A two-page 1868 engineering article describing a steam-driven locomotive cotton press built by Appleby Brothers of London, with two elevation drawings. It explains how the self-propelled machine compresses cotton into bales using screws and a hydraulic ram, and why it would suit cotton districts such as India. It is about baling machinery, not weaving.
