NEXT MEETING

Owners of Maine spool mills, spool
bar mills and birch woods are interest
cd in the announcement that a ser
viceable spool has been made from
spruce pulp. For a number of years
1.-THE American Thread Company has
been spending 4 lot of money in the
effort to produce Il spool from pulp
which would stand the heavy pressure
of the winding machine. Up to very
recently they have failed in each at
tempt, but now it is said that such a
spool has been produced.
Unlike other paper spools, which are
made from wet paper, this one is made
from dry paper and is pressed into
shape by hydraulic pressure Of 5000
pounds. As to the paper used any kind
will do, but the makers intend to use
old newspapers, because they are
cheaper than other waste paper. In
the process of manufacturing the
spools the old papers are run through
a shredding machine that grinds and
tears the paper up SO that it looks very
much like lint or a fine fuZZ. 1t is then
taken N a perfectly dry state and with
u GlutinouS sizing placed in Il mould
and subjected to Il great hydraulic pres
sure. The spool when made consists
OF two pieces which are glued together.
One feature of the spool is that no
moisture of any kind is used in the
process, and when it comes from the
press it is rs smooth as glass. The
wooden spool, manufactured by the
American Thread Company, instead of
becoming smooth, is rough ard has to
be polished.
The puzz, or powdered paper. from
which the spool is made is gray before
| is is pressed, but after the process the
i spool is the color of rawhide leather
and looks very much like Il wooden
spool that has been vanished. The
saving in this spool over the wooden
one, is in the cost of the manufacture.
4 1T weighs as much as the wooden one
ard thereby saves nothing on the
freight bills. But the cost of manu-
featuring is less than half that of the
wooden spools. The spools made are
large, ones, on which 4 large amount of
thread is wound. They have not been
made yet in the shape of small ones for
Retail trade.
t:8FLand Agent Ring was asked what Of
feet this new spool would have upon
the ebirch industry Of Maine and he
said that, if the new product of pulp
lcame.into general use, it would have a
depressing tendency upon the business.
But he further said that new uses were
being found to which birch could be
tput and there WAS little need to fear
THAT the business would be ruined It
Knight suffer Il depression for short
time. but it would rise very quickly.
Mr.. Ring said that he was not in the
least surprised ut the announcement
of the pulp spool. for there were many
such articles which. he believed. would
BE- eventually made from that product
of the spruce woods
