District Fair, held here October, 1859, there
but two premiums offered for cooking stoVesone for
the best wood cooking and for the best coal

bsen a more apparent advance than in the man
ufacturo of stoves. IL is but IA few years since
the very, name was a novelty, representing
hinge, shapeless structure, almost devoid OF
ornament, These have gradually given place
to patterns of grace aud utility until the Varieties
markets now present have almost exhausted
the vocabulary of names; and the different phases
the metal il made TO assnc would astonish old
Vulcan himself In style and finish, the improve
ment has been real, leaving nothing TO be desired
on that point bnt the severe competition in price,
to wlfoh they have been subjected has deprived
them of many of the more substantial qualities
desirable This seems more especially TO have oeen
the case in reference 10 cook stoVes-an article OF
domestic economy that has more TO do with seeiaihB
wives and cFocheIy servants than most people in
agine. The public have long sought an improve
nent in this article and we believe are ready 10 pay
any reasonable price for cooking stove, if IL only
possesses the merits Of size, weight convenience,
durability, ecAOmy and perfection of manufacture.

result of tho experiment cOnyinces us that the
prOprieters, in their determination to make the bet

stoves poroct in all its appointments, and true 20
its n,Ius durability and the of fuel. Among
the nv iy conyeiiiences attached TO it, may lie mem

hearth il of the most noticeable features Of this
remarkable stove. There never has been, to our
knowledge, any broiling fixture that was really sat

upon broiling, elciting some valuable facts, aud re-

this which has been secured by letters patent
and is one of the most admirable things of the kind
We ever saw-broing without smoke, and keeping

10 do Justice to mechanical improvements and es-
peeally such contribute largely 20 the general
