Two-page issue excerpt from Textile World Journal's cotton manufactures technical section. The main article, by Lanceham, covers cotton shirting fabric design, comparing madras and pongee grounds, typical thread counts and yarn sizes, and harness requirements for dobby-woven patterns with artificial silk, colored stripes, momie and Bedford cord weaves. It includes fabric swatches and weave drafts (Figs. 1-8). A second article, on the setting of drawing rolls on roving and spinning frames, follows on page 2.
