Regarding coopers in Schuyler Co:
Good wages were earned by expert coopers, as they were paid by the piece.
A whiskey barrel that sold for
$1.25 netted the cooper 62 1/2 cents, and a good man could make four or
five in a day, and some could turn
out six. Fifteen cents was paid for flour barrels, and an average day's
work was ten barrels. Then there
was what was called "nest work," a half barrel, a quarter barrel, and a
keg, one inside the other.
Ham barrels, with a capacity of fifty gallons, netted the cooper 37 1/2
cents each, and slack hogsheads
were made for 75 and 80 cents each.
White oak timber was used exclusively for pork and whisky barrels, and
red or black oak for the other
barrels.
