RINDLE’S AGRICULTURAL STEXMER 
AND CALDRON.—By the use of Steamed Food, Dairy¬ 
men admit the increase of one-third in 
milk, and no waste of fodder. A Western 
house writes us: “We have keen using a 
No. 2 Prindle Steamer for one month, steam¬ 
ing ship stuff from the mill, during which 
time we have fattened fifty hogs more rapid¬ 
ly than any hogs we have ever fed, with less 
than half the cost.” 
The “Prindle Steamer” can tie liad from 
the subscribers or from any responsible deal¬ 
er in the United States. It is always suc¬ 
cessful when it lias a good draft, sets near 
the work to he done, and lias plenty of water 
at hand to wet the food. Its safety even in 
unskilled hands is beyond a clou lit. One hundred have 
lately been sold to a bouse in San Francisco. 
Prize Essays (a book of 64 pages), giving full ’information
