throughout me cotton growing states during the past
quarter Of century
recent report on the cotton milling industry in Texas,
prepared by r. r. Miner commissioner Of agriculture
contains the following facts that should interest okla

The text Of Commissioner Miners statement IS that
THE cotton mills VIII finally come to the cotton fields"
The report shows that the growth Of the cotton mill in.
dusty in the south has been marvellous In 1890 the south
manufactured 53ss95 bales Of cotton At that time New
England manufactured l5O2l77 bales In 1906, the south
manufactured 297s6e7 males. while New England that
year manufactured 2O579OO bales, Or 8l8777 bales less
than the south did
Hence The southern mills show an increase in manu-
faeture in sixteen Of s4047 per cent During the
same period the south increased it's number Of spindles
472s2 per cent though the spndIes in New England in
creased only si77 per cent Thus the progress Of this
industry n the south has surpassed the expectations Of
the most hopeful
The report continues showing that North Carolina manu-
facures more cotton than it produces South Carolina
and Georgia manufacture practically as much each al
does North Carolina Alabama Mississippi and Texas are
making prodigous strides along the same lines Texas BE-
ing fifth in the list Of cotton states in the number Of
bales manufactured in 1907
Commissioner Miner enters into a minutely detailed
report Of the cotton mills visited BY him on his recent

Germany seems to be especially

comments on the bridal day, by which
It may be seen that bad luck rather

According 10 the Germans the bride
must be especially careful on her

There is IN New York French
man who can make diamonds. Ills
name Is J. Colin and he has been
here about year not making dia.
monds, but working at his profes-
sion of chemist. The reason he is
not making diamonds Is that il
costs him about 800 times as much
to make them as it does to go into
the market and buy them.
THAT it is possible to produce
artificial diamonds has been posi-
lively proven" says Mr.. Colin. 4
myself have made them by a pro-
cess similar to that used by NJ,
Moissan, the great French chemist.
The process followed was to take
half a pound of carbon obtained
from lump sugar, mix it with 300
ounces OF fine silver in chalk
crucible and heat it in an ordinary
gas furnace to a temperature of
1,2OO degrees centigrade. | introduc-
ed the carbon slowly taking about
half an hour fer the process
"As soon as the mixture was
completed i raised the temperature
to the top notch and kept it there
FOR an hour. AT the end OF the
hour cooled the chalk crucible
in caldron of melted lead and
dissolved the silver with cold nitric
acid. The residue, upon being ex-
ahmed contained one-eighth of a
carat OF diamonds.
II followed out the above process
several times, never falling to pro-
duce very small but imperfect
diamonds. AS commercial asset.
