The Eev. William H. Meyers Of this
city. has recently been granted letters ~
patent on a pneumatic cotton picker for
picking cotton out of the bolls in the field.
This is the only machine for this purpose
in existence. and will supply long-felt
want and be of ineStimahie value to both
the lucky inventor and the cotton raisers
Of the South. Mr.. Meyers has ALREADY
sold Il one-fourth interest III his patent
to wealthy mill, owner. His machine
when in operation will sit on an ordinary
farm wagon and Dc furnished power hy
a light gasoiene engine. and will pick tn.
cotton from three rows at a time AS fast
as the team will walk, and dump the
picked cotton into a second wagon, which
follows Immediately after the one on
which the machine is hauled.
II is estimated that the electrical or
gan OF Il lively electric fish would give Il
diS,harge OF about NO volts.
