NJIEI'ERB, FHOTO-LIYHOGRAPNER. WASHINGTON D c UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.-
SUSAN M. HIBBARD, OF GENEVA LAKE, WISCONSIN, ASSIGNOR TO CATH- ARINE NICHOLS, EMELINE C. WEBSTER, AND FRANCIS S. EASTMAN, OF
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN FEATHER DUSTERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. l 77,939, dated May 30, 1876; application filed November 13, 1874. 7
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, SUSAN M. HIBBARD, of Geneva Lake, in the county of Walworth and State of Wisconsin, have invented new and useful Improvements in Feather Dusters, of
\ which'the following is a full description, reference being had to the accompanying drawi :gs, in which- Figure 1 is an elevation of afeather duster, and Fig. 2 a view of the inside of a feather with the stem partly split or cut away.
Heretofore it has been found impracticable, in manufacturing feather dusters and similar HI'fiGiGS tO use the strong, stiff feathers of the wings and tails of turkeys, geese, &c., for, owing to the stiffness of the stems and the liability of 'such feathers to be broken orpermanently bent, they soon become Worthless.
The object of my invention is to overcome these difficulties; and its nature consists in the improvement of feather dusters as an article. of manufacture, by making them of feathers split as hereinafter described.
In the drawings, A represents the fiberof the tail-feather of a turkey; B, the stem, and C the portion to be removed, which is shown partly cut away in Fig. 2.
ble, and can be bent in any direction without Q breaking; and it enables me to'make feather dnsters from feathers which have heretofore, owing to their stiffness, been worthless for that purpose.
When these prepared feathers are made into dusters, as shown in Fig. 1, they are Wound upon .and fastened to the handle in the usual way.
.What I claim as new is as follows:
As an improved article of manufacture, a feather duster having the stems of the. feathers split longitudinally, and a part thereof severed from the remaining part, substantially as specified.
SUSAN M. HIBBARD.
