' r i : C. F. Beyerl,-manager, and J. B. Wilt, sulphite superintendent, hare succeeded in developing a process whereby this wood : may be so employed, a easily, and cheaply, by the sulphite process, as white fir 'and hemlock. As a consequence an almost unlimited quantity of pulp wood which was formerly considered unfit for BUY a Want Ad It PayS Big paper, due to its resinous natnre. is now available to keep the mill1. running Indefinitely after all the other, woods have been exhausted. Coming to' Artificial Silk The Salem fill 'produces the .highest grade papers and bleached sulphite n, this, coast. Bleached sulphite is the, .raw material of artificial siVk.'j and since bemp, jute and plant fibers, of all kin Is are very high in price, the world's fabric makers are turning rapidly to the use of woodj pulp fibers, and the Oregon Pulp and Paper'com pany mill, under the" progressive leadership of its efficient manager, C. F. Beyerl. is alert to keep pace with the times. . .- t Wonders Beln rXorkfHr Wonders are j oelng 'worked. the Salem paper mill of the Ore gon Pulp .and Paper company, j For cord wood from our farms and logs from ohr forests are be ing, taken in at one end of this plant and turned, out at the other end in the form of paper for the markets 1 ' - ; 7 ' , .Beautiful pape,, embossed glassines in a wide range of colors in a white range ofi colors for candy packages and other uses, grease proof papers for butter and bacon wrappers,' wax papers, bond and ledgers papers, and papers for various special uses. . ... This process is going on In the midst of a teeming population; and not one person In a hundred realizes the magic of it all; the have been' carried on to make all this possible. Such a modern pa per mill is a most interesting ex hibit of the accomplishments of present day chemistry and! me chanical ingenuity. An inspection of this institution must prove of interest to any one, and the stu dent could find enough in Us various processes to keep j him busy half -an average life time. . Some New Things 'In the making of the bond and letter and envelope papers of the highest gTades. which Is a new line in this institution, and which gives great promise, a percentge of balm wood or cotton wood is being used.

The new bleaching plant is men tioned elsewhere In his article, and there has been erected also an experimental plant at this mill. Experiments are being' and will be. carried on constantly. When ever there Is any thing new In the manufacturing of high grade spe cialty papers, the Salem paper mill people will "try it once." and If jit is worth adopting they will THIS WEEK'S SLOGAN ' DID YOU KNOW That the Salem paper mill, one of the most up to date paper mills in the world, has made some remarkable advances during the past year; that It has been a highly successful institution from the start; that it has added greatly to the industrial activity and pros perity of Salem and the Salem district; that it has grown "constantly both in capacity and value of output; that it will continue to grow for an indefinite time; that this" is one of the greatest pulp wood centers in the en tire world, ,and there should be more paper mills here, including at least one. for the making of news print, and that paper mills are among the greatest of all manufactr uring concerns for helping the growth and prosperity cf a city and country, bringing new. money constantly from long distances? cutter recently Installed, also a brand new stack of super calen dars for glassine papers, all elec tric driven-. " Another new beater has 'been put in; stone roll; with lava rock from Germany. This la for the grease proof papers. A mill ' making such a wide ranjee of specialties must have a great variety of cutters and fold ers and appliances generally,, r In this . respect, this mill U kept strictly ud to date. Tbe Sulphite Plant The Salem paper mill consists Lof really two plants; the sulphite plant and the paper making plaint. The superintendent of the sul phite mill is J. B. Wilt. It would miracles performed, hourly at t study and experimentation that1 There Is a new 72 Inch Hamlet be impossible to give the general reader the full details of the won derfully lntrlcate'and interesting . processes employed in sulphite rflakj3vi 1 1. would take too much space (whole. books are published on the subject), and 'many of the processes :o aid not. be grasped lthout a thorough knowledge of chemistry such as only' few men in each country possess.

In the ex treme rear of the paper mill plant the reader will see shown the saw dust and fuel warehouses, the acid towers, iho sulphite mill, and, right down at the riv er's bank, the wood rooms and warehouses, where the tmlrj tvnnd i hirVfri chipped and ground ready for the "cooking", process.
