UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
FRANK WHEATON, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
FIBER DISINTEGRAT ED FROM COTTON-STALKS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 254,746, dated March 7,. 1882.
Applicationlfiled January 26, 1882. (No specimens.)
.have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fiber Disintegrated from Cotton- Stalks and prepared as set forth; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention,such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
There are several fibrous parts of the cottonplant, such as the fiber of the cotton itself, that of the bark of the stalk, and also that of the root, besides others, each of which has its own qualities. Practically these fibers, except that of cotton, have been disposed of as rubbish or waste by the planters, and any inherent value of either has been unknown.
Patents have been sought for making paper from the leaves, pith, wood, root, and bark, and also for various combinations and processes, but none for the staple formed out of the disintegrated stalks of the cottonrplant. This is my discovery, and by means of it I can,
as hereinafter more fully stated, produce an.
article of worth, serviceable in many and various ways, cheap,strong, durable, and handsome, and which will prove 0t great value and importance to those who have hitherto been unable to utilize this fiber to advantage, and have therefore regarded it solely as an expensive incumbrance and waste.
My invention consists of a method of disintegrating cotton-stalks, whereby I produce, when properly prepared, a long, strong, and valuable staple, light, durable, and soft and silky in its nature, readily yielding to and preserving an inexpensive bleaching.
In carrying out my invention I proceed asfollows: I- take the stalks and branches in their or three hours, or in a house or inclosure for one day or more-and pass it through corrugated rollers in order to scutch or break the outer covering from its fibrous parts. Then by carding or hackling 1 get the fiber or staple.
FRANK WHEATON.
