Two pages from The Textile Mercury, 17 May 1890. The first describes J. H. Stott's patent Universal Warp Balling Machine of Rochdale, with an engraving and a short history of warping from peg warping and the reel mill to beam warping. The second page covers dyeing and printing: benzophenone colouring matters, dyeing recipes for wool and cotton, patent blue and acid violet N, and tannin compounds for calico printing.
