In all kinds of autómatio OF semi-automátis macbinery a great differents in the numerical resulte can be pured by adding 10 or a dowen reyolutions per minute to the main abafi or by a general altera. tion in the sixs of the pulleys. In some cases the cost of speeding, ap the drivs can be recovered in a month or two by the incremes in autpat, and the extra wear and, toar la a melter of trißing import anos. With exactly the same machine in Americs and in |England; producing a similar clan of goods, the output his etindetimes been found to be 10. per cent, larger in the United Slater, with a corresponding reduction in cost. --Times,
