Excerpt from The Textile Industries, Vol. 1: A Practical Guide to Fibres, Yarns and Fabrics in Every Branch of Textile Manufacture, Including Preparation of Fibres, Spinning, Doubling, Designing, Weaving, Bleaching, Printing, Dyeing and FinishingSide by side with the estrangement of the various branches of textile manufacture, and consequent ignorance of each other's methods and processes, has come the ever-increasing demand for higher efficiency and closer organization, which can only be realized through a general understanding of the principles of the industry. To be successful the manufacturer must keep a wide outlook, must' keenly observe the sources of raw materials and the markets for his finished products, and organize his operations on the most economical lines. In the textile industry, labour, to be efficient, must be intelligently self-directed. Knowledge of the raw material he manipulates, and the uses of his own product, adds incalculably to the ability of the worker. It is impossible for operatives to acquire such knowledge in the factory, they are too fully occupied with the practical duties of their own departments.Perceiving the needs of the new time, leading manufacturers and others interested in the welfare of the textile industry have secured the establishment of technical colleges, highly efficient and admirable in every way. But technical schools and colleges are restricted and limited by many conditions. They are mostly devoted to teaching those branches of textile industry prevalent in the locality in which they are situated. Hampered by lack of funds, they are able neither to accommodate one tithe of the operatives engaged in the industry nor to extend the curriculum to suit the needs of the average worker.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
