UNIVERSAL TABLES of TEXTILE STRUCTURE. By JOSEPH EDMONDSON. Price 7s. 6d.

These Tables provide what has long been wanted-a simple and easy means of ascertaining the counts of yarns and the reeds or number of "picks" or "shots" required to make fabrics having exactly the same character and proportions but of various weights or fineness. The principle on which the Tables are founded is well known and much used in the muslin manufacture, but the intricacy of the calculations hitherto required (especially when the warp and weft differ in counts and in the closeness of the threads) has prevented its general application. By these Tables all the required particulars may be obtained, without calculation, by mere references to the proper places in the columns. The Tables are universally applicable throughout the whole range of woven fabrics, whatever the material composing them, or whatever the mode of numbering the yarns or reeds.
