Miscellaneous  Implements  Exhibited  at  Liverpool , 1910.  201 
No.  434. — Chaff  Cutter , the  “ Phoenix."  Price  51. — Manu- 
factured by  W.  Richards  & Son,  Phoenix  Foundry,  Leicester, 
and  exhibited  by  J.  Y.  Collyer,  Forest  Implement  Works, 
Desford,  Leicester.  Instead  of  the  usual  feed  rolls  the  material 
is  fed  forward  by  a sliding  open  top  box  having  a reciprocating 
motion  ; at  the  termination  of  its  travel  towards  the  knife 
a presser  plate  descends  and  holds  the  material  firmly  and 
tightly  compressed  whilst  being  cut  off,  the  reciprocating  box 
sliding  back  meanwhile,  so  as  to  be  ready  for  the  next  stroke. 
The  feed  is  readily  altered  from  £ in.  to  6 in.  The  absence 
of  the  usual  tooth  feed  rolls  prevents  any  possibility  of  the 
hand  of.  the  operator  being  drawn  in  and  mangled.  We 
had  the  machine  thoroughly  tested  with  wet  straw,  and  it 
appeared  to  work  well  and  cleanly.

Works,  Salford,  Manchester.  A very  neat  eccentric  handle
