The maohinein question could be worked by a traction engine or by a Bteam engine. After an operation lasting uninterruptedly for an hour and a half.ithe lamb experimented upon emerged from the hands of tha shearer in rather a dawaged condition, After this result there does not appear to be much prospect of' ' the maohine being introduced into Germany. ~
