SOUTHERN %DIVERsTTTEs.
)ne Of the best tests Of the SOuth's

One OF the best tests of the South.
superiority in the matter of industrial.
enterprises has been the late financiaI
depression that has spread wei the
entire country. 1t has shown that
while the large factories of the North
and East were, with exceptional cas-.
es, compelled to shut down, because
Of the strain and lack of money to run
them, those of the South have been
but little affected, and all while add
ing to their facilities and enlarginv
their territory. In Georgia, out OF
sixty cotton mills only three have
been idle, and Of the entire number of
plants throughout the South the past
year has see over 10000 new spindles
added, and 10000 are promised for
the coming year.
The industries OF this State, with
but few exceptions, have been running
full time and steadily widening their
fields of business, of course being af.
fccted more or less by the depressed
state Of money matters, yet able to
withstand the hard season, and be IN
good shape for the opening Of the
fall and winter activity. The intlu-
ence of these industries, both large
and small, is felt by every class of bus
mess in their respective communities,
keep fresh an ali Of confidence and
lending material aid to the general
prosperity. The manufacture of lum-
Der, the wood working establishments,
canneries. broom factories, foundries
and machine shops, and the various
cotton and wool mills and kindred
industries with which our State is be-
ing dotted, are doing an untold good
to prosperity and, it might be add
ed, are the salvation Of our common
wealth. They help the farmer as we'll
as the community in which theyxare
directly located. We cannot give too
much encouragement to new indus
tries, nor dwell too ~forceably on the
diversified pursuits of our people. 1t
is because OF this attention to diversi-
fed agriculture that the farmers Of
Mississippi are 80 little affected, COM
parativcly, by "hard tines when it
comes to peace and plenty, OF in the
enjoyment Of every day necessities.
