Hair Nets So Fine Machines
Can’t Make Them
Owing to the fine texture of human
hair and the ahortneaa of the strands,
no machine has been, invented that
can knit delicate hair note, so they
must all be made by hand, says an
eastern manufacturer. More than 95
per cent of the world’! supply of this
article la produced in the native homes
of northern China, from where the hair
is first shipped to the United States
to be dyed end made, sanitary by
chemical process. It is then returned
for knitting into nate. The strands are
tied end to end to form one long
string. This is wound on a shuttle
which is worked round a bamboo stick
or bodkin. Tho knots ate fastened
similar to those in Cab nets and ham
mocks, and require aldll created by
yesre of practice. One net an hour is
considered to be a good average for
the ordinary worker.

Dr. Soule pointed out that should
the tariff be removed on vegetable

by foreign concerns to bring In
ferior grades of oil into this country
and on account of the low cost of
labor in Japan China *and other
countries the farmers of the Sbuth
