<l electric-light fixtures. Lumber and ti'llibm• prorlncts.-Under this classifica

tion ure includocl tho stntistics for ostn.blishmonts engaged in logging, ns well as for sn,wmills, planing mills

1

and wooden packing-box factories. About threefifths of the total vn.lno of products reported for the entire industry in the stato was contributed bv the planing-mill branch. "

Clocks and watches, i,ncln&ing ens es and materials.The stltte rnnkod first in tho total value of products for this industry in l!JOO. Nino of the 16 establish· ments in the stnte woro m1g11god primarily in the manufacturo of clocks. 'l'his branch of the industry in Connecticut datos frmn oarly in 1800, and much of its early development took plttce in that state1

where it has been largely ceni.;mlized. In 1904 nearly three-fourths of tho total value of the output o! clocks in the United St1ttes wits roportecl from Con· D:ecticut f n,ctories.

Of the fast 10 industries shown separately in .the • above table tho cotton-goods industry is the only one which occupies tho same position when mensurod by value added by m.mrnfocture as when measured by value of products. The positions of the first two, the foundry and uuichino-shop and the brass 11nd bronze products industries, aro reversed; tho firearms and ammunition industry oxcha.uges places with tho silk industry; and tho silvorwitro and plnted-ware industry takes sixth place instead of the woolen, worsted, and • felt goods industry, which lat.tor falls to ninth place. The cutlery indnst.ry becomes sovonth in order, havi~1i advanced from tenth place, nncl tl10 1urtornobilo m·. dustry rnovos from nini.;h t.o eighth place, whilo the manufacture of corHets clrops from eighth to tontli place.

This table shows also the percentages of increasofor these loading industries in rospect to value of produ~!s · and value added by manufacture. The automobile: industry showed o-reater rates of increase from 190l to 1909 in valueb of products and in value addeil by manufacture than any other of the importnnt: industries shown separately in the table, namely, 341)

· R k bl< per cent and 360 per cent, respectively. emar a . increases in both these items also are shown for thr manufacture of silverware and plated ware, corset' electrical machinery, apparatus, and supplies, tY.P~ writers and typewriter supplies, and paint and varnisu


Some striking differences appear among the several industries as respects the incrertse from 1899 to 1904 as compared with that from 1904 to 1909. All but six of the industries listed separately showed an increase from 1904 to 1909 in value in products, and all but eight an increase in value added by manufactm·e. None of the industries showing decreases are among the first 15 industries shown separately. From 1899 to 1904, 11 of the industries given separately showed losses in value of products, and 12 showed decreases in value added by manufn.cture. Of tho 15 most important industries, rne11sured by value of products, which are presented sepanitely, the silverware and the corset industries were the only ones tluit showed decreases during this period.

Persons engaged in manufacturing industries.-The following table shows for 1909 the disLribution of the number of persons engaged in manufactures, the average number of wage earners being distribu tecl by sex and age. It should be borne in mind, however, tlrnt the sex and age classification of the avernge number of wage earners in t;his and other t11blos is an estimate obtained by the method clescrihed in the Introduction.

Of the total number of persons engaged in 1111 m'.mufacturing industries, 3.9 per cent were proprietors and officials, 6 per cent clerks, imcl 90.1 per cent wage earners. In the bnkery and the printing ~ntl publishing industries the majority of the estitbhslnnents a.re small and the worl~ is clone to a 111rge <lXtent hy the proprietors or their immediate repre~enthatives, so that the proportion of persons engaged Ill t ese . d t . f 11" . . -m us r1es a mg m the class of propnetors

itllll ofl.icials is much higher than for most other industries or for all industries combine.cl. Similar conditions prevail to some extent in the manufacture of lumber n.nd timber products, whore the p1:oprietors and officials form 13.1 per cent of tho total number of persons engaged.

On nccount of the large average number of wage earners employed in the textile, the corset, and the brass m1d bronze industries, they show the smnllest proportions of proprietors and officials.

