FACTS ABOUT HOSIERY.
Where the Stockings and soclzs We Wear
Come From.

Come From.
The best hosiery goods are made in
England and France. Fine cashmeres
and wools are imported from England
and fine thread silks from France. Ger
many produces line of hosiery goods
from the cheap to the medium. More of
the articles OF German manufacture are
used in this country than any other
kind. In the United States Isle threads,
cottons, woods, a fair grade of cashmeres
and some very good silks are produced
for homo consumption. In the suburbs
of Philadelphia, and in that city, also,
the making of domestic hosiery always
has been and is to-day very important
industry. New Hampshire is another
stocking-producing State, and the knit
cotton goods of Massachusetts are
known in every section of this country
for their excellence. In Indiana fine
grade of mems woolen socks is made.
The manufacture of the silk goods is
confined to the East, and as matter of
fact the domestic mills are scattered all
over the country. Two years ago
hosiery plant was established in Rhode
Island by number Of Englishmen who
brought tho machinery and the skilled
workmen to this country. There is con-
siderable demand for the American
made silk goods because they are much
cheaper in price than the imported ar
ticle. But the sale of silk goods is limit
ed. This much may be said in favor Of
our stocking industry; our cotton and
woolen goods are improving in quality
every year and it will not be long before
they are fully equal in every respect
to the foreign hosiery. Cottons are
largely worn now. There seems to be a
decreasing demand for woolen goods.
This trade is one of the most important
branches of the dry-goods traffic, because
everybody must cover his or her feet,
even If unable to buy Alexander kids
or sealskin sacques. A cotton stocking
cuts a very unimportant figure in a
financial sense, albeit it is decidedly
comfortable when the air is chilly. 1t
may be an interesting item to know,
says the Chicago Post, that one of the
largest importers of German hosiery in
the world is the loading dry-goods es-
Enlistment of Chicago.
