Croft“ It Knapp.
Shop No. 2, owned by this firm down
on Water street. in view of the Sound.
has undergone a tmnsformation within
the past two months. and at this mo-
ment presents a picture of life and ani-
mation which few not accustomed to
think of the matter can reuine. An
addition of 55 feet and three storia high
has been made to the structure. which
is now 157 feet long. and the various
floors are equipped so completely as to
increase the firm‘s capacity to 100 dozen
hats per day. Anotioeable {centre in
the curling. finishing and pmkingroorns
is the space secured to workmen in
which to operate. Besides that. the fine
ventilation which plenty of windows
affords, for it is hot work making hate
in summer time. The emcee of the
company which are now at the south
end of the building and were never ade-
quate to the requirements of the concern.
will be removed to the north end. first
floor. where most liberal ideas in all that
belongs to a Subclass businm ofllce
have been consulted and adopted. 0n
the third floor are wash rooms for the
men, and various contrivsncee for their
comfort and convenience. all showing
the firm‘s interest in their numerous em-
ployee. Mr. Crofut has, among other
things studied out a way to save fuel in
the heating of irons for the use of finish-
ers. By his plan the irons never touch
the coal, but by means of ablast furnace
flame is forced upon them keeping them
at a red best constantly. By means of
a. steel trough or leader, these red hot
irons can be passed to any floor ocf the
building instantly. and do not have to
be carried in person by the men as for-
merly. Time. strength and some pa-
tience is thus saved. The system of the
shop is very complete. and workmen are
not obliged to wait the conventional
seven o‘clock whistle to begin operations
in the morning. but may do so at six.
“The consequence is most of the men
finish a regular day’s work early in the
afternoon. and are in their good clothes
on the street or anywhere else they
please, contented and happy. The com-
pany‘s orders are sufficient to keep
wheels moving all summer and autumn.
