HOMETOWN OF FILL BIIEB
COTTON INDUSTRY IN NORTHERN
STATES CANNOT COMPETE
WITH SOUTH
“The cotton industry in the States
is shot full of holes because of two
things the first of which is because
I the women t.heS’e days must wear
j nothing but silk, and the second is
i because the cotton growers them
selves are erecting plants on or near
t'.ie plantations. This practically
puts out of business the northern
cotton mills and prior to my de
parture for the coast mil’s which had
cost millions to erect were being
j sold for a few t housands’*, thus
j spoke Felix Rouchet, oldtimer from
I'he Interior wastes, and who has just
! returned from his first trip Outside
! in over a quarter of a century, to
^ the Gateway on Sunday.
‘There was a cotton plant either
being dismantled or sold at the rate
of one a week when I was back
there.” Mr. Rouchet continued. “The
northern plants say it is absolutely
impossible for them to compete
against the southern plants.' How
even’, conditions were fairly good in
the New England States, where my
family reside. But things certainly
have changed. When a company se
cures a large order the wheels of the
industry turn day and night until
fhe big order is filled then, if there
are no more orders on band, the
plant shuts down until more business
comes in. In my day one worked
regular hours during the day and
that ended it, but in this day and
age those days arc gone forever/’
“Where we used to buy beef steak
three pounds for 25 cents now it
costs ‘Tom 40 to 80 cents; for a sin
gle pound. And so on down the line.
With few exceptions all the old fam
iliar landmarks in my old home-town
ol Fall River, Mass., have disappear
ed and upon returning I was a
stranger in a strange land.”
Mr. Bouchet has departed for Fair
banks where he will stay awhile
before continuing on down to the
Iditarod. or to Flat, where for many
years past he has been active in a
mining way.
