Although it hss been in operation only since the first of the year-the new plant of 'the Portland Woolen Mills company at St. Johns, has already surpassed the expectations of those who were con nected with the old mill, and la dally In creasing its output -and decreasing the cost of this product! - i - ' For the first month after the machin ery wm stsrted msny changes had. to bt made and the results were chiefly of a patience, trying' aort. but every week aitfee February 1 has brought greater efficiency In both worksra and machin ery and, at present the plant ia doing work that the old mill never Approached. The St Johns mill was. completed in December, 104, -with' new machinery throughout. It was located In the cra ter of a five-acre tract near the St. Johns water front, and provisions were made so that no other mill or factory could buUd within 100 feet of it. The invest ment of 1210,000, , which was i required to build 'and equip the plant, was made almost entirely by Portland men who were convinced, that . the mill would prove a profitable Investment in - time. Among the leaders who made the new mQl possible are: W. M. Ladd, W. F. Burrell, W. P. Olds and E. L. Thompson. W. K. Pettis of San Francisco waa prac tically the only large stockholder not a resident, of the city, and la still. Charles Carter waa placed' in charge of the plant's operation, and .B. It. Thompson waa.. made general manager, secretary and treasurer. - Cant apply -The old workers who had been em ployed by the company at Sellwood re turned and took charge of tbe- new ma-4 cblnery, others were secured, and the mill started. From the first the demand for. woolens was above the capacity of the mill, and thla- remains true, the company having the last week refused an order fog C$,000 yards of flannel. Ths present output is from. St to per cent above that ot the Sellwood mill, though the machinery and working force is practically the same.- The difference has been secured by improved methods and machinery and partly by the adop tion of the piece work system. At pres ent the 'output la about 4.4,00 yards of woolens a month; this includes ths heavy macktnaw cloth and other weaves for the far north.: There will be used 1.000,000 pounds of wool during ' ths year, the average price of which will range from to to 14 cents a pound. The wools preferred "vary with the class of the work to be done, but the valley enropsnires ana tne eastern Oregon Mer inos are chiefly bought. - Vasty Xmployesi Big- FayroU. There are paid in salaries to the IS) men and girls employed about I7S.0O a year. Ail of ths departments have been placed on the pleoe work system, ana me cniez atocauioiders have adopted the policy -of securing the best 'hands and paying thera - liberally. - , The new machinery and the speed of th engine has mads even a moderate scale a aatla factory one, aa the output .has greatly increased, but in any department that falls behind and prevents the workers from making good wages a -change is made and a higher scale allowed. The mill makes a specialty of woolen fabrics for the dress goods trade, of carriage cloth a, blanketa and nu naws. In all of these lines ths demand la more than equal to the aupply, and the 'product of the mill has been recog nised aa standard wherever sold. In a recent issue of ths Pacific Coast Manu facturers'. Journal, published at San Francisco, the editor stated that In all his years of experience with woolens he had never handled better fabrics or manufacture than when examining the products of ths Portland woolen mills. .. Aajmal Oatpa.. V. . ' Ths ' value of the annual output of the mill la estimated at I2BO.0OO, when the present machinery la running day and nlcbt. ' .Thla change waa recently adopted when it waa found impossible to keep up with tne orders, and every hour of the - 4 . the big engines " throb and ths busy looms rattler and snap. . "We built the plant with the idea of expansion In mind," said Mr. Thompson yesterday, "and the factory is planned ao that additions can be added as needed and from the demand, and the efficiency of the present plant, I believe auch an increase must be made oerore long, even though - the present establishment has hardly begun work.- ' . It is the intention or in management to make the mill alt an attractive one. and the 40 feet of land between the mill and the atreet -will be planted to lawn and flower bed a, and later ' the entire grounds win be parked. The capital atocg oi in company is comoosed of $176,000 common stock and 1176.000 per cent preferred stock. The stock haa not oeen soia in diocks oi less than 15,000, thus keeping the manage ment of the company in the handa - of men of affairs, who were able to. assist the enterprise by their experience and financial atandlng. Incidentally the mm ha greatly aided the growth of St. Johns and lifted prop erty values aa well. Many of the em ploye Of ' the mill have made their homea in ou jonns ana pougnt property there: a large part of the annual wage expenditure of $75,000 goes to the St. Johns merchanta, and as a iodestone for other enterprises the mill has proved a moat attractive property.
