Text Appearing Before Image:
times longerthan it entered. Where does the sliver of Cotton now go ? To the stubbing or twisting machine, which has a preliminaryspindle, and a bobbin to receive the slightly twisted sliver. Theslubber has three sets of rollers or stretchers. Great numbersof original slivers are now in the sliver that is stretched andslightly twisted in the slubbing frame. From the bobbins of theslubber the twisted sliver goes to the stretching rollers of theintermediate-frame. Here the slivers are again doubled. Asthese frames come, each has more spindles. We now arrive atthe roving (twisting) frame, merely another and last set ofthe roller-stretchers, with seldom less than one hundred spindles.When the sliver or rove is on the bobbins from these spindles, itis ready for spinning in fact. It must be understood thatdifferent spinners may use a different series of stretching-appa-ratus. They may combine the rollers in fewer or separate theminto a greater number of machines. 380 THE FIRESIDE UNIVERSITY
Text Appearing After Image:
l - CLOTHES, ETC. 381 What state is the Cotton now in ? It is a fine, fleecy, roving, or slightly twisted string, incapableof bearing much strain,useless as warpy but if further elongated,it might be used as woof (or weft). It now goes either to Ark-wrights throstle* or to Hargreaves jenny—or to combinationsof the two machines. What was Hargreaves Jenny ? He saw a spinning-wheel fall over. The fly-wheel was goingrapidly, and the spindle standing vertically continued to whirl,while the flax continued to twist off its point. So he set up arow of eight spindles, turned them all by one wheel, and with along holder, drew flax away from them all at once. This hecalled a spinning-jenny, jenny being the word for a little engine.The spinners, believing his jenny with its eighty spindles (asafterward enlarged) would starve them, mobbed him. With thisjenny, only woof was prepared. The warp was always of Linenthreads. What did Arkwright do ? He made the throstle^ and all the roller machines cal