For all indust.ries combined, 73.4 per cent of the average nmnber of wage enrners were males 16 years of age n,nd over, 24 per cont females l (j years of age and over, mul 2.6 per cent persons under the age of 16. Nearly one-third of the totn,l number of fem.ale wage earners are employed in the textile industries. In the cotton-goods industry nearly two-filths of tl1e wage earners are women 16 years of age and over; in the hosiery n.ncl knit goods industry, about two-thirds; in the silk industry, nearly one-half; a.ncl in the woolen und worsted industry, over one-fourth.

In order to com1H1re the distribution of persons engaged in manufactures in 1009 with that shown at the census of 1904 it is necessary to use the classification employeJ at the earlier census. (See Introduction.) 'l'he following table makes this comparison according to occupational status:

Comparable figures arc not obtainable for 1899. The table shows a greater percentage of increase in the salaried employees than in the other two classes.

The following; table shows the average number of wage earners, distributed according to age periods, and in the case of those 16 years of age and over, according to sex, for 1909, 1904, and 1890. The averages for 1009 are estimated on the basis of the actual number reported for a single representative day. (Rtrn Introduction.)

'l'h:is table indicates that for all industrieH combined there has been only a slight change durinO' the 10 years in the proportion of male and fem~le wage 0t1.rners, although there has been a decided actual increase in the number of both classes of employees. In 1909 males 16 years of age and over formed 73.4 per cent of all wage earners, as compared with 73.1

It is evicl ent from these figures tlrnt for the great majority of wage earners employecl in the manufacturing industries of Connecticut the pmvailing hours of labor rnnge from 54 to 60 a week, only 8.4 })er cent of the total number being employed in estnblishrnents where the prevailing hours a.re less tluin 54 n, week, and but 1.4 per cent in estnJ>lishmr.ntR where more than GO hours n, week prevail.

The foundries and machine shops gnve employment to 37,736 wage earners, or more than twice as many as ltny other single industry in the state, and 96.2 per cent o~ these were employed from 54 to 60 hours per week, inclusive. In most of the other industries employing large numbers of wage earners, employment was :for a week of over 54 but less than 60 hours. Of those employed in the tobacco manufacturing industry, 95.3 per cent were employed 48 hours per week or less, antl of those employed in railroad repair shops and in

printing and publishing, .53.1 per cent and 4 7. 7 per cent, respectively. Nearly 70 per cent of the wage earners employed in making fur-felt hats worked less than 54 hours a week. 'rhe majority of the wage earners in the bakery and flour-mill and gristmill industries and in establishments engaged in the manufacture of neeclleR, pins, and hooks and eyes were in plants operating 60

·hours a week, while for the majOTity of the wage e1n·ners in the gas industry the prevailing hours of labor were over 60 hours a week.

1

mber of wage 'earners were employed in these pfaces. The :figures indieate that not only has a consi<lemble change taken place during the last decade in the · relntive importance of the mmrnfacturing inLhrntries of the difl'ercnt groups of cities and bornlwlis havino· oycr 10,0ljo inhitbitants, but the eombh~ed imlust;ies of such places have gainell consiLlcr-nbly 011 those of the distl'icts outside. ,

'l'he increase in the population of the clif1'cl'ent placeR lrns iiffocted the grouping in the table. In 1900 Meriden and StamfOl'd were included in the group of cities and boroughs having from 10,000 to 25,000 inhabitants, but both now belong to the group made up of cities 1111ving between 25,000 and 100,000 inlrnbitants. New Haven was the only city in the state in 1900 which had over 100,000 inhabitants, but in 1910 Bridgeport had reached that group. Prior to 1910 Middletown, Torrington, and Willimantic en.ch had less than 10,000 inhabitants, and their statistics, therefore, were included with the districts outside in 1899.

1'he group of cities having over 100,000 inhabitants shows a decided gain in its proportions of the total, largely as the result of the addition of Bridgeport, while the other two groups show losses. Of the total value of the products reported for the state in 1909, 16.2 per cent was reported from the eight cities and boroughs lrnving from 10,000 to 25,000 inhitbita,nts, 28.2 per cent from the five cities having between 25,000 and 100,000 inhabitants, and 23.8 per cent from the two cities ha.ving more than 100,000 inhabitants. Tlie corresponding proportions for 1899 were 19 pei; cent, 31.4 per cent, nnd 11.1 per cent, respectively.

