OF GREAT SOUTH
Time When Cotton Will Indeed
Be King, Enthroned, in
Land of Dixie.

Potentialtes Of the South in cotton
manufacturing" says the Manufac-
turers' Record, are emphasized by
facts suggested in the figures Of the
season OF 19l2-l2 dealing with cotton
growing and cotton manufacturing.
In the light Of progress In textiles
made in tho past twenty five or thirty
years IL might seem supcrnuous TO
think OF the Souths potentialities in
that domain. Thirteen OF the four
teen Southern States in which cotton
IS grown spin cotton. In 1850 in these
spinning States only $4,000 bales OF
cotton We're taken by the mills, and
nose takings amounted 10 but 81 per
cent OF the crop OF cotton raised in
shat year and only 10 per cent of the
takings by MI the mills Of the country.
In the year ended August 81. 1918.
Southern mills took o,eGa.55s bales. or
go per cent OF the taliings by mills
Of the whole country and oo.9 per cent
OF the crop raised. The 1913 takings
by the Southern mills We're nearly
twice rs great a. the takings by nil
the mills in the country in 1880 But.
in spite o.! tho progress thus indi-
Gated The South has by no means
realized upon its opportunities in the

PITY THE POOR AUTO.

A poor Ford auto loaded to its ca

near turning turtle just east of town
at 1:25 p. m. Sunday night. The oc-
cupants of the car claimed Tampico
as their residence. The cries of the
women and children in the car awak
ened the residents who went to their
assistance and helped them get their
car out of the ditch The women and
children were fortunate enough to
escape serious injury, but positively
refused to continue on their journey
with the driver that ditched them at
the wheel. They telephoned Tampico
Garage for an auto to come after them
and they no doubt arrived to their
homes in time for breakfast. One of
the occupants of the car claimed to
have lost his bank book, but after
a diligent search by all nothing could
be found except a beer bottle.
