PAPER CLOTHES.
Lumber Waste. Considered of Little
Value, Used in Making Silks.

Value, Used In Making Silks.
Popular Science Monthly: Since the
establishment of the forest service we
have learned host of things about
lumber. but more interesting to the lay
reader are the results of experiments
with lumber waste Who, in the last
generation, would have dreamed that
some day we would be making artifi-
cial silks from sawdust? Yet that is
exactly what is being done. other fab
rics are successfully being woven.
That all our clothing may eventually
be made from wood pulp paper fabrics,
and be both durable and inexpensive, is
not beyond present possibility.
Lumber waste that was once consid-
cred worthless is now mixed with small
per, sometimes mixed with cotton or
woolen fleece, and then spun into silk
neckties and silk" socks. Nor are
these the only commodities that are be-
ing so made with success. 1t is al
ready "A matter OF economy TO manufac-
ture articles from spun paper, which
range in diversity from furniture and
rugs to suitcases and flour bags.
Equally interesting is the manner in
which the paper is spun into twine and
| into thread. In a process for making
twine the paper is first cut into long
strips and about one inch wide. These
strips are then passed through "A machine
which corrugates them in the direction
of their lengths These are then twisted
by hand into the shape of twine. The
twne is finally reduced to the proper
diameter by feeding it into other ma
! chimes which wind the thread up very
! tightly A process of this kind is used
| for making the larger size twines and
ropes, and for heavy cables for towing
ships
For making the thread that is used
in clothing another preliminary process
must be used. In this a wide sheet OF
moistened wood pulp is fed into a com
preston roller under another sheet OF
either cotton or woolen fleece of tn,
same width. Both sheets are quite soft
so that after they have been forced
through the heavy rollers they will come
out with their fibers interengaged anC
| In the form of one solid web. The du
plex web so formed is then placed II
a cutting machine and divided int
long. narrow strips. These may then bC
hand twisted and spun in a manner sim
liar to that used in making the finel
twines described above.
Thus paper mattings are taking thu
place of burlap wall papers they are
serving as backing for linoleums an,
oucloths, and they are being used ID
great quantities I'm the making of fancy
paper novelties And these facts be
come AN the more amazing when w
consider that the entire spun pape

By far the most astonishing progress
however has been made in the subsu

Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1917-08-10
BY WILLIAM A. RADFORD.

The progressive farmer Is careful Of
the appearance of his farm. Whether
this is because of the fact that he
knows 1t has an effect on the sale value
Of the farm, because Of his personal
pride or because of the influence of i'm
proved farming methods and SANTA
ton, makes little difference. 1t is suf-
ficient that this tendency is in force.
Naturally the appearance of the build
lngs will determine very largely the ap-
,pearance of the farm.
Some Of the best farms are built &C.
cording to definite plan which prede-
termines just where each building is to
be placed, the type of building which it
is to be and the style of all
Of the buildings is made to con-
form to "a selected standard. The
scheme may even be carried to
conformity between building ma
terials used. The most noticeable man
ner in which farm buildings may be de-
signed to follow selected style Is in
the shape of the roof. The roof of a
barn constitutes large proportion of
the total external surface and its shape
will, therefore, have decided effect
upon the appearance.
There are three principal types of
roof which are used on farm buildings
These are the pitched or gable roof, the
gambrel roof and the gothic roof. In

When the Feet Are Tired.

Those who are obliged to stand
while at work during the day will find
that the heavy, fatigued feeling in the
feet will be relieved by bathing the
feet night and morning with spirits Of
camphor, after first having washed the
feet with cold water and soap. Dur
ing the hot weather the feet will not
tire and "feel like lead" if ones stock
ings and shoes be changed every day.
The entire weight of the body rests
upon the feet, and the feet become
groOved, feel sore and ache unless they
are cared for and provision made to
change the pressure. This can be ac-
complished by merely changing the
stockings and shoes, If one has no OPP
portunity to wash the feet during the
daytime.
If the feet are moist and inclined to
sweat, talcum powder or chalk busted
into the soles of the stockings will give
much comfort while one Is obliged to
be on his feet.

