The title indicates 1889, but if you look at the diagrams and photos
in the book, that date is obviously wrong. The latest photos look
like the early 1960s to me.

Farmers' Bulletin 1889 - Fireplaces and Chimneys

1889 is the serial number of this document, not its date.


Oh, well that solves the mystery. Thanks.

From the book:

U. S. GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE: 1947

I've downloaded a lot of free books from the Gutenberg project to my
Kindle. Lots and lots of old, useful information.


+1. I find it particularly interesting to read fiction written 100 or
more years ago. The difference in social perspective is startling.
