Ball Bearings on the Farm.

It is probably a safe pdhflm that ah manufacturers of horrestiag —achingly will eventually adopt ball hearings wherever it is posable to use them. In U9l the Deering Harvester Company as Chicago equipped all their machine! with bail and roller bearings, and the great popularity of the ides led other manufacturers to experiment with several styles of roller bearings, hoping to apply them to their machines without appearing to imitate the originators too closely. The application of ball bearings is more costly, but popular demand will yet force all competitors to follow the lead of the Deering Company.
