TEXTILE INDUSTRIES GROW
Increase in Mills and Spindles Last
Year Very Encouraging.
some Facts Presented in Last Issue
of the Southern Railways
Textile Directory.

The textile directory recently issued by
the land and industrial department OF the
Southern Railway and Mobile and Ohio
Railroad contains a list OF cotton. knit
ting. and wooden mills In the territory OF
these lines on the first OF the year.
Al that time these mills numbered 75I.
Of which So were cotton mills. Iz5 knit
ding mills. and q wooden mills In all.
these plants operated 225.210 looms and
7.S53. .73S spindles. IN the territory ar the
time Of the gathering OF these statistics
nine mills were under construction.
The growth o. the industry has been re-
markabIe. In 1880 al the textile plants
% the South had but $1,000 spindles.
barely per cent Of the total in the Unit
ed States: now they are credited, in round
numbers. with l05000G5 spindles. practi-
cally 80 per cent Of the number IN the en-
tire country. The capital employed has
grown from 81. .0da.010 10 nearly $4,000 co.
and the number OF bales OF cotton annu-
ally used from 210.o10 10 over 2.100Od0. No
other manufacturing section ever in
creased its sp;ndles IN as large percent
ages. South Carolina has $4,000 spin
dies. as against 10000 in 1900. and North
Carolina IN the same period increased its
number from 10000 to 100000. Notable
increases have also been made in Georgia
and Alabama. During the last half OF 1913
North Carolina constructed thirty mills. a
greater number than any other State.
OF the cotton manufacturing States,
South Carolina Is second. North Carolina
third. and Georgia fifth, according 10 the
latest available statistics The Piedmont
region is one OF the great cotton manu-
featuring districts OF the world. and has
such prominence in this industry that the
territory OF the Southern Railway be-
tween Danville. Va. and Atlanta. Ca. a
distance OF 20 miles, has been referred 70
as one long cotton mill village
OF an intermediate section Of this ter
ritory the American Textile Manufac-
turer. denominatng the Southern Rail
way as the Cotton MIL Line" recently
said:
The distance between Charlotte. y.
c.. and Greenville, 5. c.. by the Southern
Railway is 107 miles. There are bunches
OF cotton mills at almost every station
between the two places. II al the cotton
mills between and including Greenville
and Charlotte were strung out in a line
there would be one mill 70 every mile
This would mean that. including the mill
villages which have 20 go with the mills,

solid, compact line OF cotton mills from

OUR MONEY GOES TO CANADA
Capital Invested Over the Border
Shown in Tariff Speeches.
The Factories Going North Are
Needed Down south. and Ought
TO BE Kept There.

Not without reason has the charge
been made in both Houses OF Congress
that the Canadian tariI acts as a means
Of Turing American capital across the
bor0er when IL would otherwise remain
in this country. II appears that several
large American factories have been es-
tablished In the Dominion within the past
few years. and that many branch CON
Germs have also gone there. with a view
70 making goods and selling them in Can
ada so as TO avoid paying the tariff on
the products carried across the border.
L IS not contended for one moment
that these concerns would not prefer 20
remain IN the United States, but mas
much as the best markets are IN Canada,
It becomes necessary TO make and as
semble the product there 10 enable the
manufacturer 10 compete with English
and other manufacturer.
That some arrangement ought 20 be
effected between the two countries 10
remove these conditions has been freely
said IN Congress. n these factories are
10 move from the Northern and Western
States, they are needed IN the South. and
the influx Of American capital into Can
ada in the last dozen years IS a distinct
loss 20 this country and the New South.
Consul A. G. Seyfert. reporting from
Owen Sound, on American capital IN
Canada, estimates that about $500 6d0. COO
OF such capital is IN Industrial plants
He says the present Canadian tariff
has apparently been the cause OF many
American manufacturing establishments
having established branch industrial
concerns throughout the Dominion In
order 20 hold their business they have
established annexes where they manu-
faCture the articles they sell TO Cana
dians IN Canada
From the best information obtain
able, says Mr.. Seyfert. there are az
least 80 such American firms IN Can
ada, with a capital investment OF Sl75.-
100000. Probably the largest plant is
that Of the International Harvester
Company. at Hamilton. which employs
1900 10 1900 men The purpose IN estab-
fishing this immense plant was not only
10 supply the Canadian farmer with
agricultural implements. but also 70
manufacture farm machinery for export.
as Canadian goods have a customs re-
bate in South Africa and on some lines
in Australia. while Canadian farm ma
chinery enters France at a lower tariff
rate than similar goods from the United
States"
Mr.. Seyfert says most OF these Amer
lean annexes are located in Ontario.
among them being three large shoe fac
tories financed entirely by American
capital which went 70 Canada IN the
last few years. HIgh-grade American
shoes are imported into Canada. but
the lower grades are made by American
factories IN Canada
In the numbering business. says STr
Seyfert. there are enormous American
investments When a tax was put on

OF These Hats This Year.

tonic is the distributing center Of the
United States for the Mexican straw SOM
breros a hat which is being widely used
throughout the Southern and Middle
States.
In one consignment lately 10000 OF
these sombrerOs were imported by one
dealer.
These hats bid fair in time to replace
the fve-cent jimmy" They have very
high crowns, keeping a column Of air
above the head. their brims are unusually
wide. some OF them being young umbrel-
las. Plenty Of these hats retail as low as
8 and 10 cents apiece, others sell as high
as IS cents and Sl-5O a piece.
When the maker has been especially
lavish with his decorations OF cut gilt
and passementrie braid. the cost is from
$3.50 10 $3.50 a piece, some Of them running
as high as S12 and So. II is character
istic Of the Mexican TO wear a $40 hat and
a S3 suit OF clothes. and ride a $50 saddle
on a SIS pony
A few years ago these Mexican hats
were rarely seen in the United States,
far North as Missouri and Kentucky. and
many Of them are shipped TO New York
City.
The wives and daughters Of the tourists
have found that the finer grade Of these
Mexican hats can be decorated with red
ribbons around the crown and brim,
knotting them in big bows under their
chins. thus making a most picturesque
headgear for lawn parties and picnics.
The wide soft brims keep the sun of
better than the sun bonnets and art cool
er. and besides that the effect Of a pretty
face in a setting Of vari-colored straw and
red ribbons IS unquestionably fetching
To meet this high-class demand some Of
the Mexican sombreros this year are
close to the genuine Panama in looks.
The duty on these hats runs from . to
so per cent and freight charges are added.
1t is estimated that between 10000 and
]. 100000 are bought every year in the
United States.
