The following article fom the N. Y. Tribune of the
4th uit will show what estimation these Wheels
held by the high authority of the American Institute
From the N. Y. Tribune.
HoTCHKISS'S WATER WHEEL.
This Wheel, after having been adopted by some hun
dreds of mill owners the Delaware Susquehan nah,
and other numbering regions, presented for compe
tton at the late fair of the American Institute and there
was awarded two premiums by different Committees
first the best Water Wheel for Saw Mills secondly
being one of the five best inventions submitted at the
Fair Ii has been extensively adopted in the great pine
districts othe South and its rapid and smooth execution
perfect immunity ice or hack water and other
omies are securing it very general preference The
Inventor his way south and may he addressed
at Augusta Ga, at his residence, Windsor Broome
county, N. Y. Its advantagesare summed follows:
ho Wheel. for Sal re-
qures gearing produce from 175 800 strokes Of
the saw per minute.
2 They are az cheaply constructed as The common
Fntter Wheel and will do double the business with the
same advantage of the water.
3. Back water is impediment when there is head
above.
f. Ice cannot form on the wheels.
s. They occupy less space than Flutter Wheel Mill.
g. The increased speed of the makes better lum-
ber the distance with less resistance and the
dust is freely thrown off, which ofen with
the saw causing it to bind and heat, with slow Mills.
T. They be, placed oil the shaft, ofa common Flut-
Wheel Mill if in good order, and hung upon the
bearings if sufficiently strong TO sustain the power OF the
wheels
They also constitute the requisite Ely Balance Wheel
securinga uniform motion, in all parts of each revoiu
ton.
The introduction of mills is reduced to plaiu sys
TEN, that if the head OF knowh the result
nathe ematicai certainty.
10 Any workman having the patterns, model, and
table OF calculation, adapt mills TO any location with
perfect-secc
IL. The improved mode of feeding is much approved
Of by those who have adopted it.
