===Maple syrup, Crane family=== The Garrettsville-Hiram Chamber of Commerce reports that at the beginning of the 20th century, Garrettsville was the largest center in the world for the processing of [[maple syrup]]. This was due largely to the efforts of Arthur Crane, who canned this maple tree product at a cannery on Windham Street.<ref name="Chamber" /> Crane's son, Clarence Arthur (C.A.) Crane, grew up in Garrettsville. The younger Crane married Grace Edna Hart in the village on June 1, 1898. In 1899, Grace gave birth to [[Hart Crane|Harold Hart Crane]], who later became renowned as a poet.<ref name="OHC Crane">{{cite encyclopedia |url=http://www.ohiohistorycentral.org/entry.php?rec=2634 |title=Clarence Arthur Crane |encyclopedia=Ohio History Central: An Online Encyclopedia of Ohio History |access-date=August 31, 2007}}</ref> Clarence Crane and his family left Garrettsville in the 1900s. Clarence continued to work in the maple sugar and candies industry, having started out in the industry working for his father. In 1912, Clarence Crane and his company, the Queen Victoria Chocolate Company, invented [[Life Savers]] candy.<ref name="Chamber" /><ref name="OHC Crane" />
