NEW FABRIC FOR THE.. STOCKING INDUSTRY.
The details of a new branch textilo industry-tho, making of laddarloss stockings for women,- which were explained at a moot ing in London a day or two ago, have aroused considerable interest) in the districts of Leicestor and Nottingham, says the Nottingham correspondent of the Manchester Guardian. For some years past manufacturors have been able to reduce the laddering tendency in knitted hosiery, but it is claimed. that a machine, has now been. invented which will eliminate it! altogether. The fabric produced on tris machine,' It is said, his a knotted-stitch, resulting in every stitch in the material being self- contoinod, and in addition the fabric can be cut without fraying of the edges, and in consequence lends itself to all kinds of embro- idory. The fabric, which may be made from silk, artificial silk, cation, or other material; has an open texture, which demands appreciably less raw matorial and possesses great elasticity.

Work is to be put in hand as soon as possible, and the public may expect to find the fabric on the market to- wards the end of spring. Some forty looms are to be erected in Leicester and Nottingham for its manufacture.
The machine is of a simple type, and it will be an easy mat-j ter to instruct operators in its use. Though tho jaumediate use for the fabric is women's stockings, I understand that the material produced can be utilised for many other gurments as well.
Some manufacturers who have inspected samplos of the stockings: Buy they are ladder-proof, and; that the invention will be very beneficial to the artificial silk) trade, as the great drawback to the stockings produced to-day isi that ladders soon appear. Others, however, while agreoing that the fabric, according to sam- ples, is excellent, fear that thej cost of production may be too high. Still the makers themselves, maintin that they can produce! the material at a cost not higher. than that of other knitted fabrics, and they regard the prospects of the industry fas boing distinctly good.
MALAYA'S GOLDEN
FUTURE,
SIR MONTAGUE BARLOW'S IMPRESSIONS..
In the course of an interview with a London newspaper repre- sentative, on his return from Malaya, Sir Montague Barlow ex- prosacd a belief in the future of this country. Apart altogether from: rich mineral deposits, the naturali fertility of the soil, coupled withi regular fall of rain (almost daily! throughout the year and the tropical sun, meant great oppor tunities for growth of commerci al products of all kinds.
At present, the whole energy of local production, Sir Montague said, was centred in the rubber industry; but in Pahang and other parts of British, Malaya there were thousands of fortile деген with good transport facilities awaiting cloaring and cultivation, and with capital and organisation these should yield big supplios of all kinds for tho needs of the world.
or
From the point of view of white settlers, the country had long felt the need of a good hill station, and there was now a satisfactory prospect that in two. three years' time, thanks largely to the energy and foro- sight of Sir George Maxwell, the Chief Secretary, the lofty table land known as Cameron's High- lands would be available as a hill station.
Sir Montague had made the somewhat long and difficult, ox- pedition necessary to visit the. Highlands, which, at an averaga elavation of about 5,000 foot, will bo capable of supplying for British. Malaya very much the amenition that Nuwara Eliya doos for Coylon. Such a hill station will also, in the near futuro, be of very

Changing the cigarette taste of the world
began in the United States-that
Loverwhelming preference for " Turkish
Blend" cigarettes-made of Turkish and American tobaccos blended. And wher- ever the "Turkish Biend" has been intro- duced, men have instantly preferred· it to any single tobacco smoked straight."
For three years a "Turkish Blend," Chesterfield, has been the fastest-growing cigarette, over there in the homeland of tobacco. And because smokers, desires are the same the world over, the same qualities of taste, fragrance, and delicacy of "balance" are steadily winning new friends for Chesterfield over here.
