USES SAWDUST TO MAKE
HIGH GRADE WOOD

MADISON, Wis-From shaw
ings and sawdust combined with
suitable binders, there is now being
made new reconstructed wood
material that has many advantages
over ordinary wood, and is the re-
suit of research made by Professor
George Kemmcrer of the chemis-
try department of the University
of Wisconsin. Prof. Kemmerer's
new process has been used COM
mercially since last winter, and has
proved better than wood for GER
tain purposes.
The sawdust is mixed with a
new binding material which Prot.
Kemmerer has discovered and per-
fected, is put into a mold, and then
subjected to pressure OF from 500
to 1000 pounds per square inch.
The resulting product is much
tougher and harder than ordinary
wood, does not split, and is prac-
tically impervious to water. lhls
reconstructed wood takes finishes
such as varnish and enamels, wen.

carefully viewing the negro now in

not the one wanted in this county.
In April. 1919 in eastern Clay a
man named Hub Pitts shot and killed
another negro named Joe Seaferson
Immediately the slayer fled and re-
manned at large despite the energetic
efforts OF Clay officers to apprehend
him. Some days ago negro who said
his name was Hub Pitts completed a

discharged Clay officers seized him.
