A one-page dictionary entry on the cloth-shearing machine, used to cut the raised fibers of teaseled woolen cloth to an even level. It describes a rack-and-disk type and the common revolving-shears type, with its spiral-bladed cylinder, ledger-blade, and spring-bed. It also covers the brushing of cloth before cutting, adjustments, broadcloth sizes, Lewis's English transverse-cutting patent, and the shearing of carpets.
