No. *21. Portable Furnace and Wn<*hcr. 
In this we have a combination of good 
things to be used in every family. It is a 
portable furnace for heating water, canning 
frnit, boiling cider, making apple-butter, 
boiling corn, and other purposes. Aside from 
these uses, it is a first-class washing machine, 
washing all kinds of clothing—bed and table 
linen—clean and without any hand rubbing 
or tbe rubbing off of buttons. The water is 
used at a very high temperature; it requires 
much less soap and obviates tbe tendency of 
woolen blankets and underwear to “full, ’ 
which so often spoils them. The parts next 
tbe fire are lined with cast iron, and 90 put in 
that any pieces burning out can be readily re 
placed, and the bottom of the boilers are made 
of copper. The fine is made of heavy sheet- 
iron with flaring sides covering nearly the 
entire bottom of tbe boiler. Tbe whole thing 
is supported on four stout legs; it is two by 
five feet, and 28 Inches high, aud is so econo 
mical of fuel that it is claimed that a half 
cord of wood, or its equivalent in chips or 
corn cobs, will last to do the family washing 
for a w hole year. It is made by B. L. Ryder 
& Co.. Cbamberburg, Pa., weighs 200 pounds, 
price $35. We will give one to the sender of 
toe 21 sc largest club, _ 
No. *2*2. Cooley Cabinet Creamer. 
Experiments demonstrate the fact, that the 
use of a creamer and cold water or ice raises 
tbe cream more perfectly than any other 
method. In a recent test made by Dr. Bab¬ 
cock, of the New York Experiment Station, 
with a Cooley Creamer, less than one-tenth of 
one per cent, was left in the skim milk. In 
the Cooley the cans containing the milk are 
entirely submerged and water-sealed, which 
is claimed to greatly increase tbe cooling sur¬ 
face, and tbe water" is said to absorb ail gases 
or bad odors, and tbe cream is not affected 
by thunder or sudden changes of temperature. 
We will present a No. 1. Cooley Cabinet 
Creamer, having three cans and large enough 
to accommodate the milk of from six to nine 
cows, price $33, to the person sending the 22d 
largest club. Made by the Vermont Farm 
Machine Co., Bellows Falls, Vt. 
No. *23. Bradley deli-dumplnsr Hay Rake. 
We again have the pleasure of including in 
our list one of these sterling hay rakes. The 
one we gave away last year gives the most 
unbounded satisfaction, and can not be bought 
for the price of a new* one. In the way the 
axle is made and the tbiil stiffened, the axle 
can neither sag nor the thill get out of true. 
Dumping from either wheel, it works nicely 
around bends or corners, and can be dumped 
anywhere. The teeth are oil-tempered, act 
independently and run nnder the hay, so as to 
carry it almost free from the ground, and keep 
it free of dirt or rubbish. It is self dumping or 
the lever shown can be used to dump it, or 
carry the teeth if so desired; but when not so 
used, it is not tbe least in tbe way. Made bv 
Bradley & Co., Syracuse, N. Y. Price $30, 
and will be given to the 23d largest ciuo 
raiser, and if it gives half as good satisfaction 
as the one given last year, the sender will not 
regret the time spent in obtaining it.

1 .loading, Double-Barreled sslioi <Jun. 
Every farmer needs a gun. ami none is so 
good for bis use as a breech loader. He 
can then keep cartridges loaded with a variety 
of ammunition, and when ready to use can 
select a load suitable for the game. Tbe 
mellow the top two or throe inches of soil aud 
put it into the best possible condition to re¬ 
ceive toe seed. In bard clay lumps, on inver¬ 
ted sod and on the lighLe’st laud, it seems 
equally at home, aud. it cuts and slices uutil 
the surface is all gone over aud any ordinary 
growth of weeds annihilated. It is made by 
Nash & Brothers, Milliugtou, New Jersey, 
against the action of the atmosphere, thus 
preventing all acidification, as well as the loss 
of sugar. The fruit during the whole process 
of drying is kept in a heated, dry air, a! 
though of lower temperature than at first. By 
the iucliued elevator trunk the steum frutn 
the drying fruit rises iuto, and passes out of 
tbe machine by way of the upper flue, and so 
wants. It is«trong and durable, easily grinds 
50 bushels per hour, and will make 75 gallons 
of cider at a pressing. Made by the Higgauum 
Manufacturing Corporation, Higgauum, Ct.