'l'he popuh\tion for 1910 and 1900 of the 15 cities and boroughs wluch had 10,000 inhabitants or over in 1910 is given in the following statement.

During the later period the average number of wage earners employed in the manufacturing industries of each place except New London and Ansoni11 increased much less, relatively, than the value of products. In New London there wa.s an actual decrease in the number of wage earners.

Bridgeport, the foremost city of the state in manufactmes, shows an increase in 1909, fLS compared with 1904, of 47.1 per cont in value of ptoducts and 32.2 per cent in average number of wage earners. 'l'he gn,i.n in value of products was due largely to tho increases in the output of automobiles, col'Sets, electricml machinery, foundry and machine-shop products, and gold and silver reducing and refining. Compared with other manufacturing cities of the country, Bridgeport ranked thirty-ninth in 1899, thirty-fifth in Hl04, and thirtythird in 1909 in value of products. In 1909 the foundries and machine shops of this city turned out products valued at $9,752,000, or 14.9 per cent of the corresponding total for the state. Tho corset industl'y was also of considerable importance, with an output vnluod tit $6,899,000, or 53.8 per cont of the total for this industry in tho stnto, while tho 08tablislm1e11ts engaged in the manufocturo of electrical nrnchinery, apptiratus, and supplies reported product::! valued 1it $3,321,000, or 33.8 per cont of tho stnto total. Othor industries of importance in which this city produced over half of the value of products for the state are the manufacture of phonogrnphs and grnphophones and of sewing machines and attachments.

New Haven, tho secornl city of the st1ite in importance when measured by vnluo of products, Ahows an increase from 1904, to 1909 of 28.8 per cont in value of products ancl 9.8 por cent in avorngo number of wage earners. These gains were duo lo,rgoly to increases in the production oJ automobiles, firearms tU1<1 o,mmunition, corsets, rubber goods, and foundry and machinoshop products (including hardware), and in tho output of slaughtering and meat-packing establishments. The value of the clocks and wo,tches mnde in New Haven during 1909 is considerable, but exnct :figures can not be given without disclosing individual operations. The statistics for some of the most important industries are included with "All other industries" because they can not be presented separately in Table I without disclosing the operations of individual establishments. Among these industries~ each of which reported products amounting to more than $1,000,000 in value, are automobiles, including bodies and parts; boots and shoes, including cut stock and findino·s ·boots and shoes, rubber; boxes, fancy and papm~ 'clocks and watches, including cases nnd matorin,l; confectionery; corsets; firearms and ammunition; gas, illuminating and heating; rubber goods, not elsewhere specified; and slaughtering and meat packing.

Waterbury shows an increase of 55.6 per cent in value of products and 30.9 per cent in number of wuge

en.rners in l 909 as compared with 1904. Unlike the manufactures of tlrn other ciLies of importance in tlto ~tnto, those of vVatorbury are largely eoncontmtocl in a single industry, that of brass nnd bronze manufnctures, which in 1909 reported products amounting to $31,462,000, or 62.5 per cent of the total for the city. Twenty-four and throe-tentl1s per cent of tho total value of rolled brass nnd copper and 42.2 per cent of tho total vnluo of bruss ware manufactured in the United States during HJ(1'1 were reported from this city, and in 1909, of the value of all brass and bronze products, 21 per cont wns reported from this city. Over twofifths of the total vrtlue of clocks and watches manufn,cturod in the stnte during 1U09 was reported from V\T1itcrbury. <Hher industries of importance in the city are the manufncture of foundry und machine-shop products; gas and electric fixtures, and lumps o,nd roilec[,ors; noodles .. pins) nnd hooks and eyes; and buttons.

Ifortforcl shows im increase of 56.6 per cent in value of products nncl :rn.4 por cent in number of wilge enrners from 1904 to rnon. 'I'lrnse gains are due lnrgoly to tlw increaso irt tlw manufn(l(,m·e of automobiles, fournlry urlll nrnchine-shop 1n·oducts, rubber goods, nncl Lypewrito;rs awl typowriter supplies, tho four leading industries in t,Jic eity. The major portion of 1,ho total value of the output for tho st1ite of dentists' materials) nails and spikos not made in steel works or rolling mills, leather belting, and nrnchine screws was reported from Hartford.

