I ' Minute Screws Make It Necessary for Special Method to Be Employed in Their Handling. In the manufacture of watches flour plays a rather Important part, two barrels, of flour a week being not un usual in a factory turning out 2,000 to 3,000 watches weekly. Since a baker uses about three pounds of flour to five loaves of bread, it ffillows that for every watch the maker uses the equivalent of almost a third of a loaf. The flour is made Into dough and the doqgh la used to handle screws, rivets and other small parts. Each man In that part of the busi ness has a lump of dough always at hand; and when he wants to examine a screw ha jabs the piece of dough on It, Then, turning it over, he has a good chance to look at it with his watchmaker's microscopic eyeglass. Many of the screws are too' minute to pick up easily with the fingers, and many more, though large enough to he picked up, would be so covered by the fingers or the forceps as to be al most hidden from sight READ ALL THc RCCORlt ADS.
