Not illustrated. 1912 edition. Excerpt: ...James Madison, later President, who was a member of the convention, said in a conversation with Coxe, "There was no reason to doubt that the United States would one day become a great cotton-producing country." And in the same year Thomas Jefferson wrote to M. de Warville, under date of August 15: " The four southernmost states make a great deal of cotton. Their poor are almost entirely clothed in it winter and summer. In winter they wear shirts of it, and outer clothing of cotton and wool mixed.

The best evidence proves that the first culture of cotton in the South was made on the peninsula between the Delaware and Chesapeake Bays, and that the growth of cotton spread across to Western Maryland and Virginia, and so on extended until it had become the great Southern crop.

Walsh sent him in 1786 a large quantity of various seeds of Jamaica, and also three large sacks of the Pernambuco cotton seed. Levett wrote Walsh in 1789: --"Being in want of the sacks for gathering in my provisions I shook...

Excerpt from The Story of Textiles: A Bird's-Eye View of the History, of the Beginning and the Growth of the Industry, by Which Mankind Is Clothed As clothing has from time immemorial been one of man's necessities and almost as essential to his Welfare as food, it is not surprising that the textile industry has long in value of output been second only to the production of food stuffs. Important, however, as the industry is, its history, so far as the writer knows, has never, at least in America, been published. Aside from its importance the industry possesses much of interest not only for the student, but also for the man of affairs. Different branches of the industry, such as wool, silk, cotton, and linen, have been treated separately, but nothing has been written about the origin and growth of the industry as a Whole.
