TO the artificial leather building
where they are soaked in hot water
and the cellulose recovered. This Is

Ford is also preparing to make
his own cloth and, from present in
dications will, in the near future, be
able to manufacture enough for his
own use. At this time three looms
are turning out 1870 yards daily.
SHOULD Ford obtain possession Of
the nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals,
one operation there will be the mira
ting Of cotton. II this can be accom-
plished, Ford will be weaving his own
cloth, nitrating his own cotton, pre-
pairing his own mixture, and manu-
featuring his own leather substitute.
II is possible that should matters
turn out as expected, hits entire plant
will be transferred TO Muscle Shoals.
At thsi time, sixty-three men are
turning out from $4,000 TO $4,000

Henry Ford Is now reported as
turning out daily 27,00 yards OF
leather substitute for use in the
seats, tops and curtains Of Ford cars
In 1920, we are told by Kennedy H..
Cassidy in an article IN the Michigan
Manufacturer and Financial Record
(Detroit), the Ford Motor Company
built 9iO,000,000 motor cars, neces-
stating the purchase of approxima-
tely 1875, 900 square feet Of rubber
cloth material for tops alone. The
process by which Ford is producing
this great quantity of artificial
leather substitute daily with a work
ing force of 63 men may be well
classed, the writer asserts, among the
wonders of the Ford industry, and Is
one Of the answers to, "How does
Ford do it," He continues:
1.-THE story of this branch Of the
giant industry, its gradual evolution
from a struggling infancy, and the
radical departure from all previous
methods involved, forms an interest
ing chapter in Ford's industrial pro-
gression. Prior to 1919, an engineer
in Ford's employ conducted expert
ments in leather substitute making
for more than two years. In the lat
ter part Of 1918, preparations were
made for actual production. On
January 6, 1919, $40 yards Of sateen
were given the first two coats Of mix
ture, as it is called. Since that time
the growth Of the industry has been
rapid, until the estimated output for
the current year is In excess Of eight
million yards.
"Three grades Of leather substi-
tute are being manufactured. The
raw material is sateen. A twenty
days supply Of cloth is kept on hand.
'sThe roll is first weighed and in
spected. Then 1t is placed on the
unwinder, a special machine equip
ped with a regular Ford brake which
regulates the flow Of the cloth into
the ovens.
From this machine the cloth en-
tiers the ovens Seven feet square
at their base, they extend thirty feet
upward through the roof. Within
each oven are coils Of steam pipes
and a temperature Of 100 degrees
is maintained.
Before the cloth enters the oven
from the unwinder it is given its first
coat Of mixture II is this mixture
which changes the sateen into leather
substitute. The ingredients and the
amount required for a batch are as
follows:
"Nitrated cotton, 400 pounds
blended oil, l,l20 pounds, drop black

Roby. Texas. May Mail arriv-
ed over the Katy 20 North Roby at
eleven Friday morning for the first
time since last Tuesday, due TO wash
outs on that road, one Of which was
near Hamlin. There has been no
mail over the Orient since Tuesday,
and IL is reported that II will take
several days to restore service on
that road.
The rain falling Tuesday after
noon and night was the heaviest re-
corded in this county for years, reg
istering more than five inches IN
places.
A great many farmers had planted
feed and the greater part Of their
cotton but from reports over the
county they will have to plant over
practically all Their cotton and most
Of the feed.
According TO reports from over
she county there were only a few
bridges washed out and they were
smaller ones. No serious damage
done to the larger type Of bridges,
hut the roads are reported In bad
condition in some places.

Henry Ford Is Turning Out Daily
$4,000 Yards Of Leather Substitute
For Use in Curtains Of Ford Cars

1900 pounds; butyl acetate, 80 gal
Ions; ethyl acetate, $50 gallons; ben
zol, $50 gallons.
1.-THE nitrated cotton used Is not
quite as highly nitrated as that used
in the manufacture OF guncotton and
is non-explosive. This is dissolved
into the acctates, thinned with BEN
zol. and the other ingredients added
Blended oil is used to assure flex-
ibility.
at the present time this mixture
is received in barrels, already mix
ed. Ford, however, in the near tut
ure plans TO do his own mixing.
THE mixture flows from the sup
ply tank through pipe directly
above the cloth in a thick, black
stream. II is spread out and the coat
made uniform by the means OF a
knife which scrapes over the cloth
and the excess mixture flows into.
trough and is pumped back TO the
supply tank.
''The prepared cloth passes into
the oven, travels to the top Of II and
down again, and then energies on
the opposite side. By this time the
first coat Of composition has been
baked on. This sateen then receives
a second coat Of mixture and then
TRAVELS into another oven. This
process is repeated into seven ovens.
Coats one and two are not as heavy
as the other five, thus providing a
thorough penetration Of the cloth,
which travels on rollers moving at
a uniform rate Of eighteen yards per
minute.
"After emerging from the ovens,
the cloth is cooled by merely run
ming il up and down in the oven.
From the ovens a roll Of cloth
is carried TO the enclosing press,
which exercises a pressure Of 200
tons and makes seven and half
presses n minute. After the leather
has been grained, a finishing coat
of mixture is applied. When the
coating process is finished the mater
ial is inspected, rolled, packed into
box cars and SHIPPED TO the assembly
building where il is made into seats,
and backs. The yardage Of finished
leather exceeds the original yardage
Of cloth, due 90 a slight stretching
Of the material.
The foregoing details are Of the
manufacture Of a heavy material Tor
seats. In making top and curtain
leather a different grade Of sateen
is used. Only four coats Of mixture
are applied and only four ovens are
necessary. More oil is also used 20
give increased flexibility. Mr. Cas-
sidy proceeds
approximately 1000 pounds Of
nitrated cotton are used every day
The ingredients are mixed in a large
revolving tank having "A capacity Of
$50 gallons. The mixing Of a style

Wheat Condition
OF Texas Reported

Austin. May The State De-
partmont Of Agriculture has made
public report Of the acreage Of prin-
cipal farm crops planted this year
as compared with last year The es-
innate was based on reports from
1855 counties. The report is incom-
plete as some correspondents stated
some crops were not sufficiently ad
vanced 10 give accurate information.
The acreage report follows: corn,
96.s per cent; cotton. 1868; wheat
90; oats SOC; hay 95.i; feed sor-
ghum 1929; syrup sorghum 900;
ribbon cane 1000; field peas 1920;
sweet potatoes 1913; peanuts 9i1;
watermelons 1909; cantaloupcs 100
3; strawberries 1850; tomatoes

More than 400 cars Of tomatoes
were shipped last season and with
the increased acreage this year the
shipment viii be materially increased,
with a probable yield Of 1900 20
500 cars
Some Of the fruit and vegetable
crops grown in different sections 81
the State are not mentioned rs the
report on them were too meaRcr. The
acreage Of peaches is about the same
as last year. but a small yield Is pre-
dicted because Of the March freeze.
The cabbage crop Of the lower Rio
Grande Valley has been harvested
with a yield Of 3,3SO cars rs compar-
ed with l.5O7 ears last year
The acreage Of onions appears
slightly increased but the March
freeze will affect the yield per acre.
However, 2,A17 cars had been ship
ped up 10 April %, compared with
/ ,549 for the same period last year.
The total yield is estimated al be
tween $500 and 1000 cars.
The actual condition Of wheat Is
about So per cent Of last years crop
as the report does not take into con-
sideration wheat which failed 20
come up for lack Of rain, good stand,
etc.
The greatest increase in cotton
acreage is In the extreme southwest
and central west. A slight decrease
Is shown in the eastern and southern
