make a perfect weave cloth. The
mill remnant CONES as a result Of
this imperfect weaving. Ifa piece
Of cloth, say 80 yards. is being
woven. the operator cuts out the
l@perfectly woven place, and the
good piece left goes to the remnant
pile, the piece being one yard, five
yards or ten yards. None of these
slight flaws make any difference
to the user, but it prevents the
mill or factory from selling the
goods at profitable prices. The
great mass Of mill remnants Sc
cured for this sale consists OF new
goods direct from the loom and
are offered at "mill cost. " None
of these cloths can be sold by the
manufacturers as fun pieces, as
they are wanting in length.
