SOLE MAKERS tiiniii THE PATENT.
Some of their advantages are-
-I.—Economy in Price; to the extent of from 25 to 40 per
cent.

ll.—Economy in Time and Labour ;—only the one hun-
dredth part of the weights is required to be lifted; one-half of
the time occupied in weighing is entirely saved.
111,—Economy in Space ;—they have only one Platform or
Scale; no fixtures are required for suspension; no room is oc-
cupied by weights.

IV.—tconoiny 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' MACHINES,

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,
