Some interesting facts about the increase

In the Geoter State:
40 the Editor OF The Post.
Wolfe City. Texas, February l7.--In
talking with citizen of this city who has
spent several weeks this winter in and
around Dalton Ga. your correspondent
learned that the Grown cotton mile Of
Dalton had cleared 90 per cent last year
on the capital invested and the company
was so well pleased # had decided TO
enlarge the old mill TO double its former
capacity and to build a new mill to cost
100000. The company has bought and
stored in the town OF Dalton several thou
sand bales OF this years cotton 10 be
worked up by these mills as soon as com
pleted.
In connection with these cotton mills
there is In process of construction knit
ting factory and also a pants factory. All
this is being done in little town OF
1870 inhabitants.
Of course wher all these new enterprises
are completed the population will increase
almost or quite double the present popu-
laiiou and to meet this increased demand
new buildings are spriuging up all over
the city, Everything that the farmers
raise lind ready market, in fact. he says
the supply IL not equal to the demand
Men who were poor men when these
mills were built and had the courage to
invest their little savings in these mills
are independent and some have grown rich
rom the profits of these mills,
This shows what can be done by build
ing cotton factories where the raw mate
rial is raised and save the expense of
shipping both ways and the import duties.
