pals, says the writer, 1t may be
noted thai IN the oaliN days OF The
sewing machine llG patents were
granted for improvements thereon
in single year; and out of the
2 $50 patents ISSUED in the year
1897, l52 were for improved cotton
gins and presses, l6i for improve
ments on the steam engine, aud l9N
for novel devices relating TO rail
roads ana improvements IN the
rolling stock. In the year ISIS,
thrco years after the publication Of
this paper was c9'amenccd, but 66D
patents were granted; but under
the stimulus OF publishing those in,
Nentions as they were patented, ten
years later, in 1858, the number had
increased sixfold, reaching 3,7lG,
while up TO January |, 1880, as al
ready stated, the aggregate OF pat
ents issued amounted 10 lT457
SINGS that time and up 10 the pres
