THE ONEIDA COMMUNITY HATCHER was exhibited at the Fair of the New York State Agricultural So-ciety, a few years since, and there hatched out a goodly numberof chickens. It was modelled somewhat after the Eclipse, out-wardly, and regulated by an electrical battery. It was, however,of very rough and primitive construction, and needed frequentlooking after, although a self-regulator. THE NOVELTY INCUBATOR. Fig. 75 shows this really novel Incubator. Its heating appar-atus consists of two tanks, one above the other, with a space oiten or twelve inches between them; from the top of the lowei 96 EUREKA
