A. Bald'win. Esq.—Dear Sir: Having examined tiie model 
of your COTTON PRESS, I am favorably Impressed with the 
design as cominning great power witli tiie most simple com¬ 
bination of parts, so tliat tliere is tlic least cliance for delay 
caused l>y break-downs. Al.so tlie mode of applying tlio 
power to produce tlie graduated efl'ect by means of tlie 
worm wheel and screw, is a combination of great simplicity 
and flue'mechanical arrangement to produce the result, with 
the least expenditure of power. Hoping you will have suc¬ 
cess with it, I remain, yours truly, Isaac V. Holmes, 
Constructing Engineer and Superintendent.

DOTY’S CLOTHES WASHER 
AND THE 
UNIVERSAL CLOTHES WRINGER. 
DOTY’S WASHING MACHINE has aaain been awarded 
the FIRST PREMIUM AT THE GREAT NE'W-ENGLAND 
FAIR OF 1866. 
Doty’s Wasliing Machine took tlie FIRST PREMIUM at 
the last Fair of the American Institute—also at the GREAT 
NEW-ENGLAND FAIR of 1866—and at the recent State 
Fairs of New Hampshire, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, &c. 
These are the cheapest and best macliines for wasliing and 
wringing clothes. The Waslier, using boiling liot suds, 
saves lliree-fourths tlie labor and time; takes out all dirt; no 
sore hands; no ftetid air; no injury to tlie clotlies. 
Solon Robinson says : “I assure you ‘our machine,’ af- 
ter a year's use, is thouglit more of to-day than ever, and 
would not be parted with under any consideration. 
THE UNIVERSAL CLOTHES WRINGER, with Cog¬ 
wheels, lias taken the First Premium in the State Fair of 
every Northern State; also the First Premium at the last 
two fairs of the American Institute, AND HAS JUST BEEN 
AWARDED THE FIRST PREMIUM BY THE UNANI¬ 
MOUS VOTE OF THE COMMITTEE OF THE GREAT 
NEW-ENGLAND FAIR OF 1866, AFTER THE SIOST 
SCRUTINIZING TRIAL OF THE VARIOUS MACHINES 
OF NUMEROUS COMPETITORS. 
The Wringer, without inj ury to the most delicate garments, 
wrings clothes almost dry and never gets tired. 
Orange Judd says: “It is a clothes-saver, a time-saver 
and a strength-saver. We tliink the machine more than 
pays for itself every year in tlie saving of garments. IVe 
think the Wringer should be fitted with cogs.” 
Solon Robinson says : “ My family would as soon give 
up tlie cooking-stove as this Clothes Wringer. It cannot be 
too higlily recommended.” 
The Rev. Dr. Bellows says: “I heartily commend it to 
economists of time, money and contentment.” 
From tlie Rev. THEO. L. CUTLER. 
Life is too sliort and liuman strength is too precious for 
onr woman kind to be kept at the old process of clotlies- 
ivashlng and wringing. In tlie laundry of my liouse there 
is perpetual tlianksgiving on Mondays for tlie invention of 
your excellent Wringer. I wish liuman hearts jould he 
cleansed as easily.

Mr. Orange Judd, Editor of tlie American Agriculturist, 
says: “ Our‘hetter-iialf says tliis is taken to most kindly 
by tlie ‘help,’ and that she cannot persuade them to use any 
other wliile tills is at hand.” 
Prof. Yodm.vns, M. D., says; “Our family is not small, hut 
a smart girl, 11 years old, d'id the wasliing last week in about 
four liours, and that, too, more as a frolic than a task.” 
Bishop Scott, of the M. E. Church, Odessa, Del., says: “I 
took hold (wliich, of course, I sliould not have done if wo 
had no maclilnel, and in 2X hours we put tlirouglr eleven 
dozen pieces, many of wliieh were sheets, and they were well 
done. too. We like our machine mucli; could not be per. 
suaded to do without it."
