Installment from Posselt's Textile Journal (October 1916) in a series on making Turkish (terry) toweling. It describes a terry loom reed motion controlled by a dobby or Jacquard, including the cam, lever and duck-bill mechanism and pile warp beam tensioning. It then covers the Northrop automatic Turkish towel loom built by the Draper Company, and fancy effects in terry weaves, with a check-effect weave (Fig. 28) and its warp arrangement. The scan ends with a short item on pongee silk exports from China.
