The McFarlane, Thompson & Anderson Dunbar Shingle Machine a record breaker in the west—(New Whatcom Blade, Washington State). The following may be of interest to mill operatives and others ; it is we believe the best six day record ever made on this class of machine—a Dunbar upright ; the bolts were taken as they came from the woods, without selection, and were a good average quality. This remarkable run was accomp- lished last week at the George A. Cooper mill, Chuckanut siding : Total cut for six days, 2 shifts of 10 hours each per day, 394,000 eighteen inch shingles. In the day shift, Harry A. Edison, sawyer, cut 218,000, an average cut of 36^ thousand, and the night shift, Levi Loaf, sawyer cut (176,000, an average of 29^ thousand of eighteen inch shingles per day. Campbellton, , Febuaryt 13th, 1896. Messrs. McFarlane, Thompson & Anderson, Gentlemen,—I have been from home and only received yours of the 8th this morning. My opinion ot the Dunbar Machine is as follows : I have been using the Dunbar Shingle Machine of your manufacture for these past ten years, and have found them most satisfactory machines,in regard to quality of work, quantity of shingles that can be sawn, and freedom from repairs. I have compared your machne with other makes and prefer yours to any others. All experienced shingle sawyers prefer your machine to work on,to those of other .makes
