ANOTHER INDUSTRY.
The Hondrirk Manufacturing Com
pany to Make Bicycle Spoke.
The manufacture of bicycle spoken
will be another Industry which the
Hemlrlck Manufacturing company will
enKuxe In, and as the article made by
them possesses many merits it will
undoubtedly be In great demand.
The metal used in the spokes is tha
patented metal used in the Pendleton
Dobbin works. The Pendleton company
have control of this article and its qual
ities especially adapt it for use In bi
cycles, one great advantage Is that al
though the metal is bright and pre
sents much the same appearance as
Dickie plate, yet It will not rust no
matter how much It Is left In the wet.
This, therefore, will be a boon to rid
ers who have to devote much time In
keeping their wheels In good shape.
When once fairly Introduced the spokes
should meet with ready sale.
