BY THE EDITOR.

I have not time 10 give full description Of
the mode Of spinning fax and tow. After the
spool became full, II was reeled OF, aud each
cut tied up separately. Tho skeins generally
contained four cuts, Of 100 threads each Large
lunches Of these skens of thread we're to be
seen at Almost all times hung up TO the ioisis
of the log cabins
Before the thread was woven, Il had to he
boiled In l,e, made Of wood asher. This boiling
In lye was to prevent tho thread from kinklng.
Ths thread was then run upon large spools, and
from that put upon warplng bars, then taken oil
aud run upon the yarn beam Of the LOOM then
taken through the gears then through tho reed,
aud finally woven. These, done by hand, were
tedious processes, and took much time. Thread
was spun Of different tlneness, as was doslred.
That known as eight hundred, was about The
anest. Six hundred made nice shirts, while five
hundred was rather coarse. Thcae dcnomlna'
lIOns were 50 named on account OF tho number
OF splits In the reed. six hundred reed had
six hundred spite. and consequently six hundred
spaces between The splits. Two threads were
drawn through each OF these spaces, making
twelve hundred threads In a web Of six hundred
hnencsL
Ai,or the web was all woven, the linen wat
taken ont and blpached This was done by
spreading It upon the ground and sprinkling I
with wafer uht quite wet As soon as the sun
