WHY DANDRUFF
CAUSES BALDNESS
Get rid of dandruff if you have it
and the sooner the better. Dandruff
causes baldness by choking the pore3
of the scalp so that the hair roots do
not obtain proper nourishment.
There 13 just one delightful hair
tonic so compounded that besides
ending itching scalp almost over
night, and stopping hair from fall
ing, it will remove every particle of
dandruff after just a few applica
tions. ..!-
Ask your' druggist for a bottle of
Parisian Sag, a hair beautifier, tonic
and scalp invigorator that every
druggist knows always produces re
sults. Thousands of women use il
because they know that nothing else
makes the hair so radiantly beauti
ful and fascinating. J. E. Hood &
Co. always guarantee Parisian Sage.

XL Facts About Industries. -.
The manufacturing industries of
Lenoir are not extensive as yctl In
1915 there were 34 establishments
with a total capital Invested of $1,-
121463, employing 1,187 factory op
eratives. . The yearly output was II,
625.771. . ' . ;." ;" V;
The 44 establishments may : be
classified as follows: 5 lumbar and
timber concerns, 6 woodworking es
tablishments, 4 buggy and wagon
factories, 3 tobacco factories, 3 bot
tling works, 1 bakery, 3 mattress
works, 1 marble works, 2 publishing
and printing establishments, 1 steam
laundry, 1 oil and ice company,
sheet metal works, and 3 cotton
mills. There are other small con
cerns that do not admit of cla&sifica
tion. There were 14 concerns which
invested over $10,000 capital stock
as follows: Hines Bros. Lumber Co.,
$200,000; Coca Cola Bottling Wks.,
$32,165; Hudson Buggy Co., $24,500;
Ellis Carriage Works, $67,514; Kin
ston Steam Laundry, $16,000; Lenoir
Oil and Ice Company, $167,450; Rut
ledge & Co., $52,800; Sitterson Bot
tling Works, $15,700; Whitfield
Buggy Works, $21,500; Rouse
Veneer and Panel Co.. $32,850; Cas
Well Cotton Mills, $100,000; Kinston
Cotton Mills, $230,000; Orion Knit
ting Mills, $115,000.
Shipman's annual report from the
Bureau of Labor and Printing for
1015 gives no facts about the Kins
ton Manufacturing Co. It also does
not mention a few minor manufac
turing etablishments. These con
cerns evidently made no report to
the Commissioner of Labor.
VII. Resources and Opportunities.
Named in the order of importance
the resources of Lenoir are as fol
lows: Agricultue, manufacturing
and wood-working industries, timber,
water power, and minerals.
1. The agricultural resources are
boundless. In the census year the
annual production of farm wealth
amounted to $2,143,247, and only
.9.2 per cent, of the land of Lenoir
was under cultivation. In the pro
duction of food and feed supplies
Lenoir stood 32nd in corn production;
9th in tobacco production in 1910;
7 tli in hogs per 1,000 acres; 9th in
wheat production per acre; 37t.h in
hay and forage production; 38th in
oats production.
We stand 5th in annual produc
tion of farm wealth per person with
$135.8, and 8th in per capita coun
try wealth, wiih $386 per inhabitant.
There is a great future for the
farmers of Lenoir and the first to
adopt the most modern methods of
farming and marketing will be the
first to reap the great rewards.
2. T'he second resource of import
ance is our manufacturing. The
people of Lenoir are just beginning
to realize the possibilities that are
before them in the manufacturing
world, the. Chamber of Commerce of
Kinston beang the leading factor in
this development. There is a great
variety of manufacturing establish
ments in- Lenoir, all of which show
marked progress in their recent de
velopment. In 1915 the capital in
vested in manufacturing was $1428,
168; the yearly output was $1,625,
774. The country over the anmuS
output of manufactured products just
about equals the capital stock; but
in Lenoir. the output is 45 per cent,
greater. . t' . ;
3. The third resource oft importance
is the timber supply pt Lehoirj There
are about 30,000 acres of loblolly
pine and-SO.OQP.OOO feet of standing
long-leaf- piine in the county. Scat
tered throughout the county are

Water Power.
The water powers of Lenoir are
almost wholly undeveloped. The
Neuse river flows through the central
part of the county. The stream at
many points is very sitiggish, and
consequently it would be very diffi
cult to get the desired waterfall to
develop much horsepower. At eome
points the fall is from 20 to 27 feet.
hich if properly utilized would fur-
ish water power enough for the

euse there are three flour and grist
mills with a total horse iower of 86.
Mineral Resources. ,
The mineral resources of Lenoir
are of minor importance 'The only
ones that are worth mentioning are a
few beds of sand gTae, limestone,
kaolin, and brick clay." The estimat
ed value of the mineral! wealth kl
1910 was $6,000. , .
