SUMMERVILLE GIN AN
UP-TO-DATE PLANT
During the year, the Summerville
cotton mills have erected a new and
larger gin building, and have now in
stalled 8 gin stands, 4 of 70 saw and
4 of 80 saw, together with all neces
sary equipment.
It is a revelation to one not fami
liar with such outfits, to go through
this building, and note the many
pieces of machinery installed. First,
you will notice the 2 big 75-horse
power electric motors, that drive each
outfit. A push of a button starts these
motors, any hour of the day. No wait
to get up steam. Then the fans, these
are used to unload the cotton from
the wagon and distribute to each gin,
you will also find this fan doing oth
er duties, of blowing the seed through
large pipes to a convenient place for
the loading into wagons—or if sold—
across the street into the large seed
house. Stand in front of the gins,
notice the cotton as it comes from the
wagons, first going into the cleaners
and then automatically distributed to
each gin, the hum of the rapidly mov
ing saws as the cotton is fed into
them, and the seed, clean of cotton,
dropping from the gins into a con
veyor, that takes them to an expen
sive Richardson scale, if sold, if the
farmer does not sell his seed, they do
not pass through the scales, but di
rect to seed bin.
The lint cotton k -'n through
large pipes to a conde. hat folds
the cotton, and delivers O . to the
press. Now watch this auto?hj>. ma
chine it works like a human
gate is raised, it starts revo.
fast, and it stops as quickly, wi.
the cotton is placed in the press. Now
comes the last operation. A sturdy
motor drives the Hydraulic ram, that
comes up slowly but sure and makes
you a nice compact, well shaped bale
of cotton.
The News is glad to see these im
provements, it means much for our
town, it will bring new business that
will be a great help to our business
men. We hope the new venture will
be a success, and that the owners
will have a profitable investment.
We call your attention to their ad
vertisement in this issue, we think the
farmers will find it very interesting
to them.

MILLIONS ROLL IN
FOR NEW RESEARCH
Hoover’s Endowment Already
Has $3,500,000 As Fall
Campaign Start.s
Men of means throughout the land
are responding to the call for funds
with which to carry on a 10-year pro
gram of industrial research in this
country for the benefit of all man
kind. Early this month a total of $3,-
500,000 has been subscribed to the new
national research endowment which
is sponsored by Herbert Hoover, Eli
hu Root, Charles E. Hughes and oth
er nationally known men. The active
campaign to roll up the balance of the
needed $20,000,000 will start soon and
run through the winter months. It is
hoped that the fund will be complete
before spring and that important re
searches can begin then. The start
will be made only after the fund is |
complete, according to the National
Research council.
The work to be done during the
forthcoming 10 years with the huge
fund is to be directed by the most
competent scientists in the country.
It will take place in the laboratories
of colleges and universities, in the re
search buildings of big industries and
in smaller experiment shops wherever
they may be. The advance of many
*s for the ultimate good of the
.ole citizenry of the world, but espe
cially of the United States, is ex
pected.
For years scientific studies along
many lines have been made with con
crete results. Without them the world
would still be burning flimsy and
wasteful carbon electric lamps instead
of the tungsten and gas-filled incan
descents of today. Because of them
radio has reached its present high de
gree of perfection and all sorts of
other new conveniences and comforts
and economies are within reach of
everyone. But the “inventor” with a
promising idea has too often been un
able to work it out because of lack of
financial backing. The world may en
joy the benefits of these ideas before
long through the ministrations of the
twenty million dollars and the endow
ment directors.
