No A'here eise in the world than io the South is it possible for a rail road to issue a detailed statement showing that, its i ines reach 790 textile-manufacturing plants. In other countries it may be possible to fhow a larger mun ber of spindles by reason of the size of the mills, but we believe that no other road in the world can claim to have on its lines 79U cotton mills, as is the case with the Southern Railway Co. A textile directory just issued by the land and industrial department of that road gives details of these 7'JO mills, showing the equipment in looms and spindles, the power used and the character of the pro duct turned out. The fact that one road in the South is able to show as many cotton mills on its line as this story of the Southern Railway presents is a striking commentary on the extent of the industrial ac tivities of this section. These mills have an aggregate of 9,3(59,634 spindles and 208,744 looms. They are found in the whole central South from Virginia through the Caroli nas, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, with two in Indiana and three in Missouri located on subsidiary lines of the Southern Railway.-Manu* f icturer's Record.
