Consequently astonishment is ex-pressed at the proposal of Koenig to aban-don the process of decoction and to re-turn to the system of scraping, on theground that it produces the desired resultmore rapidly than boiling or looseningthe fibre. Professor Herzberg remarksthat the fibres are, it is true, more quicklyprepared for the object glass, but theyare not pure. The decoction of a smallsample of paper in a test glass, whilebeing shaken, in order to loosen the fibres,does not take much longer than mechani-cal defibration. m ^\^\^m mk°.. m For Index to Advertisements see pages xlvii. and xlviii.
