Van Buren, Steam Cotton Mil.

In answer to the queries of the Little
Rock True Democrat, with the assistance of
Mr. MoP BIS, we can give the desired inior-
nation. The Van Buren, Mill is now in
fall operation. and is composed as follows ::
Two sets of Wool Cards-which can card 800
lbs Of wool per day.
1903 Spindlcs-which enables them to turn cut
500 lbs. Of Cotton Yarn, per day.
The have no looms, except for making seamless
sacks.
They are also grinding Wheat and Corn-grind-
ing from 100 to $50 bushels per day.
They run an engine Of $50 horse power From
which power Saw Mill is run, when they have
nothing else to do.
This Factory is, We believe, the only one
in the State that is making Cotton Yarn
the factory at Cane Hill is not running.
The Van Buren Mill. is working full time,
and will be able to the supply the demand,
at least for this State, with Cotton Yarn.
Planters having cotton to spin and wool
to card. will find this MIL just the place to
have it worked up in the best manner.
Let us encourage home manufacture. AMI
demonstrate to a certainty, that we can live
and prosper without the aid of nor,h ,hern
fanatics.
P. S.-Friend johnson, will please leave
alone our quotations., and thank Us for in
formation given.
