A Basket-Making Machine Which Is
Wonder.


From the Philadelphia Record
In the summer of 1893 Ottmar Mergen-
thaler, the inventor of the linotype ma
chine, who died in Baltimore the other
day. spent two days at gainesville, O.,
studying the working of a basket ma
chine, which he afterward modified and
improved. and which was the last work
completed just before his death This
machine as completed is as much a revo-
luton in basket making as the linotype
has proven to be in type-setting Where
an expert operator formerly produced 300
grape baskets daily by hand, the same OPP
orator with the machine, with greater
ease, can now produce 1900 baskets daily,
and these machine made baskets are said
to be superior in every way to the hand
made article.
The machine Is of one horse power. and
can easily be attended by girl, its ca
pacity being the same as that of twelve
hand operators. 1t is practically a self
feeding machine as the supplies of bot
toms, strips for the sides and bands are
placed in stocks near enough for the won
derful iron hands to reach out and seize.
and while one watches these Wonderful
hands reach out for the material the
basket is finished, and the machine, as IL
were holds it's breath or rather its hands,
for a second. while the basket is delivered,
when It Immediately begins again its Won
derful performance.

been very indignant ''If the story could

production is said to be a realization that
Mr. Davis has dreamed about and hoped
for with longing which only one of his
