It will be of Interest to the readers
of The Alliance Herald to know
something about the uses to which
waste paper and rats are put in the
manufacture of paper. This Is a mat
ter that is receiving considerable at
tention at the present time In the
United States and Canada, due to the
ncarclty of raw materials.
Foreign governments realizing the
scarcity of paper-making material,
have forbidden its export to other
countries. Imports of rags .nl old
papers have decrease 5 to such an ex
tent that there has recently been al
most a famine of paper-making raw
material. This condition is wide
spread in Its effect, and the demand
for raw merial being greater than the
supply, prices have advanced. The
effect of this increase in cost of all
paper-making raw materials has been
' make a corresponding increase in
the cost of all kinds and grades of
paper.
All grades of rags and old pa pern
should be saved. The highest grades
will go into the highest grades of
paper, while even the lowest grades
of this material can be made into
box board. The product known as
box board is an excellent substitute
for wood used in the manufacture of
boxes, and when made into shipping
containers it is fully as strong and
very much lighter than the wood
Which it replaces. The saving of this
material produces a new superfior
product and at the same time con
serves the forests.
Wluii to Save
('lean white cotton or linen rags
and clean unbleached cotton and
linen rags are always in demand,
Mcraps and small pieces being just as
suitable as larger pieces. The finest
trades of paper are made from such
material and the demand is always
steady.
Soiled white rags, both new and
used, enter into the composition of
a very large variety of high-grade
white and colored paper.
Old cotton rags containing colors
which are bleachable and which are
known to the mills as thirds and
blues make up the largest amount of
.my Blngle grade of rags used in the
manufacture of high-grade book pa
pers and medium grade writing pa
pers. A limited amount of old can
vas or awnings, etc., may be in
cluded, but should these lattet
trades be obtainable in very large
quantities, It would be well to make
separate bales of them. Practically
any light colored soiled rag may go
into this grade provided, it is free
from rubber and excessive grease,
because the manufacturing process
converas the ordinary soiled rag of
this character into a white mass,
whiter than the original cotton from
which it was made. Any rags too
poor or dark in color to go into the
above grades are used for the man
ufacture of roofing felt.
Woolen rags of all kinds are of
value. The higher grades are re
turned to the woolen mills for man
ufacture and the lower grades are in
demand for manufacture into roof
ing papers, or roofing felts. These
roofing felts after being saturated
with tar, pitch or asphaltum products
are used under cnn rete cellar floors,
building foundations, etc., to make
the building damp proof.
White clippings and shavings from
book papers, ledger papers nnd writ
ing papers are especially valuable
and a steady demand for such mate
rial is always found
White and colored writing papers
are suitable for remanufacture into
many diqerent grades of paper.
Clean wrapping papers of all kinds
an valuble for remantifact ure.
Old books, magazines, periodicals,
account books, etc., ran be remanu
factured Into book papers of excel
lent quality. All material of this
kind that is saved is a direct benetlt
to the forests of the country, as mag
azine and book papers are very large
ly made from wood pulps.
Clean folded newspaper is suitable
for a number of paper products. All
grades of cardboard, straw board, cor
rugated box board, and soiled wrap
ping papers, newspapers, etc.,, :v
suitable and in demand for remanu
facture Into cardboard required to
make containers for packing food
products. The process of remanufac
ture is such that the materiul used
is thoroughly sterilized.
Burlay bagging and manila rope
are also of value In the production of
strong wrapping papers, and the sup
ply of this material is always less
than the demand.
In the collection of waste paper
and rags it is essential that all such
materials be kept dry and in such a
manner that they will not accumu
late additional dirt. Damp papers
and rags are liable to mildew, and
are also a source of Hanger from
spontaneous combustion.
In grading waste materials, sepa
rate rags and old papers. Keep
folded newspapers, books and maga
zines separate from other waste, and
tie them in buudles for convenient
handling. All other waste papers
and rags put into bags or bales.
In every home, office, or store,
there is quite a bit of this waste
material that can be collected, graded
and sold.
The Herald Publishing Company
purchases old waBte jmper, rags, cat
alogs, etc. These are sorted and
baled to be re-shlpped to eastern
points. While the heavy freight rate
eats up most of the money received
for the baled paper, rags, etc., it still
leaves a small margin, allowing the
company to pay twenty cents per
hundred pounds. If you live In Al
liance and have one hundred pounds
or more, phone 340 and The Herald
will call. If you do not live In town,
bring or send in your bundles.

LEXINGTON MAKES A
MIGHTY INCREASE
ntti pan. v ( liangen Its Name anil In
i Ten ne. Ilreitdth of Meld Now
tt.HOO.OOO Concern.
The texington automobile, known
M The Fashion Car." Is fast becom
ing one of Nebraska's most popular
cars and is at the same time making
inroad In the automobile business in
western Nebraska. The Ixird Auto
Company of Lincoln Is the distribu
ting company for this state, while the
Armogast Auto Company of Iiayard
Is handling the distribution for west
ern Nebraska. .1 W True Is looking
after the Lexington interests in this
Immediate vicinity.
The company behind the Lexington
is an eighteen hundred thousand dol
lar concern. A recent reincorpora
tion of the company gave it a greater
capital and placed it In a way to more
clHciently and economically turn out
more and even better "Fashion
Cars" the Lexington. A recent issue
of the Connersville, Indiana, Kve-
ning News in telling of the re-organization
of the company manufac
turing the Iexington, says:
Articles of incorporation for The
Lexington Motor Company were filed
In Indianapolis today. The action
rings in a greater era for the already
great local concern, which, until
now, has borne the name of The
Iexington-Howard Company. The
new concern, springing out of the
old one. is capitalized at a million
and eight hundred thousand dollars.
Of this twelve hundred thousand Is
preferred stock and six hundred
thousand common stock. All the
common stock and a great deal of
the preferred was subscribed some
time ago. Of the preferred stock u
portion will be held, for sale at fu
ture times. If that becomes expedient.
None will be offered for sale Just
now.
The doing of this great thing by
the local company really la a natural,
though It is a picturesque and com
manding step. The company has en-
Joyed a very remarkable and constant
growth. Its trade already almost en
compasses the whole world. It has
been building annex after annex and
is still without as much room as It
ought to have. The day when It
must build still larger is not far off.
These changes made the increase of
capitalization a necessary, accom
panying change, and it Is made, and
very satisfactorily made.
The transaction entails so much
that It cannot all, nor the half of It,
be given In any coherent form today.
More of the details of the change
and its meaning will appear tomor
row. It Is proper to remark, however,
that the broad vision of the late K
W. Ansted. who saw deeper Into the
future than most men can see, and
the great talent for organisation
which F. B. Ansted. the new presi
dent of the company, has displayed,
have united and reached their flow
ering In this very step The manage
men of the company has been really
splendid and Its growth Is the proof
of the saying.
The Levi nut n Motor Company,
greater in all respects than Its par
ent and predecessor. Is not limited
merely to the building of motor cars.
Under Its charter It may build aero
planes, hydroplanes, motor boats, or
any mechanism which Is power
driven. In brief, the new charter
throws open every gate Into the lin
mense Held of mechanical vehicle
manufactory.
The alien population of New York
state Is estimated at 8,000.000.

A FORMIDABLE portion of that income, you Nebraskans
expend in automobiles and automobile tires.
And the expenditure in tires is the more important because tire service
more quickly and emphatically translates itself into dollars.
Well may you Nebraskans in these days of sane economy study economy
in tires, and learn by actual use the economy of Goodrich Tires.
