I s saiccess has iu spired othsrs, among them the Reedy Manufacturing Company, which ir ten years bas grown from 3,000 to 12,000 spindles, and pt&id for every thinm' out of its surplu.1. earnings. The Riverside Mills, at P u':ville, Va , began basiness in 1883, i' - .c p stock of $5,000, and to-d e r si talized sr $2,000,000, of wlh ...1,000, 000 is in preferred stock, wtiic h pav., 5 per cenat semi-an2aaby, and~ $11,000, 000 is in cnmmon stock, whbich pay s 4 per cent semi-innually. At some points in the Carolinas the managers will not give out thheir profits for publication, since they don't. *care to take the world into confidential relations concerning their business. There may be such a thing as too much dividend paying anad too much investment of surp'as in) extenIsions of the baIsiness. Some of the best mills in the So,uth have foundl themselves much e:mbarrassed for want of a sur * ~ plus, se. aside for tiding over a dull period. iThet gives the mon2y lenders a chance to "skia" the factory of a good part of its profits, by tacking on a high ;ate of interest. Ocje of the great :uihls at Co!nmbams, Ga , was hurt in that mafy, and in like marnner some of them at Augusta. There is not such acute demand by stockholders for a divide of all the profits. as there -was a few years ago, but there ie quite too much of this, which will, with time and the experience time brings,-enire itself. One part of Banker Hamum md'sa letter, that relating to the effect the mills round Greenville have had on the faru'ing business, is interestinag He says: "The building u,> of thece mill vil lages has made a home market for ibhe by-products of the farms, such as 'ege:tdes, poultry, and so forth, which heretofore have not been profit able, on account of the limited de mand for such products. As the re suit, untignone farm lands have (log bled and trebled in value. -I know of some instances iri the vicini:y of these uails whdra lands that were formerb uorth from$5 to $6 per acre, are now mth from $33. t.o'$100 per acre, aa:.d tm& increased .'.a'ess. at these price-, while befo're it cotd not be sold e t o lower prices. Another indir'ct tnst h is increated ; he price of s im the vicinity of the mi!:s - ar the a >Lton mii; so y- accumu' farm. Of course, under these condi tions, the value of our business has been increased, and, not only this, but farm methodt have been, improved, lands more carefully tended, better homes ereeted, better stock and an improved condition generally exists."
