Water quality and flax dressing in early industry notes
The piece discusses water types for flax dressing, criticizing bog water for dull linen color and poor bleaching. It contrasts river and flowing waters, noting effects on fermentation, labor for driers, and overall cloth quality, while quoting notices and advertisements from 1739 about events, auctions, and law notices with miscellaneous local ads.
Public Notice on Seed Frauds and Delivery Requirements

Only merchantable seed meeting bond terms, grown this year, in new sacks with at least four bushels, will be accepted. Deliveries must be verified at specified towns between December 1 and January 3, with clear quantity and origin statements. Notices also seek hemp seed quantities and rates, with reporting to the Linen Office in Dublin. Dublin Castle, 2th 1737.
