Dust Rolled Out of the Carpet

For cleaning carpets, very satisfactory results have been obtained from a big open-work drum of wood which is turned by a gasoline engine. The carpets to be treated are placed inside and the drhm turned and after about 30 minutes of this the carpets are thoroughly cleaned and are - none the worse for treatment. The beating process is sometimes db. strous to carpets which are well worn, but this rolling process does them no injury.
