The Cotton Yarn Spinner, Showing How the Preparation Should Be Arranged for Different Counts of Yarns: By a System More Uniform Than Has Hitherto Been ... We Make All Our Changed (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Cotton Yarn Spinner, Showing How the Preparation Should Be Arranged for Different Counts of Yarns: By a System More Uniform Than Has Hitherto Been Practice; By Having a Standard Schedule From Which We Make All Our ChangedI have often wished for some one to introduce a more improved system of making different counts of yarn, by which the manufacturer can make his changes, from a schedule, having become impatient by the want of such a formula I undertook the task myself, in which you will find extracts from the general schedule put in a table form to suit the machine, and a place for it in the book.When looking over these tables for the purpose of changing your counts, you will soon discover how consistent, is the preparation to the Numbers of Yarn.Now this being the object, which induced me to write this work, that every manufacturer, individually and collectively, might, if he chooses, adopt this method, if he finds it the nearest and most economic manner, out of the many different ways of producing the numbers required, for there is only one way that is perfect under every advantage, and this we are trying to emulate, and in so doing, it is my earnest wish and desire that you will give this method a fair trial, that you may realize and be honestly convinced of its merits. If I am favored with such results that you feel confident of its success, there will be one more who has conceived the intelligent manner, which this system exhibits, and I feel confident will become general, that being so will be the climax of my ambition for it is natural I should feel so, having spent a lifetime in this business, acquiring knowledge by the experience and opportunities afforded me, am willing now, for the benefit of those who are inclined to be progressive, to turn over this accumulated capital for the general welfare of machinists and spinners, hoping they will invest it with as much care as I have used in acquiring it, trusting that the interest which will be derived from it may assume the proportion of my wishes.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
