An illustrated trade article from The Textile Mercury (3 January 1891) describing the waste spinning machinery built by Asa Lees & Co., Limited, of Oldham. It covers the breaker card, the finisher card with Bollette condenser, and the patent self-acting mule for spinning cotton, wool, shoddy and mungo wastes into woolly-looking yarn of coarse counts. The text opens with remarks on the economics of using mill waste, and then lists the mule's patented motions one by one.
