Two pages of dictionary entries on hat-making terms and machinery, excerpted from Knight's American Mechanical Dictionary. Entries define hat blocks, hat-bodies, brushing, planking, stiffening and perforating machines, hat-measuring devices, ventilators, napping, and tools like the rounding-gage. A short entry describes preparing Tuscan straw for straw hats, and another defines sennit (plaited straw).
