NEW ARTIFICIAL SILK.
D. Is Made Frcm Wood Pulp, Old Rags
and Vegetable Waste.

and Vegetable Waste.
An interesting new product to be
teen at the Philadelphia museums, 1888
South Fourth street, is artificial silk,
which is made from wood pulp, old
rags, cotton stalks and various other
sorts of vegetable waste. From informa-
ton received from correspondents the
museums are enabled to give descrip
ton of the process of this new fabric.
All vegetable fiber, such as wood, flax,
cotton and jute, may by a process OF di-
gestion-treatmen by acios and alkalies
be reduced to what, in the commerce
of chemistry, is known as cellulose. In
other words, they become more cellular
tissue, the substance secreted by the liv-
ing protoplasm of vegetable cell in Or
der to form its investing membrane CT
cell wall. Cellulose is indeed made from
wood pulp, the debris from cotton, jute
and other spinning industries, etc, for
variety of commercial purposes, and
it is this material which is the basis of
artificial silk,
The process of preparation of this fluid
is purely chemical one. 1t is in the
subsequent treatment of the fluid and it's
conversion INTO textile fber that the
main intert st cenlers, from an industrial
point OF view This process is shown in
operation anon a machine which is
modification CT the ordinary f1ier spin
ming frame Tie fluid, muddy, yell
lowish substance, is contained in glass
JAR from wnioh il is conveyed through
pipes to t, rGT III snlal. bent glass tubes,
each having al extremely fine nozzle
or orifice. Use tCbos are arranged in
hollow trough Ct Water the Orifice be-
ing beneath The v ater level. AS the
fluid leaves ne nozzle the water removes
go per cent Of the solvent, and the fluid
Immediately coagulates and it is drawn
off in remarkably enc flament of
brilliant luster and, whel dry, of great
est tenacity. Half Il dozen such fila
ments are gathered cgether and spun.
The yarn can be span to any thickness
Of count and thread, it is claimed, is
Of even diameter throughout, urbroken,
and it may be produced Of unlimited
length.
The artificial silk will stand washing
and ironing without losing luster or
without any impairment of color.
A company has been formed to man.
ufacture it, with capital of e10S, 600.
Its works are near Manchester, Eng
land. The samples now ON exhi bition at
the Commercial museums show all the
patterns that have as yet been turned
out. 1t is believed that samples of this
fabric are to be seen nowhere else in
this country.
It is being turned out in England for
the South American markets at price
Of 81 pence (l9 cents) per yard, and the
fabric is made of uniform width of
191a inches. 1t seems likely that the
new wood silk will come into general
use for goods in which an attractive ap-
pearanoe is more desired than lasting
