EDIsON'S PAPER SUIT

Importation of paper suits from
Germany by the department of COM
merce of the United States, which are
heralded as costing about sixty cents
a suit, brings to mind an even more
economical invention at one time an
nounced by Thomas A. Edison, ac-
cording to ar exchange.
Mr.. Edison several years ago, in an
interview on great inventions, which
he has perfected or was about { o per
feet, went into great detail concern
ing a paper shirt. This shirt, made
of very thin but durable paper. was to
be composed of 365 layers. The high
est degree of sanitation could be pre-
served by its wearer without the ex-
pense of a single laundry bill.
The idea was to make a new shirt
every day by tearing away the layer
which had seen service the day be-
fore.
1t was not reported that Mr.. Edi-
son ever put his garment on the mar
ket, or whether it turned out to be a
failure.

INCREASED DEMAND FOR
NEVADA ALUM DEPOSITS

Puriication of the water supply
OF Buenos Aires, the largest city in
u America, depends on what ac-
ton is taken by a Tonopah company
which has been urged by w. r. Grace
q Co., the great South American ship
ping firm. to set a price for the de-
livery of l 1000 tons of alum, says a
Tonopah correspondent of the Reno
Gazette.
The alum is needed to insure the
health of Buenos Aires and the price
is merely a second consideration.
Tonopah is in position to entertain
such a contract as 1t holds the key to
one of the greatest natural deposits
OF anhydrous alum. The inquiry was
directed to the Western Chemical
Company which is almost ready to
begin turning over its extensive new
plant approaching completion at the
new town of Alum near Silver Peak.
The company is not worrying about
the fact that Buenous Aires is In vital
need of its product as the entire ca
pacity of the plant was contracted for
before the first spadeful of dirt was
turned in laying the foundation.
1t is possible, however, that the
company may conclude to enlarge
the scope of its operations by adding
fresh units to its mill but that is a
matter which will be decided later
and after the mill is found to be run
ming smoothly.
AT current prices the lowest grade
of alum is worth $3.50 a ton while
the highest grade known as chemic-
ally pure brings 1920. The new mill
which represents an investment of
100000 has a capacity of twenty
ions of C: p. alum and twenty tons flo
tation flour sulphus daily. The lat
ter is in great demand for spraying
orchards and sells for $40 to $50 per
ton. On the present capacity 1t will
be seen that the contract offered by
w. X. Grace & Co., would keep the
mill sbusy day and night for over a
year and a half.
The Eastman Photographic Com
pany has already engaged to take
1000 toni a year and the General
Chemicals Company will take every
pound that can be produced now or
at any time in the future. Accord
ing to the United States health ser
vice 80, 00O 600 city residents In the
United States are in imminent dan
ger of becoming disease infected due
to the impossibility of obtaining the
necessary purifying chemicals for
water. Ten States and numerous
city boards have applied to the public
health service to have railroad prior
tiles established for the movement of
alum and chlorine. the chemicals
largely used for Kidding water of dan
gerous disease germs. At n of the
largest chemical manufacturing plants
eight cars of raw material for the
manufacture of alum are being re-
ceived a month, although 100 cars
a month are required by that one
plant alone.
Nevada is the only known place
where alum is found chemically pure.
Andrew C. Lawson, geologist of the
University of California, reported
that the Western Chemical Company
in its eight shafts has 100000 tons
blocked out that will run twenty-five
