THE STATES INDUSTRIES.
A Wonderful Growth Along Man!
Lines In Twenty Years.

The manufacturing industries OF
North Carolina until 1880 were limited,
but since that time the spindles and
looms for the manufacture OF cotton
and wOOlen fabrics have been largely
increased. tobacco factories have been
established and enlarged and the cul-
ture of silliwormS has occasioned the
establishment of silllmaking in
dustry.
In 1896 the number Of cotton mills
in the state was 1G1, looms $4,000 and
spindl"S Approximately l.OOO,0G0. Over
1900 persons were employed in these
mills. and the capital invested was
over $l5.O"G.CGA. There was a note
worthy advance during 1899 in cot
ton manufacturing. New plants put
into operation numbered IS and new
spindlcS -, l';S. with an estimated
capitalization CT $S0OO,OO0
The tobacco industry has greatly
pro>urred in recent years. During the

The fisheries of North Carolila are
an Important industry. In 1870 the
number Of men regularly employed in
tbs industry appropriated GoJ0 and
til" boats ana vessels about 300 The
v:;,Ue of the products is nearly equally
divided between sea and river prod
ucts. The s.ad and herring fisheries
are the most important Of any state
and the greater portion Of the catch is
made i'll and about the Albpmarle
sound. Oysters are abundant, the area
of the public grounds exceeding 10000
acres and the natural beds nearly
5000 acres. Legislative protection has
been thrown around the oyster and
fishery interests. and the laws are rig
idly enforced.
The American Exposition at
Buffalo next year will offer to the peo-
pie OF this state an opportunity for
showing their resources that will prove
of greater value than any exposition
has ever before presented. The state
is now better than ever prepared to
make Il great showing. and the Won
dcrful resources of the state can be
presented to millions of people who
are near to us and more likely to be
come one of us if properly impressed
with the advantages we offer, who
could not have been reached through
any other exposition.

THE POTATO CROP.
Labor Saving Methods and Helps Il
