The wonderful industrial de

the Census Bureau, giving the de-
velopement of manufacturing estab

year ending December 31st, 1904,
as compared with Hie same date

The three great manufacturing
industries of the State, cotton goods,
furniture and tobacco, have niide

reports of the 12th census, which!
were published in 1900. I

The case of the GastDn county
young girl, who was expelled from
school for refusing to study a text
book on agriculture, has provoked
no little comment, practically all of
our contemporaries expressing
sympathy for the girl and wonder
ment that a course in agriculture
should be required in a public
school. This Gaston county case is
riot isolated. We verily believe
that a majority of the public schools

herewith:
"This census was taken in con

March 6th 1902, and is confined to
the manufacturing establishments
with a product of $500 or over, thus
excluding the neighborhood in
dustries and hand trades, such as
the building trades, dressmaking,

of salaried officials from 118 to 28i!;
taDiisnments witn tu,o(o wage
earners and products valued at $94,
919,603. These totals are reduced
as nearly as possible to a compara
tive basis and the results presented
in the following tables, which show
the totals for the State and Wil
mington and the totals for five
principle industries in 1900 and
1905. The statistics indicate that
there has been a substantial increase
in the manufactures of the State.
The decrease in the number of es
tablishments is due to a decrease in
the number of small establishments
or to the inclusion of a few small
establishments in 190O that were
omitted in 1905 because they do not
form a part of a factory census.
The best indication of the progress
of manufactures is to be found in a
comparison otj the capital, wage
earners, wages, materials, and pro
ducts.

to $30,070,997, which is the most
remarkable showing made by any
branch of manufactures iu the
State. The increase in the salaried
J officials was from 491 to 534. It is
I worthy of note also that salaiies
