The production of Stag wool and the in
dustrial applications of the article appear
to be largely on the increase. By the ac-
ton of strong jets of steam the Stag is
transformed into fibrous, whitish silicate
cotton, which, being mineral, is inoOmbus-
tible, like asbestos; it is advantageously and
extensively used in England in the con-
struction of new houses with mansard roofs,
the space between the interior lath or pan-
elling and the exterior covering of zinc,
slate or tin being filed with this Stag wool,
the effect being to protect from the rigor of
frost in winter and from intense heat in
summer. 1t is also said to prevent freezing
and bursting of taps, spouts and water
pipes if these are covered by the wool IN
time.
