HOUSEHOLD HINTS much impressed by an exhth of Kamp tulicon, a floor covering made of rub- ber and gutta percha and oil and cork. It was durable and fleadble, but costly because of the rubber. How to make a similar covering minus the prohibitive cost was the problem that Walton had set himself to work out. He was a manufacturer with a trained scientific mind. and such minds are always open to new inipressions. So it chanced that one day, standing beside the bench in his mill, he picked up a piece of the skin that had formed on a tin of exposed paint. Absentmindedly he rol- led this between his fingers and was struck by its consistency. It was tough yet elastic, smooth, even in colour and durable. His knowledge supplied the reason for this at once. The product had been oridized by the exposure to the air. Having found the clue Walton set himself to work on the practical solut- ion of ways and means. Experiments gave him in 1863 the patented product which he called Linoleum, from linum, flax, andoleum, oilâ€"the linseed oil used in its manufacture being obtained from flaxseed. Linoleum is still made as Wal- ton made it from oxidized oil and gum mixed with cork (ground to a flour) and wood flour, pressed to a burlap back. An Englishman invented linoleum and English homes have always used it freely since that time, but the wide world sets up the counter over which are bought the raw materials for its manufacture. Raw jute, the basis for the canvas backing, originates in Brit- ish India; cork comes from Spain, Por- tugal and Algeria; flaxseed which yields linseed oil, is contributed by Canada and the Western States, the Argentine and India; then from here and there about the globe come the other minor ingredients for this sturdy floor cover- ing. Some of us think we work hard over the production of Canadian field crops, but our labor would seem child’s play to the growers of jute. In the alluvial In 1862 a great exhibition was held in London. One or the visitors was a. man soil of the deltas of rivers we find most of the ute fields. These are ploughed four times, and in March and April the seed is sown. In three months the reed-like plant has grown to a height of ten or twelve feet. It is cut and thrown into tanks and left there for a time. This is known as “ret- ting". The outer fibre softens and is carefully removed, patient hands strik- ing the fibres against the water to re- move impurities. After drying the fibre is shipped to Dundee, Scotland. where most of the world’s jute is woven. Climatic conditions are important in this as in so many kinds of weaving. and Dundee has the right climate for the making of jute. | nus nomcnormna | Stripping the tree is a delicate op- eration. Two cuts are made around the tree. one just above the ground and the other just below the spread of the branches. Longitudinal incisions are then made, and the cork carefully loos- ended and removed in curved sheets. The utmost care is exercised that there may be no injury of the delicate inner bark from which the cork cells for the next crop will develop. The bark is scraped, cleaned and boiled in large vats to make it more fliable. Cork that is to be used in linoleum is broken to coarse pieces in one machine, then ground and re-ground, some of it is fine it is called cork flour. In the cork mill there is constant danger of fire and explosion. and they are eternally vigilant to keep it clean and~ free of dust. "2 fl As we have seen , the oxidized oil was the toy to the evolution of modern linoleum. The extracted oil is boiled for several hours at a temperature of 500 Cork trees are one of the many won- ders of nature. Here we have a tree that lives for 150 years. yielding a har- vest of cork bark each eight or ten years, after the first bark is taken at the age of fifteen or twenty years. The first crap is rough and woody, but after that the quality improves and gives a cork that is soft and flexible in tex- degrees F., then cooled. It is then pumped to the top of the tall building known as the oxidizing shed, and thence through a system of perforated pipes so that the oil drips slowly through to (lowdown long lengths of light cot- ton; known as scrim. These hang closely together from the ceiling to floor, and as the oil flows over them a certain quantity becomes oxidized, that is, mix- ed With air, which is kept at an even temperature of 100 degrees.

The mixture pressed into the burlap base by huge rollers, each of which weighs about 26 tons. These rolls can be regulated to give any thickness of linoleum. Reminding us once more of meat processes, the linoleum is cured, a pro- cess lasting for days and weeks. In im- mense drying ovens, miles of lindleum is hung in festoons, and a unitbrm steam heat finishes the long process of manufacture. Frederick Walton was keen to find the secret of such a floor covering be- cause he recognized its virtuesâ€"it would be resilient, easy to clean durable In its early days linoleum was poss- ibly not noted for its beauty, if one judges by references to its rather drab protection of lodging house halls and its serviceable but not artistic duty in kitchens and bath-rooms. But what- ever its claim to beauty in youth, mod- eran linoleum can be very lovely, with that inherent beauty that spells hon- esty and usefulness and adaptation to its seeing. The process of making may be the same as developed by Walton, but the new linoleums have a dull, soft texture that makes them welcome as a floor covering in the living-room as well as in the workshop of the home. For this reason, we are seriously inter- ested in linoleum as a. factor in house- hold decoration. use strong soap and hot water! How aching backs and par-boiled hands sing the praises of such a carpet! Ar- tistically'many a woman would pre- fer a woven carpet, and she may choose this, provided she can be sure that it will be kept clean. A dusty carpet adds no beauty anywhere. So where there are small children and many chores, we often elect to do the whole 'house with linoleum. There is no need to argue the case for the linoleum in the farm home on its practical virtues. The busy farm woman knows the attraction of a floor which the is actually forbidden to scrub, and on which she must never Choosing the patterns leads us to a knowledge of the new ideas in this product. We find we can have em- bossed inlaid linoleums, the mortar lines being depressed to give the effect of actual tiles. These are excellent for halls. sun-rooms, bathrooms, and in the sort of living-room that has a stone fireplace and oak furniture-â€" nothing formal or fragile. The inlaid linoleum in pastel shades is good for bedrooms or dining-room. With them we can use rugs as desired. Marble tile is used in halls and in living-rooms and is often seen as a background for good rugs and quite formal furniture. The jaspes show a fine grain like the quartz for which they are named, and the quiet two-tone effect is good where we want to use rugs also. Printed lin- oleum differs from inlaid in that the pattern is printed on the surface with oil paints. Naturally it has not the en- during quality of inlay, but with lamp- er care it will give many years of use- fulness. The care of inoleum begins with an emphatic DON'T. Don’t use strong soap soap powders, abrasive powders, hot water. When soap must be used in an emergancy, see that it is mild in qual- ity, preferably of the neutral linseed oil variety.
