A MANUFACTURERS IDEA OF
CALICO GOWNS.

There is constant complaint among the
ladies concerning the inferior quality of the
prints that have been manufactured since
the carly part of the war. \ dress made
from them is not really worth the labor of
making up. When cotton was one dollar,
and from that to two dollars pound, there
was some excuse for spinning it out so thin.
What are now called standard print
cloths are seven yards 10 the pound "a
threads to the square inch, in both the warp
and filling. Before the war standard cloth
was six yards to the pound with the same
count of threads TO the square inch-the eX-
tra weight arising from making the thread
coarser, reducing the cost of both spinning
and weaving the pound of cloth, /, G., there
will be onc-scycnth less skcins of yarn to
spin, and with less turns of twist to the
inch, and onc-scvcnth less yards to weave,
with stronger yarn to work and less break
ing in the loom, so the cost of the better
goods cannot anyhow exceed the bare cost of
the cotton TO make the additional weight.
OF course the printing would be the same
per yard. Now n pound of cotton at Is
cents, with allowance for waste, will be not

giving 81 cents per yard for 6 yards and 3
cents for yards to the pound There is Il
difference OF taste rs to what constitutes a
pattern. We will give as much scope rs
Old Finn lid in stating the age of the lady
on the stagc-"lrom 10 to 60, or thereabouts'
At the lower figures the extra cloth would
be 8 cents for dress of really substantial
goods, over the moonshine warp with star
light filling stuff that has been in the market
for the last ten years. At the "big figures"
it would be only 30 cents for garment that
ought TO cover the ambition of the most as
piring. If the ladies would only put on II

firm that they will buy no more moonshine

COMMON SENSE.

There is Il chilly, disagreeable article, call
cd common sense, which is, OF all things,
most repulsive and antipathetical TO all pet
ted creatures whose life has consisted in flat
terry. 1t is the kind of talk which sisters are
very apt to hear from brothers, and daugh-
ters from fathers and mothers, when fathers
and mothers do their duty by them, which
sets the world before them rs it is, and not
rs il is painted by flatterers. Those women
who prefer the society of gentlemen, and
who have the faculty of bewitching their
senses, never are in the way of hearing from
this cold matter-ol-iact region; for them 1t
really does not exist. Every phrase that
meets their ears is polished and soitened
guarded and dclicately turned, till there Is
not a particle OF homcly truth left in IT,

For the VERMONT FARMER.
DAISY VERSUS TIMOTHY.

The excessive wet Of last season gave a
temporary advantage to herds grass in its
struggles against the eneroachments of the
daisy. This summer better stand Of the
former is quite noticeable all over our
upland meadows, while the latter fails to
make quite 50 conspicuous display as in
former years. So, while these facts afford
us additional evidence that Timothy is chiefly
failing under the frequent and trying
drOughts of these latter times, and that the
daisy readily adapting itself to such condi-
tions takes possession of whatever ground
Timothy and the other grasses are not able
to hold, let us not curse this weed overmucb,
and charge to its account entirely the loss Of
the best grass the American farmer has ever
known. AGRICoLA.
