The story began around 2600 years before Christ. Now the textile Arts are sec- ond in importance only to Agriculture. Cotton came originally from India. The Chinese guarded their knowledge of silk culture carefuy. In 1884 the production of synthetic materias was successful. Ontario is beginning to revive this almost forgotten art.