Of the other cities given separately in the above t,nble Norwich shows tho greatest relative increase from 1904 to 1909 iu value of products, 55.9 per cont, and New Britain the greatest in number of wage earners, 34.2 per cent. 'I'hc manufacturing interests of New Britain nre so centralized in tho manufacture of hardware tlrnt the output of this industry repre~ sents 52.9 per cent of the totnl value of products for the city. Forty-four and two-tenths per cent of the value of the cutlery nnd tools made in the state in 1909 was reported from New Britain. In Norwich the textile industries are of most importance.

'rho manufncture of brass and bronze products is the most important industry in Ansonia and in 'l'orrington. 'rl1e silverware and plated-ware industry is the most important in 1\foriden. In H>09 this cHy reported G5.n per cent of tho total vnlue of gas and eleetric fixtures and lamps and reflectors manufactured in the state. Tho leading industries in Naugatuck are the manufacture of Tubber boots and shoes and of rubber goods. The manufacture oJ men's furnishing goods (elastic goods) is the most important industry in Middletown. In Danbury the leading industry is the manufacture of fur-:felt hats, the output of which in l~)Qg was valued nt $7,114,683, and formed 68.4 per cent of the totaJ value reported for this industry in the state. The manufacture of locks ma.kes tho foundry nnd machine-

MANUFACTllRES-CONNECTICUT. 13

The most important distinction shown is that between corporate and all other forms of ownership. For all industries combined 35.3 per cent of the total number of establishments were in 1909 under corporate ownership, as against .64.7 per cent under all other forms. The correspondmg :figures for 1904 were 34.l per cent and 65.9 per cent, respectiv~ly. In moo the establishments operated by corporn,trons reported 90 per cent of the totaJ value of inanufncturecl products for the state, as agninst 10 per cent for those under all other forms of ownership, while in 1004 the corresponding figures were ~5·? per cent ~nd .14.8 per cent, respectively. This gam m the relative ;mportancc of establishments under corpornte ownerslnp was lnrgcly due to increases in the manufacture of automobiles, brass and bronze products, corsets, cotton goods, firearms and ammunition, foundry ancl machine-shop products, silk ancl silk goocls, ltml silverw11re and plated ware. All but three-tenths of 1 per cent of the value of silverwnre ancl plated ware and all but five-tenths of 1 per cent of the vnlue of electrical machinery, apparatus, and supplies reported for 1909 were returned by esta.blishments under corporn.te ownership. There are three other iwlustries shown in the titble in which over 95 per cent of the value of products was reported by this clas8 of eRtahliRhments.

Size of establishments.--The tendency for rnnnufacturing to become conee,ntmtecl .in lnrge estn.blishment8, or the reverse, is a mn.tter of interest from the standpoint of industrial organization. In order to ~hrow some light upon it the following table groups the establislm.1ents according to the vnJuc of their products. The table also shows the 1wemgc si:;;c of establishments for all industries combined iirnl l'or important industries sepiirately as measured by number of wage earners, value of products, and value added by manufacture. 'rhe totn.ls for n.11 industries are shown for the last two censuses, while for certain important industries figures are given for 1909 only.

This table shows that., in 1909, of the 4,251 establishrnents only 1::13, or 2.2 per cent, hacl a value of products exceeding $1,000,000. These 93 establishments, however, employed an average of 95,373 wage earners, or 45.2 per cent of' the total number in all establishments, and reported 49.3 per cent of the total

vrilue of products and 44.7 per cent of the total value ndcled by mmmf acture.

On the other hand, the very small establishmentsthat, is, those having a value of products less than $5,000-constituted a considerable proportion (30.9 per cent) of the total number of establishments, but the value of their products (lmounted to only sixtenths of 1 per cent of the total. The great bulk of the numufocturing was reported by establishments having a product valued at not less than $100,000 each.

