ARTIFICIAL WOOL.
NO' RIVAL TO' REAL STUFF. BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT Received Feb. 20. 2. 55 p.m. LONDON, Feb. 19. Mr Theodore Taylor, a woollen manufacturer at Batley, expresses the opinion that artificial wool is. misnamed. He says it is as distinct from wool as is cotton, tol which it is chemically allied. All wool, even .shoddy, is superior to artificial fibres, which are colder to touch and heavier in proportion to their warmth, while it creases and stretches. It could usually be mingled judiciously with wool, cotton and fiax; but he hoped, for the sake of shareholders’ business', it would not- be overdone.
