I f History af Hat Making. ' llat Making— rsprriallj the makr- ' ing of for hats— is one of the oldest I branches of American nianufiicturea. * In lOOB tite General Assembly of Virginia off-red a premium of ten pounds r of tobneep for every good fur or felt ' hat made'in the provin'pri About ten * years later certain hatters of Massachusetts applied to the general court far " exclusive' privilege for their craft to ■* that colony. These were promised as " soon as they "ahould make good hats, y and soil them its cheap as. those from other parte." Inl675 tlie exportation " or wool and raccoon fors from tho * provance was prohibited. In 1704 the 10 lblt-makvni of Dcmisylrauia wtohrd to "• prvent, lij law, the exportation of all for* necessary to' their business. In 17.il hat making in Use province lutd r increased to such an extent that tho * listtcre of Itondou petitioned Parliament to prohibit the exportation of * hats front America. In New YfHc! * ami Now England 10.000 hats were mamifaclurud annuallr. In Boston j '2 there wefe ns many as ten hatters, one I 1L" of whom turned out no kralhsu forty j II hats a week. Accordingly a law was - s" passed forfeiting all exported hate, ] f: inflicting a penally of £SOO for any 1 siteh Olfense, and £40 ujhio any person ] knowingly aiding ii This law re- j •" piain'cd In force until the Revolutionary i war. From such beginnings the hat; f ' trade of ihis country has grown lo be j an imnoriant branch of home in, 1., -loan important (if industry.

In 1701 the vnhte of liats made to the United States was fifteen millions of dollars, but from that Unto for tlie next | century the business grew lea* gradually, until in IStO about nine inildollars' worth were produced. the nianulhcture will aggregate now' wo lutve no nxguta of knowing, but It must be much larger tout tweutyflvo years ago.