It will be seen from the table that during the five years from 1004 to 1!)09 there was a considerable increase, us m.easurecl by value of products, in the reln,tivo importance of tlw largest estaLlishmentsthose reporting products of not less than $1,000,000 in vaJue-nncl a decrease in the importance of nll other cl1isses except that having a value of products of less thn.n $5,000, the proportion in that class remaining unchanged. Of the 03 establishments whose products in 1909 exceeded $1,000,000 in value, 13 were eng~tgecl in the manufacture of brass ancl bronze products, 4 in the manufacture of cotton goods, 3 in the manufacture of cutlery and edge tools, 14 in t.he manufacture of foundry and machine-shop products, 6 in the manufoct.nro of silk goods, and Ii in the numufoctme of silverware nncl plat.eel ware.

'!'he fad, that, the nverng<» v1llue of products por est.ri,h]islrnw11t increased from $106,150 to $115,331, and tlrn vitlue ndclecl by manufacture from $51,130 t.o $54,814, can not l)e tnlrnn as in itself indicating it tendency toward concentration. These incronsecl values sho°wn may be, and prob11bly arc, due wholly or in p!Lrt to the increase that lrns taken p1nce in the prices of commodities.

The average number of W!Lge earners per est11blishment decrcasecl from 52 to 50. The table shows further th11t ·when the size of establishments is measured by the average value of products per establishment, the bakery, the lumber, and the printing and publishing inclustries are conducted chiefly in rather smn.11 ostablishments, while the manufacture of brass and bronze products, cotton goods, cutlery, electrical m1whinery, foundry and machine-shop products, fnrfelt, hats, silk and silk goods, silverware, and woolen and worsted goods is mn,inly carried on in lnrger establishments.

Of the 4i251 establishments reported for all industries 9.6 per cent employed no wage eamers; 44.6 per cent, from 1 to 5; 21 per cent, 6 to 20; 9.6 per cent, 21 to 5.0; and 15.2 per cent, over 50. The most numerous smg~e group consists of the 1,896 establishments emp1oymg fro:m I to 5 wage earners and the next of the 893 establishments employing f;om 6 to 20. There were 84 establishments that employed over 500 wage earners,)nd 37 that employed over 1,000.

Of the total number of wage earners, 60.9 per cent were in establishments employing over 250 wage earners. Tho single group having the largest numb<lr of employees was the group comprising establishments employing over 1,000 wage earners. Of the 11 industries represented in this group for which sepai·ate presentation is made in the table, the foundries and machine shops reported the largest number of wag<l earners, 13,102. Five other incl-ustries, howe-ver, exceeded the


foundries and machine shops in the proportion of their wage earners in this group, namely, fm'larms and ammunition, brass anrl bronze products, clocks and watches, corsc~ts, and eutlery and tools. The industries listed in this table, but not in the preceding one, namely, automobiles, clocks and watches, corsets, firearms and ammunition, hosiery and knit goods, musical instruments, and paper and wood pulp, are all industries in which comparatively large establishments do most of the business, as appeo,rs from the classification according to the number of wage earners.

Expenses.-As stated in the Introduction, the census does not purport to furnish figures that can be used for determining the cost of manufacture and profits. Facts of interest can, however, be brought out concerning the relative importance of the different elasses of expenses which make up the total.

The following table shows for 1909, in percentages, the distribution of expenses among the classes indicated for all industries combined and for certain important industries separately. The figures on which the percentages are based appear in Table II, page 30.

This table shows that, for all industries combined, 59.8 per cent of the total expense was incurred for materials, 31.6 per cent for services-that is, salaries and wages-and but 8.6 per cent for other purposes. These proportions vary greatly in the different industries.

For certain industries tho Census Bureau collects, by moans of special schedules, details regnrding tho quantity and value of materials and products and tho number and classes of machines used in manufactures which do not appear on the general schedule. Certain data of this character for nine important industries in Oonnent,irmt arfl lrnre prm:ented.

Textiles.-The following statement shows the number of producing spindles, looms, knitting machines, sets of woolen cards, and wool-combing machines used by the four most important textile industries in Connecticut during 1909, 1904, and 1899, and indicates the progress during tho decade of the four industries combined as well as each of the branches separately.

