The number of spindles to be increased during the current year throughout the country agregates 53,552 which represent,
taking last year's production as the basis of estimate, an increased output of about 42,300 hales. With regard to the demand for cotton yarn in China, it may be described as practically unlimited. At the rate of one bale for every tos of popula in, as in Japan, it may be com puted that there exists in China a market for about four million bales of yarn.
