It may be a surprise to many to learn that Columbus, Georgia, is the second greatest cotton manufacturing center in the entire South. Such, however, is the case. In round figures, the following statistical items will make this clear at a glance: Number of Spindles .. 439,500 Number of Looms ....................... 7,850 Number of Bales of Cotton Consumed Yearly ...,.... l35,000 Value of Cotton Consumed Yearly at 25c per lb. ...Sl6,750,000.00 Value of Annual Production ...................... S30,000.000.00 Annual Wages Paid ........... ...... .... S 6 ,500,000.00 Number of Operatives Employed .......... 8,500 Estimated Number of Persons Supported by Textile Pay-Rolls ............................... 25,000 It may also be a surprise to learn that Columbus Mills make heavy shipments of cotton goods into the very heart of New England and to Canada. They also ship large quantities to the Middle West and to the Pacific Coast States, in tact, to every state in the Union. This constant stream of fresh money being drawn into Columbus from the four corners of the earth by the far-flung trade of the Mills is one of the main reasons Why business conditions are, as a general rule, steadier in Columbus, than in almost any other city of this section.
