The Farmers Union and citizens of
Monroe are moving Toward the cree
tion of a cotton yarn and bagglng
factory. The idea is to buy direct
from the farmers and sell the manu-
featured goods direct, as for as the de-
mand goes. This IL a good move on
the part of the Union farmers and a
better one for Monroe. That enter
prising town IS forging ahead. A
bank secured, and compress, and now
cotton factory and a magnificent
United States court honse erected.
Each new enterprise makes the pre-
ceeding more prosperous and enconr-
ages the enterprising to further i'm
proVements.
Inland towns, controlling only Ger
tain limited areas of trade, can never
hope to reach beyond village life with
out manufacturing enterprises. Lou
isiana can never expect to rank high
10 the list of States or obtain a very
large population while depending al
most entirely upon her agricultural
products, rich though they be. Only
manufactures can cause her cities TO
grow, her garden products and agri-
cultural conveniences greater, her pop
ulation more dense, her schools more
numerous, superior and better attend,
ed, her roads more perfect, her peo-
pie more enlightened, the predomi-
assured, and the old leaven of the war
completely destroyed.
