Another important feature is the in
yention of a small Radiator which placed
over the burner makes a desirable heat

adapted for any time of the year and
many people do away with the ordinary
stoves entirely by using this stove with
radiator for both heating and cooking.

from customers who were using this
wonderful oil-gas stove, showing that ii

as few extracts may be interesting to
the readers. we reproduce them:
L. S. Norris, of VT, writes: The Har-
rison Oil-GaS Generators are wonderful
savers of fuel-at least SO to 75 per cent
over wood and coal"
the Harrison is the first and only perfect
oil-gas stove have ever seen-so simple
anyone can safely use it. It is what l
ing to human kind"
Mr.. E. d. Arnold. of Neb.. writes:
""That he saved S4.25 month for fuel by
using the Harrison Oil-Gas Stove; that
his gas range cost him s5.5e per month,
and the Harrison only si:25 per month"
rison Oil-Gas Stove makes an intense
heat from small quantity of oil-en-
tirely free from smoke or smell-great
improvement over any other oil stove.
Has a perfect arrangement for combus-
tion-can scarcely be distinguished from
a natural gas fire."
Mr.. III. Il. Thompson, of Ohio, writes:
Il congratulate you on such grand in
vention to aid the poor in this time of
high fuel The mechanism is so simple
easily operated--no danger. The color
of the gas flame is a beautiful dark blue.

Soldiers Voting.

F.. William G. Roy, Sergeant, 18th Mich.
Harvey, ILL.,, wants to correct ourselves
as well as Comrade Cooley in regard
to soldiers voting in the field Com
rade Cooley says that the only States he
knew of which failed to allow the SOL
diers to vote were Massachusetts, and
Michigan. Comrade RoS's regiment was
at Kingston. GA, on election day. and
voted for the President. He was not
old enough to vote. at that time. but
remembers that his comrades did.
II. Harris, 43d Wis, Philadelphia,
Pa, reminds us that Wisconsin allowed
her soldiers to vote. He cast his first
vote as a member of the 43d Wis,
which was stationed at Johnsonville,
Tenn, on election day.

Because air is the only free fuel and no
trust in control inventors have tried for
years to find way by which properties
could be drawn from the atmosphere and
used as fuel for general household pur-
poses, thus producing the cheapest fuel
obtainable.
To a Cincinnati genius heretofore un-
known to fame must go the credit of
solving this great question. Understand.
you cannot burn air absolutely alone, but
this new air generator actually takes its
fuel almost entirely from the atmosphere.
so much as to take in 395 barrels of air
while consuming one gallon of oil.
The time has come at last when our
readers are no longer compelled to con-
tinually drudge in hot fiery kitchens with
coal and wood fires so ruinOus to health
and looks. for every family who desires
can cook, bake and heat with oil and air
gas. the wonderful new fuel which fire.
Quently saves from one-third to one-half
on fuel bills. What n blessing this is to

their lives can say no more coal or wood.

Feeding experiments carried on D! the Washington state agricultural eX pertinent station at Pullman during the last ten years have shown tha wheat yields better results with cat tie and swine than any other cereal and now the station has begun SC ries of experiments with work horses to test the feeding value of wheat In the northwest oats and barley have been the traditional feeds for horses Wheat has been used in mixtures but there has always been fear of founder ing from it, the idea being it is toe "heating" However, in the case o1 hogs and cattle such uniform results have been attained that it would seem unlikely that horses should be pc culiar in this respect. It is probable that the vast number of work horses on the farm, in the towns and cities and on the many construction lnes for railways and irrigation enterprises in the northwest, can use wheat as the foundation and the largest part of the ration.
