An encyclopedia article surveying advances in American cotton-spinning machinery over the preceding ten years, following cotton from the bale through the picker room, carding, drawing, roving, spinning, spooling, warping, and chain-quilling. It describes machines and improvements from makers such as Whitin, Howard & Bullough, Platt Bros., Draper, and Hopedale, with 18 engraved figures of cards, roving frames, spindles, ring frames, mules, spoolers, warpers, twisters and a quilling machine. It ends at the point where weaving begins.
