GRASS MADE INTO Tw1NE.
New Industry Which Is Proving
Profitable in the Western
States.

The United States produces and ex
ports more grain than any other coun-
try. The economical and timely har-
vesting of the enormous American crop
depends largely upon very ingenious
device, the automatic binder. But
Irvine is as essential as the binder, and
as the materials of which it is made
have had to be imported, both its price
and supply have hitherto been uncer-
tain and governed by conditions beyond
the control of our farmers.
About ten years ago, when Irvine was
very dear, and subject to the control Of
spectators, the attention of those in
terested was turned toward other flbers-
and materials. Jute, New Zealand and
domestic hemp and flax, paper, straw
and, finally, grass, were tried with more
or less success, and especial attention
was given>to the production of binder
Irvine from peculiarly strong wire
grass growing abundantly upon the
marsh and slough lands Of Wisconsin,
Minnesota and other western states. A
process for this utilization of the grass
was invented, and its manufacture has
now developed into an extensive indus
try. The grass, brought to the ware
house in boats or in car loads, is carried
by tramway to the combing rooms,
where the short or refuse fiber or grass
is separated, to be made-afterward into
bottle covers. The long and cleaned
material passes to the spinning rooms,
where long rows of machines evenly
distribute the fibers, spin the Irvine and
cast around it a protecting thread, all
of which is done in continuous opera
ton. From the spinners the Irvine
passes to the winders and is balled for
binders, or for the looms in the weav-
ing department, where it is made up
into mating, rugs, etc.
A strong tension is put on the Irvine
in winding, and if any length of it
should break under the strain, it is re-
jected for binding, and sent on to the
weaving room. The Irvine runs $50 feet
ITO the pound, and is about three-six-
teenths of an inch in diameter. In the
weaving department the rugs, mats,
Innings, bagging. etc., turned out by
the looms are made in all sizes, and in Z
great variety of attractive patterns and
shades.-St. Louis Globe Democrat,

Operations Will he Suspended TIL Rob-
erts Gives the Word.
LONDON, Jan. 3O.-History pauses for
u time in South Africa. It is one of
those unsatisfactory pauses that are
nearly as trying to British nerves as a
sequence of reverses and apparently it
will terminate only when Lord Rob-
erts gives the word for the forward
movement into the Free State, which,
according to the most cheerful view,
he will be unable to do for a fortnight
Whether he will permit General Butler
to make another attempt to relieve
Ladysmith is quite outside the knowl-
edge even of those closely connected
with the war Office. With the troops
due to arrive next month, he may think
himself strong enough to try two large
operations. Combining the forces I'M
der Generals NIethuen, French and
Gatacre and adding to them the arriv-
ing troops, Lord Roberts would have
10000 for the invasion of the Free
State, with 10000 to $4,000 guarding
communications and 100000 trying to
rescue Ladysmith. The public burns
with Impotence that something should
be done, but there is nothing to do but
to wait on the preparations.
