WHAT Is AN INGRAM CARPEr.-The
two-ply ingram known to the trade is a
fabric composed Of two webs or plies
Of cloth made of different colord ye.rns
say one ply green, tho other red
of equal Conscience or texture, united
the edges or selvages of each by the
selvags threads, and ingrained or
united at different parts Of the cloth,
wherever called for by the design or
pattern. If the red ply represents
the ground color Of the design, then
the green will DO the figure color; and
whsnever the green figuring ply ap-
pears over the red ground ply, that
Is ingraining. The more general this
ingraining or mixing up Of the two
webs or pliss, the better the fabric is
iugrainsl and the longer it will wear.
The thrse-ply ingram is made and in
grained after the same maner. A two
ply carpet, woven on the same loom
aud !" mounted" in the same manner
q 4 two-ply ingram, If woven plain,
without any design or pattern, would
be q seemlsss bag, or two bags joind
together by one side of each.
