Woolen Trade Making Progress

Business Costs Need
More ErpIanatiOn,Vie'r

Ignorance OF the reasons FOR the
wide spread between the cost Of raw
materials and the finished product.
according to John Slater, Of J. & j.
Slater. shoe retailers, is one OF the
influences retarding retail business
at present.
"The ultimate consumcr.' said
Mr. Slater, "has been apprised Of
the fact, through the newspapers,
that the prices Of raw materials
have fallen greatly. Too little has
been said about the other costs OF
manufacturing and distributing
merchandise, and til. consumer
knows little about them. More ex-
planation regarding the present
labor costs, rents Of business prop
critics, overhead and other factors
that go to make up the cost Of mer-
chandisc is necessary to convince
the consumer that present prices on
the goods he buys are justified"

done by a process called etching.
Glass essentially Is q mixture of sill
Gates of calcium and sodium, with an
excess of silica A common example
of silica is ordinary sand. Technically
II Is known as silicon dioxide. Fluor-
Inc unites with silicon forming gas
called silicon tetrafluoride. Fluor-
inc for the purpose is obtained thru
Hydrofluoric acid, which decomposes
glass rapidly.
This is the process: The piece of
glass to be etched is covered with
paraffin or was of some sort Then
the markings are cut thru the cover
ing with a sharp pointed instrument
The article is then exposed to either
liquid or gaseous hydrofluoric acid.
The gas silicon tetrafluoride passes
off from the reaction. This gas is
very poisonous, so that the process has
to be carried on in a chamber with a
draft called a hood. The calcium
f1uoride and the sodium fluoride
which are formed where the glass is
uncovered. are fine powders, and fall
ing away leave rough surfaces. These
are the marks on your measuring cup
and the graduations on your ther-
mometer. The wax is removed, and
the article is finished
Hydrofluoric acid is generally made
by pouring sulphuric acid on calcium
fluoride. The heat caused by the re-
action of these two substances Is SUI
ficient TO vaporize the hydrofluoric
acid. The entire process must take
place in a lead vessel or chamber.
because neither the acid nor the vapor
unites with lead.
This is just one of the many ways
IN which scientific theory has had
practical applications A good share
of the modern improvements and con-
veniences have been the result of in
tellectual curiosity in one of the pure
sciences. Some other ingenious per-
son found a practical use for the prin-
ciples thus found. That is the reason
why many commercial institutions
keep research scientists in their en-
