"Crider & Son, engaged in the manufacture of boxes and dressed lumber at Bellefonte, are among the most prominent operators in lumber in this section. They own and control upwards of sixteen thousand acres of timbered land in Centre County, and at Snow Shoe and Glen Harris have two great saw-mills, whose capacity exceeds sixty thousand feet of lumber daily. They are also large burners of charcoal, and in their various enterprises employ more than two hundred and fifty men."
