i for my Machine to measure Cotton
Begging and Carpeting. which the owners
of gins, and retail merchants need to save
labor and do away with the trouble OF
rolling the bagging off on the muddy
streets. and the carpets on the dirty
floor. With this machine you can measure
100 yards within five minutes time. A
boy seven years old can execute the work
easily. From the present prospect, mil
lions will be sold South.
Offers have been made for the patent
right, and to give enterprising men an op
