Of cotton oil mills, together with
the short cotton crop, farmers
throughout the state are receiving
high prices for their cotton seed.
While large crops mayreduce these

an oil mill there is greater demand
for all kinds of farm products. The
carpenter and day laborer are like
wise more in demand and business
in every line is improved by the
money drawn TO that community

of oil mills is true OF every other
manufacturing industry. Oil
mills are mentioned because they
happen, at this time, TO present the
most striking example. We doubt
not that still greater results would
be realized from the building Of
cotton factories. And, in these

distributing of refined sugar-that is, on terms
dictated by the sugar trusts in jeopardy and
may be dissolved at any time. meeting OF
wholesale grocers and jobbers interested in
the furthering of the plans of the American
Sugar Refining company was held and the
trade situation as affecting sugar was dis
cussed.

scented at the meeting were: Reid, Murdoch
& Co. Chicago; Franklin McVeagh Co.
Chicago; Sprague, Warner & Co.. Chicago,
Ira Smith, Milwaukee; James Ii. Edgar. De-
troit; +. c. Jones' Peoria.
The thing sought to be accomplished was
either ways and means of putting stop to
the present decentralization in the trade, or
the abandonment of the factor and the substi-
tuition OF what is known as the equality plan,
under the operations of which jobber regu-
lates his own prices. The present trouble be
