How Seamless Stockings are Made.

Chairman Mills of the Committee on Ways
and Means, whose alu>ion to the ">ecret pro-
cess" by which foreigners are able to make
seamless stockings is likely to become historic,
ought to be interested in the following graphic
description which the Rockford QI.) Gazette
gives of Il new automatic kntter which is turn
ing out seamless stockings 1T rapid rate in
that city:
''Entering Il room where there were some
70 of them in operation, the ceare>t idea that
the reporter could get for the first few minutes
was Il number Of machines buzziny about in
the most bewildering manner, three or four
threads running into the top and miles of socks
sock; rip, buzz, jam, sock-the way the socks
drop out Of the machine makes persons eyes
bulge out.
The machine is of the class known as circ,l-
lar knitting machines and is entirely automatic
in its action, beginning at the leg with rotary
motion. Upon arriving at the proper place for
the heel it suddenly slows up, and, without any
reason apparent to the reporters vi9iant gaze,
changes to reciprOcatorv or back and forth
motion, at the same time inserting an extra
thread to strengthen that portion of the sock.
After finishing the heel it cuts out the extra
thread, resumes the rotary motion and knits
the foot and then the toe. changing yarns as is
necessary. After finishing the toe it starts right
| in on another sock and repeats the operation,
each machine producing from S5 to 100 pairs
of socks per day of ten hours. One of the
most valuable features of the machine is the ar.
ranScmcnt by which the extra thread is added
to the heel and toe, and the most ingenious me.
| chanIcal device is the one by which the rotary
motion is changed to the reciprocatorv at the
proper place without causing jar or jerk in
any part of the machine.
The machine can be built to make any grade
of goods from mans coarse sock IN tho fiun,
grades of ladies' and chdren's hose, and it ha n.
dies cotton or woolen with equal facility. II
would fill our good grandmothers with aston
| ishinent to see sock knitted in less than three
minutes; but that is what this knitter does
Steadily.'
