INCREASE OF COTTON MILLS IN THE
SoUTH.-The number of spindles in the
South in 1880 was 667, S54, and in 1891 o.
1SO,e23. AS the Lynchburg Neaos says,
these figures show that in the last eleven
years the increase of cotton spindles in the
Southern mills has been simply wonderful,
amounting to as much as 264 per cent. The
border States have not gained great deal,
though their showing is good one, but
Georgia, North and South Carolina have
outstripped the others ont of sight. These
facts make it certain that the South is not
only the greatest cotton-growing section in
the world, bat at similar rate of increase
she will soon outstrip the world in its cot
ton manufactures. At no distant day by
the close of the present Century, the South
will be the center of all the leading pro.
ducing and manufacturing Industries of the
globe, and don't you forget it,
