DOUBLED THEIR CAPITAL.

Washington. D. c., Nov. 3O.-A pre-
liminary statement of the general re-
suits of the census of manufacturers
for the City of Jackson, Miss, has been
issued by Director Sam L. Rodgers, of
the Bureau of the Census, Department
of Commerce.
The word establishment, as used
IN the census report may mean more
than one mill or plant, provided they
are owned or controlled and operated
by a single individual, partnership,
corporation, or other owner or op-
orators, and are located in the same
town or city.
The statistics represent the estab-
lishments located within the corporate
limits of the city.
The population of Jackson at the
census of 1910 was 1858, and it is es.
timated that it was 26,99O on July
1, 1914.
The summary shows a consistent in
crease at the census of 1914 as compar-
ed with that for 1909. In the order of
their Importance, from a percentage
standpoint, the increases for the sew
eral items rank as follows:
Capital. 63.4 per cent; primary horse
power, Al per cent; salaries, 1872 per
cent; materials, 35.7 per cent; wages,
257 per cent; value of products, 22.5
per cent; wage earners, 22.2 per cent.
The capital invested, as reported in
1914, was $2,6OS,OOO, a gain of $1,O12,-
900, or 63.4 per cent, over $1,596, 900
in 1909. The average capital per estab-
l!shment was approximately $4,000
in 1914 and $4,000 in 1909.
The cost of materials used in 1914
was $2,5i4,000, as against 81, ,S52, 900 in
1909, an increase of $662,O0O, or 35.7
per cent. The average cost of ma
terials per establishment in 1914 was
approximately $4,000, and in 1909,
$42, 900.
The census inquiry does not include
amounts paid for miscellaneous ex-
penses, such as rent of offices, royal
ties, insurance, ordinary repairs, adver.
tising, travelling expenses, or allow
Iances for depreciation.
The value of products in 1914 was
$4,000, and in 1909, $1,000, 900, the
increa5c being $665,00O, or 22.5 per
cent. The average per establishment
in 1914 was approximately $4,000, and
in 1909, $4,000.
The value of products represents
their selling value or price at the
plants as actually turned out by the
factories d ring the census year and
does not necessarily have any rela
tion to the amount of sales for that
year. The values under this head also
include amounts received for work
done on materials furnished by others
The salaries and wages in 1914
amounted to $659.000 and in 1909, s51O,.
900, the increase being $149,000, or 29.2
per cent.
In 1914 the number of salaried EN-.
ployes was l52, as compared with 12s
in 1909, making an increase of "a, OF
1873 per cent. The average number OF
wage earners in 1914 was 943. and in
1909, 772, the increase being III, or
22.2 per cent

LUMBER MARKET.
CONTINUES GOOD
LuMHERMEN REPORT PRICES ARE
HOLDING THEIR OWN WITH
UPWARD TENDENCIES.

The condition of the lumber market
in the Hattiesburg section continues
good, the manufacturers report.
Prices are holding their own with
an upward tendency. Demand con.
tinues good with plenty of orders for
everybody. The price of yellow pine
has scared so high on certain classes
of lumber that manufacturers are un
easy lest buyers turn their attention
to other sections for a substitute to
yellow pine.
While prices are exceptionally good,
many mills are not reaping the effects
of the rapid rise in that they had or
ders placed, the filling of which has
required all their time to the present
Only mills recently started up are get
ting the full benefit of the rapid rise
in prices.
Weather conditions are ideal. Coo
and clear weather prevails. The dust
has been disposed of and every condi
tion is good for big fall and early
winter output The expected car
shortage has not yet shown up in this
section. Cars are reasonably plentiful
and little trouble is experienced in
making shipments.
Meridian Reports.
Meridian, Miss, Nov. 30.-Brisk de.
mand and increasing prices have con.
tinued during the past week. AS a
consequence many items are exceed
ingly scarce and hard to get. Owing
to the especially heavy call for some
several items the mills and wholesal-
ers are finding it difficult to keep their
yard stocks properly proportioned. In
fact, practically all yard stocks in this
territory are quite low and badly
broken. Railroad material shows, per-
haps, greater increase in both de-
mand and price than anything else in
pine, but the market has improved re-
markably all along the line. Another
big export order has been placed with
the mills in this section, and the pres
ence of many Northern buyers, with
substantial orders to place, are fea-
lures that have added greatly to the
feeling of optimism already prevailing
here. While weather conditions are
still, the first ofiwinter rains has come,
and all mills are operating to full ca
pacity in an endeavor to manufacture
everything possible before bad wealth
er interferes

