A TRIP TO KANSAS CITY.

Mr.. D. M. Prince returned few
days ago from trip to Kansas City
where be went to purchase stock. He
made some interesting observations on
his trip.
Mr.. Prince says he had not passed
through the western part OF North Car
DINA and South Carolina in about ten
years, and he was greatly surprised at
the wonderful development, especially
in the cotton milling interest. He
says that in part of North Carolina he
saw towns which have simply been
made over. Ten years ago they were
sleepy and dead but now are hustling,
humming centres of business. He
mentioned several million dollar cotton
mill plants, and near the line between
North Carolina and South Carolina
he did not remember in which State
three million dollar cotton mill
plant was pointed out to him.
Mr.. Prince says that somehow North
Carolina seemed greater to him than
ever before. North Carolina, he says,
outstrips Georgia.
He spent some time in Atlanta and
the dash and hustle there reminded
him of western city. MIR. Prince
spent day also in Nashville, Tenn,
and visited the great stock yards in
both Atlanta and Nashville. He said
The farms in Tennessee present some
beautiful scenes. The farmers have
fine stone fences around their farms
and largely raise stock and grain.
The two days spent in st. Louis were
full of interest. Union depot In St
Louis cost seven million dollars, and
one million dollar baggage room is be-
ing added now to accommodate visitors
to the Worlds Fair. Great prepare
tons are being made for the Fair and
St. Louis is in culver of exciting en-
ergy and work.
The great corn lands of Southern
Indiana were objects of interest. Mr..
Prince says that one can see corn as
far as the vision can stretch. 1t Is
packed in great bins, or rail pens, in
the fields for shipment, and railroad
spurs are built to them in order to load
conveniently. Engines are at work
shelhng tho corn and loading it by ele-
yators, while quantities are shipped in
the ear. mostly to st. Louis.
Mr. Prince spent two days in Kansas
City, headquarters of stock for the
world. He passed over elevated walks
miles long from which he could look
down upon cattle, mules and hogs. He
saw ten acres of land covered with
mule barns built of brick. and the
barns have each capacity of holding
from $50 to 1900 mules.
The lands are so rich in that country
that the farmers do not wish to be
bothered with fertilizers of any kind,
and object to the manure from the
great mule barns being put upon their
lands. One mule dealer told Mr..
Prince that it cost him last year $3.50
20 get the manure from his mule barns
hauled and dumped into the river. In
Halifax county it would have been
sorth IS. COO. Mr.. Prince says Kansas
City was the most hustling place he
found.
