  • Description: IT is safe to state that during no similar period since the first commercial production of wood-pulp in the middle of the last century has our knowledge of the subject advanced so rapidly as during the past three years. A number of entirely different influences have contributed to this activity. In the first place, one of the benefits associated with slump conditions is the time (and in the case of far-seeing concerns, the stimulation) it provides for research work; and secondly, there has been an increasing demand for rags for paper-making, which has resulted in a shortage, and consequently, rising prices in this market. To this may be added the growing use of certain classes of wood-pulp for rayon manufacture, the present position being that this industry now absorbs ten per cent of the world production of wool-pulp; in some quarters there is even a scare of a shortage of pulp for paper-making in the future.
