               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Basis of Presentation

  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (which consist solely of normal
recurring adjustments unless otherwise disclosed) necessary to present fairly,
in all material respects, its financial position as of September 30, 1998 and
June 30, 1998, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three
month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.  The results of operations
for the three month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

  The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested
that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual
report on Form 10-K.

  This report contains forward-looking statements with respect to the
financial conditions, results of operations and business of the Company.  Such
items are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those set forth in such statements.


Comprehensive Income

  Comprehensive income, defined as net income and other comprehensive income,
for the first quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 was $3,296,000 and
$2,569,000, respectively.  Other comprehensive income includes foreign
currency translation adjustments recorded directly in shareholders' equity.

       Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                        and Results of Operations




Significant Changes in Results of Operations:

  Net sales for the first quarter ended September 30, 1998 increased by
$2,641,000 or 4.4% from the comparable quarter of the prior year.  The sale
of the Company's Dutch subsidiary, Eland-Brandt B.V., during the prior year
significantly impacts the comparison which if excluded would show an increase
of $4,624,000 or 8.0% in quarterly sales.  This increase in sales from
continuing operations is primarily composed of a $4,768,000 or 17.5% increase
posted by the Commercial Products Group resulting from strong demand in the 
Southwestern and Midwestern regions of the country.

  The cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 68.9% for the quarter
ended September 30, 1998 as opposed to 70.1% for the comparable prior year
period.  This decrease is primarily attributable to the sale of Eland-Brandt
which if excluded from the prior year would have resulted in a 69.2% cost of
sales percentage.

  Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter were $793,000
higher than those of the comparable quarter of the prior year.  This increase
consists of a $467,000 or 3.6% increase in costs associated with the increased
sales volume and a $326,000 increase in retrospective charges for prior years
workers compensation insurance.

  The increase in net interest income for the quarter relates to the
significantly increased level of funds available for investment during the
quarter.

  The effective tax rate for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 was 38.7%
whereas the comparable quarter of fiscal year 1998 was 42.8%.  This decrease
is primarily attributable to the sale of Eland-Brandt which if excluded from
the prior year would have resulted in a 39.7% effective tax rate.



Liquidity and Capital Resources:

  Working capital decreased to $71,889,000 during the three months ended
September 30, 1998, a decrease of $281,000 from June 30, 1998.  The ratio of
current assets to current liabilities is currently 4.2 as compared to 4.7 as
of the beginning of the year.  

  The Company's projected capital expenditures for fiscal 1999 and related
financing remain unchanged from those described in the June 30, 1998 Annual
Report.  The Company's line of credit remains unchanged from that noted in the
June 30, 1998 Annual Report to Shareholders.
