much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and flneness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality CT the goods. This trouble

f1ance Starch, as 1t can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength than other makes.
