TO DOUBLE ITS $4,000 PLANT.
This Factory Is Making a Success of
Business.

Americas, which has long had in
contemplation the building of a fac
tory, has an object lesson in the sue
cess attained by the little town of
Uniontowp, Ala. The mill there has
proven so successful that the stock
holders have decided to double the
plant. This action neoessitates the
increase of capital stock from SO, 900
to $150,000 and the installation of 3, 800
spindles, which is the number now in
operation. About fifty people are en-
ployed at present, and this number
will be doubled, all the operatives be-
ing housed IN cottages owned by the
mill company. Steam-power is used,
and yarns is the product, four bales of
cotton being now worked up daily.
The staple used comes from the imme-
date vicinity of Uniontown.

BRINGS EIGHT AND A QUARTER.
Americas Is the Highest Market For
Cotton,

Eight and quarter cents was paid
fer good cotton in Americas yesterday,
and much of that offered by the local
trade went at this fancy figure. There
was no New York market to guide the
buyers, it being holiday on the ex-
change, but the demand for cotton was
strong and many sales were effected.
It has ben long while since cotton
brought 81 cents here, and few Georgia
market are paying the price. But then
Americas has always been the recog-
nized leader of the cotton markets in
the state, south of Macon.
