TO COUNTRY MILEERS IN VIRGINIA.
Allow one whose interest il Identified with yours and
who has had considerable experience in the -four trade TO
call your attention 10 the condition of yoy 6uyre I'm
great majority of cases they received here much soil
edpary because b0atmen pass them careps,y and
with dirty shoes-pariIy because in some cases the 6our
waggoncd or rolled TO boats without sufficient care being
used to keep 1t cleaand partly because after shipment
exposed TO The action OF dew and RAIN which darkens
and detaces the barrel.
With shelter erected for the reception of -four at the
lower end OF the Basin in this City, IL now
easy keep clean after it is received here Some OF
most extensive receivers of the article deeply sensible
of the importance of the subject exprs themselves 60
ermined to use all exerons within their power TO keep
the article as clean IL is before landing IL only re-
mains therefore, that their determination be by re-
solution on your part TO send ii TO their hands clean and
this easily be done by the OF tarpaulins 10 each
boat IL - believed you easily the use of
paulns by paying very tring extra freight, and posi-
lively refusing oship flour except 10y boats thus furnish
ed feel that your interest is deeply concerned here
and have the cOncurrng testimony to sustain me of ali
who have experience in the trade, particularly the shin
pers. IkOto that in other markets difference of from
IL ID cents to 70 cents per barrel is made in price and
this difference caused by the appearance of the barrel
alone In this market the difference in price has not been
great as IL very will be-
Another subject applicable particularly to Millers be-
You'd the RGge, is the want of lining each barrel The
Importance OF this IS not sufficiently understood beyond
the mountains and call the attention of Milers TO it, be
cause believe he time has when lining each
barrel will he found indispensable to sale al the fair
market prcesl know where has result
ed fom slowing unlined flour with all possible care i'm
vessels holdhe head ,cH come out and very unneces
where the Captains of vessels (nd think very property
have refused to sign Bills Of Lading designating flour
in good order, merely because the barrels not lined,
and know persons who purchasers to very con.
siderable extent, who their determination not 20 yur-
chase unned barre and this requisition that each
head be lned consider both reasonable and proper The
time has arrived when every barrel Of flour must lined
at both heads, rejected by most of purchasers The
charge for lining barrel OF flour IN Richmond is three
cents and persuaded very considerable saving will
result from lining at the Mills
