The Thimble Skeins are nuule of select iron and weigh from 4 to 25 pounds per spt inure than any others made, and therefore do not break. sth. T e Skeins are set by a patent skein setter, which take* exact pattern of the inside of the skein to which the axle is to be fitted, thereby making a true fit, and a perfect running wagon 61 It It is the only wagon in which the Slope-Shoulder Spike is used, hence they have the best wheel, which is actually the foundation of the wagon, and should be earefally examined by persons purchasing 7th The huh* are all bored true, then the Skein boxes are turned to fit oa an iren lathe, and are then pressed into the hub bv hydraulic pressure, thereby insuring a perfect and tight fit, preventing the box from ev<»r working loose, or showing oil or water to soak in between the box and the bub, as is the case in most makes of wagons where the boxing is wedged in.
