TRAVERSTON “0.9% difficult tr; artific Ial wools ’. Eng. said to April 14th. The rapid increase in the use of shoddy in the United Stones is shown by the following figureu:â€"-Iu 1860 thirty esmbliuhmems had an annual output of a value of 8400.000. In 1890 the census showed ninety-four establishments and a product valued at $9.208,0ll. ery by accident of the fact that a most reputable (?) and well known manufacturer, who had a contract to supply the Government witl :30.th army biankete, was found to be swif- in: the same with shoddy to the us- tent of 5070. Cotton is also intro. and in some cages. exceeds even 5070 of the material use ...... uuuu. Luau-HOPE DUI for this shoddy there would have been used 222 million more pcuuds of wool. hon-m .-__J .\_\\ I thoroue’hly agree with this de- duction, and also in his statement that the adulterated cloth has neither the wear or the warmth of honest woollen goods. Mr Wallace contin- ues by stating that an expert witness before the Ways and Means Commit- tee of the Fifty~fourth Congress, testified that the firsc-class large wormed mills of the United States had put in the French and German process by which short wool fibres could be used. This is a fact which speaks for itself. Quoted further from the same source, and English correspondent of an American paper writes :-“ I give designs and particâ€" ulars for two most excellent claths. The worsted panting will make a cloth particularly adapted to the lAmerican taste, and it can be made very well "on acotton-backed cloth and mungo filling.” Again a tiade journal in a technical article says :â€" ”The proper finishing of low-grade face goods requires great skill and care, as generally such goods contain a large percentage of 00tton in both warp and filling, the amount of wool being only sufficient to form a face to cover the cotton, and it is seldom of the best quality. ‘ 1 Quoting Mr. Mulhaser, the greatest ‘ manufacturers of shoddies in the United b’tates. Mr. Wallace gives the annual consumption of shoddy in the I United States at 40 million pounds I displacing 120 million pounds of wool, I The NatiOual Liv e Stuck Association proporniou of cotton is 3 ; and, when in addition to this cott-‘gu, the stufi' which masimerades under a score of aliases. such as shoddy, mungO. wastes. flocks. loon flyings. wool extracts. noils. wool stock. manufac- tured wool jute yarn. c., c., the wonder is not that the sales of wool fall 05 so largely. but that any wool is used at. all. ’ Shun Horn Bulls For Sale I11 the Yorkshire Post’s annual tr: de review of December 7th, 1901.: a 54in. cloth is spoken of which sells at Is. 111. per yd. . which is composed of all sho My. but is classed as wool- [ len goods. ‘ l The Hon.

Speaking of military and police clothes’, "strength being the test.” there is little room for mungo or shoddy. and even the tender wool causen by the Australian drough is not admissible.
