Every farmer In Mississippi should be
deeply interested in the establishment Of
cotton mills in North Carolina. wher.
number Of cotton mills have been estab.
lishsd and the farmers receive half a
cent pound mole for their cotton than
they do in Mississippi. The Southern
Farm Gazette states that Prof. B. W.
Kilgors. formerly professor Of chsmis-
try at the A. & n. College, but now
state chemist OF North Carolina, visited
the A. &H. College a few days ago and
gave the boys very interesting talk.
Among the interesting things was the
fact that North Csroliua will manufac-
turs all ID. cotton raised in that state
last year, and the cotton mills drove the
buyers for export oct Of the state last
fall by bidding half cent pound more
than the export buyers could pay. So
the farmers Of North Carolina got half
. cent more for cotton than Mississippi
farmers. Prof. Kil8ore says the long.
