past season cleared dividend Of 33333
Der cent. which ia rather REMARKABLE
showing for hard year" Aud yet
there are many men in Sumter who will
not hesitate to declare that oil mills
don't pay. We have not seen the
report Of the earnings Of the Green
wood Mill for tue past season. bus if We
are not mistaken a dividend Of some
ching like SO per cent. was paid to
stockholders yesr before last. after a
substantial reserve fuud had been set
aside.
