Mr. Albia Eubank gasoline pump; and Mr. Sam Bridgewater's carbide lighting plant, both from fertile Adair County Minds of 90 years ago - 1922

By Jim

Since this article: Jim: Patent pending: some Adair County inventors and inventions, appeared on CM a year or so ago, two more Adair County inventors and their inventions have come to light.

In August, 1922 came the report that Mr. Albia Eubank of Columbia had patented "a liquid dispensing tank, especially for gasoline," the notable features being that the said tank was "free from pumps and float valves." He had been at the patent office in Washington, D.C., the previous week "and made application for a pattern" with high hopes of it going through, "as the force in the [patent] office were highly pleased with it."
