How to Purchase a clothes Wripger.

In purchasing a clothes wringer we prefer
one with cog wheels, as they greatly relieve
the rubber rolls from strain that would other.
wise occur, and add much to the durability
of the machine. The next point is to see
that the cog-wheels are so arranged as not
to fly apart when large article is passed be-
tween the rollers. II matters not whether
the cog.wheels are on one end or both ends of
the shaft If large articles disconnect them
they are entirely useless. This is very i'm
portant, for as the larger the article the
greater the strain, therefore If the cog " heels
separate so as to disconnect, they are of no
service when most needed. We have taken
some pains to examine the various WI myers,
and much prefer the Universal" as lately
improved, because it has long and strong
gears tRswell's Patent Double Gear, and is
the only wringer with "patent stop" for
preventing the cog-wheels from separating
so far as to lose their power--Ne,o ENGLAND
Farmer. Having used the kind of wringer
mentioned above, We fully endorse all that is
said of it by our New England contemporary.