CITY STUDENTS
HEALTHIER THAN
THOSE IN COUNTRY

That students are healthier In the
city than In the country has been
proven by an investigation insti-
tuted by the National Council of
Education and the American Medi-
cal association. The investigation
showed that the country schools
are not nearly as sanitary as those
in the city.
II has been found also. that not
one state in 1ve gives the country
school children the same kind OF
medical attention and inspection
which the cities require.
More than threefourths OF the
100000 country school children In
Pennsylvania are In need Of some
medical attention. while In New
York city. with nearly 1000. 900
school children. but so per cent
are defective, although living con-
ditions there are very bad.
Another peculiar fact is that
while country pupils are supposed
TO breathe purer air. there are more
cases OF tuberculosis among them
than among city pupils.
Eight per cent Of the students In
the rural districts are mental defec-
tives. while but two per cent are so
listed In the city schools.
Eight and eight-tenths per cent Of
the school children inspected In Is
cities suffer with tonsilitis. while
the same ailment affects 80 per cent
OF the rural school children.
Twenty-one and eisht-tenths per
cent Of the country children suffer
from some eye trouble, while but
81 per cent OF the city children are
affected In the same manner.
But one per cent Of the city stu
dents suffer from ear trouble. while
in the country nearly five per cent
do.
There are no free school clinics
IN the country educational institu-
tons, whereas the city educational
systems have competent doctors
for the students and graduate school
nurses. who teach the children and
the parents TO use school clinics
and observe simple health rules.

Simplicity and seience-Hints for
Young Housekeepers
There are many young housekeep-
err who step out of well-appointed.
easily-running establishments into
homes Of their own. with no practi-
cal knowledge of the business they
have taken In hand.
Every novice wears away much
good nerve tissue in q multiplicity
Of doings which come under the
head Of Improbable labor" These
may be soon worked out of. and I'M
der this head let us consider what
simplicity means in the food line.
OF course, the food We desire to
place on our table shall be OF the
best.
Why. then, shall we not serve It
simply?
II meat. why not boil or roast It
perfectly and let 1t go at that?
Why should any food as de-
licious and nutritious as chicken be
boiled. and chopped. seasoned and
favored, Dreaded and egged and
fried In fat!
There are often leftover meats
which must be used. but Why cook
and re-cook them till they have
about As much nutrition as shoe
leather!
Slice them dellcately and serve
with them some hot and appetizing
sauce, either from stock or OF vege-
table composition, and you provide
better and more healthful food than
the daintiest croquette that was ever
made.

IN the buying - In the using OF the
supply. How to get. the best value
Tor her money receives but scant at
tsntion from the average house
keeper.
Il u quite generally conceded that
the best way to buy groceries Is 10
personally attend the market and
select them and pay cash for them.
But the fact II that very few people
do his. The busy housekeeper can
not dress herself In street costume
and visit the market every day. She
prefers to take less for her money
ana order II In some more conven-
lent way. and she generally vel
comes the order boy. But he Is
something OF q nuisance. neverthe-
less. He comes often when the ar
rangements for the day have not
been matured.
II the grocer cannot be visited
personally. the telephone Is the next
best agent. 1t Is paying invest.
ment, and much more satisfactory
than children's orders or those of
the delivery boy.
In starting with new grocer Q
should always keep his
education well in MIND In the irst
place, let him learn that she Is just
as good as cash. She should see
to It that her bills are paid regu-
larry. Then let him know that she
depends on his honor to send her
only such goods as she would select
II she were present. The grocer
quickly learns to distinguish be.
tween the careless and the careful
between the one who pays
and the one who promises, and he
learns where to send his inferior
goods.
Neglect of business methods Is .
way Of going business and
h quite % reprehensible a. SLOW

keep the grocery account ID one Of the
questions. There are va
rious ways. The easiest way 10 to
let your husband settle 1t without
question or debate. This IL the
too. but Il Ii the most
satisfactory. The best and most
method II for the mer-
chant to send with each purchase .
