Sorting and Cleaning Wool.

The wool comes into the mill dirty,
greasy. bury, sometimes washed by
the farmer, but generally just as it is
sheared from the sheep, filthy an dun
wholesome thing, giving little sign of
the beautiful, white and fossy sub
stance into which it is soon converted.
1t must first be sorted, each fleece con
tanning from six to eight qualities of
sorts, which the careful manufacturer
separates, devoting each quality to the
purpose for which it is best suited. No
skill in carding, spinning, weaving or
finishing can possibly produce a soft or
fine piece Of goods from a coarse, hard
fiber.
When woolen thread is to be spun to
the length of 1880 yards to pound,
or in the case of worsted thread
to twice that number of yards to the
pound, everything depends upon care
in the selection OF the fleece and in the
sorting. The sorts are impregnated
with greasy substance called the yolk
or suint, caused by the animal secre
tons and the perspiration of the skin,
a compound of potash and animal fat,
which must be completely eradicated.
The elimination of the yolk, dirt and
foreign substances common to all
woods results in shrinkage of from
50 to 20 per cent. S. n d. North in

Water in distinguishing Fire.

The theory of all fire extinguishers Is to
cut off the burning object from the sur,
rounding atmosphere. This can be done
by either liquid or a solid substance, but
water is the simplest and most natural
one. It's efficacy as fire extinguisher
may, however, be increased by an addition
of pulverized alum in sufficient quantity
to give saturated solution. On evaporat
ing this solution will leave on the material
on which it has fallen a thin coating, hav
ing high heat resisting power. Potash
and common salt should not be used, as
the salts will volatilize and afterward pre-
cipitate themselves in various parts of a
room or building, and tend to produce
dampness, from their affinity for moisture
