How Feather.bOne is Made.

A feather-bone factory is a new
Michigan institution. 1t produces an
article that is designed to take the place
of whalebone. As the name indicates,
this new "bone" is made from the com
mon feather or quill Of the chicken,
goose, turkey ct al, the larger ones
only being used-such as are thrown
aside by the feather buster companies.
The process in brief is as follows: The
quill is first stripped of its piumage,
which latter is saved and used for max
ing mattresses, etc, 1t is then run
through small machine consisting of
two rollers, knife splitting it in the
center. Next, the pith is removed by a
small rasp-like wheel. 1t then passes
to a machine consisting of two sets Of
fine circular knives running together,
by which it is slit into small shreds the
length of the quill. These are then
taken to the winder, small funnel
shaped machine with winder attached
"a sort of thread spool at the mouth Of
the funnel-on which the quill shreds
are wound together in a compact roll
sixteenth to an eighth of an inch in
diameter. Thus it is used to produce
the bone. as it is called, three or more
being wound together by similar ma
chime, except that instead of being
singly wound the winding IS doubled by
having two winders running in opposite
directions. These are then stitched
together lengthwise between the cords
by a common sewing machine, making
it very compact and fine Chicago

The late Cardinal De Luca, when

yard and outside one of the gates The
Cardinal agreed, and all of his gemmed

butcher. But they were never heard of
