A VERT ingenious application of scientific principles, with practical results, is made the subject of a patent by a Birmingham (England) firm. Refrigerators are to be built in which water is to be used, instead of ice, for keeping the temperature at a low point. The base of the refrigerator is surrounded by a rim containing water and the metallic body is covered with a porous textile fabric. By capillary attraction the water rises over the wnole surface, evaporation ensues, and a cooling effect is produced. The greatest effect is of course produced in the hottest weather, and the difference between the temperature grows less as the demand for such difference diminishes.

Then throw it into a tub to cool, and when cold pour it over your beef or pork, to remain the usual time, say four or five weeks. The meat must be well covered with pickle, and should not be put down for at least two days after killing, during which time it should be slightly sprinkled with powdered saltpeter, which removes all the surface blood, &c., leaving the meat fresh and clean.

We confidently assert that our, work and prices cannot be excelled by any'other establishment. The continual increase in business has made it necessary to enlarge our facilities for manufacturing. We call special attention: to W. H. Ransom's Patent Anti-Rattling Fifth Wheel A recent invention, and the greatest improvement ever added to a carriage, buggy or spring wagon.
