waste before hs ever made single shilling by IT,
In the year IL 80 Mr.. Lister had accomplished ala
task he had subjected silk waste TO 80 many IN
tricate and delicate operations that he was able
to manufacture from it velvet fabrics OF gfeaf
beauty. Many machines had to be invented
machines on very gigantic scale-before tho pre-
paratofy processes could be successfully mastered
and when this had been done, there was the velvet
tie invention of Mr. Reixach, Spaniard-g gradually
grew into taugibIo tact, however, and 10 10 con-
Later bought this patent, and engaged the IN
ventors son TO superintend its carrying out.
Mr.. Lister also made extensive arrangements Tor
an estate of hia own he accordingly purchased An
estate Of 900 acres in Assam. It was found how
ever. that the difficulty of obtaining labor in tbay
part Of our Eastern dependency was great that
tho idea Of producina raw silk there had TO be
abandoned. and the estate was TRANSFORMED into
tea plantation and has been used az such ever since
More recently Mr.. Lister has become possessed OF
extensive estates In the Punjab and Dehra Dun,
where tho Assamese worm has been introduced
Italian and Japanese worms are being largely cui-
tivated The Assamese worm, Is may DO men
tinOed, does not feed upon she mulberry tree. oat
upon the castor oil plant and produces i've crops
year. the leaves of the plant remaining fresh all the
year round.
Everything that enters within the rates Of
Manninehan Mills is utilized in some shape or
other o surprising variety Of articles being pro-
duced in all from silk waste. The following may
be enumer ated by way of example: Silk yelvets,
yelyets with silk pile and cotton back. silk car,
pets imitation sealskin plush, velvet ribbons
cleaning-cloths for machinery, bath-t0weis, fooz-
cloths dishcloths and forth. And all these from
the once despsed silk-wastel The consequence has
been that silks have been greatly cheapened, and
that q material which was regarded rs worthless
has como to have value in the market, the price
obtained for silk waste being now very geaIy In
excess Of the original price paid by Mr.. Lister.

Then bears them all away.
