A continuation (March 1916) of E. A. Posselt's series on narrow woven fabrics, covering lamp wicks. It describes flat wicks built as double cloth united by a binder warp, with weave diagrams, repeats and stripe color effects, and round "hose" wicks woven as double plain tubes, including partly open (split hose) wicks and braided wicks for miners' lamps. The scan also includes two unrelated short pieces on Scotland's linen industry and on starches (farina, sago) for warp sizing.
