SILK" FROM SAWDUST.

Making artificial silk from snwdust
and other lumber waste is the latest
experiment of the United States for
est products laboratory at Madison,
Wis. The use of artificial silk made
directly from wood is increasing by
leaps and bounds. Originally its
principal use was in the manufacture
of braids and trimmings, but recently
the manufacture of hose from artific-
ial silk has become an industry of
vast Importance. Other uses for arti-
fetal silk are woven goods of all
kinds, Innings, tapestries, ETC., neck
ties, ribbons, sweater coats, etc.
About 100000 pounds of artificial
silk are used annually in the United
States. There are several methods of
manufacture, but that from wood
pulp is usually made by treating the
wood pulp with caustic lye to form
n viscose which is allowed to age
for sometime. 1t is then forced
through dies to form threads, which
are hardened by treatment of sui,
phuric acid, ammonium sulphate and
sodium borate or formic acid. After
washing and drying the silk is ready
for use. The laboratory is inyestigat.

1T WAS A SHAME.

A rough cattle herder having spent
all his life on the vastness of prai-
rie never had experienced any of the
tender emotions man is heir to and
was totally ignorant of any other
rules of conduct than prevailed be-
tween his fellow herdsmenf and their
charges.
When finally the we'll intentioned
but .ntaught person went to town
he promptly fell in love with the first
woman who spoke to him. She was
the buXom waitress of the town
boarding house. He wooed and won
her and in few days they were mar
ried and started together Off the
ranch on horseback.
A week later the rancher appeared
in the city, but his wife did not nc
company him. His face wore weary
and haggard expression MS of sor-
row and he hung his head as he
walked.
To the natural and immediate in
quiries that were made as to the
whereabouts of his bride, he replied
with tears starting to his eyes, and
down his lean, bronzed
cheeks:
"She broke her leg two DAVIS
out, and | had to shoot her. And l
ell you, boys" he added, 81 hated
to do it-she was q good woman!"

GOOD RESULTS FROM PROHIBI-
TION IN WEST VIRGINIA.

A special from Charleston, w. Va,
says: A continued decrease in the
population of the State penitentiary
is shown in the monthly reports of
the warden received by the State
board of control. The total number
of convicts imprisoned there Septem-
Der 80, was LOOP. During the month
of September 80 convicts were releas-
ed from prison Mt expiration of their
sentence. Federal courts are send
ing fewer convicts to Moundsvilles
than formerly and there is reputed
to be less crime in West Virginia
this year than in any former year
during the last decade.
