THE TIM KS, NEW BL00MFIHL1), PA., KOVKMUElt , 1881.
Visit to a Vermont Peg Factory.
Tlie timber used Is black und yellow
bird), which In cut Into pieces four feel lit
length, varying In diameter from eight to
fourti'i'ii iuehes. These logs are placed in
A building In winter mid the front extract
ed by steam. They are then ruu in ou a
tram railway to the circular saw depart
ment, and cut Into slices or plunks of the
thickueis desired for the length of the peg.
These are sorted and the knots cut out,
and are then pawed ou to a long bench
which contains six machines composed of
fluted rollers. The blocks are then ruu
betweed those roller, which creases both
sides. They are then inn through again
to oioss-oioase, or mark out the exact sizes
of the pegs. Then they go to the splitting
machines, which are sot with double knives,
and cut the blocks into pegs. As they
pass the last machine they are sorted, nud
all knots and discolored ones are removed
as they are brushed olf into large baskets.
These machines are under the case of
young womeu who appeared much more
-happy and useful thau do many of those
who, thumping at their piano, would cou
sider such employment meuiut. The next
process is bleaching, which is accomplished
by the fumes of brimstone, which is un
healthy (those who labor here shorten
their lives.) They are then placed iu large
cylinders, which hold eleven barrels, and
have (iOU steam pipes running through
them, and revolve one aud one-half times
to the minute, drying two charges per day
to each cylinder. They are then passed iu
large woodou casks or cylinders, which,
revolving rapidly, polish them by friction,
the refuse falling through wire sieves or
scroeu openings, after which they are
again passed into a sifter, which separates
all the single pegs aud drops them Into
"tubes and boxes, leaving those which have
-not beeu separated in the machine. They
are theu put iu barrels ready for market.
The factory running on full time turns out
130 bushels, or fifty barrels, per day. The
sizes go from eight up to sixteen to au
juch. The lengths go by eights, two and
oue-half to twelve. Twenty-six hands are
errJpli'yed, half of them being women. The
firodueis of the mill are mostly shipped to
Germany aud Frauco, and euter largely
into the manufacture of toys and fancy
goods, as well as into tho shoe manu
factory. Thus the " genii of mechanism"
converts, as if by magic, the trees from the
Vermont mountains into articles of use,
which, iloating off through the channels of
commerce to far-away countries, anou
return to sparkle the eyes of happy chil
dren in toys in which these pegs have
become important factors.
He Wanted Gold.
Washington, October 0. Au old gen-
tic man from the intorior of Ohio, arrived
here a few days ago with f 17,000 in Uuited
States six per cent.' bonds which he pur
chased iu 1861, aud which were called in
July last. He first visited the loan divis
ion, where he said he came to obtain gold
for his bonds, as he had paid gold for them.
When told that a draft on the United
States treasury was as good as gold, he
insisted upon the gold, and would not lis
ten to any explanations regarding an equiv
alent iu another form. To-day, a little
before noon, he appeared with a large
leather valise, in which he carried off the
full amount of his claim in $20 gold pieces,
weighing in all about seven ty-five pounds,
lie became very much provoked with Treas
urer Gilfilliu when that officer endeavored
to persuaded him to accept drafts and have
"them cashed when be reached home, reit
erating that he came here for gold and
declined to take anything else, lie stag
gered under bis heavy load as far as Assis
tant Treasurer Wyman's room, where he
expressed a wish to count bis treasure
before leaving town. A room was assign
ed to him for the purpose. After the
amount had been carefully counted and
found to be correct the old gentleman was
persuaded to express the coin to bis home.
During the time he was engaged in count
ing the money a city detective who had
been summoned remained near him and
would have kept watch over him had be
insisted upon carrying the money away.
People In Glass Houses ect.
While it may be proper that those living
in glass houses should never throw stones,
-we think it is eminently proper that those
working iu glass house should say a good
word for anything of benefit to themselves.
In this connection, Mr. . Isaao Correy
Manager Salem, N. J. Glass Works,
remarks ; I am pleased to say that I have
used the Great Kemedy, St. Jacobs Oil,
for Rheumatism with excellent results-
other mombers of my family have also beer!
greatly benefited by its use. St. Louis
-Evening Chronicle.
Poison in Honey.
It is a well-known fact among bee-keep.
ers that in bad seasons honey is frequently
poisonous. This is due to the fact that at
such times the bees are frequently obliged
to resort to poisonous flowers to obtain theis
supplies. A specimen of the honey from
Trebizond, gathered from the rhododen
dron ponticum, which is common in that
neighborhood, was sent in 1884, by Mr.
Keith E. Abbott, to the Zoological Society
of London, and in 16D0.it still retained its
poisonous qualities.
