he Household Salvage Brigade would require some thousands of pots to start with and in connection with our food depots we should be able to dispose of thousands more. 2. _The Weavers Brigade_--This would give employment for a large number of skilled hands. Their first object would be to supply the kinds of clothes, blankets, &c., which would be most suitable for the use of the submerged tenth. In catering for their wants we should avoid, however, anything _prisony_, or _workhousey_, or charity-institutiony in appearance. As our numbers increased we should find plenty of work for our weavers, at any rate for many years to come without entering into any sort of competition either with the market or the mills. 3. _The Basket Brigade_--Would supply us with all sorts of cheap baskets, for which we should have a constant demand. 4. _The Mat Making Brigade_--Would find employment for many more hands in supplying us with mats for sleeping and household purposes. 5. _The Fuel Brigade_--Here we have an industry which requires no skill. There would be two branches of it--the woodchoppers and the Oopala makers. For the latter women and children could be largely employed both in the collection of the cow-dung and in the preparation of it for use as fuel. 6. _The Tinners Brigade_--Will be kept busy making receptables and badges for the Salvage Brigade, and also probably emblems for the Labor Bureau. 7. _The Ropemakers Brigade_--Will furnish employment to a number more and the results of their labour will find an ample market in our various colonies. 8. _The Tanners Brigade_--Will supply all our departments with such leather as may be required for various purposes, and among other things will be attached to. 9. _The Shoemakers Brigade_--Who will be employed in patching up the old shoes collected by our Household Salvage Brigade and in making new ones for our consumption. 10. _The Tailors Brigade_--Will supply uniform and clothing of all kinds. For these we have already a very considerable demand, which would increase year by year. 11. _The Carpenters Brigade_--Would have plenty to do in providing seats for our Barracks, office essentials, boxes, and household furniture for our colonies. They would be linked with 12. _The Building Brigade_--For whom we s
