THE Uses oFOLDR AGs.-Woolenrags,
as they come in from the peddlers, COM
prise every variety of fabric that it is
possible to produce from wool, from a
coarse and harsh carpet totae finest and
softest product of the loom. These are
piled up in huge heaps upon the ware
house floor, and women and girls, whose
wages average from four to five dollars
a week, attack them on all sides and
fEortn them into no less than ten grades,
each of which has a special use and an
established value. The greater part of
these are manufactured into "shoddY,"
and, as this is a word concerning which
q general misa~pprehension exists, it may
be well to deVotea paragraphtO it's con-
sideration.
Sh0ddy is, perhaps, the best abused
material in use. So far from being a
mere sham and q poor substitute for
wool, tits, inreality, valuable material,
and enters, iii certain proportions, into
the composition of nearly all cloth. 1T
il not, asis generally supposed, woolen
rags ground Into a powder and worked
into the cloth to give it weight, hutWool
fiber, e0mbed ont of wool fabrics by a
peculiar process, and, mixed with new
wool when the latter lis caFded, isspun
with it, and finally becomes acDmponent
part of tile cloth.
Thus, by mixing h due proportion Of
fine grade of shoddy or wool fiber with
new wool of a coarse grade, substantial
yet soft and handsome fabricean be pro-
duced and sold at a moderate price;
while the same thing, with iIehigh cost
wool IN the place of the much reviled
shoddy, would cost far more and possess
but little more value 30 far as wear and
appearance are concerned.
Cotton and linen rags are sorted with
eQualcare. They are the principal source
of papelmaking material, and are in
constant demand. Used alone, they
make the highest grade of paper, while,
In varying proportions OF paper stock,
they produce the various grades of pa
per to be found in the market. Paper
material may be used over and over
again, provided always that d given
amount oft new rag stock is used, but Ill
deterior1tes in value with each process,
owing to the h4eaking and consequent
shortening Of the fiber; and, beginning,
say I'M the form of writing paperof fne
quality, it passes successiveIy through
the various grades, and eventually is
found IN the shape of ii coarse article,
pOssessingittlesfren gth andsman value
