In an nddresss before one of tho Now York Farmers'Institutes Secretary Woodward had tho following to sny on maintaining fertility of the soil: - ' - wj|| not nave land. It puts Off tho calamity of exhaustion. It sim}>ly equalizes the ratio of exhaustion. It s said 'tillago is manure.' Tillage does not add any manure. It works it out faster. Weeds are better than bare laud. Bummer-fallowing is a very expensive process. I had rather grow weeds and plow tnem unuer. It would bo belter for tho land. Hiiro land loses its ammonia. How rye in Iho corn to conserve the fertility. Nuked earth is a losing earth, llow shall wo make fertility! Wo can do it, by tho purchase of commercial fertilisers; hut this system iH too costly, uulcss for special crops. Another way is by means of stable manure. 'I havo,' Mr. Woodward said, 'banished the word barnyard from my vocabulary. A barnyard is a nuisance. My stable manure paid mo last, winter, by feeding tock, over $1 a load profit over nud above all it cost. I buy cottonseed and linseed meal, middlings and bran, nud my manuro comes from these foods fed to animals. Hy this system tho farm is getting richer all the time.' "?JS'cto York World.

The grower of such perishable articles ?s berries is subject to a nervous strain while the season last, and should, in the nature of things, be better remunera ted than the stolid laborer or the producer of nonpcrishable products. Some fruit growers are so happily situated that they can employ women as pickers, and then there is no need of foreman or tickets, as each picker can keep her own accounts, and pick in separate crates, subiect to inspection at noon ot night. 1 he liouhle wtiti *.uthbasw t* generally a lack of mature judgment, but some are tricky and dishonest. Most every extensive fruit grower is subject to strikes when the picking gets poor, and I have found it best to have a contract with their parents, subject to penalty if broken. This is enforced by withhold ing pay until the close of the season, with forfeiture of a portion if contract is broken. I once visited n large berry growing firm, near Philadelphia, who had erected a cheap two-story barrack of twelve rooms, where were housed their sixty pickers. They cooked for themselves on an old stove in the open air, and the escape from the hot dty to tfca open field* nod profitable employment was rnre picnic to them.?

Wlint Stockinette Cloth Is. Strictly speaking, stockinette is not a 1 cloth, for it is not a woven fabric, but u knitted texture. "By a process of knit- 1 ting, mid not by weaving tbo individual threads of which a stockinette fabric is composed are interlaced into one regular texture. The work is performed iu n 1 \ kind of a frame or loom, in which the yarns arc arranged in parallel order, at ' uniform distances apart, as in ordinajy ' ' weaving. Of course, the machino is 1 automatic in its movement nnd capable of producing a great length of cloth in a very short time. The fabric thus ' formed is ornamented with a fine ribbed pattern, similar in character to that seen in common knit good. This article gene- J rally bundles soft, full and clastic, but ' lacks those valuable characteristics of ' strength and limine** of texture or ^ make, which obtain a woven cloth prop- ' er." ' The difference between the structuro 1 of this fabric ami that resulting from I weaving warp and weft yarns together j may bo illustrated as follows: Take a ' sample of stockinette CIotTT artd rry lo withdjaw a thread, and what is the roHult? The whole construction is unrav- 1 clod. Next sulnnit a loom product to a 1 similar examination and it will be touud ' that if longitudinal or warp threads are removed tin: transverse or weft threads ! will remain, while, on the. other hand, if ' the latter are withdrawn the warp threads ' will, although the texture may be partly destroyed, still remain, to a certain extent, uinlisturb' il. Again, the manner in t whic h a knitted fabric is constructed | 1 limits the designer to one class of wcitvo ' effects?these being of a stockinette char- " acter?whereas tne principles of weaving 1 are of such a deseiiplion as to admit of I unlimited change oi variation iu desigu.
