To Make Wool From Rock.

G. c. Hall. chemist u the Union
steel company at Alexandria. Ind.
has discovered a process Of making
fine wool from rock. From n COM
hnatlon of % per cent. Of limestone,
chemicals. and one Of the common
est OF minerals he turns out pure
wool as white ~ the winter snow.
one ~ the largest weaving concerns
in Massachusetts Il making expert
mentH with this new wool. with the
view Of it's adoption In the weaving
OF cloth and under-Earmcnts. While
making experiments with limestone
for this factory Mr.. Han found that
a certain kind. instead OF turning
10 auickiimc. rs natural with ordin-
AIRY limestone when subjected To nrc.
would, when combined with chem
icaIs. turn into lava, and when sub
iected to another process this lava
could he rendered pliable and
handled similar To molten glass.
From this beginning the process was
pushed further. and n downY wool
resulted. the possibilities OF which
seem To be almost unlimited. Hairs
rock wool II just aa soft and white
AZ the wool the sheep produces. ana
can be manufactured cheaper than
the sheep can be raised and clipped.
The new wool Is not affected by fire
or water. The rock from which "
Is manufactured appears like com
mon limestone. and is obtained from
auarrieH In and around Alexandria,
Ind. IT Is the same stone that II
used so much In Chicago for build
inra. The supply seems 10 be al
most unlimited.
