Excerpt from John Hetherington and Sons, Limited: Makers of All Kinds of Cotton Opening, Scutching, Carding, Preparing, Spinning and Doubling Machinery American varieties are classed in four qualities - good ordinary, low middling, middling, and good middling; south american, three - middling fair, fair, and good fair; egyptian, two - fair and good fair; east indian, three - fair, good fair, and good. Standard samples of these classes are preserved for reference, in case of dispute, in the offices of the Liverpool Cotton Brokers' Association; and it is customary amongst brokers to form a set of the classes in which they deal, and, after careful comparison with the standards, to preserve them for easy reference when required. As, however, the crop of each succeeding year differs in some important respect from its predecessor. These standard samples are subject to considerable modification. According to the relative abundance or scarcity, fulness or deficiency, of special characteristics, the different varieties are classed up or down, as the case may require. Thus, within a limited range, there is a constant fluctuation of the standard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
