A short magazine article arguing that the United States should develop a domestic linen manufacturing industry. It gives import figures for flax manufactures, including a breakdown by product category for 1883. It notes that the US makes cordage, carpet yarns, threads and coarse cloth from flax but no fine linens, and that American-grown flax is said to be of good enough quality for fine linen.
