own busy life. Out there is the great

roasts Muth, whose sausage is as famous
as Goshen cheese, lives there. Speaking
Of sausage, we visited the establishment
Of Louis Orth (the first one we came TOY,
which Is located at the upper end Of the
town, and Is quite an extensive affair.
We found Mr. 0rth q very pleasant gen.
tlemsn, who took pleasure in showing US
over his establishment.
SAUSAGE MAKING
Is done there BY steam machinery.
Nothing like the mangIing process which
characterizes the country or home max
ing process has any existence In this es.
tablishmept
After the meat has been prepared with
scrupulouS care 1t Is put into the machine
or rather under it. The machine is
simply large block standing upon end,
and so guarded as to prevent the meat
from falling of. The cutting machinery
is an arrangement Of heavy cleaver.like,
knives, working up and down with an
irregular motion, just like stamp mill.
Under these knives the sausage meat Is
manipulated until 1t is cut into a fine
pulp. During this process all the season.
ing is added. The stuftlug machine Is
similar in construction to the small affairs
in domestic use, but vastly larger. After
the sausage is stuffed, all that is not de-
signed for immediate use is hung up in
fues and subjected 10 smoke from some
sweet wood, such as hickory.
We were struck with the extreme
cleanliness Of the whole establishment,
and left it with a conviction that sausage
so lar as the fashion Of Its making, is q
safe diet in this latitude.
IMPROVEMENTS.
Several new dwelling houses have
lately been erected, and Shank & Zeigler
have put up large refrigerating estab.
lishment, in which they claim that they
can keep meat perfectly good Tor three
months. They have now got in about
two hundred tons of Cleveland ice.
Messrs Spence & Hanna, of the Fulton
Paper MIL, are putting up new stock
house. These gentlemen have recently
put in large amount OF new machinery,
and though the mill Is shabby looking
concern on the outside, ii is one ol the best
equipped mills in the country.
A NEW ARTICLE.
Messrs Spence i Hanna, in addition to
the regular print paper product Of their
mill, have taken contract for supplying
material to the Vulcanized Fiber Com
pany Of Wilmington, Del. This paper Is
Of much the same character as Vulcanized
India rubber, and Is used for many Of the
same purposes. The process Of manufac.
ture has been 10 use for several years, and
the material has been used for buggy
washers, Lately, it is claimed, such i'm
proVements have been made as to render
the substance q substitute for leather in
the manufacture Of buggy and car.
risge tops, We were shown several
samples Of Japaned work that could
scarcely be detected from leather, being
just as pliable and, SO far as we could
Judge by trial, equally as strong. 1t is
also claimed that 1t is equal TO iron for
gas and water pipe, being impervious-to
either. We examined specimen Of the
pipe and coupling, which seemed as firm
as wood, and the screw threads were as
sharply defined as il Is possible To cut
thread on any substance. Wehave In our
possession what is called by the paper
makers a rubber for tlattening down the
fold in the qulres Of paper.
It is a solid roll which has been turned
in lathe, and the surface Is as smooth
aud hard as ebony when cut with q knife
1t proves as tough as horn. Nothing
will affect the texture oil the material but
steam.
1fthe claims made for this new material
are verified by experimental test, quite a
revolution in many articles Of common
use will be effected. Having seen thus
much that was new to us, as dark drew
on apsce, we left for home.
