Prizes for Calhoun Fair.
St. Matthews.?At a meeting of the
directors of the Calhoun County Fair
Association recently it was decided
to expand the programme in the way
of especial prizes, which would serve
to stimulate commendable and valuable
endeavor. About $390 extra was
subscribed for special prizes. Ninety
dollars was subscribed for a special
field display, $50 for a household display
(women). $25 for corn clubs and
$25 for tomato clubs and the last two
may finally reach $50 each, when subscriptions
are all in.
Florence is Growing.
Florence.?The building record in
Florence shows no diminution. The
creation of the new office of building
inspector with the requirement in the
building ordinance for permits to be
Issued shows that Florence is keeping
up her record of more than a
house a day for every day in the
year. Besides a number of dwellings
that are being built in different
parts of the city, there are in course
j of construction now the handsome
new $50,003 Methodist church and
numerous others.

Columbia.
E. J. "Watson, commissioner of agriculture,
commerce and industries, j
has completed his statistical report
for 1913 on the textile Industry In1
South Carolina. The figures show an
Increase in capitalization, an increase
in the value of the annual product, a
decrease in the number of bales of
cotton consumed and an increase in
the number of operatives employed by
the cotton mills of the state.
The total number of people employ-1
ed by the mills last year was 49,695,!
an increase of 1,938 over 1912. Of
those, 30,317 were white males and
15,218 white females. The increase in
the number of females employed this 1
year over last year was only 315. Mr. i
Watson considers this an Indication
that male labor is supplanting female
l&bor to some degree in the South
Carolina mills. This end is desired by
all who have the betterment of the
race at heart. I
In 1913 the mills of South Carolina
had a total capital of $88,674,738, an
increase of $4,905,092 over 1912. The
value of their product in 1913 was
$84,490,674, which approximates close-1
ly the value of the state cotton crop,
for this year. By August, 1913, the |
value of the products of the cotton
mills exceeded that for the same period
during 1912 by $5,239,513. The
final figures now being compiled in-1
dicate that the value of the produce
during 1913 will exceed those of 1912
by nearly $11,000,000.
In 1913 the mills consumed 800,295
bales of cotton, which was 21,271
bales less than the amount used in
1912. Mr. Watson attributes this decrease
to the fact that many of the
mills of the state are making a finei
grade of cloth which calls for less
cotton.
The statistics for 1913 show the decrease
of 29,716 tons in the amount of
coal consumed by the mills as compared
to 1912. This is due, says Mr.
Watson, to the increased use of electric
power.
During 1913 the mills paid the!*1
employes $14,906,848, an increase of
$1,242,910 over 1912. The figures do [
not include the salaries of office forces
or oificers, but simply the wages of
I roc I
Mr. Watson pointed out recently
that it was impossible to determine
the average wage of the employes of
the mills by dividing the number of
operatives into the total sum of their
wages, on account of the fact that so
many of the operatives did plec*
work.
The total number of spindles in
1913 is 4,527.430, an increase of 153,516
over 1912.
The total number of looms was
111.4S3 in 1913, an increase of 4,813
over 1912. j
Clarendon Has Great School Fair.
The Clarendon county school fait
and the "better babies" contest, held
here recently drew one of the largest
assemblies of people ever seen in Manning
and all were pleased beyond
measure at the all round success of
the occasion. The pupils of about 25
schools in the county attended the
meeting. j
motion rteporr ror oouin v/aroima.
According (o a Btatement issued by
the United States census bureau recently
1,160,815 running bules of cotton
have been ginned in South Carolina
prior to December 1, as compared
to 1,041,639 to the same date last year.
