A single-page opening of an 1893 Economic Journal article on weavers in the Bradford worsted trade, written as a supplement to J. B. Firth's earlier article of September 1892. It introduces weaving as a piecework industry that shifted from men to women with the power loom, and gives Board of Trade figures for 1889 on worsted factory employment in Yorkshire, broken down by sex and age.
