g The price of broadcloths, as they are now gene
rally fold by merchants, is from four TO feven
, dollars per yard. But will take a medium and
fuPpoie that tolerably good frong cloth NAV be
Purchafed at five dollars. Allow five wards of
TINS cloth to make man fuit of clohes viz coat
welt, and pantaloons. The con is 25 dolls. This
cloth is about double the width of that. which Is
made IN our own families. Conlequenty, ten wards
OF the latter will be required to make the fame it
ihs live dollar broadcloth, certainly will neither be
finer, nor more durable, than cloth, which NAV be
made IN every family. Let us, then, calculate the
expence of making this domeltic cloth Inouirv ba,
been made of number of perlons, who make thu.
cloth and none has eRimated the colt higher than
what follows, viz.
Wool, lb. to each yard, after it is
dreiied, at o,4o
Carding and fpinnng each yard, o28
Weaving each yard, OIL
Drshipg each yard, O,23
Total, 1o7
We will, however, throw in the other three cents.
and fuppoie it to colt one dollar and ten cents per
yard. The ten yards 70 make the fuit. will tben
cof dolls infead Of the IS, for that bought of The
merchant making faving of IA dollars with this
advantage over and above, that the one is the pro-
duct of our labour, and the other mutt be naid for
III money. And, if the cloth manufactured at home.
hould not be quite 70 inooth as the other il will a.
leait be quite durable. The prices for fpinp;,o
and weaving, above ftated, it is believed, are the
higheit, which are given, where the fpinners and
weavers take the work horne board thenifelyes, and
lind their own Wheels looms, &c"
