COMPARATIVE SPINNING TESTS OF COTTON. 
The different varieties arranged in the order of their strength 
values, after allowing for the difference in the length of staple of the 
cotton, are as follows (strongest at top of list) :

IRREGULARITY OF YARNS. 
The irregularity of the yarn was determined by calculating the 
average deviation of the sizings and breaking strengths per skein of 
120 yards. 
Table 6 gives the percentages of average deviation in the sizings 
per skein of 120 yards.

Table 6 shows that the yarns made from the different varieties of 
cotton were practically equal in evenness.

MANUFACTURING PROPERTIES. 
No difficulty was encountered in running any of the varieties, all 
showed excellent spinning qualities.
