Diversifcations of Employment.

Notwithstanding the encouragement of
the government manufacturing is develop
ing very slowly in India 1t is the policy to
introduce diversified employments. Nearly
two-thirds of the entire population of $780,
coo GOO souls are dependent upon the rain
fall for their prosperity, and one might say
their lives. If there is a drought there is
famine, simply because the agricultural
laborers cannot earn enough at the present
rate of wages to buy food to keep them
selves and their families from starving.
There have been several terrible famnes
in India but in nearly all of them there has
been sufficient food somewhere in the coun-
try to supply the wants of the entire popu-
Ia ton If it had been equally distributed.
As rule, when one part of India Is suf-
fering lack of water another part will
have an abundance and sometimes too
much. The distances are SO enormous, the
country is so vast, the railway lines and
other transportation facilities are so
meager that it is not only difficult but very
EXPENSIVE to send wheat, rice, millet and
other food from one dstan tprovince where
it is abundant to another where the crops
have failed; and the cost places 1t beyond
the purchasing power of the labering
classes. who. as 1 have shown you. seldom
get more than or 10 cents a day, even
when labor is in demand.
During drought there is no employment
for them. The farmer for whom they are
accustomed to work has nothing for them
they could not buy food even if it were
within their reach, and can only appeal to
the government for relief. 1t is estimated
that at least 25, and some say 80. per cent
Of the 200. 00W000 people now dependent
upon agriculture for support could easily
be spared from that branch of industry and
their labor might be proftably employed in
manufacturing industries. This would
eqralize things somewhat and make the
average income of the working population
larger than 1t is.
This is one of the methods the govern
ment has adopted to prevent or allay future
fe Mines and it's policy is gradually becom-
ing felt by the increase of mechanical in
dustries and the employment of the coolie
class in other lines than agriculture. At
the same time the problem is complicated
by the fact that the greater part of the
mechanical products of India have always
been produced in the households. Each viii
lage has its own weavers carpenters, brass
workers. blacksmiths and potters, who are
not able to compete with machine-made
goods. Many of these local craftsmen have
attained a high standard of artistic skill in
ma king up silk, wool. linen, cotton car
pets, brass, iron. wood, ivory and other
materials. But their arts must necessarily
decay or depreciate If the local markets are
flooded with cheap products from factories,
and there question of serious consequence
has arisen.

They do not handle cotton here as we

call them. receive a maximum of only r. Al

mechanics-masons, carrenters and black

The failure of the crop in 1S99-19OO was
due to the drought which caused the great
famine.
The exports last year were larger than
any previous year, and 1t is expected that
the shipments this winter will break the
record, because everything has been favor
able. About one-half of the crop is used in
the local mills. The greater part of the bal
ance is shipped to Japan, which is the best
customer. Germany comes next, and, Gu
riously enough Great Britain is one of the
smallest purchasers. Indian cotton is ex-
clusively of the snort staple variety and
not nearly as good as that produced in
to Introduce Egyptian cotton, but, while
some of the experiments have been tempo
rarily successful it deteriorates the second
year.

Cost of Raising Cotton.


The cost of producing cotton is very
much less than in the United States, be-
cause the land always yields "a crop of
something else, which, under ordinary
circumstances. ought to pay taxes and
often fixed charges, well as the wages
of laborers, which are amazingly low,
leaving the entire proceeds of the cotton
crop to be counted as clear gain. The
men and women who work in the cotton
fields of India are not paid more than So
month. That is considered very good
wages.
All the shipping is done in the winter
season; the cotton is brought in by rail-
road and lies in bags on the docks until
it is transferred to the holds of ships
During the winter season the cotton
docks are the busiest places around Bonn
bay.
The manufacture of cotton is increas-
ing rapidly. There are now eighty-four
mills in Bombay alone with a capital of
more than $25,0o0,0Oo, and all of them
have been established since 1870 includ-
ing some of the most modern, up-to-d date
plants in existence. The people of Bonn
bay have about $50, 100000 invested in
mills here and in this neighborhood,
most OF 1T being owned by Parsees, the
largest mill owners being ]. N. Tata &
Sons. the Sassoon, Maneckji Petit and
Pierrebhoy families The latter manufac-
ture enormous quantities of canvas,
duck, khaki and other fabrics for the
British army.
But there are mills scattered all over
the country. The industry dates from
1851 and during the last twenty years
the number of looms has increased 100
per cent and spindles liz per cent: On
the 31st of last March. according to the
official records, there were POI cotton
mills in India, containing 43676,OOO looms
and 5,164.360 spindles, with combined
capital of $5S,175.0O0. This return, how
ever. does not include thirteen mills
which were not heard from, and they
will probably increase the number of
looms and spindles considerably and the
total capital to more than SEQ, OOO, OOO
Cotton Manufacturing.
The following table will show the
growth of the industry, the capital in
vested and the number of hands en-.
ployed during the last twelve years:

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star and
Chicago hecord-Herald
BOMBAY, February 2. 1904
The docks of Bombay are the finest in
Asia, and when the extensions now In prog
ress are carried out few cities in Europe
can surpass them. They are planned for
century in advance. The people of Bombay
are not boastful, but they are confident
of the growth of their city and it's COM
merce.
Attached to the docks Is a story of IN
tegrity and fidelity worth telling. In 1875
the municipal authorities of the young city,
anticipating commercial prosperity, decided
to improve their harbor and build piers for
the accommodation of vessels. but nobody
around the place had experience in such
matters and a commission was sent off to
other cities of India to find man to take
charge. The commission was very much
pleased with the appearance and ability of
Lowji Naushirwanji, the Parsee foreman
of the harbor at the neighboring town of
Surat, and tried to coax him away by
making a very lucrative offer, much in adj
vance Of the pay he was then receiving. He
was too loyal and honest to accept it, and
read the members of the commission a lee
ture on business integrity which greatly
impressed them. When they returned to
Bombay and related their experience the
municipal authorities communicated with
those of Surat and inclosed an invitation to
Naushirwanji to come down and build a
dock for Bombay. The offer was so adj
vantageous that his employers advised him
to accept it. He did SO, and from that day
to this of his name, and one of his
descendants, has been superintendent of
the docks of this city. The flee has prac-
ticaly become hereditary in the family.
Cotton Largest Export From Bombay.
The largest export from Bombay is cot
ton. Next to the United States India is
the largest cotton producing country in the
world, and, with the exception of Calves
ton and New Orleans, the Bombayers claim
to have the largest cotton market in the
world. The shipments have never reached
$5O.0OO,000 a year, but have got very near
that point.
Every large state in southern India pro-
duces cotton, but Bombay and Berar are
the principal producers. The area for the
whole of India in 1923 was IA ,232, 900 acres,
but this has been often exceeded. In
1884 the area planted was nearly 15,5OO,-
coo acres. The average is about 1900, 600
acres. Cotton is usually grown in conjunc-
ton with some other crops. and in certain
portions of India two crops year are pro-
duced on thesame SOIL The following table
will show the number of bales produced
during the years named
