| The undersigned has obtained letters paentlo
enable common Mill stones Tor rocks) now in use
to grind CORN, COB and SHUCK, into meal
for horses mules, cattle, hogs &C., thereby saving
more than one third of crop, which is an impOT-
taDt item with planters. The machinery used for
the aboV "purpose is simple and durable and can
not, with fair means. get of order 1t will last
| as long as the stones last, with expense Of 80
cents every five years. 10 enable the common
mill stones TO grind ear corn into meal requires
new buildings or extra power. 1t also be ap-
piled TO horse mills 1hreshng machines gins or
any given power known. The same mill will
grind one-fhird more of corn meal by the intro
duction of this machinery, and be changed
from grinding corn cob, and shuck TO grinding
corn meal in the space of thirty seconds. Corn
alone when fed to stock, is said TO be by the most
practical and scientific planters, constpatng in its
effects, producing founders, cholics and various
other maladies which are incident to stock Grind
ing coos and shuck with the corn mukes a food
congenal with their nature, and cannot produce
any ofthe serious results above mentioned. Stock
when fed on corn exclusively, are deprived oflhe
benefits of diSIension $50 necessary 10 The proper
health Of animals,) by their being unable 10 eat
suthclent bulk to produce 6islension before The
animal becomes gorged. Cobs ground with the
corn produce this necessary dIstnsion, without
any danger OF diseases arising from oVereallDS'
Corn cob and shuck mealis improved by scading,
and still more by boiling, and yet more by Patl
al fermentation. All the pre- paratons facilitate
digestion for hogs. But horses and mules will
not eat fermented food, consequently :hey will
quire il dry or partially wet with cold waller;
Horses mules and oxen, when fed with unground
food, void much in an undigesed state, which S
of course lost for all beneficial purposes.

Having been solicited by Maj. Collins 10 have
my Mill adjusted TO grind Corn in the Ear anu
Shuck, consented that he should do so as an ex-
pertinent; and / am able to say that it grlnds
Corn in the Shuck at The rate of 80 bushels per
hour; and the dressing of the stones is so impoV-
ID, that it grinds shelIed Corn more than twice as
ast as before, and by my watch at the rate OF 10
bushels per hour and the meal finer than usual
ieemit valuable improvement, and shall pur
;hase the right to use It, as it will afford me
speedy way Of feeding my horses and cattle, anu

MFR GALES: SIR-In order to remove Public
prejudice (Which appears to prevail in this section
fthe country against all Patent Righs) so far as my
ierived in having Major coLI1Ns Patent Right for
grinding Corn, Cob and Shucks, attached applied 10
ny Grist Mill, Istate that my Mill since this improve
neut was attached, grinds not only good Meal as De-
ore, but FIVE TIMES FAsTER, and grnds up the Co!1'
Cob and Shuck, into Meal sufficiently fine to mix VIII
ther roo gh TODD for Stock. My Mill ground very $40"
efore this improvement was made, but now grInoS "
Neal at the late ofsix bushels per hour. ,Ao
make this statement, well for the benefit OF In
'ublic, to do Justice to KNowLToN's Patent (nO"
