Household Notes.

Grease spots may be removed from
wallpaper by rubbing carefully with
gasoline.
Small pickles, olives and capers,
minced very fine, are an excellent sea-
soning for salad dressing.
| Put sugar in the water used for bast-
ing meats of all kinds; it gives a good
flavor, to veal more especially.
In cold weather when using frail
china or glass, rinse first with tepid
water before pouring into them any hot
liquid.
The resistance of glass jars that refuse
to open can be overcome by setting
them, top downward, in all inch or
two of hot water.
To color lace cream shade add a
few drops of black coffee to the starch.
To make the lace greenish hue use a
little cold tea.
To make ironing easier, rub the flat
irons first on fine sand and then over q
piece of paper which has been saturated
with kerosene.
To remove sewing-machine oil stains,
rub the stain with sweet oil oa lard and
let it stand for several hours, then wash
it in soap and cold water.
If you are serving sliced bananas for
dessert, try pouring little juice from
oranges or pineapples over them. The
flavor is vastly improved.
you need to use plaster of paris for
stopping cracks, mix it with vinegar.
Vinegar prevents it setting too quickly
and makes it easy of manipulation.
Windows can be cleaned in winter
and the frost entirely removed by using
gill of alcohol to pint of hot water.
Clean quickly and rub dry with al
warm chamois skin.
Carpet beetles can be kept in check
by free use of gasoline. 1t leaves no
stain; do not use it in room with fire,
nor enter for twelve hours with light
ed lamp or strike match.
The really best method of cleaning
mirrors and windows is to rub them
with a paste of whiting and water.
When this dries, polish with dry cha
mois and remove the powder. A little
alchol in cold water also gives a bril-
liant polish. Soap-suds should never
be used.
To serve stewed figs with whipped
cream, put each fig on a small square
of sponge cake neatly cut and pile whip
ped cream on the top.

in some localities. This is due to the
fact that mills have multiplied more
rapidly than labor.
We see no reason why the cotton
milling business in the south should
not increase for many years to come.
The business cannot be overdone un-
til all cotton grown in the south is
manufactured in the south.
The south raises four-ffths of the
cotton crop of the world and has only
100000 spindles. If England finds
it profitable to send subsidized ships
to America and take the raw product
across the Atlantic ocean for the fac
tory, we see no reason why mills in
the cotton belt should fear over-pro-
duction. From the report of an Ar
kansas investigating committee, as
published in The Tradesman.

From a mill president we learned
that he made last year S46, 900 clear on
mill capitalized at S200,000.
Everywhere we saw new mills in
process of erection, and old mills doub-
ling their capacities. Capital would
not 20 into such Investments if the
business had not been found profitable.
South Carolina now stands next to
Massachusetts as cotton Manufactu-
ring state, and if the present rate of
increase continues it will in twenty
wears lead the union.
Last spring a disastrous flood de-
stroyed some large mills on the Pacolet
river. Buildings and machinery were
wrecked and ruined. The day after
the food the mill stock of the de-.
stroyed mills was selling for 125.
We learned of two small mills that
had gone into the hands Of receivers.
We Investigated their cases carefully,
and found that the failures were due
to Encouragement. In both cases
the mills have been reorganized, and
are now operating on paying basis.
Of course the mills from time to
time have their own peculiar troubles.
At present there is shortage of labor

Mill Industry Of South Carolina.

The South Carolina cotton mills
have grown up within the past twenty
years. Twenty years ago the state
had only eighteen cotton mills. A
report issued by the state in July 1901,
showed that she had 136 mills, repre-
senting an investing of S35, 391, 500
AS the mills have been increasing al
the rate of twenty a year, there are
now about $50 mills in South Carolina
The majority of these mills began
with small plants worth $50, 600 OIL
500, 600 each. From the surplus
earnings the mills became dou ubled
trebled, and quadrupled in capacity
At present seven mills have plants
worth considerably more than $1,000
900 each.
Many factories are outside the cor.
porate limits of the town, and some
are in the rural districts. The town
of Pelzer. for instance, has no govern.
ment except that of the mill company
1t has a population of 5000. The
management has built public school
which cost $4,000. Tuition is free,
and the children are given ten cents 8
month for regular attendance. A free
library is maintained.
In all the mill communities the
presidents spend money ]iberally tc
provide comforts and protection fol
the operatives. AS a result of this
broadgauged, beneficient policy, the
most amicable relations exist between
capital and labor. Labor organiza
tions are unknown. AS a class the
operatives are happy and contented
and many of them are laying up
modest bank accounts.
We satisfied ourselves Thoroughly
that the mills of Carolina are prosper
GUS. They are making good cloth and
good dividends. From various stock.
holders we learned that every wei!