1 Statistics for 1809 not avnilahie for two cstabllshmonts nrnnufaetnrlng Colt good8.

The above table shows that from 1904 to 1909 the number of producing spindles increased 82,625, or 5.5 per cent, and the number of looms 4,521, or 16 per cent, while lmitting machines show a decrease of 56, or 2.2 per cent. The number of sots of woolen cards decreased 29, or 5.3 per cont, and the number of wool-combing machines increased 8, or 32 per cent. Of the total number of producing spindles reported in 1009 for these four industries combined, 1,241,524, or 77.9 per cent, woro in cotton mills; 118,302, or 7.4 per cent, in silk mills; l7D,688, or 11.3 per cont, in woolen, worsted, and felt mills; and 53,904, or 3.4 per cent, in hosiery and knitting mills. The cotton industry made the largest absolute gain in number of spindles during the last five years, tho increase being 90,609, or 7. 9 per cent. The largest relative gain in number of spindles, however, was in tho silk industry, whore there was an increase of 11,598, Dr 10.9 per cont. The falling off in the number of spindles in knitting mills is due to the tendency to purchase yarn already spun. In addition to the ~pindles shown in the table there were 13, 756 producmg spindles employed in the manufacture of cordage and twine in 1909. There were 3,1:)67 more l?on:s used in tho cotton industry and 746 mwe ii+ the silk mdustry in 1909 than in 1904.

1 Excluding statistics for two ostahlishmcnt;s, to avoid disclosure of indiri<luul operations.

Tho cotton consumed in this industry in HlO!J amounted to 57, 723,360 pounds, costing $7,484,047, 1111d

representing an increase over 1904 of 4,444,878 pounds, or 8.3 per cont, in quantity, and $623,481, or 0.1 per cont, in cost. In 1909 the quantity and cost of domestic cotton represented 89.5 per cent and 85.D per cent, respectively, of the total quantity and cost of all cotton consumed, proportions somewhat smaller than the corresponding figures for 1904, which were 93.4 per cent nncl 91 per cent, respectively. The consumption of foreign cotton increased considerably between 1899 and 1909, although a pronounced decrease occurred from 1899 to 1904. Cotton waste purchased increased for tho decade as a whole, although a decrease is shown for the period from 1899 to 1904,


Ea<'h kind of product presented separately shows an increase in value from 1904 to 1909, with the exception of ticks, denims, and stripes. Twills and sateens made the largest gain during the period, the increase in viduc being $1,740,520, or 124.7 per cent. Plain cloths for printing and converting were the most important class of fabrics manufadured in both qunutity and value, although the output shows a decrease in moo of 7,24:4,235 square yards as compared with 1 !)()4 aml 830, 120 squn.re yflrda n:; compared with 18!)(); there has, however, been an increase dlll'ing the decade in the value of tliis clas:,; of products. Twills nncl sateens stand next to plain cloths in the quantity mnnufoctured in Hl09. The increase for the d<wadc in. the output of this clllss of goods was :21, 10;3 ,585 sq uarc yards, or 107 per cent, the greater part of which occurred between 1904 and 1D09. The inC'ron.ses in the quantity imd value of sheetings and shirtings wmc very much less than the gains shown for twills and sateens. Fancy woven fabrics, which are made in considerable quantities, show a decrense of 8,'.2fl6,535 square yards, or lG.1 per cent, for the 10-ycar period, and an increase in v11lue of $2.5:2,491, or 16.!) per cent. It. will be noted that the value of the thread manufactured exceeds that reported for any other class of products.

Silk and silk goods, including throwsters.-The second industry of importance in respect to value of proclucts among the textile industries of Connecticut is the manufacture of silk and silk goods. The state has one of the lftrgest factories in the country nrn.nufocturing broad silks and. othn woven silk goods. Of the 47 establishnrnnts report.ell in 1900 a number arc cmgllgcd solely in throwing silk for otherK on contmct.

Tho gunntity and cost of the various materials used in the silk mills and the q uantit\r mid value of the different cln.ssos of products rep01'.t.ecl for 1009, Hl04, nnd l.Sfl!) are shown in the next table.

Cot!.011 and n~ercerizecl yarns formed tho pri11cipnl nrnterrnl. accordmg to weight, and showed the most marked mcreasc, while raw silk wns the material of greatest value.

