MONTANA.

Il Bright Star In the Blue Field of the Flag,
San Francisco Post: Montana is now
State in the Union and represented by
bright star in the blue field of the flaa.
Montana is pregnant with possibilities
excelled by none Of the other new states.
She stands at the head of the precious
metal producing states. Her output
last year exceeded e32OOOOOO as against
s&OOO!OOO for Colorado, s12OOOOOO for
California and s12,OCO,COO for Nevada.
Despite this enormous output, the great
new commonwealth of the north has
scarcely been prospected 1t is rich in
coal, and the baser metals are as plenti-
ful as the precious. 1t has immense ao-
ricultural possibilities. the soil being fer
tile and water abundant. Her mountains
and valleys are covered with dense for
ests and her natural water power is be-
yond computation in value. In agricul-
tural and manufacturing industries
Montana rivals Pennsylvania in her pos
sibilities and has her gold. silver, copper
and lead besides. The climate is better
than that of the keystone state the year
round, though some cold waves are en-
countered occasionally in the winter
months. 1t is safe to predict that Mon
tana will grow in population and develop
in manufacturing more rapidly than any
other of the four new states. She has
great natural advantages and pushing,
forceful people who have framed for
themselves and adopted most enlight-
ened constitution upon which they will
build wise and progressive laws. Hail
to Montana!

How Rubber Shoes are Made,

Supplementary to the great shoe
making business is the rubber indus
try, for which Boston is the great
centre in this country. Forty mill
lion dollars worth of rubber shoes
and boots are sold in modern Athens
annually. The raw material comes
from Para, Brazil. in large Jumps.
which the natives make by dipping
sticks in the sap of the caoutchouc
tree and turning them round and
round. with frequent plunges into the
heated rubber, over hot fire. These
Jumps, upon reaching the factory,
are cut out in slices, which are run
through rollers and pressed out thin
and fat like pancakes. The sheets
thus obtained are next put through
other rollers, heated to a high tenn
perature and incidentally amalga-
mated with composition of lamp.
black. sulphur and litharge, which
reduces them to soft and putty.like
consistency. Finally, in this soft
condition. they are passed oyer steel
rollers bigger than they have gone
over before, and actually incorporated
with the tissue of woolen cloth
which is destined to serve as the lin
ing of the eventual boot or shoe. If
you will try to pull apart the lining
and outer coat of rubber sandal you
will obtain a notion of the thorough
ness with which this part of the
manufacture is performed. The rub
ber sheets thus prepared are passed
through last set of rollers. on which
are engraved all the markings and
corrugalions of the sole and upper
that appear in the completed article.
The rubber sheets are now ready tor
the cutter. who turns cut the various
pieces by hand with the aid of knife
and patterns. The parts are then put
together by other wOrkmen with
rubber tape. When this much has
been accomplished the shoe or boot
is lasted in the usual way, and after
being vanished is allowed to remain
for eight hours in a room heated to
the temperature of 235 degrees, The
heat sets the varnish and tempers
the rubber, which is then termed
"vulcanized." The stamping of the
first name on the sole is the conclud-
ing operation, and then the shoe IL
ready.
