Orem Cotton Mill Succeeds Under Local Venture
Stockholders of the South Texas Cotton Mill in Washington county are connected to a local venture led by Tom A. Adame. The plant, built with mainly local capital, employs about 180 workers and runs a large mill with 20, now 10 hour shifts, producing wide sheeting from cotton for eastern markets and the Texan Box Company. The firm claims no middleman, direct farmer cotton input, and strong community support, with renewed operations and a firm business base after past financial troubles.