Three grou~s of products Pach furnished. nearly an equal proporti~n of the totnl value, namely, velvets and plushns, with $5,!J.5D,17fi, or 28.8 per cent of the total; bro:id sill~s, witI: $.5,890,:2:33, or 28 per cont; and mnclnne twist, scwrng, emhroiclerv wash frin()'

'rim increase cl uring the decade in tho total cosb of ~lll1terials was proportionally greater than the increase Ill the value of products. Both the quantity and the cost of foreign wool consumed lu~s decreased since 1809, nit.hough there has been a slight. gain in quantity since 1\104, From 1809 to 1 D04 there w11s a decided g11in in ~he quantity and cost of domestic wool consumed, buf; lrom I 004 to I 900 11 decrease occurred in both items. [~?r the dec11de the quantity of domestic wool decreasetl slightly, although its cost. shows a considerable increase. The most conspicuous gain was for worsted yarns pur:hased, which incre11sed during the last five-year penod, 1904-1909, 99.8 per cent in quantity and 125.4 per cent in cost.

The quantity of all-wool woven goods reported, whether woolen or worsted, was 17,087,B03 square ynrcls in 1909, 18,377,887 square yards in 1904, n11d 11 1540,80!) square yn,rcl:,; in J8\Hl. The combhwd value of these classes ol' goods represented 78 per cent of the total value of products for the industry in HHHJ, 7:2.8 per cent in Hl04, and 63.1 per cent in 189fJ. Tho quantity and value of union tweeds increased from 18\)!) to Hlll4, hut cleereasecl from Hl04 to rnon, with the result t.hat ho th items were smaller in 1 $JOH than in l 80D. 'rho output of rtll other union or cotton-mixed woven goods docreascd steadily from J 8DD to 1 DOD, ancl their value was also lower in JD09 than in ] 890, illthough somewhat, higher than in Hl04. For each ol' the two classes into which goods woven on cotton warps nrc divided in the table, the values declined regulnrl.v from 1899 to Hl09, but the output of wooliilling cassimeres and jertns was greatest in 190!) and tlwt of the cotton-wm·p goocls included under the heitcl of "All other" was greatest in 1904.

Hosiery and knit goods.-Twenty-one estn.blishments-three less than in 1904 nnd four le.ss than in 18DD-wcre reported in this industry n.t tho census of 1 DOD, The quantity and cost of the principnl materials used and tho qunntity itnd value of tho procluds reported for the hosiery and knit-goods inclmitry at the last three censuses were as follows:

The consumption of domestic cotton was 26 per cent less in HlOO than in Hl04. Because of tho demand for long fiber the quantity of foreign cotton increased :~2.7 per cent from Hl04 to 1909. 'J'he consumption of both domestic and foreign wool decreased, the qmmtity reported being 066, 738 pounds less in 1909 than in 19°'1. vVaste anJ nails show the largest gain, the increase during the last :five years being 116.6 per cent in quantity and 178.9 per cent in cost. Both the quantity and the cost of cotton and woolen, worsted, and merino yarns purchased in 1909 were greater than in 1904.

The gain shown in both quantity and value of hose and half hose during the 10-year period is marked, although the quantity decreitsed considerably from rno4 to 1909. The growth in the production of merino and mixed shirts and drawers is noticmtble; there was, however, a falling off in the production of, all-wool underwear.

'Exclmling statistics for one establishment, to avoid disclosure of individnal operations.

'Incl11de1l with gasoline.

This table shows a remarkable increase in the number of machines ma.nufacturecl and also in their value. The increase in value was, however, somewhat greater relatively than that in number, so that the averao·e

b

value per machine in rnon, $2,526, wns higher than in 1D04, when it was $2,354. The value of all other proclucts reported increased even more rapidly than that of the complete machines, on account of the increased production of bodies and parts. In 1 OO!l there were 20 establishments primarily engaged in making bodies arnl parts, RR compared with l in HJ04.

Although the electric machine was the type first produced in Connecticut, practically all machines built in the stn,tc in HlO\J were of the gasoline type. ·

A detailed statement by cl11sses of the automobiles manufactured is not presented, becaiuse to do so would disclose the opemtions of individual establishments Touring cars rank first in number, runabouts second. and closed pleasure and family vehicles third.

The cost of hatters' fur, which wns tho principal material reported, reprosontod ~Hl.4 per cent of the total cost of all materials in 190\l irnd about the same proportion in 1!)04 and 180\l.
