ENGINES. 



Yes, we build a few. We have, in connection witli our 

 large bee-plant, a first-class, well-equipped macliine-shop, 

 in which we build all kinds of bee-liive maclnnery, saw-man- 

 drels, saw-tables, dovetalling-machines, foundation-mills, 

 extractor-gearings, etc., and, when our men have notlnng 

 else to do, engines. These are upright in style, and econo- 

 mize Hoor space. Tliey are built under tlie special supervi- 

 sion of an expert machinist of many years' expeiience. The 

 rods are all of finished steel. Tlie cross heads and slides are 

 of the substantial locomotive style. The cylinders are 

 lagged with Russia iron, and are brass-b )und. The boxes 

 arc babliitted, and csiii l)e easily taken up for wear. The 

 piston - iiead is provided witli two expansion - rings. The 

 bright parts shine like a dollar. The governor is a Waters, 

 substantial and relial)le. We have three of these engines 

 running in our works. One has been running two > ears, 

 with excellent results. Making them, as we do, during our 

 dull sea.son, they ate immeasurably superior to tlie ordinary 

 engines of their kind, and the price is low, consideiing tlie 

 veiy fine quality of the work. Price of the 2>4-horse-power 

 engine, governor and govener-belt, all ready to attacli to a 

 boiler. $75; 5 h. p., $100; ".'A h. p., $13.5; 10 h. p., $150. These 

 prices are net, although we will make the usual disruunt for 

 cash. If you want a thoroughly well-made engine, you can 

 not do better than \o select one of these, providing the 

 range of power is within what you need. While we com- 

 pete in quality of workmanship we can not compete in price 

 with some of the cheap engines on the market.
