Some of their advantages are
I.—Economy in Price; to e extent of from 25 to 40 per
cent.

II: Economy in :per and Labour ;—only the one hun-
dredth part of the gilts is required to be lifted; one-half of
the time occupied th weighing is entirely saved.

in Space;-they haie only one Platform or
Scale ; no fixtures are required for suspension ; no room is oc-
cupied by weights.
IV.—Economy in Annual Expense ;—they require less pe-
riodical adjustment ; the centres are detached from their
bearings, and of course exempt from wear, except at the mo-
ment of ascertaining the weight.
As a Weigh-bridge for weighing Wagons on common roads,
and for Trucks or Wagons on Railways, this Machine is pe.
culiarly adapted. It may be fixed, if required, in a pit only
fifteen inches deep ; it occupies only half the usual space in
the office; it is more exact in its indications than any of the
old kinds of Weigh-bridges. The celebrity of

FAIRBANKS'

MACHIgES,

POOLEY'S MANUFACTURE

has induced many imitations, having a professed and specious
resemblance, at a low price. To guard the Public from imposi
tion, and the invention from losing its high standing by the
hands of incompetent makers,
THE TRUE MACHINE

IS NOW OFFERED AT PRICES FULLY AS LOW AS THE
IMITATION,
Thus placing it within the reach of every Trader.
MESSRS. POOLEY AND SON

are Makers to the Hon. Board of Ordnance, and by special
appointment to the London and North-Western, the Midland,
and other leading Railway Companies.
Ironmongers and the Trade supplied on liberal terms.

A SAVING OF THIRTY PER CENT
