Second edition of a booklet from the journal Textiles on cost accounting methods for textile mills. It explains how to compile departmental statistics and calculate the cost per pound or per yard for cotton, woolen, worsted, hosiery and knit underwear mills. It includes sample cost sheets for carding, spinning, spooling, warping, dressing, weaving, finishing, waste and loom efficiency, plus worked examples of yarn cost, machine production and fixed charges. The last pages hold advertisements for textile books, a Fahrenheit-Centigrade table and a subscription notice.

A one-page article by Samuel S. Dale on 'straight line' calculations for woven and finished weights and lengths of cloth, aimed especially at woolen and worsted goods that shrink during finishing. It sets out six related factors (yards and ounces per yard woven and finished, yield in length and in weight) and seven formulas linking them, with a worked cassimere example and further worked problems for shrinkage, weight loss, and finished yardage.

A one-page article from the journal Textiles, part of Samuel S. Dale's "Straight Line" textile calculations series, dealing with woven and finished weights and lengths of cloth. It sets out seven formulas relating yards woven and finished, ounces per yard woven and finished, and yield in length and weight, with a worked example of a woolen cassimere cut. Further worked examples cover shrinkage in length, loss of weight, and finding woven or finished weights and yardage. The formulas are aimed especially at woolen and worsted goods that change in length and weight during finishing.

An article from the trade journal Textiles that explains the basic units of length, area and weight used in textile calculations and the systems for numbering yarn. It contrasts fixed-weight systems (cotton, worsted, woolen, linen, with yards per pound) with fixed-length systems (silk deniers and drams, jute). It covers ply notation, including the exception for spun silk, and has tables of the principal yarn-count standards. The page ends with an unrelated item on English import licenses.

A one-page installment of Samuel S. Dale's series on "straight line" textile calculations. It lists equivalent expressions for the fixed-weight yarn numbering systems (run, cotton, worsted, linen, woolen, metric), and explains yards per ounce, the denier count and dram system for silk, and the jute pound system. It also shows how to convert yarn numbers between systems and includes a table of reeled silk diameters by denier, in microns and diameters per inch.

Two pages from Textiles, vol. 15 (pp. 14-15). The first is part of Samuel S. Dale's series on yarn number calculations, giving conversion formulas between yarn counting systems (runs, cotton, worsted, West of England, linen, Yorkshire, yards per pound, metric), with denier, dram, grains and jute equivalents. The second page carries an unrelated installment of W. Scott Taggart's 'The Mechanics of Textile Processes', covering levers, centers of gravity, moments, and mechanical advantage and velocity ratio, with worked examples.
