and promote our foreign export trade
in every possible way, but Mining and
Metallurgy, trade paper, very sensi-
bly, observes that the cexport Of Ameri-
can Soas is the last thing in the way
of foreign trade to be encouraged or
doomed. The supply is not unlimi-
ted, and until new sources of energy
arc discovered, it is vital 20 the in
dustrial welfare of the nation. To
stimulate its exhaustion for export
purposes would be short ghtcd policy
indeed. 1t is not so many years ago
that wood cut from the forests fur
nished an abundant and seemingly
exhaustlcss fuel, especially in the
rural districts. Already hints have
come from the coal regions that the
day is coming when no more coal will

The Atlanta Conxtttufiun says that
not only is the cotton crop short but
the stock in spinncrs, hands is about
exhausted. In England the spinncrs
have only q two weeks supply. ard
the quantity at sea is much smaller
than last year. The spinncrs now see
the folly Of not having stocked up
earlier, but the benefit is likely to
accrue to the planter whose judgment
led him to anticipate this contingen-
cy. The spinncrs of the South have
the advantage Of being ut the source
of supply, and can get their hands on
stray cotton in the warehouses or in
barns on the farm much easier than
those at a distance. Farmers may
now feel assured that cotton cannot
go materially down, while the pros
poets are decidedly upward.

there we had the pleasure of visiting
the Exposition grounds. To say that
we were agreeably surprised as to the
extent of the Exposition but feebly
expresses it. 1t is going to be great
show, and will excel any Exposition
ever held in the South. It is simply
wonderful what the Company has
done with the limited amount OF capt.
tai to back it. Every South Carolin-
ian who visits the Exposition will be
surprised Mt its magnitude and vii! be
proud Of it. Several OF the main
building have bcon completed, and
the work on the other buildings is
progressing rapidly. The Exposition
will open on time, and the general out
look for it's success could not be
brighter. There is no doubt that it
will be of great benefit not only TO
Charleston but to the. entire State.
Our only regret is that Anderson will

A Pig in Sleeps Clothing.

Some interesting experiments with
little pigs have been made recently by
n scientist at Copenhagen, Doctor
HenriQues. He has learned that the
adipOse deposit Is more dense deep
in the body than near the surface, and
has there higher melting-point.
One little pig he brought up in a
barn, and, the season being winter, 1t
was exposed to Arctic conditions, The
second little pig he kept in hot room,
the conditions being to all intents and
purposes tropical. The third little pig
he sewed up in n garment Of sheep.
skin, with the wool-side inside. All Of
them were fed on the same quantity
of corn, and at the end of three months
the three little pigs We're killed.
1t was found that the Arctic pig had
fat of different density and melting
point from the others; the cold had
made its density less, and its melting
point lower than In the case Of the
tropical pig in sleeps clothing. The
difference was very marked, indeed,
and it confirmed Doctor Henriques'
idea that it was all a matter of tenn
perature. Tie fat Of the tropical pig
was about the same as that of the
pig in the sleeps clothing. The moral
to be drawn from these experiments
seems to be that II the farmer wants
pig to acquire hard fat he must
keep the animal where 1t is warm
