Mills, located in Fort Worth, which be-
gan manufacturing tire fabrics in De
cember, 1924" Mr.. BIanton said. The
Worth Mills are now the largest mill in
Texas, with total of $4,000 ring spin
dies"
In pointing out the trend of develop
ment and expansion of the textile in
dustry during the period Of 1923-192I,
Mr.. BlantOn said: in 1923 approx
mately 10000 spindles were added 10 the
textile industry in Texas by the COM
pletiOn Of the Planters and Merchants
Mills, Inc, of New Braunfels, which be-
gan operating in August of that year."
During 1924 approximately $4,000
spindles were added by the completion
Of the Dallas Textile Mills with about
10000 spindlcS, and the Worth Mills
with about 1900 spindIes; and, also,
13,400 spindlcs in three mills being built.
located in FL PasO, Houston and Mexia."
THE spindlcage increase during the
period of 1923-1924 represents an addi-
ton of approximately $500 over the
year 1922"
''The total number Of spindles in
Texas textile industries today is approx
imately 231,S54," Mr.. Blanton said,
(which represents an increase for the %
year period, 1890 to 1924, inclusive, of
approximately three hundred seventy-fiye
per cent"
The time is Opportunc for the citi-
zenS of Texas to redouble their efforts
in further development Of the textile in
dustry," Mr.. Blanton said, "and there
are many localities in the state of Texas
today which represent a complement OF
favorable constituents for the location of
cotton mills, such cities as Austin, Amar-
lilo, Abilene, Dallas, FL Paso, Fort
Worth, Houston, San Antonio. Waco and
Wichita Falls should make an especial
effort to secure the location of textile
enterprises, as a number of these respec-;
tive cities are potential textile mill CEN
ters."
"As the state of Texas develops into a
great textile manufacturing region, sub
sidary industries that cater to the supply
and needs of textile mills will be estab-
lishrd." Mr.. Blanton declared.

UNIVERSAL joint
IS QUEER DEVICE

The universal joint is a peculiar
mechanism that is an essential part
Of the motor car, but whose use for
transmitting power mechanically
around an angle has been traced back
to a 18th century architect, writes c..
W. Spicer, of Philadelphia, in the No
vember issue Of the Journal of the
Society of AutomOtive Engineers.
It's popularity lies in the fact that
as the angle between the two shafts
that it unites increases beyond a few
degrees the joint imparts to the
driven shaft a non-uniform rotating
speed, and this becomes very erratic
as the angle approaches 80 degrees
or a right angle. The driven shaft
then suddenly jumps ahead of the
driving shaft for about half a revolu-
Eion and then stands almost still wait
ing for the driven shaft to catch up,
after which it makes another jump.
In motor cars it is seldom neces-
sary to s universal joints at great
angles, and by using d pair of joints
and an intermediate shaft, the erratic
action Of one joint is made to COM
pensate that of the other so that the
shafts rotate at nearly uniform
speed.
Much inventive effort has been ex-
pended upon the designing Of salts

Y~EAR-ROUND RABBIT.

Domestic rabbits deserve to be bet
ter known as an article of food, says
the United States department of ag-
riculture. The meat is very delicious,
tasting more like chicken than that
Of wild rabbits, although these are
good, too, in their season. Domestic
rabbits have no special season, but
may be eaten the year around, when
ever those who raise them put them
on the market. Domestic rabbits are
raised in hutches where they have
only limited exercise and where they
can be properly fed. They are clean
~ in habits, and their diet, consisting
chiefly of oats, barley, and alfalfa
hay, makes the meat sweet, tender,
and excellently favored. Housekeep-
ers will do well to acquaint them
selves with the domestic rabbit as an
addition to their tables. The gamy
flavor of wild rabbits is liked by
many persons, but to others it is not
so acceptable, and consequently the
domestic rabbit is scarcely known by
these people.
