ARTIFICIAL WOOD
FOR MATCHES.


The amount of pine, and that the
nnest grown, used In the manufac-
ture of matches yearly is enormous
SO great Is the demand that there is
growing scarcity OF the quality and
the price has advanced accordingly. At
the rate pine suitable for matchmak-
ing rs being consumed in few years
there will be but little available In the
United States. One trust has practical
ly all the real match pine bought up
and much of that available in Canada.
In view of the fact that pine for
matches is growing scarcer yearly
makers have begun investigation for a
substitute for pine.
In some foreign countries a wood
suitable for making matches is used,
ESPECIALLY in Norway. The latest sub
stitute is artificial wood made from
straw or dried grass. The process of
manufacture is yet in the experimental
stage, but ii has advanced far enough
to convince Louis Care, a Canadian,
| of its success. As there is an album
dant material. the new timber" for
matches and the process of manufact-
ure show IL much cheaper and less
waste as compared with the cost OF
the methods and material at pres
ent employed.
In the manufacture of artificial wood
resembles somewhat the process in
making cardboard paper I'm some of
its stages. The straw is passed long
itudinally through a pair of crushing
rolls, and then between a pair of cyln-
ldrical cutters which divide the fiat
tened straw into strips. The surface
of the cutters are deeply serratcd and
| are placed on top so that the groove
of one cutter receives the raised ring
OF the other. The straw, supplied with
an adhesive, Is fed To n travelling band,
and is inclosed on top and under
meath with layers OF paper. The lay
Ell of straw and paper is passed
through a pair of FOOLS under pres
sure, and then between a pair of end
less chains, one upper and one lower,
the links of which form metal molds
and are constructed with longitudinal
grooves. the edges of which meet OPP
poste one another. The molds are
heated and are pressed together for a
sufficient time to enable the agglutinant
to harden. After passing between the
chains the straw and paper issue in
the form of a layer of round splints,
which after being cut into the re-
quisite length for matches are dipped
into the ignitlble composition.

Death Of John H. Lewis,
respectfully,
r. L. GILLESPIE,

This entire community was deepIv
grieved on last Saturday morning to
hear that our highly respected towns
man, John H. Lewis, had dropped dead.
the immediate cause of his death being
Citation Of the heart. MIR. Lewis had
been sufferer from organic heart
trouble for some time, and while such a
sudden ending was not unexpected by
those who knew his condition, yet it
came as distinct shock, as Mr.. Lewis
was, up to the time of his death, in ap-
parently better than usual health. On
Friday he performed his usual round of
duties and walked up the street in the
evening. On Saturday morning about
o'clock he complained of pain in his
heart, and said he would take a little
stimulant, which he did, but as he was
leaving the dining room he fell, and be-
fore medical assistance could reach him
he had passed away.
Mr.. Lewis was in his sixty-sixth wear.
and had lived in this town and county
most of his life. He was twice married.
his first wife being Miss Matte Sisk.
who lived but year, and the only child
of this union passed away at fourteen
months of age. He afterwards married
Miss Jennie, daughter of the late Major
Britain, who with two children. w.
Frank, of Fort Mill, S. c., and Miss
Mary, of this place, survive him. four
daughters having preceded him to the
Great Beyond.
MIR. Lewis served as assessor and as
secretary of the district school board
for number of years to the satisfac-
ton of mis- fellow townsmen.
The funeral services were held at the
residence of the deceased on Sunday
afternoon under the auspices of Taze-
well Lodge No. 62, Ancient Free and
Accepted Masons, of which he was
member, conducted by Rev. S. o. Hall
who was assisted by Rev. W. w. Car
son. The interment was at the Peery
burying grounds west of town.
