MILKING MACHINE HISTORY.
The first milkiing machine is recorded 100 years ago, since when at least 100 different machines have appeared. In spite of Automatic releasers, and innumerable devices de- . signed to overcome the dangerous stress on the cows, every machine " failed absolutely. It - remained for Gillies, a Victorian farmer, to patent, 5 years ago, the principle of inletting air in like manner to the calf, and thus produced the "Lawrence - KennedyGillies," the first successful milker. One machine having now proved successful will naturally produce imitators, but past history proves their chance of success is one in 100.
