CLOTH FOR UNCLE SAM
It Must Bo Pretty Good Stuff to Pass
the Government Tests
The men of the Uuited States army
come uearer knowing to a certainty
what they are buying in the way oZ
cloth than do any other consumers in
the country says Mary Heaton Vorse
in Success Magazine When tlie gov
ernment gives out a million dollar
cloth contract it scorns to it that ic
gets material according to specifica
tion The specific contracts for vari
out sorts of cloth are elaborate and go
Into the technical side of the matter
the number of threads to be used to
the yard the kind of wool to be used
in the manufacture for the United
States soldier has tobe well dressed in
clothes that will stand the strain of
weather and of work On Governors
island New York city there is a test
ing laboratoryVfor cloth A specification
of the weight per linear yard of each
kind of cloth is mentidned Each bolt
of goods is weighed and if it falls
short of the proper weight it Is thrown
out Next the question of wear and
tear is considered and again the speci
fication is stated that each special kind
of cloth will stand a strain of so many
pounds to the inch work way and so
many rfounds to the inch Hing way
So after weighing the next et is to
cut a sample and try in a machine the
strength of the cloth If it wont
stand this test the cloth is thrown out
After the cloth has been pronounced
perfect for weight and strdngth the
dye tests are made It must stand two
acid tests for perspiration and the ma
terial must stand boiling for ten min
utes in a certain soap solution show
ing that it will stand washing with
strong alkalis and finally comes the
weather test the material being ex
posed thirty days on tbo roof without
changing color appreciably If the
cloth has passed its examinations suc
cessfully each yard of each piece of
cloth is inspected being run over ma
chines for the purpose while inspec
tors watch for any imperfections in
the weave An eighth of a yard for
each imperfection is charged to the
manufacturer
So when tbo cloth is finally sent to
the contractor to be made into uni
forms it is known to twvof really cood
material Each spool of thread each
button each lining each filling used
in ho clothes of soldiers has its own
