Making billiard Cushions.

TIE making of billiard cushions is an
important industry, but is carried on
by two or three firms alone, and while
the story of the difficulty which has
been overcome in preventing the ball
from sinking into the rubber and thus
destroying the angle desired to be taken
is an interesting one it has been told
before and will not. be repeated now.
In the early days Of the industry the
manufacturer employed valve rubber
and obtained much better price for it
when it was worked up into the cush-
ion.
Then the cushion maker set his wits
to work to get the valve rubber cheap
". but in those days it was strongly
held, and none was allowed to pass to
that industry unless it paid the en-
HANGED royalty. Finally the combina-
ton was broken by firm in Pittsburs
ordering the valve rubber ostensibly for
ordinary use, but shipping it back to
New York for the intended purpose.
SO skiIlfully and patiently was this
done that a great quantity was accumu-
lated, and the valve rubber man threw
up the sponge. Now billiard cushions
are made of nodded rubber. an evoln-
ton which came along later. Hard
ware.
