A short 1904 magazine note in Cosmopolitan's "Highways and Byways" section summarizing a set of maps by Edward D. Jones, first published in Leslie's Weekly, that show where American textile mills were located. It covers New England textile mills, North Atlantic woolen mills, Southern cotton mills and the silk mills around Paterson, New Jersey. It comments on Paterson as the "Lyons of America," silk throwing mills in northeastern Pennsylvania, the concentration of knit-goods and woolen factories near Philadelphia, and the growth of Southern cotton manufacturing.
