WORST DROUTH
 IN EIGHT YEARS
FOREST FIRES DO GREAT DAM. AGE TO TIMBER THROUGH
 OUT THE STATE
MANY CROPS ARE RUINED
Somethine Of Former Drouths That Have Proven Damaging To Crops. Bad One In Year
 1914.

Little Rock.-Rains were general throughout the state last week, but according to reports received here were not sufficient to really break the drouth which has extended over the past several weeks. Rain fell in Lit tie Rock, Hot Springs, Russellvyille, Clinton, Harrisburg and other towns in various sections of the state.
 The drouth, according to records at Ee Little Rock Weather Bureau, has lasted since the latter part of July. In Little Rock there has been only 176 inches of rainfall since August L
 In the Ozark and Arkansas national forests since the drouth began many forest fires have occurred which have caused irreparable damage to the timber, according to reports from the offices of the forest supervisors. G. A. Plymale, supervisor of the Arkan- gas forest, with headquarters at Hot Springs, said that the damage in the Arkansas forest would amount to at least $25000, and that this damage was but "a drop in the bucket" com
 
 serve in forests adjacent to the re- serve.
 Most of the fires, Mr Plymale said, were due to incendiarism, and because of the extreme dryness of the woods, were almost impossible to extinguish before considerable damage was done.
 The damage to crops cannot be es- timated and is covered by crop re- ports only in a general way. How ever, that the drouth has damaged practically all crops and entirely ruin ed some is reported from many sec tons.
 The present drouth is probably the worst in the state since 1914. In that year there was only .02 of an inch of rainfall at Little Rock during an 81- day period from May 13 to August L During practically the same period Prescott reported only 1.02 inches of rain in 90 days, and Helena 57 inch in 47 days. In the same year Texarkana had only 1 of an inch during the 63 days from May 30 to July l. inclusive, and only .92 inches in the 63 days from September 25 to November 26.

TEXTILE INDUSTRY
MOVING south
NEW HEAD OF NATIONAL ASSO-
CATION THINKS NEW ENG
LAND DOOMED TO LOSE.

The New York Journal of Commerce
is quoted as follows:
"The new president Of the Nation
al Association of Cotton Manufacture
ers, Robert Amory, in accepting the
office at the close of today's election,
delivered an address in which he
pointed out with vigorous force the
probability that Massachusetts and
other New England states ere doomed
to lose the textile industry, and that
ITS future field will be in the South.
1t was due, he said, almost wholly
to the antago;1istic legislation inspired
by labor organizations and even II
corrective measures were taken now,
it is doubtful if the situation could
be changed.
"The members of the National AS
sociation of Cotton Manufacturers rep
resent mills from Maine to California.
The majority of the members are
here in New England" he said.
"The cotton manufacturing indus
try started in New England over a
century ago, md has been for long
time its largest and most important
source of livelihood Throughout the
history of the industry it has been
highly competitive and is unlike many
other industries, not dominated by
any one man or group of men. Its
largest unit does not represent as
much as per cent. of the whole.
"The membership of the association
represents nearly 2O,OOO,0OO spindles,
of which over half are in Massachu-
sets. In 1900 there were 100000
spindles in New England and 4,50O,
COO in the cotton growing states.
Today there aNe 2o,OOO,OOO spindles in
New England and 100000 in the
cotton growing states, an increase OF
S4 per cent. in New England against
24S Der cent. in the cotton growing
states. And last month the cotton
growing states spun IS per cent. OF
the cotton against 35 per cent. for
all other states. It is time to study
this situation and act.
Massachusetts alone contains over
half the spindles in New England, or
nearly one-third Of those in the whole
United States; this against about one
kalf in 1900. She is rapidly losing
her position. Since 1900 there have
been installed in Massachusetts, A.
100000 new spindles against $780,
COO in North and South Carolina and
Virginia.
'It Dwll to stop and examine the
reasons. we51Axe the skill and capi-
tai. But capital will always 60 where
it can get the largest return and it
can move easily. Skilled management
moves slowly because these men like
to live in New England, but they too,
will eventually go where there is the
largest opportunity, and they have
been going faster than is generally
realized.
'In 1887 a New England mill ran
The county record. [volume] (Kingstree, S.C.) 1885-1975, 1922-05-25

seventy-fonr hours a week ct an aver
age wage of s345 per week: and a
tarrel of flour cost $3.50 then. These
operatives were born and bred New
Englanders. With these long hours
and these wages operatives were
drawn from the farms.
"The hours were reduced in Mas
sachusetts in 1874 to sixty, in 1892
to fifty-eight, in 1908 to fifty-six, in
1918 to ffty-four and in February,
1919, duril.g the postwar boom, to
forty-eight. Taxes have grown enor-
mously and must all be earned IN
these rapidly shortening hours. Holi-
days have been increased and usually
in the winter time when most Of us
can not use then to advantage.
"Other states have encouraged In
Gustry at least bv keeping their laws
more liberal and their taxes less.
Our principal competition comes from
the Piedmont district of North and
South Carolina. There tie climate is
good and bracing. The operatives are
,ure-bred American stock from the
mountains. Like our original New
Englanders they have had hard work
to make living, and appreciate op-
portunity. Work is not only a nec-
essity but also 4 pleasure. These
people are of great native intelligence
and quick to learn. Mills have sprung
up on every hand. Every little town
wants a mill and offers free land,
exemption from taxation and all sorts
of encouragement for the man who
knows how to make cloth and will
start the mill.
Zone of the principal reasons for
this rapid growth is the assistance
our Massachusetts, laws have given
the Carolina mills by restricting our
hours of work way below theirs. In
many ways our laws hamper and re-
strict our greatest home industry by
ether annoying and expensive pieces
tf legislation, Lot to mention far
higher taxes.
"The record is clear enough, the
cotton industry is gradually slipping
away. In the past various factors
have helped us. Massachusetts, has
far more skilled help and oversight.
We had the finishing works where
Southern goods must be shipped to
be bleached, dyed, or printed. Now
there is excellent skilled help and
supervision in the South. Finishing
works are starting up by leaps and
bounds.
"In the past the difference between
sixty hours in Massachusetts, and
sity-six hours in the South was not
the handicap that it seems, for the
fatigue of the worker made the ex-
ira hours much less productive. Then
we came to fifty-four hours and the
South to sixty. Here we were under
a greater handicap and the industry
moved away from US faster. Then
Massachusetts goes to forty-eight
hours, the only industrial state to
have such law, and has to compete
with fifty-fve and sixty hours in the
South. The results are appalling.
North and South Carolina together
have now approximately the same
number of spindles as Massachusetts,.
In September the production Of the
Carolinas was 255,000,000 spindle
hours, or 35.7 per cent. more than
