Results of the Tests of Grades of Cotton
The Department of Agriculture reports results from tests on waste, tensile strength, and bleaching qualities for government grades of cotton. About 120 bales were used, ten or twelve per grade, comparing western upland and Atlantic states upland varieties. Results show similar visible waste across grades with greater differences in lower grades, and mill waste ranging roughly from 4 percent in middling fair to 12 percent in good ordinary. Preliminary tensile tests indicate yarn from both classes is about equal in length and strength.
