BRANDON SCALE COMPANY The
Brandon Scale Company made large
and splendid exhibition at the recent
State Fair, st. Johnsbury, of the several
varieties of scales manufactured at their
works in Brandon. 1t was an exhibition
entirely worthy of them and of Vermont.
They expected to come in competition
with the Fairbanks manufacture, the
State Fair being held in the town of their
manufacture, and it was disappointment
to the officers of the Society, as we'll as
the Brandon Manufacturing Company,
that they did not come into honorable
competition. Aside from the company
having the largest number of articles
in any one class, their goods, boxed, ill
ing three freight cars. The variety and
excellence of the display made up in
measure for the absence of competition.
These scales attracted large crowds OF
examiners, and in fact it is not believed
that person entered the grounds, with
out giving them an examination and
their several merits were particularly
and courteousIy pointed out by the sew
eral persons having them in charge. The
committee on the class, after several
hours of thorough examination and test,
one of whomiwss a thoroughly practical
mechanic, and himself one of the fore
most inventors, made the following re-
port:
The Brandon Nanagac!utng Company,

lar, variety of Howe's Standard Scales,
