Use OF COTTON
SHOWS INCREASE

Continued increase in cotton con-
sumption was made during November,
and as indicated by the census reports
the gain was entirely due t the
greater activity of southern mills.
Of the 42S,S7o bales of cotton us
ed in November, mills in the cotton
growing states took 35S,942 bales or
80 per cent. While southern mills were
increasing consumption compared with
November, 1880, mills outside of the
south used $4,000 bales less during
the same period. The decrease in the
New England states amounted to H.
900 bales.
For the four months ended No
vember 80, mills in the cotton grow
ing states consumed 1860 bales
or about 81 per cent of the coun-
try's total. This was a gain for the
south of $4,000 bales compared with
the same four months of 1880. Mills
outside of the south showed an in
crease of only $500 bales. New Eng
land mills consumed 1900 bales less.
Cotton-spindle activity during No
vember in the cotton-growing states
numbered 16,967,ooo, a gain of 49,
800 active spindles compared with
November, 1880. On the other hand,
New England with $685. 900 spindles
during November showed a loss of
100000 active spindles compared
with November, 1880.
There are now 1~1,914,000 spindles
in place, about SO per cent being &C
tive, in November, in New England,
as compared with 19,oS1,ooo spindles
in place in the cotton-growing states
of which about 80 per cent were &C
tive in November.
The aggregate number of active
spindle hours for all mills in the Unit
ed States in November was 6,O14,-
$4,000. The cotton growing states
reported 4,773,910,000 active spindle
hours for November as compared with
1,081,240,o00 active spindle hours in
New England mills. The average per
spindle in place in the mills in the
cotton-growing states was $50 hours
as against an average of 81 active spin
die hours for spindles in place in the
New England mills.

P. & n. CASE ON
COURT DOCKET

The case in which the Piedmont
& Northern railway is appealing from
a decision in United States district
court in South Carolina restraining
the railway from carrying out its
proposed $15,00O,o00 expansion pro-
gram in the Carolinas has been dock
eted in United States circuit court of
appeals.
The appeal will come up in the
circuit court in Richmond for hear
ing at the April term.
The Interstate Commerce commits
sion and a number of steam railways
operating in this section are protest
ing against the proposed extensions of
the electric railway, which is seeking
the right to join its two separate lines
in the Carolinas by a link between
Gastonia and Spartanburg and to
build an addition from Charlotte to
Winston-Salem.
The case has already been before
the United States supreme court one
time, and it is believed that it will
finally reach the higher court again.

DECEMBER HAD
PLENTY OF RAIN

The warm rain that fell on the last
day of 1881 helped to put December
in the record-breaking class as far, a.
weather is concerned and added tc
the excess in rainfall for the year.
December was the second warmest
December in 50 years.
The year ended with an excess of
3.21 inches of rain, as compared with
a deficiency of 1923 in 1880. The
last month had a rainfall of 1923
inches, which is 7.3S inches above the
normal December volume. The previ-
ous December record was 9.52 inches
in 1927. The Christmas season was
noted for its warm and fair weather,
although the whole month was much
warmer than the usual December.
The new year was ushered in by
rain and clouds, which gave way to
clearing and colder weather late in
the afternoon.
DEFENDERS mean temperature was
sos degrees, averaging 7.6 degrees
above normal. The high mark of 70
degrees December 20 was the record
since the establishment of the bureau.
The previous record for December was
76 degrees, December 26, 1889.
New records for high temperatures
on individual dates were as follows:
76 degrees on the 18th; y degrees
on the 18th; Is degrees on the 10Th;
70 degrees on the 10th; 6S degrees
on the 23rd, and II degrees on the

'sMoonshine" Schools
Begin In Avery
County Mountain.

ENTHUSIASTICALLY Endorsed by
President Hoover, an interesting ex-
pertinent in "moonshine" education
has been inaugurated in Avery coun-
ty.
Night schools, known in the noun
tain vernacular as moonlight book
larnin' shindigs," were opened in
churches, private homes and public
buildings in all sections of the coun-
ty. Civic, religious, social and bust
ness agencies combined in an enthusi-
astic effort % reduce the high rate of
illiteracy among the mountain peo-
pie.
All of the teachers volunteered
their services without pay. Some of
them are employed in the regular
county day schools; several are high
school seniors, but the majority are
college and high school graduates of
widely varying ages and stations in
life who have become enthused over
the plans for bringing knowledge to
a people eager to secure its advantages.
Located in one of the most %inacces-
sible regions of the Blue Ridge noun
tains, Avery was organized from parts
of Caldwell, Mitchell and Watauga
in 1911. 1t is one of the most sparse
ly populated counties in the state. Of
its total population of 11,So3, there
are SS8 who cannot read or write. In
addition there are many semi-illiter-
ates, persons who can barely write
their own names and read a few sim
pie sentences.

tunitv to ottepd school to cec,,re

some of the advantages which have
been denied them. Probably more i'm
portant than their actual lack of
knowledge is the sense of inferiority
engendered by realization of their ed
vocational disadvantages.
The schools are organized in large
and small units throughout the coun-
ty. Two sessions are held each night.
Each period is of As minutes, with an
interval devoted to social activities and
refreshments. Two teachers conduct
each class, alternating in teaching the
various subjects.
An eight-week term is planned.
County school buses are operating for
the night school students when gaso-
line and oil are provided by donation or
appropriation, for their operation
A celebration will be held at the
courthouse in Newland when the term
is completed. A number of contests,
including an old-fashioned spelling
bee, are being arranged in connection
with the celebration.
Sponsoring the moonlight schools
are the board of education of Avery
county and George M. Bowman, of
Elk Park, superintendent of county
schools. Wallace Buchanan, c. Min
neapolis, is in active charge Of the ed
ucational campaign in Avery which
has eliminated in establishment of
the night schools.
Prizes have been offered for the in
dividuals teaching the oldest man and
woman to read and write.
In reply to a letter from Mr.. Bow
man outlining plans for the schools
Herbert Hoover, President of the Unit
ed States, wrote:
II am interested to learn Of your
adult educational work in Avery coun-
ty, and send you cordial good wishes
for its success"

COTTON PRICES
SHOW STEADY
INCREASES

NEW YORK, Sept. 2 GN.SD.
Cotton futures staged a sharp
rally today reversing the trend Of
the past few sessions, with the
run of contracts advancing about
50 a bale. Bullish sentiment was
revived as heavy rains obtained in
the central and eastern belt and
a FoSsick report estimated the
crop at 100000 bales under the
last Government report, the small
est figure yet advanced.
At the opening, futures re-
bounded 81 to $l.50 a bale, fol-
lowing a run-up at Liverpool. AS
the day advanced, buying orders
came into the ring in fair vol
ume. This, combined with a good
deal of short covering, served as
an added stimulant to the mar
ket and contracts moved higher.
A leading crop house estimated
cotton condition at 566, against
67.2 a month ago when the Gov
ernment made it 65.6. The 10
year average is 55.l.
The firm noted All indicated
crop of 100000 bales of 500
pounds or under 100000 run
ming bales. The report said dry.
warm weather is needed over the
entire belt except in a few sec
tions, adding that the crop is late
and weeVil infestation heavy. Con-
tinuation Of rainy weather dur
ing September, would, it is be-
lieved,. under present conditions,
