Famnous Industries To the passing traveller, and to many of its citizens, little is known of the colourful history of this village of some one thousand souls which has been the birthplace of at least two industries whose products have become popular the world over. The Massey-Harris-Ferguson Company Limited, manufacturers of farm implements, and the Northrop & Lyman Co., well known pharmaceutical f irm both of which were established in this village before its incorporation 100 years ago. Back in 1840, Daniel Massey, who had corne to Newcastle district as a boy, and had farmad just east of the village on the shores of Lake Ontario, set up a small machine shop on his farmn to repair his own and bis neighbours primitive farm implement, when agricultural implements were imported from the U.S.A. an sold. Believing thesa implamants could be made hera at a lower cost than importîng them, Daniel Massey purchased a foundry in the village and began tha manufacture of farm machinerv in 1847 in an unpretcntious oa-storey stru~cture. Thus Canada's farni machinery industry was born, right here in this village. Masser Protress To 1849 larger shops wera erected in the centre of the village and in 1852 upon bis father's retirement, Hart A. Massey becama the sala proprietar, namingz the business H. A. Masseyv Company. Ovar the yaars the industry axpanded and new and battar machines ware bùilt until in 1867 Massey machines won great honours at the Tnternational Exhibition in Paris, France, and Emparor Napolcon III purchased a Wood's mower made in this Canadian village and ordered that nana but Wood's patented Dr. Norman Allin, Centra machinery be used on the Imperial Farms.
