AS an exhibit, the thresher is truly
work of art; the frame work being
Of birds-eye maple, finished in it's nat
ural color with gold leaf trimmings.
The main portion of the machine is of
selected lumber, and finished in ma

stalled in its business office model
floor show case manufactured by the
Whitehouse- Crawford company of this
city. The case was secured from To-
cal firm at cost of few dollars

houses no better equipped than the
Washington Printing company.
The case. which was manufactured
in the factory of the Whitehouse-
Crawford company, is being used for
the display of big line Of glassware
for Office use, and is an excellent piece
of work. 'Home Industry" is the mot
to of the printing establishment, and
