Years of study and experimentation were spent before machinery was invented that was practical for knitting, and it took more years before the public could be induced to discard Its old muslin or red flannel" underwear and accept the newfangled knitted garments. In a tiny wooden shack the two pioneers set up their two primitive kbit-tin- g machines and went to work. They had no assistants, either to operate the machines or to sell and distribute the finished knit goods. After spending the day at their machines they would start out with their mechandise piled Into a little handcart, peddling from door to door, since they could find no retail storekeeper who was willing to take the risk of stocking up with any knitted garments. The building In which the two pioneers established their mill has long since been demolished to make room for a more modem structure and there is no trace of the actual machinery used. It is interesting to note, however, that from its small beginning as the site of Americas first knitting mill Cohoes has grown to be one of the principal centers of production of knitted underwear and outerwear in the country. More than twenty of the leading underwear knitting companies operate plants there, turning out thousands of dozens of garments daily. oo 1 Subscription Ratea One Year Six Months Three Months i i Entered at the Post i k i Office MAINTAINS ROADS $2 50 CHEAPLY 1.25 The first cost of a permanent pave.85 ment is important but maintenance is a still more important matter.
