F’rinstance: as is the wont of those
who have been fortunate enough to
reside in the good old Sandhill Sec

To his surprise a husky six-foot
w^ll-to-do member of the group of
^‘old-timers” who were listening ejac
ulated “You bet, see what it did for
me! Why, when I came here I didn’t
have a cent in the world, couldn’t do
a thing for myself, had to be wheeled
about and weighed less than a hun

looked, and somebody asked ^‘What

ville and Hemp, and is among the
biggest buyers of rayon yarns in this
country.
Already the transfer of the mill
has stimulated affairs in the Hemp
section. E. R. Brown is figuring on
five new houses to rent to the new
employes, in addition to the building
that has been going on, and it is be
lieved Hemp is set for a marked in
crease in industrial activity all along
the line. A retail department is carried
on in connection with the mill, where
full length goods are sold, and also
where mill ends are offered at re
markably low prices for a quality of
goods that is perfect in every way
and on which low prices are made
solely because of the length of the
pieces. In rolling the webs the
lengths of the merchantable pieces for
the trade is sixty feet. But in weav
ing the web is usually made up in
greater length to care for variation
in yardage, and in cutting the cloth
:or shipment in even length bolts what
is called a mill end is left over, us
ually from a yard or two up to six
or eight yards and sometimes a little
more. This is made up in bolts of two
or three pieces to equal 10 yards and
that lot is sold at the reduced fig
ure, and a trade has been developed
that reaches from Maine to Florida.
A vast quantity of this goods goes
out in this way and affords material
foi the women to make their dresses
and clothing at remarkably lo'w
price.
Mr. Lovelace and Mr. Harte say the
rayon industry has passed the experi
mental stages and that it has become
a staple of industrial activity, and
that the past two or three years has
seen such perfection in the produc
tion of yarn that it is now only a
ciuestion of meeting the needs of the
p rowing trade, and in looking over
the technical mag'azin«s that deal
with chemical and textile industries
it is seen that the new fabric is ac
cepted by the buyers of textiles with
familiarity as to its character and
confidence in its worth and a knowl
edge of tis costs and usefulness.
The importance of this mill at
Hemp and its attendant increase in
looms is best understood by a refer
ence to a recent issue of a Chemi
cal trades publication which tells
that the increase of rayon production
annually is running along at twenty
per cent a year, with the prediction
that this year the increase will be
more than thirty per cent over 1929,
and a future that will see a contin
ued increase of production of rayon
yarns and with it an increase in the
output of rayon weaving mills. The
fabric is so satisfactory that the wo
men have adopted it instead of silk,
and its price is so reasonable that it
is supplanting cotton in innumerable
directions. Incidentally while rayon
fabrics have been increasing by over
twenty per cent cotton fabrics have
been increasing by scarcely more than
cne per cent a year, showing the
hold the new textile is gaining on the
country. The United States is by far
the largest producer of rayon, mak
ing half as much as all the rest of
HEATER TIME
the world combined. With that we
import still more to meet the grow
ing demand for it. With the rayon
made in this country and the amount
imported we approach closely to con
suming half that is made in the en
tire world, which is mentioned to
show ijiat the enlargement of the
mill at Hemp is based on the sound
est of economic reasons. It is logical to
expect to see the mill there grow to
larger proportions, for it has several
substantial reasons in its favor. Elec
tric power, a good climate in a com
munity where excellent labor is avail
able, convenience to the supply of
rayon yarn, for big yarn mills are
in existence in this state, Tennessee
and Virginia, and the further fact
that cotton lintera enter into th-e
manufacture of the yarns.
After looking over the situation at
Hemp, and studying it in the techni
cal journals after coming home I am
much impressed by the entrance of
the new money and influence into the
rayon industry in Moore county, for
the connections of the Pinehurst Silk
Mills at Hemp seem now to be of
a character to establish the plant on
such a firm and broad relation that
it looks like the beginning of a man
ufacturing industry there that should
grow into something of magnitude.
The mill has had its share of ups
and downs since it was first open
ed, but it was located with judg
ment, and in a community that was
logical, and with its financial position
row definite, and its fixed contact
with the marketing and finishing
world, I feel confident that the Hemp
section has been put on the map in
a decidedly optimistic position. All
the sig^ns indicate that a change for
the better in the upper part of the
county is now taking place.

You see them everywhere—children
who are disobedient, rude, unpopular
with others. But these children weren’t
born that way. These undesirable
traits developed gradually, because
some parent made bad mistakes in
child training. Not because he intend

stand child psychology, didn’t know

his child to successful living.

The Feed Problem for All the Animals
Is Solved By
THE nNEHURST WAREHOUSES
Pinehurst, N. C.
The dry summer made a shortage of feed in many places.
It made much inferior stuff, and some wholly useless.
But as always, the Pinehurst Warehouses, have the right
quality of grain and hay, and in quantities that provide for the
winter.
Dairy Feeds this fall are a little cheaper. Growers find them
selves with not so good an outlet for feeds and good material has
come to our notice at reduced figures. The buyer gets the bene
fit.
In horse feeds the famous Lancaster, Pennsylvania, oats,
came through the dry summer in good shape, and the Warehouses
have the excellent grain in good supply. Timothy hay from the
Lima, Ohio, timothy belt. All horsemen know timothy hay, and
they know Lima hay. Extra choice, and none better.
Corn from the eastern North Carolina corn belt- The crop
down there this year was a great success, and of the highest qual
ity.
Another feed material from thfe Coast region is a large supply
of Soja Bean Hay for cattle. Grown in that Mattamuskeet terri
tory, one of the curiously fertile sections of the United States,
abundantly watered that crops may grow, and productive to the
limit. Soja Bean hay makes great feed for cattle.
Poultry feed in various materials. And not forgetting the
dogs. We have dog feed in plenty.
Still some grass seed for the last planting and to touch up the
bare spots, and fertilizer to hurry it along before cold weather.
