Bridges?

[edit]

Is there a list of bridges over this river anywhere? I shot a roll of film of some of the bridges here, but can't figure out what I'm looking at now that I'm scanning the shots in. - Denimadept (talk) 02:53, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Peters Cartridge Company

[edit]

I have revised the history section (the information might alternatively be included in the Hydrography section) to clarify the relationship of the ammunition manufacturing companies using the Little Miami River's hydropower potential near King's Mills. The site on the west side of the river was originally used as a grist mill operated by Isaac Stubbs. It was purchased in 1877 by the owner of the Goes Station powder mill to build a larger powder mill. The company town of Kings Mills was built to provide housing for powder mill employees, but technology of the era was evolving from muzzle-loading black powder firearms to cartridge firearms. Peters Cartridge Company started as a subsidiary operation of the powder mill on the west bank of the river. After an explosion in 1890 destroyed many of the early cartridge company buildings, new structures for cartridge production were built on the east side of the river to separate them from the explosion risks of gunpowder manufacture on the west side of the river. While the cartridge company on the east side of the river expanded to embrace the emerging technology of smokeless powder cartridges, the old powder mill on the west side of the river became obsolete. The newer technology, with reduced risk of explosions, used chemicals of greater environmental concern than the old powder mill. The privately-owned modifier is appropriate to exclude consideration of the United States Army Frankford Arsenal in Philadelphia within the spatial distribution of ammunition manufacturing between the Union Metallic Cartridge Company of Connecticut and the Western Cartridge Company near St. Louis.

Thanks for the explanation. That's really helpful. – Minh Nguyễn 💬 10:24, 4 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Loveland Frogman

[edit]

A recent edit included the frogman. This is a legend in the loveland area. It's as big as the Loche Ness Monster and bigfoot here. I reverted the edit and thought it best to talk about it here. Maybe a legend section, if it needs to be here at all. It's been in local media, Unexplained Mysteries and other places. Not really sure if legends like this belong. Many in the Loveland Area believe in it. Here's a local story: https://www.wlwt.com/article/in-loveland-the-legend-of-a-humanoid-frog-lives-on/12773517 In conclusion, I reverted an edit and brought the discussion here. Discuss away.

I stand corrected, the Loveland Frog is already here. P37307 (talk) 04:41, 13 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
