Wool Manufactures.

The period intervening between the
censuses of 1900 and 1905 was an un-
usually prosperous season for the in
dustries which use wool as chief raw
material, namely; Wooden goods;
worsted goods; carpets and rugs other
than rag felt goods; and wool hats.
The 1918 establishments engaged in
wool manufacture In 1906 we're dis
| tributed thus: Wooden goods, 1872;
worsted goods, 226 carpets and rugs,
1879; felt goods, 80; and wool hats, II.
The total capital invested was $780,
s61, 691. There was an increase in ev-
cry industry except wool hat manu-
| facture, where there was a decrease of
1917 per cent. The average number of
wage learners In the several industries
was 1896. Materials used inN the
vol manufacture cost $242, 561, O96.
| The total value Of products, $3.50, 1884,
zoos, is made up of the output Of WOOL
en- mills, $142,196,65S; OF worsted goods
factories, $165, 745,O52; of carpet and rug
factories, $61.5S6, 439 of felt goods fac
tories, SIS, 1894; and Of wool hat fac
tories, $2,457, 1865. The industry last
mentioned shows decrease of 81.6 per
cent, but all the others had gains va
rying from 2O.1 per cent. (woolen
goods) to 1875 per cent (felt goods).
Massachusetts held first rank in the
total value Of products of all branches
land In value of worsted goods and
lwolen goods; Pennsylvania was first in
1.-THE manufacture Of carpets and rugs;
and New York led in the manufacture
of felt goods and wool hats. The cit
les of Philadelphia, Pa, Lawrence
Mass, and Providence, r. l., are still
the leading centers of wool manufac-
lture.
In 1904 the worsted manufacture ex-
lceeded that of wooden goods In capt.
tai, cost of materials, and value of
lproducts An indication Of the
Ichange Of fashion from wooden to
worsted goods is the decrease in wool
en- yarn purchased from 9S,90S,17
pounds in 1900 to IS, 141, 4SS pounds in
ll905, coincident with an increase in
Iworsted yarn from S4,S77, 1876 pounds in
I190O to As, 4o3,705 in 1905. The quantity
of secured wool consumed in the
wooden manufacture was 282,194,61S
pounds and the total quantity OF
Yarns purchased was 2OS,O79, 791
pounds, costing $5s,9046 S7. Cotton
Ieither alone or mixed with wool, has
largely supplanted wool as the mate
trial of great number of fabrics
There are important increases in the
silk yarn used and in the yarn Of jute
ramie, and other vegetable fibers.
The principal machinery was 5,96S
lcards, 1919 eombing machines, 4,O21 ,O9S
Ispindles and 1885 looms.
The aggregate value of products was
$3.50, 934, 003, and the net value, ae-
cording to the census method of elm
mating Implications, was $92I251 1886 as
compared with $255 ,96984S in 1900. The
total quantity of woven wooden cloths
other than carpets and rugs and up.
holstery goods, reported by wool and
lworsted mills and felt and carpet mills
was 295,O57503 square yards; and
worsted goods amounting to H0,956,.

FOR POOR CHILDREN

Yesterday afternoon those 500 children,

were too poor for him to bother with them.
gathered In the big assembly room In Elks
headquarters In Green street, and after lis
tening to a musical program were made as
happy as children can be when Santa
Claus, Respondent in all his holiday attire,
appeared from behind a generously deco
rated tree and began TO distribute gifts of
wearing apparel and other useful things
and fruit and confectionery.
Not one of the half thousand little ones
present were forgotten. Joseph Luby made
an ideal Santa Claus and kept the spirits
Of the children up to the highest pitch by
his jolly mein.
Charles A. Wenisch, past exalted ruler,
made the address to the little guests or
the Elks, in which he assured them that
every Elk was just as happy and more
so than the boys and girls gathered IN
the room for the privilege he had In con-
tributing to the enjoyment and Christmas
remembrance of the little folk. He wanted
them to feel perfectly at home or else
the big elk just inside the main hail
would kick up q rumpus.
1t was the second Christmas distribute
ton of presents by the Newark Elk to
the poor children in Newark The COM
mittee, consisting of Joh Weber. chair
man; Theodore Aab, secretary; Edward
Hodecker, Charles A. Wenisch and Jared

About One Million Below the Record
for 1906, Because Few Very Big

The tendency of many men of today is
toward home colonization on small sub
urban farms. this is now very marked
among business men, lawyers, artists and
professionals in nearly every pursuit.
The professional men is not going In for
farming on a profit basis, but to emulate
the next-to-natLre life of the farmer, be-
cause 1t gives him a much-needed rest. and
moreover his family can spend the whole
summe In comfort at a ridlculously small
expense compared to the hired cottage at
p resort.
1t is the rule rather than the exception
to hear conversations as TO how the re-
naming days shall be spent by the man
who has reached a fairly independent con-
dition terminate in expressions that the
small farm home is the goal sought.
Thus 1t is that a large measure of the
sections is explained by agents.
