The chips are cooked in special steamers until they are soft.

The softened chips are beaten to pieces in large vats until they form a pasty pulp.

The pulp is spread over an endless belt of woven wire cloth of small mesh.

The water runs off and leaves a sheet of wet pulp which then is run between a large number of heated and polished steel cylinders which press and dry the pulp into sheets of paper.
Finally, it is wound into large rolls ready for commercial use.
If a pulp and paper industry is built up in Alaska, it will be of great benefit to that northern country.

It will increase the population by creating a demand for more labor.
