There Every Week.

There Every Week.
Those readers who know anything az
all about Dewsbury will be able to call
to mind the fact that the street traffic
consists, to a large extent, of enormous
heavily laden lorries of rags. but prob
ably very few people outside the cloth
ing districts of Yorkshire know what
an important place in trade and COM
MERGE these old rags take, says Pear
sons Weekly. Old rags to be of any
use to Dewsbury must contain GER
tain proportion of wool or consist en-
tirely of it. Hundreds of tons are TAX
Ell into town every week, there to be
knocked down under the auctioneer's
hammer at the regular rag sales which
are held, and then to be converted into
what is known as rag wool or "shod-
dy" When the rags reach Dewsbury
of course all sorts and conditions go
to make up the bulk. The different
varieties have to be sorted out carefully
and placed in different heaps. A sail
or's jersey, for instance is of different
texture to the worn-out evening dress
suit or a soldiers coat, and, consider
ing that the rags-reaoh Dewsbury from
nearly every foreign and colonial port,
it can be easily Understood that the
job of sorting is not an easy one. Sol
diers of all nations have to surrender
their uniforms at stated intervals and
after these have been worn by some
one else until they are absolute rags
they are collected and shipped to this
country eventually finding their way
to the Dewsbury sales. The same
thing applies to carpets, blankets
skirtings, stockings, bed curtains and
the like from all over the world. Woo
rags go direct to the grinder for treat
ment Even the dust is used this be-

Mixed cotton and wooden rags must
have the vegetable fiber destroyed
without in any way injuring the wooler

known as the "carbonizing" process
The raw material is then sold to manu-
facturers in various parts of the world
