fibers for paper making. The strength
of any paper depends on the length

compose 1t. Where excessive beat
ing of the paper pulp is practiced, a
paper of very smooth surface and
texture is produced. SmoOthnesS of
surface, however, is obtained at the
sacrifice of strength.
The manufacturing procedure in
currency paper making has been to
subject the paper pulp to continuous
beating for "a hours. Mr. Brown
recommended that tests be made
where the paper pulp was beaten only
18 hours. The result was the produc-

are that this treatment will aid in
making our paper money last longer

times as long when exposed to surface

these conclusions.
