Inc eAlIdCl DrtOW Is conclusive PROOF
of the success Of the manufacture Of pa
per from basSlr0od. We clip it from the
Albany Ereaing Journal Of the 18Th.
actually printed on sample Of the pa
per. The texture is firm, tie sGrl4ce
smootke. but the color is several shades
darker than this upon which the Blade
is printed. 1t has en- orange or crea N
tinge hardly deep enough however TO at.
tract much attention.
There are doubtless other weeds that
viii answer as good or better purpose
than Eastwood. such. for instance, as
white wood lou, forest poplar aud cot
! ton wood.
II strikes Us also, If the discovery is
successful. that it removes the msuufsc.
ture of pa per into the localities Of those
forests where suitable timber abounds, CT
on large streams capable Of foltius it.
