SOUTHERN INDUSTRIAL
Cotton Factories In the South

South Carolina leads all the States
tn the increase Of cotton spindles dur
ing the year ended June 80, 1901. Geor-
gia also made very fine showing, as
did North Carolina and Alabama.
The latter State was slow in taking
advantage of her opportunities for
cotton manufacturing, but she has at
last gone into the business with vim
and during the past two years has
made remarkable strides toward great
ness in textile production. Alabama
now has mills which turn out as high
class cotton goods as any that are
made anywhere in the South, and the
number of her spindles is increasing
very fast. More than 81 per cent. of
all the new spindles in the United
States-that is, spindles which have
been put in since July 1, 1900-are to
be found in the South.
South Carolina has nor only led in
recent cotton mill enlargement, but
in the extent of her cotton manufac-
lures is excelled by only one State
Massachusetts.
In 1900 Rhode Island stood second,
but South Carolina has passed her.
South Cardinals 1,794,657 spindles
in 1900 have increased in one year to
2.185.020, a rate of growth which the
textile industry Of no other State has
ever shoWn.-Atlanta Journal.

Sugar Cane In GeOr2ia.

There has been a marked increase
in the acreage planted in sugar cane
in Georgia within the past few years.
This increase has about doubled with
in the past year, which indicates that
many Georgia farmers have adopted
this as one of their regular crops. That
there is money in raising sugar cane
has been demonstrated beyond doubt
and those farmers who desire to create
another source Of income. do not hest
tate to engage in growing this crop.
A market for Georgia sugar cane has
already been established, and it is no
longer a risk on the part of the farm
er to raise a good crop of cane. The
market for cane is almost as much a
certainty in Georgia as the market for
cotton. The cane always sells at a
good price, which gives the grower a
fair return for his labor. The very
best Of syrup is made from the Geor-
gia sugar cane, ard this syrup sells
readily from % to 35 cents per gal
lon. In this connection it is interest
ing to note that there is a strong prob
ability of sugar refineries being built
in this State, and these would no
doubt yield handsome profits.-Cclum.

North Carolina Melons.

Robson county is to become one
of the greatest melon-raising regions
Of the world. Around the town OF
Maxton 1000 acres are planted in
melons and there are also large farms
near Red Springs and in other parts
of the county. This is not very good
season for melons, but they are being
shipped North from Robson by the
carload. In a few years this new in
dustry ought to make that section Of
the State rich. Nothing has brought
more fame to Georgia than it's peaches

as fine peaches as are seen in GeOr-
gia, and now Robson bids fair to
eclipse that State in melon-raising. If
