An International Correspondence Schools instruction paper on mixing wool stock before carding. It covers laying out mixes in alternating layers on the picker room floor, blending wool with shoddy, mungo, noils, cotton and silk, and calculating the cost and proportions of mixes by the linking (alligation) method. The second half describes mixing pickers (Davis & Furber, Atlas), the Fearnaught, and the Bramwell automatic picker feed, with construction, driving, operation and management, illustrated by line drawings of the machines.
