| TEXT | His inventions and agricultural improvements have been previously noticed, has also an extensive establishment in Canton for the manufacture of what is now kaown as "Ball's New American Harvester." The buildings are mostly of brick, very substantially constructed, and have an aggregate area of nearly sixty thousand square feet. The rooms, of which there are some seventeen in number, are equipped with machines and tools of the best description, with capacity for turning out six thousand machines per annum. The most careful supervision is exercised in all parts of the work; skilful mechanics and the best materials only are employed, and the result is a finely finished machine, which has attained extraordinary popularity. As Ball's Harvester is manufactured in several other places in the United States under license from the inventor, whose patent revenue amounts to a large sura annually, it is believed that fully ten thousand were made in the United States in 1865. |
