the MAKING OF A BILLIARD SAIL

Care end Time Required to rroduce the
white spheres.
1t takes more than u year to make
a billiard ball! Few devotees of the
game probably are aware of the infin-
lite pains that have to be expended
on this important part of the equip
ment that contributes to their enter
tainment.
Billiard balls are made from ele-
plants tusks. and only the small
tusks. from four to six inches In
diameter. will do. for these furnish
the best ivory. The price of this ivory
has greatly increased of late. and the
| demand is far in excess of the supply.
This %stringency in the market has in
| duced a prominent billiard company
to offer $40, 900 for a perfect substitute
for ivory.
The elephants tusks come to the
factories cut up in sections, zach nav.
ing been cut just large enough to
allow of the turning OF a single ball.
Only skilled labor Is employed to
work upon 1t. The exact center Of the
piece must first be discovered by
measurement. 1t is then placed in u
socket, and one-half of the ball is
turned by a sharp-edged steel instru-
ment. The ivory is then hung up in
a net for a time. Later the second
half is turned, and the ball again
hung up as before, in a room where
the temperature is from go to 70 de-
grees.
The ball must be kept thus suspend
ed for about a year. when 1t is rubbed
and polished so as 60 neal a certain
weight as possible, and to a dame
ter of two and three-eighths inches.
Even with the greatest care 1t il i'm
possible to make two balls of exact
ly the same weight.
The life of a billiard ball after 1t is
placed in use is an uncertain quantity.
II the room in which 1t is kept is too
hot the pores Of the ivory may close,
and a crack ensues Then it has to be
returned to the factory. where 1t Is
shaved of and consequently reduced
in size. A second-rate billiard room
gets it next. By and by it develops
another crack, and again goes back to
the factory. where this time it is prob
ably liked up for a Il ball in pool.
When it has reached its last limit OF
usefulness as a ball 1t is bought by
dealers in one and ivory and turned
into buttons.
