The above cut represents a valuable apparatus for heating water or cooking stock feed by steam, and is most admirably adapted to the use of farmers, hotel keepers, tanners, sto< k feeders,etc. It consists of an oblong oanldron with tight fitting cover swelled upward, as seen in the cut, for retaining the steam as generated. Attached to this are gum-elastic pipes, for conveying the steam into the barrel, vat, or whatever vessel the water to be heated, or grain or vegetables to be cooked in, is placed. It is so constructed that an explosion is impossible, even if left entirely without attendance, and is so simple In arrangement thai a child may be safely intrusted with its man- agement. We make three sizes, as follows : No. 0, or 30 gallon size, weighs 350 lbs., and boils water in tubs at the rate of 60 gallons per hour No. 1, or GO gallon size, weighs 500 lbs., and boils at the rate of 150 gallons per hour No. 2, or 00 gallon size, weighs 675 lbs., and does 30 per cent. more work than No. 1, with same fuel This Bize is suited to the use of tanners, steamers, dyers, slaugh- terers, or extensive stock feeders. We think- it a matter abundantly demonstrated that from 33 to 50 per cent, of grain is saved by grinding and cooking it before feeding. It is, moreover, not less a fact that there is 8 I kving in the time usually required to put stock in marketable condition, by cook- ing their feed. And we know of no two implements which will sooner repay their cost, in grain saved, than our Little Giant Crush- ers and Steam Boilers, when used either separately or in combina- Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images t
