been exhibited. At the SOuth-W Western Indiana
District Fair, beld here October. 1852 there were
but two premiums offered for cooking stoFesone for
the wood cooking and one for the bsst coal
cooking stove. The Economist took the FIRST
PREMIUM FOR TIE BEST LOOKING STOVE
FOR WOOD. Rocker, KluSman d Co took the first

promiums were offered. The large silver medal was

In no branch Of mechanical ar, has there
been more apparent advance than II the man

huge, shspeless structure, almost as devoid OF

to patterns Of grace aud utility until the varieties

These qualities seem to be possessed most Iully IN
