The Transparent Ice Works.

The factory has been thoroughly
overhauled during the past winter and
the latest improvements added to the
machinery. making 1T one OF the most
complete plants in the country with q
daily capacity of fifteen tons. The
machinery was started up on Monday

PATENTS.
NOTICE TO INVENTORS.

There was never time in the history of
our country when the demand for inven-
lions and improvements in the arts and sci
ences generally was so great as now. The
cOnvenienceS of mankind in the factory
and workshop, the household, on the farm,
and in official life, require continual aeces-
siOns to the appurtenances and implements
of each In order to save labor. time aud ex-
pense. The pc itical change in the admin
isration of government does not affect the
progress of the American inventor, who be
ing on the alert, and ready to perceive the
existing deficiencies, does not permit the af-
fairs of government to deter HIM from
Quicklycopceiving the remedy to overcome
existing discrepancies. Too great care can
not be exercised in choosing competent
and skillful attorney to prepare and prose-
cute an application for patent. Valuable
interests have been lost and destroyed in
innum1rable instances by the employment
of incompetent counsel. and especially is
this advice applicable TO those who adopt
the "NO patent, no pay" system. Invent
Ors who entruSt their business to this class
of attorneys do so at imminent risk, as the
breadth and strength of the patent is never
considered in view of quick endeavor TO
get an allowance and obtain the fee then

senting large number of important daily

Odicals of the country, was instituted to
protect its patrons from the unsafe meth
dds heretofore employed in this line of BUSH
ness. The said Company is prepared to

THE FAMILY GOAT.
An Unappreciated MILK Producer Whose
Forage Is Cheap. Z.

An Impoverished Milk Producer Whose
Forage Is Cheap. 4.
The goat as a milk producer is hardly
appreciated in this country. But in the
old world the family goat is only less
esteemed than the family COW. The milk
is considered better than that from Jer'
sey cows for culinary purposes.
There is, moreover, one great advan-
tage in goat keeping over cows. 1t is
this-that a cow usually provides a
much larger quantity of milk than can
be utilized in its natural state in the
household, the consequence being that
either a portion must be converted into
butter so many times week, necessitat-
ing labor which is not always profitable
and frequently unsatisfactory in its re-
suits, or some of the milk has to be sold,
entailing other Inconvenience.
With a goat, ON the contrary, this
difficulty can never arise A good speci-
men will generally provide a small
household with enough milk for general
use during eight months of the year.
Were the plan once started no doubt
many American village jewellers who
cannot afford TO keep COW would find
that a milk goat would answer the pur-
pose fairly well.
Goats will consume leaves and rough
forage that cows will not touch, and
they are sure to get good living Sc
long as any digestible material is with
in their reach. &c. c. Hills in Massa-
