The shops of Mesrs Hoard are unpre'eodisg in
ou'"a'd appearance but, interorly, are arranged 10
The most convenient manner 10 facilitate work, which
nearly oil done by pecework; 50 that every exeron
made by aborsr is for his benefit. They make
rom one-borse power to thirty = thirteen sizes OF
ergin,s-at ching less than $l00 per hove-power
| for all above the smallest sizes.
One arrangement Of the workmens benches IN this
shop is worthy the attention Of all Others. They arc
set at q half right angle with the walls, by whih
means the light falls upon the work without shadow If
the wCfkmans back is 10 the window. and thus he
avoids the necessity Of facing the light the glare of

than in the volume of 4" Transactions both to the
manufacturers and the farmers and the latter need o
be told that the day has come when no good farmer
can ro.siblit, afford to do without steamengne to
thrash and shell and grind his gram TO cut his nay

his water, drive his churn, and, above ALL chop MA
fire wood al the door.
So much for steam engines. The next most import

a continual improvement; but the most important OF
