The actual over all dimensions of a 144-spindle frame,4-inch gauge, would be 5 feet 10 inches wide by 28 feet 6 inches Page 54 long. On a basis of two and one-half times greater spindle capacity,there would be in this above-mentioned area an equivalent of 360mule spindles. Pulleys: 14-inch diameter by 3-inch face, run 450 revolutionsper minute. Horse Power: About 50 spindles per horse power.

This System is well known in the manufacture of cotton yarns,having been used for many years with the regular machinery forproducing low grade yarns from mixtures of waste and cotton, butmanufacturers for some time have been trying to avoid the operationof mixing waste with their regular work on account of rejection oforders and general criticism from buyers, be
