Two pages from the April 1912 issue of Posselt's Textile Journal (pp. 102-103). They open with the end of a piece on cotton root galls and root rot (Ozonium), then continue the serial chronology of textile events with entries for 1803 to 1807 on early American cotton and woolen mills, Samuel and John Slater, carding and spinning machinery, and English loom and hosiery inventions. A short item on increasing the strength of tin-weighted silk follows.
