Improved milking machines appeared around 1883 from other farmers such as James P. Martin. [6] However, it was not until Carl Gustav de Laval, a Swedish engineer, that the first commercially successful milking machine was designed. It was a culmination of Carl Gustav de Laval and Anna Baldwin's inventions that led to the modern dairy farming ...

These new surroundings hastened the development of an existing idea: an adding machine. His new job gave him the opportunity to build his prototype. Accuracy was the foundation of his work. He made his design drawings on metal plates to prevent distortion. Burroughs filed his first patent for the invention of a "calculating machine" in 1885. It ...
Crossword clues are generally consistent with the solutions. For instance, clues and their solutions should always agree in tense, number, and degree. [6] If a clue is in the past tense, so is the answer: thus "Traveled on horseback" would be a valid clue for the solution RODE, but not for RIDE.
