- A Complete Dictionary of Dry Goods | by George S. Cole
- The plan of the "Dictionary of Dry Goods" includes several objects, which, briefly stated, are: the proper description of all textile fabrics and manufactured articles; the peculiarities which distinguish a fabric and by which it may be identified; the method of weaving or manufacture; the origin of the names of all fabrics, with the history and literature of the subject; the definition of terms, words and phrases which have only a trade application, and which have sprung up with the development of the business in the nineteenth century; and the import duties under the new tariff on all goods, raw or manufactured. The Dictionary is designed to be a practically complete and comprehensive record of all fabrics which are in general use at the present time, together with full explanations of the modern process of carding, spinning, dyeing, weaving, knitting, netting, bleaching, and felting, constituting a book for general reference by merchants and clerks.
- Encyclopedia Of Practical Receipts And Processes | by William B. Dick
- The original design of the compiler of this work was to prepare a collection of popular and domestic receipts, to contain only those whose practical utility had been established, either by actual trial or by the guaranty of undoubted authorities, thus excluding the mass of untried, and, consequently, unreliable information to be found in Receipt Books, compiled with a view to quantity rather than quality. As the work progressed, it was found, in many cases, no easy matter to draw a line between the simple or practical and the artistic or scientific. To meet this difficulty, it was determined to enlarge its scope, increasing the usefulness of the former by the additional light of scientific research, and rendering the latter easy of application by reducing the formulae and technicalities of scientific writers to plain language, so as to be understood by the uninitiated.
- Domestic Encyclopedia Or A Dictionary Of Facts, And Useful Knowledge Vol1 | by A. F. M. Willich
- As the nature and practical tendency of the Domestic Encyclopaedia have, in some measure, been anticipated, partly in the prefixed Title-page, and partly in the foregoing Dedication, a few remarks on the origin and composition of this Work, will suffice to convince the indulgent Reader, that it has not been undertaken with a view merely to increase the number of voluminous works already extant, and of a similar complexion. It has been generally supposed, that the rapid succession of Cyclopaedias, and Encyclopaedias, which have appeared within the last twenty years, and which often are more distinguished by their alluring title-pages than by their intrinsic merit, affords so many proofs of the progress of Science and Literature, as well as of the increasing spirit of inquiry. This conjecture, however, is extremely doubtful, if not totally unfounded...

- The New Student's Reference Work Volume 1
- The Student's Reference Work has long been known and valued as
supplying just that reference material which is needed by teachers and
pupils in elementary and secondary schools. While partial revisions
have been made from year to year, yet in order to keep fully abreast
of the times a radical revision and the introduction of much new
material have become necessary.
Accordingly we now present The New Student's Reference Work, which
practically is a new work. New material has added more than one third
to its volume, while the articles which appeared in the former work
have been largely rewritten and entirely reset. In its preparation we
were able to secure the cooperation of specialists and educators whose
standing will be recognized upon inspection of our list of editors and
contributors. Advantage has been taken of suggestions which have come
to us from many teachers during years of experience in the use of the
former work, and it is believed that the present work will be found
adequate and satisfactory.
