A two-page article from Posselt's Textile Journal, April 1919, on laboratory methods for testing textile materials. It covers chemical tests for water impurities (iron, lime, magnesia, sulphates, chlorides, nitrates, ammonia, organic matter), tests of soaps used for fulling wool, and dye testing: fastness to light, washing, alkali, acids, chlorine, stoving, fulling and perspiration, plus dye matching and detecting dye mixtures and adulterants. A short item at the end reports on felt and cloth made from spun glass in Italy.
