Some definite idea Of the growth Of
the bicycle business In this country may
be gained from the fact that whereas
the total number Of bicycle manufacto-
ries in the United States was but six In
1885, with an output Of only 1000
wheels, and in 1890 but II, with an
output Of 10000, at the present time
there are 1873 factories, which viii make
an aggregate Of nearly or quite half a
million machines this year. The IN
crease in the last five years has been
nothing short Of marvellous, and it is
probable that the next five years viii
