The exclusive agency for the sale Of this

Meigs County telegraph. [volume] (Pomeroy [Ohio]) 1848-1859, 1858-12-28
From the Daily Ptt ,burg. .Gazette
a Valuable Improvement.

That this is an era of progress no one
doubts, and one pecullarity OF modern pro
gress and improvement is the practical
tendency OF. such. We have recently been
lamentiug over the warped and twisted d
castings Of what was once (and not long
since) an excellent cooking stove. The
competition which exists between manu-
factUrers has reduced the price OF stoves
TO such extent that manufacturers have
been compelled to reduce the weight of
castings materially, and an ordinary mod
ern stove is 80 thin that the heating and
cooling process soon causes the center to
warp and sink down. When this takes
place, as all house-keepers know, The
draught OF the stove is very much i'm
paired, and il will not bake.
We have recently examined. and more
recently tested in our own kitchen, one
of Mr.. Alexander Bradley's Tropic Stoves,
with Spears patent double top improve
ment. It consist IN set of hollow center
pieces, connecting with external openings
by which openings current Of cold air is
passed through the centre pieces; the air
becomes heated in its passage, and escapes
through Numerous small holes on the
under side Of the cenler piece, thereby
preserving it from the injurious effects OF
the heat, and from warping and sinking.
1t is an ascertained fact in chemistry, that
a ton of coal producing ten thousand feet
of gas requires one hundred thousand
cubic feet of air for thorough combus.
ton. The invention of Mr.. Spear, as APP
piled by Mr.. Bradley, therefore, not only
adds materially 10 the durability of the
stove-by preserving the top casting. but j
consumes The gases emitting from the coal
by furnishing the necessary quantity o
q mospheric air, thereby saving fuel; Tho
combustion created by these jets of ali
being introduced all over the fire, creates
a flame which passes into the fues arount
the oven and produces a more intense hea
than can possibly be produced by an!
non-gas Consuming sIove. The advan
tages Of this improvement are obvious
> the preservation of the centre pieces,
great saving of fuel find much quicke
and hotter oven from the same FIRE.
Mr.. Bradley has secured the exclusiv
right 30 use this Improvement We de
sire, here. especially 10 direct public atten

ntilitarian in its character. The improve
