So, it is tru6 that in- our shops ordinary labor will riot ; sufficeV is natural that such men-will contribute improvements year after year.' Here'aire some of the most recent ones. The imitation of them is a tribute to their worth X ."r "..".' ' ' j- . . Spiral Seed Elevator , We put outNand tested last, season a neV departure in, see elevators. It is a screw corureybr that takes thef place in bne-storygins pf the troublesome bucket elevator. We do away with chain. and buckets, and nearly forty parts. ; We substitute for tnem an- eleyatbr that has but eight. It is impossible for it to get out of order. 4 Seed may be carried in four different directions, and up any angle desired. ; It also contains within itself means for driving the horizontal conveyor at the top that leads to the seed house and seed bins. s , - Belt Driven Roll Carrier This Belt Driven Roll Carrier; or Stirrer, prevents the breaking of the roll, it allows ginning jto; begin-before the rolljs formed. The sample is improved by running" a looser roll than can'ppssibly be run by a Gin not so equipped. , Metal Construction Our 12-inch and double-ribbed Huller Gins are now made with metal construction, and we use a solid cast iron frame for' supporting the raov- ing parts. We use metal breasts instead of wood. They are equipped : with. ring piling boxes, protected at both ends from dust and dirt, or, when so ordered, we furnish them with ball bearing Similarly protected. They are the heaviest Gins built. " y ' . The Angle Drive The Angle Drive for two-story gins isone of the many Liddell imprpve mentsi It is called the Angle Drive because the belts are run off to the line shaft on the floor below, at an asy. angle. They disappear through the floor at : the, Gin, and connect with the line shaft along, the wall: This leayes;the lbwe.r:floor practically. clear for the use of the, operators., . . and for thV ston 'i '- .'J.' v V - " Liddell Feeder Drive Our Feeder Drive dispenses with all cog gearswalking beams, and complicated! methods of adjustment. . We substitute for them a slow running worm drive. It has but few, parts, and they are run in oil in an enclosed case. Dirt and dust are excluded. ' . v Let Our Service Department Help LiddeirCompany has been established nearly forty years. There are gins in nearly every, cotton state the product of our plant. We have made and sold more. than 6,000 cotton presses, and an equal number of engines. We have, built what we : beljeve to be the biggest ginnery in North Carolina---12 gins i in one house. j . , . Our ehgineers have had a wealth of experience in designing and plan ning gin houses. Their. aid is ypurs for the asking in installing new, equipment. Don't be satisfied with any Gin that does not contain these advantages. Write for our catalog and full information, which will be sent free upon request. " LIDDELL COMPANY Box LP CHARLOTTE, N.
