A: Inventors and Builders of Cotton Machinery There have been periods when this establishment was par tially engaged in building other kinds of machinery, such as locomotives and printing presses, although its principal product has always been Cotton Machinery. This varied experience in widely different but important lines has been a source of much advantage to us in the education and training of our men, as well as in the discovery of improved methods of doing work. The extreme accuracy required, especially in the construction of printing presses, with the rigid inspection enforced, has devel Oped greater skill and a higher standard of workmanship than would naturally be acquired in building only Cotton Machinery. Since the death of Mr. Mason, in 1883, the management has been in the hands of those who were associated with him for a long time, and steady progress has been kept up in the march of improvement in all directions. New patterns, of modern designs, have been produced in the old lines of Spinning Frames, Mules and Looms in great variety, and new lines have been added, notably Revolving Flat Cards, Drawing Frames, Combers, Sliver Lap Machines and Ribbon Lap Machines, all embodying the best modern ideas. Each of these machines is the fruit of special study, long experience, the best mechanical talent, and a liberal expenditure of money, in designing, constructing, and experi menting; and the success which has attended their actual mill practice is the gratifying result of our earnest efforts.
