EXPERTS FIND NEW
PAPER PULP SOURCE
Department Of Agriculture Sug-
gests Zacaton Grass, Which
Grows Profusely.

a new source Of paper pulp to MI out
the depleted wo6d pulp supply OF the
United states and the world has been
discovered bv experts Of the Depart
mcnt OF Agriculture.
This product Is the zacaton grass.
which grows In the Southwest and as
far south as the Argentine Andes. It's
most profuse growth Is in the mountain
regions east and west OF Mexico city.
where 1t is harvested for the sake OF
Its roots.
Laboratory tests Of the grass made by
the Department of Agriculture show
that 1t can be chemically reduced to
paper stock by the soda process more
easily and with less expense than is
necessary to reduce poplar wood. The
paper manufactured from the zacaton
stock has proved as satisfactory In
physical tests as a first grade. machine
finished printing paper.
No estimate Of the cost OF manufac-
ture Is made. A rapid increase. how.
ever in the demand for paper and the
increasing likelihood that the raw ma.
terial that Ia necessary for It's manufac-
ture will not be sufficient to meet this
demand makes the subject worthy OF
further investigation by the trade. II Is
