APPLE PARER, CORER AND CUTTER
CoyfBINED.-HenryS Selicl1, of Ferguson's
Valley, is the inventor of this ingenious
machine, which, unless we are much
mistaken, will find a place in every
household where apples are used in any
quantity. A sample, made of cast iron,
was exhibited in our office last week, and
= trial of its merits satisfied every one
that it was far superior to anything of the
kind hitherto invented. 1t pares, cores,
and quarters apples so expeditiOusly that
we have no doubt the whole operation of
preparing apples for butter could be per-
formed by a boy or girl in little over an
hour: and for drying purposes the ma
chine would pay for itself III single sea-
son on any farm where apples are used
for that purpose. It's substantially made,
nothing liable to get out of order, and oc-
cupies no more space than the ordinary
sausage cutter.
gs~ Stepping into the Lutheran par
sonage the other day, we noticed that the
Dastors study contained a new and costly
lounge, that the windows were hung with
handsome blinds, and that other articles
Of comfort, convenience and adornment
were added to those already there. The
ladies' Of the congregation had the matter
in hand, and of course it was neatly ac-
complished.
