The Goldsboro Argus has the fol lowing important hint, which it wou'd be well for our farmers and capitalists to think about: Editor McClure,in his speech at the exposition, said that oalintr cotton destroyed one tenth of its value. If this is true it is an important item in the manufacture of cotton, and it cannot be long before the cotton will be manufactured where it is raised, and thus prevent the enormous waste of one tenth its value in the process of baling, an 1 save the great outlay for bagging and ties. When tt is is fully learned, we should think that there would be a half dozen instead of one cotton factory in process of erection in our town. Suppose our business men look into this matter.
