COTTON FROM FlRWOOD.
Interesting Process by Which This
New Feat in Mechanics Is
Accomplished.

Cotton. which used TO be born, is now
been freed from bark and knots The
fibers are broken up by special ma
chine, and are then placed In a lead
lined copper cylinder having capacity
Of 100 cubic centimeters. Into this
steam Is introduced for ten hours by
means Of pipe in the bottom AT the
end of that time 60 cubic centimeters Of
soda I've are poured in and boiled for So
hours under a pressure Of three Amos.
pheres The material is then washed
and thoroughly crushed, after which 1t
is bleached and dried The pure cellulose
thus obtained is treated In an autoclare
containing mixture Of zine chloride,
hydrochloric acid ana nitric acid, to
which little castor oil, casene and
glycerine are added The fiber, after
being further reduced Is passed
through a weak solution of carbonate OF
soda. and then between drying rollers
The necessary frmness is given to the
thread by finally putting II in bath Of
dilute ammonia and then washing it
with cold water The substance thus
made may be easily woven and dyed
When the artificial product is compared
with the natural it is said to be difficult
to distinguish the difference. and it is
even asserted that the former may be
so economically produced as to be able
