New fabric blends create a new demand for cotton clothing; new fashion uses are being found; mills are changing to process the fiber more cheaply and effectively; and farm suppliers are selling more equipment to harvest the crop.

Abstract:
Eleven years after enactment of North Carolina’s Natural Death Act, which recognizes the need for limited treatment in certain situations, hospitals are still grappling with how to care for the dying and with the ethical question of when to cease care.
