. Modern mechanism, exhibiting the latest progress in machines, motors, and the transmission of power, being a supplementary volume to Appletons' cyclopaedia of applied mechanics . th-wisc the slot. By reason of the toothbeing tajiered and pointed and ar-ranged in the slot, there is an openspace extending directly in front ofthe point of the tooth and aroundthe same on both sides. This is theopening already referred to. in whichthe cotton can enter by its elasticityand softness when pressed against the periphery of the cylinder. The openings and teeth in the sheet G are made with the sheet flat. When the sheet isbent in cylindrical form, the teeth being attached only on one end will not naturally partakeof the curved shaipe of the bent sheet,but will remain straight, or, in otherwords, will remain tangential to thecircumference. The elevation ofthe point is, however, so slight asnot to enable it to engage with hardforeign substances in the cotton,while on the other hand it is sulTi-cient to allow it to penetrate, as al-ready stated, through the soft cov-ering of the seed before drawingout the fiber, as the rotation of thecvlinder continues.
