WE illustrate on this pane an Extra Heavy Planer and Mat- cher, manufactured hy the Egan Company, Cincinnati, Ohio. It is one of the beat &rd most improved machines of its kind made, and the detail of i s construction for strength, strain and convenience, is of the most improved and advanced ideas for building first-class machines. All the latest points are embodied, and many new advantages specially peculiar to our machine, and covered by our exclusive patents. The Frame is cast plain, and is thoroughly braced and ribbed on the inside, giving great strength and presenting a very smooth and even face on the ou'side. Tne edges are gracefully curved so as to nearly double the strength of the castings. The Head is of cast steel and slotted on all four side», and the cylinder is double belted. Any kind of a knife can be placed on this he >d, as the double pressure bars on each side of knife are adjustable to or from the knife. Mouldings, patent siding, cove siding, ship lap, beading, and work of that clsss can be done on it to the best advantage. The Patent Adjustable Pressure Bars are placed on each side of knife and inside the feeding rolls, holding the lumber firmly as it is being planed. These bars are adjustable at will of operator, so as to accommodate irregular knives and allow a full clearance. The Feed is powerful and consists of four 6 inch feed ed in a superior manner; there are two changes of speed, viz : 45 and 65 feet pfr minute. The machine is of large range, planing 24 inches wid*. 6 inches thick and matching 14 inches wide. Our patent adjustable box is a very ingenious contrivance, allowing the roll to adapt itself to any bo»-H of uneven thickness, thereby bers suitable for Carriage Building," in the course of which he suggested that if a t
