FOKMKR A" VI CE OF LANDS, 'When these mills were pr,,j. eled the value otred . stale or farm lands in the I Mil rounding country was s nail, certainly not over i'i to ItO per ac e. The system j of cultivation then in vogue wast rude, and .;enerally the farms weie dilapidated and little cared for. 1 IMPROVED MARKET FOR PKODUC E. ' These I ictories, when ..nee in opt r,i ; lion, awakcue I a new spirit among the 'fanners, who soon reiiizcl the tact that potatoes, turnips and every food crop for j man and b. ast found a ready every -day ' cash maiket at tln u- ery door-, due to I the a-Si mbliige . 1 factory opeiativtsas ! consumers at Pelz "i" and Piedmont The j result was that renewed attention was ' given to farm improvements aud the pro duction ol food crops wli-li hud hitherto been neglctbt d. alt interest having been given to the production of the only sala ble crop the a and piewously known cotlon. At the -iin.e time the local ,le ; mantl and market f.r copou lor the mills lias put on it and kept on il a premium of Irom one-eighth Io one-quarter cf a cent per pound, aud ofiea even more. On this . baS's, on t very bale raised will. iu the I wagon uiorket limit ol these two factories I the .iifleieiice at the minimum calculation would I Irom sixty tenls to 1.20 a bale, ; of on 30.0W bales" $1 ,000 to S:JK,()00 a I year, equal in fif'ieen years tt. $270,000 to , $540,000, all of which has gone into the j pockets of adjacent farnii rs; and while llie-e factories did not consume every bale produced within their territorial limits, I yet they fixed the price and put the pre mium on all of it that was shipped : away. ' THE KAP.MEK S PH0KITS. I ""Ii we had any data upon winch to sum up and lix the profits ma le in the last fifteen years by farmers living around 1 these towns made from the sale of vege tables and farm products and wood as fuel to the factory p ople the amount 1 would doubtless be very large, perhaps j million; and yet these profits weie scat : teted among jieople who never contrib- ined a cent towards the I uibling of eiltier . of these large and prosperous industi ies. i "While tin' building and operation ol 1 these mills have proven highly reniuner I ative to those who invested money in them, and while tiieii stock is in great de mand at more than double its original cost, it may seem si range, but it is a fact, th it the people of tne surrounding coun , try who o.vn the larm lands have in the . aggregate bjen benefited to an amount in eee.-s of the entire cost of both factories. ENH ANCKI) V U.I'K OP LAM). "From a point midway between Pied mont and Pelzer describe a circle or ini iginary Hue with a radius of ten miles. Such circumference will enclose 200,000 , acres of farm la-iW. Suppose the bmld : ing of these factories placet! upon these ; 21)0.000 acres of hmd an incieased and : enhanced value ot $ " per acre, anil the : -u a is $1,000,000; at $10ier acre $2 0)0. I 000, ml, I at 15' 3,000,000, aud at $20 I $4,000,000 of eiihmcid value. Taking ! ten as the true limit, it gives a profit to I hi..- ou ners of land within a rad iisol ten miles of $200,000 more of i-uhanced 'values than the entire capitaliz ition of both Piedmout and Pe'z r, all ol which ; litis accrued to tin 111 without iheir mak ing a c nt of in vest men' . 'The w riter has rcpeiredly talked to in telligent ami educated farmers who live within two io ten miles, of these factory towns, and most of tliem place the in creased value of iheir lands resultant on tin- building of these factories at from $15 to per acre. As a fact, no lanns within ten miles ofeitlnr lo.vn can u-iw be purchased at less than $2" or 30 per acre, and many wid now command a greater price than this even. AN INSTANCE. "Seventeen years ago, when Col. II. P. lldiiimett purchasecf the hinds: neir and on which P'edmout now stands at $"i per 1 acre, there was living nearby an old anil lespectable farmer 011 a woruout and di lapidated larm with a house to corres pond, the root even being w 'irn"Ut an I ieaky. lie had II" red his farm time au-l lime again at fi per ucrc, and li lally tried to g. t $4 50 per acre to enable him to move to Alabama or Texas ha oriLr to get better land. Failing to sell he re mained . and when the noise ol the loom and the hum of the spindle were heard near him, took heart, begun to farm better and to sell wood, turnips anil farm truck, put a ne" roof on his house, cut away the briars and thorns, fixed up the place generally aud has since sold 100 of his surplus acres at $10 to $7 per acre, and could now get 70 per acre far the 200 left ,- and this honest old farmer is but one of the many who have found themselves lettered by the successful enterprises ot others.'' Facts such as the correspondent gives above, prove logically, not only that the farmeis are benefitted by manufacturing enterprises, but that the merchants also are, in turn, farther benefitted by the prosperity ot the farmers, in that they also, as wed as those directly connected witli the factory, have their ppendiog money increased by the presence of the factories. These things being so, is it not the part of wisdom for all classes of citizens, both in town and country, to do everything possible for the promotion of all such enterprises": An exchange says there is is an epi demic of measles at the Oxford Orphan Asylum.
