Excerpt from Crop Plants for Paper Making
The first or cover fo_lio (pp. 1, 2, 19, and 20) is printed on paper made from shredded cornstalks (80 per cent) and cotton-hull fiber (20 per cent). The raw materials were cooked together in a stationary digester by the soda process. The pith cells of the corn were partly removed by passing the pulp once over a wet separator.
