An early twentieth-century correspondence-school text on preparing warps for power weaving, mainly in cotton mills, with a final section on woolen and worsted warp dressing. It covers the spooler (speed calculations, banding, building motion, thread guides, knotters), beam warpers (creels, stop motion, expansion combs, leese reeds), long- and short-chain systems with ball warpers and beamers, and the slasher (size vat, cylinders, size recipes, measuring and bell gear). The last part gives worked examples of calculating ends and spools for striped and pattern warps, and describes hand-rail warping, hand-beamers, and woolen dressers. It is illustrated with machine line drawings and photographs.
