THE OHIO BRASS COMPANY, Mansfield, O., report a large number of initial orders for the reversible and adjustable track brush holders, and steel wire track brooms, which have been followed almost in every case by larger ones. In many instances the entire equipment of motor cars has been provided with these. Among the larger roads using them are the Syracuse St. Ry., Syracuse, N. Y.; the Middletown-Goshen Traction Co., Middletown, N. Y.; the Cumberland Electric Ry., Cumberland, Md.; the Burlington Electric Ry., Burlington, Iowa; the Steinway Ry., Long Island City, N. Y.; the Central Electric Ry., Peoria, Ill. The ease with which these holders can be manipulated, and the saving in consequence in the wear on the track brooms, is a strong recommendation in their favor. Every operator of a street railway company, which requires a device of this sort, should investigate these before placing his order.
