- first premiums at every Fair where il has
been exhibited. At the South Western Indiana
District Fair, held here October, 1859, there were
but two premiums offered for cooking stoves-one for
the best wood cooking stove for the best coal
cooking stove. The Economist took the FIRST
PREMIUM FOR THE BEST COOKING STOVE
FOR WOOD. Rocker, KIusman q Co took the first
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 al Chicago. and twelve other State and
County Fairs in 1859.
In branch Of mechanical art has tler.
bqen more apparent advance than in the man
utacture OF stoves. 1t Is but a few years since
the very name was novelty, representing
huge, sllapel+ss structure, almost devoid OF
use as ornament, THESE nave gradually given place
to patterns Of grace aud utility until the varieties
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
on that point, but the competition in price,
to which they have been subjected, has deprived
them of many of the substantial qualities
desirable This more especially to have been
the in reference cook stoves-n article of
domestic economy that has more toSfo with Seeding
wives and crotcheiy servants than most people i'm
agine. The public have Long sought improve
Inent in this article, and believe ready to pay
any reasonable price for cooking stove, if it only
possesses the merits of size, weight convenience,
durability, economy, aud perfection of man uIctuIe.
These qualities to lie possessed most fully i'll
the Econ ,nsist-a stove, perfected and brought
out the past season, by Messrs. Treadwell Perry
J. Norton, of Albany. We heard much of this
stove, and it looked so much like IA stove intended
for use, that concluded TO try them, and the
result of the experiment conVinces that the
propriet9rs in their determination TO make the bet
store ia tee srorid, have succeeded. We regard the
Economist possessing all the merits above
merated-as the great stove OF the day-far in adj
vance of anything attempted in the line of
stoves, perfect in all its appointments, and true TO
its name in durability and the of fuel. Among
the many cOuVenienGes attached to it, NAV lie
toned large oyen with hooks arranged, for s,ls-
pending meats while roasting. A copper water
tank, holding from II to 20 gallons-warnIhg
rloset, brOiliug hearth, dc, &c. The broiIing
hearth is of the most noticeable features of this
remarkable stove There never has been, TO our
knowledge, Amy broiling Xture that really
siactory in its operation. The proprietors of this
stove have been conducting series of experiments
upOh broiling, eliciting valuable facts
sultiug in the invention of gIidIrOn adapted
this sove which has been secured by letters patent
and is Of the admirable things of the kind
NC ever Saw-Lruiling without smoke, and keeping
the Goals in constant glow. We are always glad
to do just ice to mechanical imI rovenents and
pecialiy such contribute largely to the general
good, as the one above mentioned.
