sUNNYsEDE HEATER.

sUNNYsIpE AT MARYLANp STATE FAIR, BAL
TINfoRE.--First premium for Fireplace Heaters
awarded the sunnyside
Advantages Of the Snnnyside
1. 1t is so constructed that one-thlrd more of
the radiating surface extends into the room, CIV
ing that much more additional heat without eX-
ira fuel.
2. 1t Is the only Hot-Air Fireplace Heater in
the market. Like the regular built cellar heater,
IL loses no heat, but confines II all to its legit
purposes.
3. The fuel magazine is double the usual size,
extending from the flre.box TO the top of the
stove, with capacity for twenty-four hours sup
ply of coal.
4. The patent double cover for coal magazine
consumes the gas, prevents escape of gas into
the room, and makes 1t impossible for any puf-
fngs or explosions to occur. This Is an advant-
age possessed by no other fireplace stove in the
market. H
5. There are three air ccambers, wherein n
brisk circulation Is kept up, drawing the cold air
in the room through heated flues into large
hot-air reservoir, at the back of the stove.
No side pipes used, as the air is heated
In n reservoir having double radiating flues and
double back, supplying large quantities of hot
airwithout waste of heat or fuel.
Z. The SuNNYsIDE utilities the waste heat so
thoroughly that we frequently heat an adjoining
room ON the first, besides heating tie rooms in
second and third stories.
s. A damper on top of the stove, connected
with the hot air fines, controls the quantity OF
hot mir required for the of either the upper
or lower rooms. All other fireplace stoves are
very inconvenient in this respect.
9. The Crate is self-scaling, and no dust can
escape while shaking it.

Miscellaneous.

THE provisions Of the soldiers home
stead bill which has just passed Congress
and received the signature of the President,
are as follows Every officer. soldier, sai-
lor or marine who served in the war for
period exceeding ninety days, may in set
tling upon the public lands, under the
homestead laws, count the period Of his
service rs n part of the five years residence
required to obtain patent to one hundred
and sixty acres. The actual residence on
the land must be at least one year. Six
months are allowed after the location of the
land before the residence upon it must
commence. Persons discharged (or wounds
or disability may have their whole period
of enlistment counted. In case of the
death of a person who would be entitled to
the privileges of the act, his widow, If un-
married, or minor children, if the widow
be married or dead, are entitled to its ben
etits. Any person to whom the bill gives
the right to acquire land may have the
same entered and the required settlement
and residence made by an agent. This is
the most important feature ofthe bill, for
comparatively small number Of soldiers will
themselves become homestead settlers. The
right TO transfer their privileges to an agent
will doubtless be of considerable value to
them.

HERE is the stump spoach in the form Of
a prayer that caused the chaplain of the

"The earth is thine, O Lord, and the
fullness thereof the world and they that

chamber for an answer: What shall we

THE MISSING RIB.-An exchange says:
"In rumaging among dead mems bones
Mr.. Perrin finds q trace yet in man Of the
original Adam in an additional or super
numerary eighth rib making its appearance
from time to time. This, we suppose, is
the one which we were deprived Of during

are not authoritively scientific, we venture
to suggest that this extra rib may be found

Vermont Farmer.

We would call the attention Of agricul-
turists to the merits of the "Vermont
Farmer" published weekly at Newport,
Vermont, by X. Cummings, L. Il. Hos
kins, M. d., editor. We are well ac-
quainted with DR.. Hoskins, and know
him to be very practical, as well as sci
entific, and he conducts the Farmer with
ability and enterprise, and while treating
all with courtesy and fairness, is keenly
on the lookout for, and unsparing in his
exposure of humbugs. He is making
the Farmer an honor to Vermont, and
second to no agricultural paper Prof.
Collier has made it the official organ of
the Vermont State Board of Agricul-
ture and its proceedings, with the papers
read before its meetings arc published in
its pages from week to week. We are
very glad to hear that the Farmer has
become indispensable to the agriculture
lists Of our state, and that its circulation
is increasing so rapidly.
We are writing this in the interest of
the farmers of Vermont, though if our
friends Hoskins and Cummings should
derive some benefit therefrom we know
they deserve it, and as we state facts
only, we don't regard what we say as
flattery.

The Correct Weight of Milk

Mr.. Gail Borden, Of White Plains, n.
Y, who conducts an establishment for
preparing condensed milk, has been max
ing some experiments for the purpose of
determining the correct weight Of crude
milk. lie took the milk of several cows
and mingling it together and then thor
oughly cooling it, he carried it directly
to the at. S, Sealer of Weights and
Measures who measured and weighed
the milk by accurate Government weights
and measures. The result YVES that n
quart Of milk, so measured and weighed
on delicate scales, was equal to two
pounds, two ounces, and one quarter of
an ounce q lbs. 2 ID ounces.) The
tests were made with different samples
Of milk at different times, but without
materially altering the weight. Mr.
Borden has adopted tho above as true
weight of a quart Of milk having fair
average quality. Hence, any person who
buys milk may determine by weight, with
satisfactory accuracy, whether he re-
ceivcs quart when he is required to pay
for that quantity.
