Bear in mind the reason assigned by
Bill Nye for the growth of American
cities at the expense of the country. He
says people crowd into cities so that
they can go from one store to another
without getting mired. This is Will

Cotton Manufacturing.
Alfred B. Sheppcrson. of {

Alfred B. Sheppcrson, of the New
-. Cotton Excaange. has published
statement of the American cotton
crop of '91-'92," os compiled by him.
Ir. Shepperson argues that while the
crop for the past year was the largest
commercial crop on record, the actual
cotton yield was probably 100000 less
than the year previous. He bases this
upon the fact that very large quantity
of old cotton, held over from 1890 81,
was marketed during the year just closed.
This view of the matter is valuable in
making estimates on the present crop,
based upon comparison with the con
dition of that nf '01 no o--.--.-S-r "v"-
ever, which is of grCa' eli tercst to US, IS
that giving the consumption of cotton
10y the mills in the Southern S atcs.
Four years ago, in 1888. 80. the South
crn cotton mills consumed 479. 7S1 bales,
in 1890 81. 612. .S92 and for the year just
clos d, GS4, 1867 In the first year named
sou h Carolina's consumption was 132,-
319 bales and last year it was 1S5, ,367,
IN increase of $4,000 bales over the
consumption Of the previous year.
Georgia comes second on the list with
1918 bales utilized bv her mills last
year, an Increase $4,000 for the year.
North Carolina is third, her mills having
used 157, ,60) bales If cotton, gain of
10000 bales over 1890 81. These three
States show an increase of $4,000 bales
consumed, as compared with the year
before.
The report of Henry G. Hester, OF the
Ncw Orleans Cotton Exchange, upon
the same subject has also been re
ccived. The two great authorities are
wondtrfully close together in their fig
ures, and for the first time they agree in
naming South Carolina rs the greatest
cotton manufacturing State of the South
Mr.. Hester's figures indicate an in
crease in the consumption of the tw"
Carolinas and Georgia of 6l,G0) bales
over that OF 1890 81, which is more fa.

the cotton spinning business in the
outh, and that we are making wonder

Last year the mills Of the remainder OF
