One hundred years ago the United States
issued Patent No. l, to Samuel Hopkins, for
making pot and pearl ashes" Only three
patents were issued during the year 1890.

number of patents issued was 1880. The
highest number attaine1 is 433, 49,, in the
last issued for the week ending July 20, 1899.

ted States is perhaps nowhere better illus
trated than in the records Of the United
