THE PRESS NOT FORGOTTEN.

Fl. M. Sullivan, Esq, secretary board
trustees of the university, offered a resolu-
tion, which was unanimously passed at a
late meeting of the board, APP propriating
$500 to be used for advertising the uni
yersity in the State papers Tor the coming
year.-Orford Falcon.
Mr.. Sullivan is a sensible gentle
man, and a manof business capaci-
ties. We remember last year in
advertising the university he sent
the advertisements directly to the
different papers in the State, in
stead of doing the business through
advertising agents as some people
very unwisely do. No paper that
has a circulation and expects to
make a support can afford to take
advertisements at the rates offered
by agents, and the result is when a
man or firm advertises through
these agencies his business is put
into patent-side papers and other
sheets that have "A limited circula-
ton, and his business does not
reach half the eyes of the reading
public.
Last year through the foresight
of Mr.. Sullivan Mississippi univer-
sity was the most thoroughly adj
vertised institution of learning in
the State, and the consequence
the university was more large
ly patronized than any year of its
existence, and we believe at one
time students could not be received
for want of accommodations. With
such gentlemen as Mr.. Sullivan on ,
the board of trustees the universe

A VERY good suggestion is made
by the Atlanta Constitution that
small cotton mills costing from
$1,000 to $4,000 be built on planta.
lions and in neighborhoods where
Gluch cotton is raised. These mills
do not contain looms, but simply
spin the cotton. By growing the
cotton and then manufacturing it
into yarn-which can be done at
small cost--planters will greatly in
crease their yearly earnings. There
are a number of mills OF this kind
situated in several portions Of the
particularly in Florida.

"The resolutions adopted by the

not pledge himself to the building,
