&T It is peril aps a question as to who stands second 
among makers of reed organs In this country, but 
there is no difficulty In deciding who Is first. By 
general acquiescence. this position is conceded to 
the Mason A Hamlin Organ Co.; and evon competing 
manufacturers are in most canes satisfied to claim 
that their productions equal the organs made by this 
Company. They enjoy like nre-emincnro tn the ex¬ 
tern. of 'their business, their production nnd sales 
during the last year having been very much greater 
111 a ti those of any other maker—probably more than 
twice as great. What their sale* would hare been, 
could tluur production have been Increased, cannot 
be known: for they have always been huudrods of
