Other industries in Windsor in the early 1900s included a broom factory and a button factory. In 1919 a chicken hatchery was started by Eden Booth and John Powell. The popularity of hatcheries expanded here, and at one time Windsor was known as the second largest producer of baby chicks in the world.

Today (in 2005), Marti Poultry Farm Inc., remains the sole tribute to this once prominent industry. In 1933, despite the trials of the Great Depression, the International Shoe Factory opened a factory in Windsor. The resulting jobs helped keep our town alive during this difficult time. The factory remained in operation until 1985.

The year 1953 saw the reopening of the Sedalia Air Force Base at nearby Knob Noster, Missouri, which has since been renamed Whiteman Air Force Base. Windsor welcomes many of the base personnel as residents, and we often enjoy the sight of the B-2 Stealth overhead as it either glides or thunders through the sky on practice runs.

Through the 150 years of our town's history, we've seen many changes. Our population now exceeds 3,000 and we continually strive to improve as a hometown community.
