In the manufacture of felts there is awide difterence in density due to the varia-tion in the physical properties of wool andof cotton. Felt is commercially designatedby thickness but it was found to be muchbetter and more logical for purposes of ex-perimentation to use the weight per sq. ft.,as the commercial ratings were not an indexto the density. Cotton alone will not felt so thosepieces referred to as cotton are a mixtureof 50 per cent cotton and 50 per cent FIG. 2.

The china silk had 120 threads per in. in the woof and110 threads per in. in the warp. The finish was smooth and the threadsnot twisted. These two materials furnished examples of filters with aheavy nap and with a smooth surface. Composite Filters.—The composite filters were built up of cotton fiberretained by different materials. 268 Transactions
