RosEDALE is GROWING.
The GiIi-Edge Cooperage Company Will
Add Much TO the Business and POpu-
Iation Of Our Little City.

Work on the site of the Gilt
Edge Cooperage Company is pro.
crossing nicely and early the conf
ing spring the plant will be in full
operation.
The building of this factory ii
Rosedale means much to our city
The managers of this company did
not just happen to locate here
They are men of splendid business
Judgment, and before they decided
to come here they not only thor.
oughly investigated the advantages
we had to offer, but they visited 6
number of other cities and figured
OIL what they had to offer. The
fact that they have located here is,
therefore, quite compliment te
our city, and at the same time goes
to prove what I've have always con.
tended-that Rosedale is the bes1
place in the Delta for any manu-
featuring concern using wood as its
raw material. This company now
has in sight between forty and fifty
million feet of timber.
The coming of this factory means
that the population of our town
will be increased several hundred
and that the patronage of our mer-
chants will be largely increased
We need a few more factories; we
have the best location in the State
for them, and it is only a matter Of
a short time until they will come.
Rosedale is bound to grow!

SUBSCRIPTION ST. PER YEAR.
A GOOD START.

The sale of the timber OH section
10, township %, range 6, which
was handled by County Surveyor
!. M. McBroom and ratified by the
board at the last meeting for
100000, is matter of good judg-
ment and wise fnanciering that
should be applied to every school
section III the county, where pos
sible. To the people of this part
of the county the sale means the
provision of a good school house,
and a good school house mes MS the
rapid and substantial opening and
settlement of the territory. Moth
ing in the province of the board,
in dealing with 10th sections, could
be done that would have more
beneficial or lasting influence.
In this connection the board has
taken another splendid step and
that is to forestall the clearing up
and cultivation of all school sectloti
not heretofore disposed of. The
board proposes that all merchant
able timber shall first be disposed
of and after that these lands shall
be offered for cultivation under a
seven year lease without rent, the
renter to make such improy elnents
to the land as the board may sug--
gest, and to turn them back at the
end of the lease period in perfect
state of cultivation.
A moments reflection will enable
one to see just what may be ac4
complished by this method III
providing schools. If at the end
of seven years school section IS
in good cultivation it would have an
annual rental value of more than
IS, 900, fund sufficient to provide
the best of school buildings and a
nine months term. Think what
an impetus this would be, not only
to the educational intrests of the
county. but how far it would go
towards removing the very serious
objection of poor school advantages
that is so constantly and seriously
urged. Give the 10th sections of
Bolivar county good school houses
and good nine months school every
year, and you have provided an
educational condition exceeded by
no section. The work contem-
plated by the board is 10th broad
and wise, and every interest de-
mands that they prosecute it with
all possible vigor.
The importance of shaping the
affairs Of all school funds in the
county, for years neglected and
confused, should also engage the
early attention of the board. No
matter where the investment of
the status of these funds shall lead,
the investigation should be made.
If they have been squandered,
wasted or stolen, the people of the
county should know it, and a new
starting point for their accounting
made. We urge the Importance
of this step i'll the name of the
people of the entire county and
shall insist upon it until some ac-
ton is taken.-Cleveland Enter
prise.

COTTON MILLS ARE BUSY.
Consul at Manchester, England, Re-
ports Great Activity.

Washington, April 1.-Consul Cen
cIdl Bradley, at Manchester. England.
in z report to the Department of Com
mcrCc ana Labor states that there is n
great renewal Of activity ana increase
in the consumption of cotton in that
manufacturing center.
In 1904 the conSumption Of cotton
IL Manchester amounted to $4,000 tons.
as against $4,000 in 1905. The mills
ran 30 hours a week in the former
year. and in the latter full time.
The demand for raw material has
greatly increased. An exhibition by
the British Cotton Growers Associa-
ton of varieties raised in the British
possessions has been installed II is
claimed that all varieties can he rails
ed in the United Kingdom. and that
the crop for the current year will be
materially increased.
VICE Consul Schlemmer. of Mann
heim, expresses the opinion that a
crop Of cotton in the United STATES
falling under the 10000. .O0O-bale mark
IS regarded as a calamity in England
and Germany. and that the effect would
be much more disastrous i'm those com-
munities than in the cotton producing
Southern States. In speaking Of the
prospect of the attempts of Germany
and England to enter the market as
producers, Consul Schlemmer states
that there is little likelihood of those
ventures affecting the market rs the
production in Germany last wear
amounted to but 5000 bales and that
III Great Britain to $4,000 bales while
.iie increase in consumption amounted
to 100000 bales.
