Three pages from The Textile Mercury (11 April 1891) with trade articles on mill machinery. The main piece describes W. A. Booth's improved patent section warping machine, made by Robert Hall and Sons of Bury. It uses a screwed-spindle presser driven by a friction disc, in place of lever linkages, so sections come out uniform. It also covers a square-hole universal drilling machine and the start of a paper on yarn and thread bleaching (warp bleaching processes), plus two short news items on the cotton and jute trades.
