n first premiums at every Fair where it has
been exhibited. At the South Western Indiana
District Fair held here october. 1853, there were
but two premiums offered for cooking stoves-one for
the best wood cooking stove and one for the best coal
cooking stove. The Economist took the FIRST
PREMIUM FOR THE BEST LOOKING STOVE
FOR WOOD. Rocker, KIusman & Co took the frst
premium for their cooking stove for coal No other
premiums were offered. The large silver medal was
awarded to the Economist at the New York State
Fair and the first premium at the United States
Fair held at Chicago and twelve other State and
County Fairs in 1893.
In no branch Of mechanical art has there
been a more apparent advance than in the man
ufacture Of stoves. It is but few years since
the very name a novelty, representing a
huge, shapeless structure, almost as devoid Of
ornament, These have gradually given place
TO patterns of grace and utility until the varetes
markets present have almost exhausted
the vocabulary of names; and the different phases
the metal is made to assume, would astonish Old
Vulcan himself. In style and finish, the improve
ment has been real, leaving nothing to be desired
that point, but the competition in price,
to which they have been subjected, has deprived
them of many Of the more substantial qualities
desirable This seems more especially TO nave beeI,
the case in reference TO cook stoves-an article Of
domestic economy that has more 10 do with scolding
wives and crotchety servants than most people i'm
agine. The public have long sought an improve.
in this article and We believe are ready to pay
any reasonable price for cooking stove If il only
possesses the merits Of size, weight convenience,
durability, economy and perfection OF manuactur-.
These qualities seem TO be possessed most fully in
the Econ mist--a stove, perfected and brought
out the past season, by Messrs TreadweI Perry
& Norton. of Albany. We heard 30 much Of this
stove, ,,ad it looked much ike stove intended
for use, that concluded to try them, ard the
result Of the experiment couvinccs US that the
proDrletors In their determination to make the bssk

Economist possessing all the merits above Gnu
IneTated-as the great stove OF the day-far IN ad-
Of anything ever attempted in the line Of
stoves, perfect il all its appointments, and true e.
its name IN durability and toe use Of fuel. Among
the many conveniences attached TO tt, may DO men
toned a large oven, with hooks arranged, for sus-
pending meats while roasting. copper water

closet, broiing hearth, dc, &c. The brouins
hearth is of the most noticeable features Of ms
reinarkabIe stove. There never has BEEN 20 our
knowledge any broiling xture that was really lat

upon broiIing, ecitiug some valuable iact, and re-

hi stove which has been secured by letters patont
and IA one OF the admirable things OF the Kind
Nc ever saw-broiling without smoke, and Keeping
the Goals in a constant glow. We are always glad
10 do Justice to mechanical improvements, and es-