Now. 35 and 30. The Marlin .Magazine Rifle 
We are of Leu Asked to recommend a really 
reliable, light-weight, medium cost repeating 
rifle. Everybody recognizes their superiority 
over tbe ordinary gun, inasmuch as if theUrs-t 
shot fails to kill, the magazine gun can be in 
stantlv loaded for u second shot, aud then the 
magazine gun can be put away, ready charg¬ 
ed. and take no harm for an indefinite time, 
while the ordinary guu is ruined iu a short 
Pieper is made entirely by machinery, and is 
equal in quality aud superior in finish to any 
American gun. The Pieper system of putting 
the barrels together insures a degree of 
parallelism of barrels found only in very high- 
priced guns of the ordinary way of making 
The boring aud chambering are also peculiar 
to tbe Pieper gun ,and insure the finest shooting

ing one to the sender of the twenty-seventh

No. 28. The Lnbnre Adjustable Chair. 
The ordinary chair affords very little rest 
to a weary person or an invalid, and an easy- 
cbair is a comfort that should be in every 
household. Of all the easy chairs made none 
quite so fully ‘ fills the bill” as Luburg’s ad¬ 
justable chair. It is made of solid walnut., 
neatly and endurably upholstered m various 
materials according to the taste of the pur¬ 
chaser and the price he cares to pay. Having 
over 50 changes of position into which it, can 
be put, from tbe upright reception chair to 
the invalid’s lounge, we can conceive of uo 
shape into which a tired person wishes to get 
or an invalid's caprice might suggest, that this 
chair will not assume. And, then, for the 
studentor reader or the editor even, it has an 
adjustable reading or writing desk which cati 
be attached and placed in any position most 
desired. We can think of no more appropri¬ 
ate or acceptable wedding, birth day or Christ¬ 
mas present than one of these chairs. They 
are simply soliil comfort , Made by the Ln 
burg Manufacturing Comoauv. No 1*15 North

luxurious embrace. 
Nos. *29 and 30. The American Evaporator. 
Every imperfect or second class apple put 
into barrels and sent to market only takes tbe 
place of a perfect one and reduces tbe price of 
both. The perfect portion of the same apple, 
if used in an evaporator, would produce just 
as good product as the rest. Every oreharilist 
Eighty-eight thousand made and sold in 15 
years, and 8 500 in the past year, attest iho 
popularity of Ibis rake. It is substantially 
made, tbe wheels being extra large it runs

guns are now in use giving perfect satisfac¬ 
tion. These guns are sold by Schoverling,

and dealer in musical instruments, Philadel¬ 
phia, Pa. Price $25 00. and it will be given

No. *27. Acuie Pulverizing Harrow. 
We have bad much experience with the 
different tools for the preparation of tne soil, 
after plowing for the reception of the seeds; 
but not one uas given us such complete satis¬ 
faction every where a? the Acme Harrow. We 
have one of the first ones made, and have 
two or thiee of tbe later ones, and we know of 
no tool which could take its place. Its peculiar 
combination of cast steel coulters or slicers, 
hy their continual cutting, lifting and turn¬ 
ing, Beems to completely pulverize aud 
perfect is this action that fruit taken from the 
machine at any time and from any place, will 
be found to have its surface perfectly dry. By 
means of this inclined trunk the American 
Evaporator secures a uniform current of dry 
air through the fruiton each tray and succeeds 
in drying such things as need spreading on 
sheeting. The American is furnished iu 
various sizes, from the No, 0, costing only 
$25 00, to the Mammoth No. 4, capable of 
drying more than 100 bushels of fruit per 
day. Each machine Is furnished with a stove 
complete, ready to be setup and run in a few 
minutes. They are made by the American 
Manufacturing Co.. Waynesboro, Pa. We 
will present a No. 0, complete, price 325. to 
each of the persons sending us the two next 
largest clubs, No. 29 and No. 30. 
No. 31. Conte* bock T-ever Sell-dumping 
liny Rake. 
A good bay rase is among the indispensable 
labor-saving tools of the farm. The cut shows 
the Coates Lock Lever Hay Rake, which is 
conceded to be among the best made. 
culiar shape of tbe frame enable • it to work 
over rough or uneven ground. The construc¬ 
tion aud shape of the teeth are such that tho 
frame is carried clear of the ground while the 
dirt is cut or sliced, instead of being pushed 
aside. It can in five minutes be adjusted to 
run shallow or deep or for hard or soft 
ground; this is done by changing the 
pitch of the teeth. Iu this burrow 
the teeth and spring are separate and 
not liable to break at the same time, 
this makes the cost of repairing 
merely nominul. Besides all these, 
the use of coiled springs gives gieater 
freedom to the action of the teeth, 
enabling it to do good work in strong, 
rooty ground, so bad that the ordinary 
spring tooth could not be used. Made 
byE, Bement&Sons, Lausing, Michi¬ 
gan. Price $25.00, We will give one 
of these harrows to each person who 
will send us the next largest clubs No.

> 1111 . 
If the poisonous acids that Are sold and 
used as vinegar were all supplanted by the gen¬ 
uine cider viuegar, tho demand would require 
tbe conversion of all second class apples into 
cider. This would be to the advantage of all 
parties. This mill is just what the farmer 
should have an evaporator to use up these 
poor apples. It can be put to profitable use 
with the early fruits of Summer, and con¬ 
tinue until tbe poor apples are all disposed of 
iu the Winter. It is also just the thiug for 
drying corn and vegetables, many of which 
are even better when dried than when 
fresh. The American Evaporator, while of 
medium price, possesses many advantages 
over those of higher prices. In the first place, 
tbe fruit is put at one*'* into a dry, hotair, and 
its surface is at once dried and the cells closed
