The progress since the census was
taken in the amount invested in the
number of mills, spindles, etc., and
given in the following table:

1t is not at all necessary to discuss
the advantages the South offers for
the manufacture of cotton goods.
They have already been given, and
the numerous new mills built ia the
South and the removal of mary New
England establishments are more en-
couraging than arguments. On one
point, however, some Information is
desired-the profit of the Industry in
the South. The New England mills
all publi,h full accounts of
their operations, the dividends
paid, etc., so that one can see at
a glance whether they are thriving or
not, but while we have full statistics
concerning the Southern mills on all
other points we have but few on this
question of profit. Taking SO of the
southern mills which publish their
dividends and have about one.twelfth
of the capital stock engaged in this
industry in the South, we find that
the dividends run from 4 to 20 per
cent for the past Year and averaging
SO per cent. When we consider what
a bad year 1893 was and that SO many
mills in other portions of the country
were unable to declare any dividends
at all, it will be recognized that the
returns are very satisfactory and that
the cotton industry in the South is in
a very prosperous condition when it
has so few suspensions and handsome
dividend of nearly per cent on tue
capital invested.
