Cotton Looms.
Memphis Commercial Appeal

Memphis Commercial Appeal
Oklahoma does not raise great deal of
cotton, but she has set to work very ener-
getically to solve the problem of that which
has been harvested. She saw the sensible
side of the Gloom near-the-field sug-
gestion, and she has started out to prove if
it is practical.
Because New England could not be
agricultural it was necessary for her to 90
in for manufactures, and to do this it was
quite as necessary for her to impress upon
the Southern States that they could not be
both producers and manufacturers. She
has always known that as soon as these
States began to spin and weave the cotton
they raised she would be as a modern
Othello, with her occupation gone. 1t be-
hooves her to foster the idea that the scot
ton States did their part when they pro-
duced and baled it.
But down in his heart every Southern
farmer and cotton factor knows quite we'll
that there is no reason why the cotton fac
tory should not go side by side with the
field where the staple grows. A factory
does not depend on climate, and certainly
there is room for it down here in Dixie.
Oklahoma is taking this view of it, for
she has purchased loom in Massachu-
sets and has set it up in Muskogee, where
it is already turning the fleecy staple into
thread and cloth. The cloth may not be a
very finished product, for it takes practice
and good machinery to turn out fine goods.
But it is the spirit of determination and
enterprise that we are counting; these
must come first; the grade of goods will
improve with time.
In taking the initiative in this matter
Muskogee has set every city in the South
good example. The stress of war has
thrown hundreds of people out of employ
ment; the establishment of factories such
as Muskogee has started would serve the
double purpose of using part of the held
up crop and of giving remunerative occu-
patton to needy workers. There is space
and opportunity for such factory right
here in Memphis. Why not let the buy "a
bale movement develop into start loom
movement?

Louisiana Planter, It'll: Ideal weather
for the grinding season has prevailed DUR
ing the past week. 1t has been clear and
cool, and it has been possible under these
circumstances to make rapid progress at
all places where the campaign has begun.
There are some factories where operations
have not yet commenced, but the coming
week will will witness the Inauguration of
the grinding at these. The cane is gen.
orally reported to be very sweet and the
juice working well, but tonnage per acre
is light. In general the conditions so far
in this campaign have been predominantly
good and the weather which is such an
factor has been almost ideal
since the first factory began to grind.

Books as Friends.

l have friends whose society is extremely
agreeable to me; they are of all ages and
of every country. They have distinguish
ed themselves both in the cabinet and in
the field, and obtained high honors for
their knowledge of the sciences. It is easy
to gain access to them, for they are always
at my service, and | admit them to nv
company and dismiss them from it, when
ever please. They are DeSer troublesome,
but Immediately answer every question
ask them. Some relate to me the events
of past ages, while others reveal to me the
secrets OF nature. Some teach me how to
live. Some, by their vivacity, drive
away my cares and exhilerate my spirits;
while others give fortitude to my mind,
and teach me the important lesson how to
restrain my desires. They open to me.
in short, the various avenues of all the arts
and sciences, and upon their information l
may safely rely in all emergencies. In re-
turn for all their services they only ask me
to accommodate them with convenient
chamber in some corner of my humble
habitation, where they may repose in
peace; for these friends are more delight
ed by the tranquility Of retirement than
with the tumults Of society.--PetracA.
