NAPA CAL, June 10-At the last gen.

this county were George S. Mckenzie, Re-

Floor Covering from Old Footgear.
From shoe and Leather Facts.



A new use has been found. it is said,
for old boots and Shoes This is how they
are treated in the process of conversion into
novel kind of house carpet
The shoes are thrown promiseuously into
an immense tank, into which steam and
dissolving compounds are run, thereby
causing the old shoes to take thick, liquid
form. Certain proportions of tallow, borax
and glue are then introduced, and the
pulp is run into moulds
The moulds are shaped after the plan Of
regular sand mould, and may have the
form of flowers, leaves, figures or geome-
trieal designs. The pulp is runsinto these
moulds and the fgursaslseas in the cold
air. These casts are arranged in the pro-
per figure or designs. when a cementing
process begins. The cement Is a COM
pound made from leather pulp and glue,
and it is run between the figures. The
figures soften little with the compound.
and the whole hardens together.
In the casting of each figure different
eolored pulp is used-red pulp for red
roses, white pulp for white flowers, green
for leaves, and SO on Thus elaborate de-
signs may be carried out Then comes
the pressing by the use of rollers, and pol
ishing with varnish.
The result is nice looking floor cover

miles from the capital and has been fa-

the fanciful style of its houses and yards
aud gardens and streets The people,
though only peasants, are well-to-do, and
all feel pride in their town. Ii seems
to be the first business of their lives to
keep their houses freshly painted, their
gardens in perfect order and their yards
and streets as clean as a parlor, according
70 the Pail Mall Gazette. No carts are
allowed in the streets and no cattle.
Though the raising of stock and the max
ing of butter and cheese are their occupa-
tions. a stranger would never imagine that
there were any cattle in the region unless
he went to the beautiful green meadows at
the back of the houses or the stables out
there, where cows are kept in stalls scrub
bed and washed like Il kitchen. The
streets are too fine and neat for the feet Of
the animals to step on; all are paved with
polished stones, intermingled with bricks
of different colors, and kept SO scrupulous-
