First American Paper Makino.


The first attempt to manufacture
paper in the United States was made
In 1890 by William Rittenhouse and
William Bradford, who established a
paper mill at Roxborough, near Phila.
delphia. The paper was made wholly
OF linen rags. In 17f0 William de Wers
erected a second mill in Germantown,
and third, which was erected in 1714
on the Chester creek, furnished Ben.
jamin Franklin with paper. BY 1910
the number OF paper mills in the Uni.
ted States was estimated at 1856, near.
ly every state possessing one or
more. In 1890 there were nearly 700 OF
these mills, manufacturing printing,
writing and wrapping paper, with a
capital Of $97,o00,O00. The manufac.
ture Of straw pulp for paper manufac
turing was introduced in 1864. and of
wood pulp in 1857. The census Of 1000

Last year Louisiana for the

corn producing state; we have

conjunction of climate and soil
