Description
The advantages of Hathaway's patent "are that a great quantity of baking, roasting, &c. may be done in a stove occupying a comparatively small space, that the ovens may be more or less heated without agumenting or diminishing the quantity of fire; that when heated to the required temperature, the heat may be for a long time retained in the flues, rendering only a small quantity of fuel necessary for heating a room and doing the cooking."
