Early EnOrte ~ M1AIn8 OOO0 0t0VO0
Doubtless some form Of cooking stove
has been used from a very early period
Previous to 1T45 the stoves of all kind,
used in America were imported from
Holland or Germany, but in that year
a stove was invented by Benjamin
Franklin that was a great improve
ment on all that had preceded it. In
1771 he continued his inventions in this
line and produced stove for burning
bituminous coal which consumed its
own smoke and another which, after
being filled at the top. could be in.
verted and made to burn from the
base. Between 17S5 and 1895 several
improvements in stove, ovens, heating
and cooking apparatus were made by
Count Rumford, and as early as 1T9s
his soapstone-lined ranges had been in.
troduced in New York and were com.
ing gradually into general use.-St
