The result Of the Dynamometer trial
is shnwn in the fnllnuinn fahle

On many other fields Of trial, this ma
chine has fully sustained the success it
merits.
The shops used by this firm at the
present time, are the same that they first
occupied with the exception of ware
house, one story high and fifty by one
hundred feet in area, which was built in
1873. In point Of location, their shops
are most convenient; fronting on Null
bury street, directly opposite the passen-
ger and freight depots Of the P. F. W. &
c. Ry.; in looking from the cars, at the
continuous line Of shops which lie ada
cent to the railroad, the traveller is sure
to note the establishment of c. Russell
& Co. as one of the most commanding;
the large main building, which fronts to
the railway. covers ground area Of 225
by 50 feet, and besides large basement
for storage purposes, has three large
roomy stories, in which are located three
important departments; on the first floor
is the iron finishing room, under the
foremanship Of H. Cox, in which are
employed fifty hands. James Wells,
foreman of the wood departments, also
occupies a part Of this building with
twenty hands; on the third floor is the
paint shop, which employs at the present
time, fourteen hands, under the foreman
ship Of L. L Mcclure. South Of the
main shop is a large wing, 200 by 90
feet, varying in height from one to two
stories; another wing, zoo by 40 feet, and
one -four is occupied as blacksmith
shop and engine room. In their first
wing is the moulding department, super
intended by Harrison Shanafelt, and
employing thirty hands. E. Elton is
foreman Of the blacksmith departm mt,
and has under his charge, twenty.on
hands; in connection with these depart
ments are teamsters, laborers and others,
aggregating about $50 hands employed
by this company.
As may be said Of all manufacturing
companies in Canton, their men are re-
liable, industrious and worthy citizens,
and as a class, il telligent as any class Of
citizens we have. Since the foundation
Of these works, about
SIX THOUSAND
Of the Peerless machines have been
made and disposed Of, and they have
met with such flattering success, that the
company have made preparations to
contract $500 Of them for the coming
season Of 1875.
Their annual labor account reached
the considerable sum Of $4,000. while
the annual amount Of business transact
ed, has reached about 46oo,ooo The
constituted value Of their shops, machin-
cry, and tools, is S7oo, 600. and their full
