These sheets of dried pulp are taken to other mills and mixed with cotton pulp or straw, in such proportions as may be required for the purpose intended, — book or newspaper work. See pulp-boilers, Figs. 4008-4013; pulp-dresser, Fig. 4014; pulp-grinder, Figs. 4015-4019. See also wood-grinder. In the manufacture of paper from bamboo, early in the month of June he canes are cut into pieces from 5 to 7 feet long, and placed in a pit which is supplied with water. After soaking for several weeks, the canes are beaten with mallets, in order to remove the thick bark and green skin. The remaining filaments, resembling a fine sort of hemp, are treated with lime and water, raised to a certain temperature. After remaining in this bath for about a week, the filaments are removed, washed with cold water, passed through a lye made of wood-ashes, and then pla

oasis and temple of Ammon, probably from want of camels. Herodotus refers to the carts and wagons of the Scythians (see cart). Aeschylus, in his Prometheus bound, speaks of the Wandering Scyths who dwell In latticed huts high poised on easy wheels. One of their wagons, measured by Rubruquis, had a distance of 20 feet between the wheels: the axle was like the mast of a sloop, and it was hauled by 22 oxen, 11 abreast (Fig. 7002). Marco Polo, who traveled through this country 1275-1295, states that their houses are circular, and are made of wands covered with felts. These are carried along with them whithersoever they go. They also have wagons covered with black felt so efficaciously that no rain can get in. These are drawn by oxen and camels, and the women and children travel in them. They eat all kinds of flesh, including that of horses and dogs and Pharaoh's rats Their drink is mare's milk. Strabo calls the inhabitants of the Don, Maeotis, and Dnieper, Hamaxoeci, or

cubes, and so on. It holds about 8,000 pounds of grapes, and the resulting must joins that which preceded from the beforementioned box to the tanks on the ground-floor The pressing occupies seventy minutes. After settling in the tanks, it goes to the reservoir. It is then pumped into a tank and distributed to the fermenting-vats in the basement. Each of these vats holds 4,000 gallons. In from eight to fifteen days it clears, when the vat is filled with similar wine, and so remains till January. The wine is racked off three times the first year following the vintage, twice the second year, once the third year. It is then potable. For red wine, the must is fermented on the skins. The resulting stems, seeds, and skins are placed in a vat, covered with water, and fermented. The result is a wine from which brandy is distilled. Vinegar and raisins are made on the same estate. See Haraszthy on Grape culture. The wine-press of the Bible was a vat, in which the juice was e
