Show Another Excellent Plant ! Schaub Machine Co. Doing Fine Class of Work and Prospering Nicely. Speaking of new Industries or growing grow-ing concerns In Logan, the Schaub Machine Co., In the Wilkinson build-lug build-lug on First West street, Is worthy no little favorable comment Tills concern Is of comparative recent origin or-igin but of rather extensive; scope and doing a business of no lltjle magnitude magni-tude The tlrm handles the verv highest high-est trade of machine work, the class that has heretofoie gone to Salt Lake, deliver and San Francisco houses, and is tilling a long felt want. Good Equipment. While all the machinery to be Installed In-stalled has not yet reached Logan on aceou'it of eastern manufacturers being be-ing so far behind with orders, a eiy excellent equipment Is now- on hand and the work .room presents a most inlet est lug appearance. An "Universal" milling machine, the latest of its kind, and capable of doing a most varied lot work, enables the shop to turn out work wonderful wonder-ful In its chaiacter. On this can be cut f i om steel or brass any sled gear wheel absolutely pel feet In construction. construc-tion. This Is the only machine of Its kind In the state, with the single exception ex-ception of one at Silver Ilros. in Salt Lake, and It has enabled the Schaubs to do very dllllcult repair work for the Logan Knitting factories, the Tcllu-ride Tcllu-ride and city power plants, Logan sugar factory, and other large concerns using intricate machinery. .Machines capable of boring in steel any sl.ed hole from that of a needle to a foot in diameter is another time saer and decidedly inteicstlng when at work. A 15 ton power press for stamping purposes and the straightening of bent shafts, band saw for wood work, turning lathes of dltTcient sizes, and a power hack saw all driven by a seven horse power motor complete the present pre-sent equipment. Thiu hack saw Is a simple little ar-i ar-i rangement that saws readily through any thickness of steel. A bar of steel four Inches in diameter fastened with clamps Is sawed In two in less than thirty minutes and the operation requires re-quires no attention. Expert in Charge. The shop Is In charge of Jacob Schaub, of "Penny Camera" fame, and he is undoubtedly a genius of the llrsl order. Mr. Schaub has done a number of exceptionally tine pieces of work requiring technical skill, and is the admiration of prominent manufacturers manu-facturers who have continually had to send to other cities for repairs. Mr. Schaub Is of an lnventlc turn of mind and has a number of patents. He guarantees to duplicate any piece i of machinery that his equipment will enable him to handle and this cm-braces cm-braces anything from fixing a pair of sclssois to an automobile or the best piece of machinery at the Tellurldc plant. Mr. Schaub Is In charge of the various vari-ous adding machines in ttic banks and I court houses of this north country, thee In-itiuments being about the most Intricate on the market. Result of Failure. It will be remembered that Mr. Schaub was the Inventor of a penny cameia, and that a local company was! organli'd here a year or so ago to ex-1 plolt tills and a patent plat'e holder The Kastinancamcra trust got In Its. work, and thougli Mr Sehniib's patei 1 1 holdei Is the best thing of Its kind i ever piodueed, he Is unable to get lt on the market. j Asa lcsult the company woundup.

Tlieie Is no longer the necessity ne-cessity Tor a great delay in securing machinery from other points and many dollars are saved. It Is to be hoped that the business will continue to grow until it employs many skilled mechanics. |
