Bossys Milk Now Provides Clothing for Americans
As Scientists Transtc;M Cosein Into Textile Fibre

AFTER years Of experimental
"A ton, National Dairy Products
Corporation has succeeded in pro.
ducing a textile fibre made from
milk.
After being subjected to ex-
haustive tests, including resili-
ency, tensile strength, abrasion,
odor, affinity to dyes and ability
to Withstand dry cleaning and
washing, the new fibre-"Aralac"
has been accepted in the textile
industry. BY next Spring, Ameri-
cans will be wearing dresses,
blouses, Stacks and other apparel
which can be traced back to the
cow-just as today they wear felt
hats Of milk origin.
The fibre, made from casein, a
by-product Of skim milk, can be
blended with wool, mohair, cot
ton, rayon or fur in varying pro-
portions.
Used in Hair Waving
The latest use developed for the
new fibre is in hair-waving. AS a
result of recent successful expert
ments, specially prepared cara
lac Wavecrepe" fibre braid will
be used to protect the hair in the
permanent waving process.
The fibre is made at Taftville,
Conn.,, by Aralac, Inc. Present
production capacity is about
100000 pounds a year-the re-
coverable caSein content of about
100, 100000 pounds of skim milk.
Much of the credit for "Aralac"
goes to Francis Clark Atwood, a
noted chemist and president of
Atlantic Research Associates,
Newtonville, Mass, a research di-
vision of National Dairy. Mr.. At
wood spent years of research on
casein fibre before experimental
manufacture was commenced in
a pilot plant at Bristol, R. I.
Aids Hat Manufacturers
The felt hat industry was the
first to use "Aralac." In 1910,
many felt hats contained the milk
derived fibre; today most fur-felt
and wool-felt hats in the United
States, Canada and South Amer
lea are made in part from cows
milk.
''It may seem somewhat incon.
gruous for milk man to get into
fibre manufacturing" commented
Thomas H. McInnerney, chairman
of the board of National Dairy,
"but in this case it is a natural
development and supplement to
our business.
'For many years our research
laboratories have been expert
menting with new milk products,
particularly with view to find
ing more uses for skim milk. Sue
cess of these efforts is vitality i'm
portant to dairy farmers. 'Aralac'
is only one-though perhaps the
most spectacular-of the results
we have achieved"

Geraniums, iris, chrysanthe-

In the same garden are lemon,

Mrs. Ransome took us to lunch
in Mexican Olvera Street-she
chats with her Mexican servants
f1uently so we were thrilled to
have our luncheon ordered in Span
ish. We had tamales, arroz, frijoles,
tortillas and piya-we still are not
sure which was which, it was good
but hot.
We spent an afternoon together
in the famous Huntington Library,
where Marjorie was thrilled when
she was able to point out "Blue

which are there.
And who do you think showed

MONTGOMERY SIDELIGHTS
By ELSIE WHITE HAINES-

We have been just one big ex-
clamation point ever since We ar
rived in Long Beach over a week
ago, and had our first glimpse OF
the ocean-the Pacific is bluer than
the Atlantic or perhaps it just
seems so because the sky is SO blue
here in sunny California.
We have had nothing but sun
shine since we arrived, so perhaps
the tales We heard back East about
the rain was just Florida propa-
ganda, as Californians claim.
Just imagine US dropping down
from the high Sierra Nevada
mountains, thru snow and ice, in a
wooden dress and fur coat, into "a
temperature of 90 degrees in Long
Beach, where everyone was attired
in summer clothes!
Everywhere we have gone in
California we have had some one
from Montgomery County to show
us the interesting spots and make
us feel at home. We spent five
days in Long Beach with Miss
Elizabeth Mock, her sister, Mrs.
Hilda Anderson and neice, Miss
Dorothy Anderson.
"Aunt Hilda" and Dot are for
mer Washingtonians, well known
in Montgomery County thru their
visits with DR.. and Mrs. John Lau-
ritzen in Chevy Chase, and Mr..
Mrs. Guy Stevenson in Laytons-
vile.
With them We saw the desert
city of Palm Springs; Indio, where
the dates grow; Saguana, the ar
lists colony; Bing Crosby's race
track at Del Ray; the mission San
Juan Capistrano, made famous by
its bird flights; San Diego, always
full of sailors; we had a picnic
lunch in Balboa Parls-we drove
down into Mexico and to the race
track at Caliente, where we look
ed over the horses, but did not
stay for the races.
We had dinner at the Knots
Berry Farm, where the Boysen.
berry was developed-everyday we
dined or lunched at some unique
place-Swedish food - Danish -
Indian - Mexican - Chinese we
have tried them all.
We spent two days in Pasadena
as the guest of Mrs. F. L. Ran
some, who has her granddaughter,
