Excerpt from The Papermakers' Pocket Book: Specially Compiled for Paper Mill Operatives, Engineers, Chemists, and Office Officials This book has been compiled with a view to place before Paper-Mill Workers generally concise information relating to the Engineering, Chemical, and other departments of Paper Mills. The author in his daily work has long felt the need of such a collection of data as is here given, and many years ago began to collect such items as were useful, with a view to publication. The present attempt to supply what is most useful is somewhat imperfect, owing partly to the character of the work itself and the wide range of subject which it covers; but the author hopes to bring it up in the course of time to the standard of other works of a similar class. Errors have doubtless crept into the text, and the author will thank any readers who may point them out or offer suggestions on the work itself for incorporation in future editions. The author desires to thank those friends, too numerous to name individually, for the assistance they have rendered him in revising the text, &c.