Homemade Litter Carrier.

inches. A little retaining or trip lever
was also fastened to the frame and
engages in suitable slot in the end
of the carrier body. This lever is
shown in the sketch, and 1t is to keep
the carrier body in place when loading,
and to release the body so that it will
swing on the pivots in unloading.
The next thing was to put up the
track. l used round steel cable pur-
chased from the local dealer and fas-
tened this to a post in the barnyard
suitably guyed and anchored. The
other end of the cable 1 ran through
the barn door to the opposite side.
There fastened it to the wall securely
and stretched it tight. Then I hung
the carrier In place and the job was
completed. It works fine and Is about
as good as a more expensive one.

Criuin of Potato Buus,

Potatoes blazed the way to the bugs,
which have proven our great and de-
structive pests. Potato bugs were
Colorado beetles and lived contentedly
on the sand bars Of the plateau land
In that part Of the country. The sand
bars, from botanical standpoint, are
dlstantly related to potatoes and when
civilization brought the potatoes to
the Colorado regions the bugs trans
ferred their attention and affection to
the tenderer and jucier vines. Then
the bugs quite rapidly followed the po-
tato zones toward the east, appearing
In Iowa in Civil war times, crossing
the Mississippi about 1864 and reach
ing New York and the New England
states in the '70s. In the early years
Of its eastward migration the potato
bug was considered as being deadly
poison, but nearer acquaintance with
the pest dispelled this impression.

Ghetto 4 Serious Place.

Americans are accustomed to say
that nothing can be really good that
does not show a sense of humor.' A
person who, no matter what his de-
fects may be, has that irradiating light,
Is saved. and 1t Is that quality
In book which we pick out
with perhaps the greatest approval.
But the serious ghetto is entirely lack
ing In the genial sense of humor,"
says Hutchins Hapgood in the Century.
"The Russian Jews do not know how
to play, either physically or intellec-
tually. There is no play in their art,
their literature, or their life. They
do not understand what Is light and
graceful. Charm of the mere evanes-
cent kind, the charm of the nuance, is
lacking. The spirit and the art Of
the Japanese are the opposite of the
spirit and the art of the ghetto Jew.
The young men Of the ghetto-those Of
the intellectual type-pass their nights
after working hard all day, In serious
conversation in which there is no
lightness or humor, although there
may be, and often is, a sense of the in
congruous or of the ridiculous"

across the studs and rafters 1t is very

strong type of construction.
The gothic roof would be selected by
the farmer who wishes to make his
farm appear distinctive. Buildings
having this type of roof are character
lied by their neat appearance and in
most localities they are out of the or
binary. This matter of appearance, to-
gether with the structural advantages
already mentioned, are sufficient to
recommend such barn to any farmer
who wishes to follow a plan somewhat
different from the usual layout found
on farms throughout the country. 1t is
noticeable that the farms which are
carefully planned usually are the large
ones built practically in their entirety
at one time. This fact is to be regret
ted, since the smaller farmer, If he
cares to do so, may consult with the
builder and building material dealer
and plan his farm in just as systematic
a manner as that used for the largest
farms. Progressive building material
dealers In farming communities in all
parts of the country are rapidly equip
ping their Offices with all kinds of lit
erature and various other helps which
are at the disposal of the farmers.
Builders who are interested in farm
building construction are studying cata-
logues, textbooks and building jour-
nails so that they will be fitted to offer
useful suggestions to the farmers who
70 70 1xrin h,,i1J IN
subjects. This building service need
not be limited to the farmer who is
planning new farm. 1t is just as use
full in the development of farm which
has been established and is growing
beyond the limits of its present facili-
ties. The advice to farmers-all farm
ers-is, then, to make friends with the
builder and the building material deal
er in the nearby town. He can serve
you and his service may save you
money on your improvements.
Coming back q the gothic roof Barn
shown in the accompanying illustra-
lions, let this structure serve as an IL
lustration of what the appearance of
such structure may be. Clean cut
lines are responsible for the neat APP
pearance. The appearance Of a group
of buildings modelled as this pattern
may easily be imagined.
This barn is 80 feet wide by AZ feet
long and 1t Is arranged as horse barn
with haymow above the stable. A
building designed as COW barn would
be made few feet wider In order that
plenty Of space would be available for
two rows of stalls and three alleyways.
The length of any barn may be varied
to increase or decrease It's capacity,
but the width remains constant Win.
dows are placed rather high In the
