Campbell of Aurora, Cayuga county, N. Y., may be interesting to many of our readers who have the article in abundance : "When they are full}- ripe suspend the basket by a strap or cord passed around the neck, thereby giving liberty to both hands tor picking; with one hand hold the cluster, and with the other remove from the vine; remove from the cluster all un unripe and decayed fruit and deposit them in the basket until it is filled. —I use a market basket that will hold about a bush el. Carry the grapes thus gathered to the place for packing. I use boxes about two feet square by six inches deep in the clear, with covers made to fit tight. In packing lay a newspaper on the bottom of the box, then a layer of grapes, then a paper and second layer of grapes which, when closely packed, fills the box; set in some dry, airy place, with the cover off and let the box re main open for ten days, or until the sweat ing process is past; then close the box and set them in the fruit room, cellor or garret, any place were they will not freeze, or which is not extremely damp. Grapes packed as above directed, will open at any time during the winter or spring following, as fresh as when packed. The only secret or mistery is, that the mois ture which spoils the fruit when packed in saw dust and other absorbents, passes off during the tea days that the box remains open, instead of being absorbed and ulti mately moulding and spoiling them. Ho perfect has been my success that I have more confidence in the preservation of the grape than any other fruit. I use shallow boxes for packing grapes that the moisture may more readily escape, and that the first layer in the bottom may not be crushed by the weight above." HARD\\ A R E !

'I he heat of the fire, in ordinary cooking stoves, decomposes the fuel, and as all the fresh air is admitted un der the grate, its oxygen is exhausted before it has passed through the fire chamber. The close flues at the top of the stove then act a3 an ex tinguisher, tending to put out the fire instead of assisting the combustion. A large portion of the fuel, therefore, passes olf in the shape of smoke, clogging up the flues of the stove so as to impede the draft and interfere with the ba king,—or of invisible gas which combines with the lime and so destroys the mortar of the chimneys, loosening the bricks, arid exposing the dwellings to the danger of fire. The introduction of an additional supply of cold air would cool the gas below the igniting temperature, but by the proper application above the fire of air previously heated to a tem perature of several hundred degrees (which is one of the prominent features of the patent) the gases are inflamed in numerous jets, and their combustion is sufficient to heat the oven, even if the draft through the (ire chamber is entirely closed. In addition to the ordinary di rect draft under the grate and through the fire chamber, the gas-burner has an additional draft through the top plates, which is of itself suffi cient to maintain combustion. The upper draft not only consumes the gases, but it helps to strengthen and preserve the centre pieces which are most exposed to the direct action of the fire, and which are made double instead of the ! usual single plates. By means of this draft | alone, all the operations of cooking can be car ; ried on when the fuel is but partially ignited, i and the fuel consequently burns more slowly i and more economically. A sufficient evidence ' of the effect o' the gases in heating the oven is I found in the fact that the oven will he ready i for baking even before the fire is thoroughly ; kindled, and much sooner than in any other. 1 There is scarcely a doubt that before long i the Gas-burning Cooking Stoves will supercede all others. The operation is so perfect and its | consumption of fuel so small in comparison with other cooking stoves, and its heat so easily regulated, (burning more or less as desired,) that every one who uses one of these stoves will j have nothing else.
