A Novelty in Cotton.

The "American Wool and Cottor
Reporter" has received samples o.
Peruvian cotton, which purports t(
be specimens of that staple grown
in colors. Besides an alleged natur'
al shade of pink, there are various
natural shades of brown cotton
ranging from light "cafe au lait'
to dark reddish brown; it is claim.
ed that there are also two shades OF
slate, Commenting on these sam.
pies the Reporter says;
"The display of the samples in
contrast with the white Peruvian is
indeed novel. IF these shades are a
normal phase of the development
of varieties Of Peruvian cotton this
interesting condition will permit
the manufacture of colored hosiery
and underwear without the aid OF
artificial dyes, and attractive effects
may be obtained without resort to
the help of chemistry; as the appli-
cation Of Peruvian cotton may be
said to be exclusively in the manu-
factue of woolens, it does not conf
pete with the North American sta
pie. No experiment has yet been
successful whose purpose was to
successfully propagate this cotton
shrub elsewhere than in the valleys
Of the Piura and CHRIS, and it is as
serted that these colored varieties
are only indigenous to the Piura
section, and that amy other region
friendly to its growth has been
sought in vain. This Peruvian
shrub, unlike the ordinary cotton
plant, is perennial, and a generation
is considered to extend through the
interval between the cessation and
recurrence of the rainy season, or
about seven years. The first crop
after the rainfall, which terminates
in April, is picked in the following
January, the second in July and
August. The climate of the Peru
Wan cotton belt varying little in
the Septennial period, the flowers
and bolls succeed each other con-
tinually. The present cultivable
area of the shrub which yields the
colored staple, is only about 1900
acres, although there are said to be
several hundred thousand acres sus-
ceptible of improvement by the en-
ployment of adequate means of irri-
CATION, when the requisite enter
prise and capital shall be brought
into this field. The subject is of
interest to users Of Peruvian cotton,
who are informed that the subject
of improving the undeveloped lands
is now under consideration"

French Canadians are said to be

the United States at the rate of 15O
day. These emigrants are nearly
all farmers or habitants from the
st. Lawrence region, and in many
instances they are following
friends and relatives who have al
ready found homes in the United
States. Many of these emigrants
desert their farms absolutely, leav-
ing them without intention of re-
turning, selling them for what
they can get, but leaving them any
way. This desertion is a serious

that protection and starvation are
walking up and down the land
hand in hand; and they cannot ex-
plain how it is possible that such a
thing can be.-Philadelphia Record.

There was indication of tenden-
cy in the Republican ranks to make
political capital out of the Latimel
incident at the State Prison. it is
rather astonishing, therefore, that
the Republicans in the Legislature
have practically refused to make
any special investigation of the
prison management and methods
1t looks very much as though they
were afraid that the investigation
might prove to be a boomerang
and hit them harder than the Dem
ocrats. --Hillsdale Democrat.
