Crosky's [sic] Croskey's Insulator Machine


 

For two years previous to the death of John H. Crosky [sic] Croskey, which occurred about a month ago, Mr. Crosky [sic] Croskey had been devoting his time to evolving a machine for the manufacture of insulators, work being conducted at the experimental plant of the H. L. Dixon Co. at Carnegie, Pa. The illness and death of the inventor caused the machine to be lost sight of temporarily, but since that time the Carnegie plant has been visited by a number of people, some of whom seem to be taking quite a lively interest in the invention, which is now for sale since those who own it are not practical glass makers and are desirous of disposing of the machine and patents. Practical people who witnessed this machine in operation previous to the death of Mr. Crosky [sic] Croskey were favorably impressed with its operations, many of them being of the opinion that it embodied features of more than ordinary merit.
