For example. some New York capitalists in

The Fairbanks STANDARD Scales-Both in
tic State Fair Fgeeport, and at the National Fair
in his city, the Faibanl;9 Standard Scales MUM
taiE. 81 thnr prestige won in over quarter Of
century OF experience, and bore away all the
prizes where there were competitors. Messrs
Fairbanks d Greenleaf, from their esta bshment
in Burch's building, on the corner of Lake street
and Wabash Avenue gave to their department al
these Fairs an attraction which drew crowds of
visitors curious to look through the mutiform list
Of weighing appliances, from the railroad track
scales to the letter balances all the production of
the ST. Anthony Works, and their branch New
York Mandatory. In all cases they won the blue
ribbons and medals to match and after tests, ap-
piled much more rigidly and ntellgentIy than has
become too common i'll these exhibitions
There is one point in this which all manufac,
turers, Of every grade, will do we'll to profit by.
1t is the wisdom Of the Messrs. Fairbanks in
" keeping up their standard" There has been
with them no such thing falling back on a repu-
tation already made. Every scale must bear the
identical accuracy Of its predecessor and not palm
yiously gained Manufacturers are too prone TO
lower their mark when success has given them the
temptation to Incidence and inattention For this
reason blue ribbons and first premiums following a
than an empty formality, to-wit: that the skill
which won still guards u splendid reputation

SORGHUM SYRUP.--Very many who had
their doubts, that an excellent article of syrup
can be made from the Chinese sugar cane, had
their misgivings entirely removed,in witnessing
tie process Of making syrup on the National
Fair grounds at Chicago. The juice of the cane
was taken from the mill, put into one of Cook )
Sugar Evaporators, and speedily converted in
to a clear and desirable syrup. Cooks Sugar
Eyaporator is manufactured at Mansfield, Ohio,
and appears to be admirably adapted to the use
for which it is designed
