SilkWOrm Has
Business Rival

lose and acetic acid combine under
, the proper chemical circumstances to
make very good silk. One of the
most favored efficiency devices of the
chemist Is the use Of what Is known
as 'catalyst.' The catalyst is the
efficiency man Of chemistry. In the
case of the cellulose acetate silks, the
pulp or cotton linters and acetic acid
naturally combine very slowly. But
the presence of sulphuric acid or
zinc salt speeds up the reaction to a
great pace. The sulphuric acid or
zinc salt, whichever is used, is the
catalyst. 1t does not become a part
Of the product, but 1t stirs the cellu-
lose and acetic acid to great activity"
Doctor Mitscherling said that the
cellulose acetate, formed after the
catalyst has introduced the neces-
sary punch" into the process, is then
dissolved in acetic acid or some other
solvent, and discharged through a noz-
zle containing exceedingly fine holes
into water and Immediately becomes a
fine thread.
Silk Worm Falls Behind.
There are three other processes Of
making cellulose silk, and last year
they were made to produce per cent
more taffetas, crepe de chine, stock
ings, etc., than all the silkworms In
the world. The total was approx
mately 100000 pounds.
While Doctor Mitscherling said that
cellulose silk will never entirely re-
place genuine silk, the textile mills
are showing less and less patience
with the laziness and Indifference Of
the silkworm, and he had better
watch his steps or he will soon be los
ing a nice lot of his business to SUI
perior American ingenuity and prog
ress.

What to Eat and Why
Making Big Word an Easy Part of Your Diet

Carbohydrates make up about
60 per cent Of the average diet
They produce heat and energy.
They are largely secured from the
grain and vegetable starches.
In the long, slow baking by
which Grape-Nuts is produced
from wheat and matted barley, the
grain starches are partially pre-
digested. They are changed to

PIONEER DEPUTY IS
 VISITOR IN SEWARD

Karl Armstrong, pioneer deputy l.. s. marshal for fourteen years at Ko- diak, who served fourteen years un- der various administrations arrived in Seward last evening on the Starr, and will remain over until the boat leaves April 7th for westward points. MT. Armstrong was former deputy under F. R. Brenneman, and during his term was stationed at Kodiak during the eruption of Mt Katmai, where he ren- dered signal service in rescuing the native and white population who would undoubtedly have been lost in the heavy fall of ashes but for his efficient aid. There are many resi- dents of the westward isle who swear that Karl is the best deputy that ever served in the Third division, and the Gateway has always concurred in their judgment.
 Talking about conditions to the far WtSlWdIu MI. Al SldltS llidt he had very successful year in the fox business, selling many animals for breeding purposes. He is in the bus ness of transferring freight and pas sengers from Kodiak to Kanatak, and has two boats in the service, the Apex H., and the Blazer, recently wrecked on the reef at Kanatak, and purchas- ed by Mir Armstrong from the under writers The Blazer, a twin screw gas boat, is unusually staunch, and is but little damaged from contact with he reef. Her engines will be remov- ed and the hull repaired and used as barge.
 Mir. Armstrong believes that Kama talk has a great future, and will be Dig camp before the end of the year. He states he is agent for the Finnegan lots at Kanatak, which will be sold to prospective locators.
