C. LEADS IN ACTIVE SPINDLES MaHHurliiiHett* Hum Greatest I Number But on Ba?i* of; Spindle Hours Kun Yields to Carolina. Raleigh, April 3?North Carolina1 passed all states in the Union in the! number of uctlve spindles hours for the month of February, according toj a^ Statement issued here tonight Try" Frank Parker, agricultural statisti-, clan of the Stan*. This distinction ?according to Mr. Parker's state-' ment?came after the State had been recognized as having the greatest number of cotton mills and the largest yield of lint cotton per acre of the primary cotton states. | In obtaining a record of the greatest ? activity of the spindles the State in' February passed Massachusetts and South Carolina. "Massachusetts has long been] recognized as having the largest number of cotton spindles," read the, statement issued by the State sta-' tlstician. "These amount to 11,980,580 In place March 1, 1924, while North Carolina had but' 5,723.041. While pructically all of j North Carolina's wero active only! 8,708,160 were active during Feb ruary in Massachusetts. The aver age active spindle hours In February! showed 277 for South Carolina, 266 for North Carolina and 122 hours per spindle for Massachusetts. This! gives North Carolina 1,520,824.733 total active spindle hours for Feb ruary while Massachusetts had ai total of 1.459.283,256 hours and 8outh Carolina 1,436.633.830 hours. These three states distinctly | lead all others in active spindles. "The total for the United States; shows that the active spindles dur ing February were less than for' many months and considerably less than February a year ago. There are 1,288 cotton mills In the United States. North Carolina has 383 of this number. The State also has 142 knitting mills, 3 cordage mills, 3 silk mills and 7 woolen mills. Interest by northern mill man ufacturers In the Southern terri tory is distinctly active and It is known that the Increase In the num ber of splnles In the South Is far more rapid than it is in the New England states. That this Is well based Is also true of tho fact that In Massachusetts the average hour per spindle Is less than half of what It Is In iNorth Carolina; also that far more spindles are Idle In the northern territory than in the South. In fact the cotton growing states have less than 90 per cent of the number of spindles that the New England states have. The active Hplndles during February iihowed the South with ten per cent more than in tho North. The aver age hour per spindle In the South was 262. while In New England It was only 1-36."
