Variety u Uses.
y might seem that q Wheelbarrow
vas very simple thing. but wheels
bafrows are made In many different
styles and for . wide variety Of uses.
Wheelbarrows are made OF wood, Of
Iron, and Of steel. Much the greater
number are made Of wood, but the
number Of metal wheelharrows' used
y all the time growing, and among
these the proportion Of steel wheel
goarrows is constantly Increasing. The
Wheelbarrows Of which the greatest
number are sold are Of the kinds used
by contractors on canal and railroad
work. Next to these I'm numbers
sold are the wheelbatrows made
Tor mining uses and after n them
come the vheelbarrows made for farm
purposes. And there are wheelharrows
especially made for sawdust. for oys-
ters, for sand, and for stone; wheel
barrowa tor chemical works, and wheel
balrows made to carry leaves In, and
wheelbarrows for green brick and for
dry brick, and wheelbarrows for malt,
ana for corn, and for slaves or bark,
ana wheelbarrows for pig metal, and
for coke, and for mortar. Most Wheel
barrows have but one wheel, but some
are made with two wheels, and some
with three, and some with four; and
there are wheelbarrows that are made
with springs; and there are some kinds
Of stone barrows that are made with
out legs. Many Of the regular styles Of
wheelbarrows are made in various
sizes, and wheelbarrows are also made
for special uses. A great many thou
sands Of wheelbarrows are used in this
country and other thousands are ex-
ported. The United States send wheel
barrows to all the spanish-American
countries and to South Africa and AUS
