| The undersigned has obtained letters patent TO
enable common Mill stones (or rocks now in use,
TO grind CORN, COB and SHUCK, into meal,
Tor horses, mules, cattle hogs, &C., thereby saving
more than one third of crop, which is an impor-
tant item with planters. The machinery used for
the abov purpose is simple and durable and can
not, with lair means: get out Of order ii will last
as long the stones last, with an expense Of 80
cents every five years. To enable the
mill stones 10 grind ear corn into meal requires
new buildings or extra power. 1t also be ap-
piled TO horse mills, lhreshEg machines, gins or
any given power known. The same mill will
grind one-third more of corn meal by the intro
duction Of this machinery, and can be changed
from grinding corn cob, and sbuck 10 grinding
corn meal in the space of thirty seconds. Cum

and still more by boiling, and yet more by parIi

Horses, mules and oxen, when fed with unground
food, void much in an undigested state, which is
OF course lost for all beneficial purposes.

Having been solicited by Maj. Collins 10 have
my Mill adjusted 10 grind Corn in the Ear and
Shuck, l consented that he should do so as an ex-
pertinent; and l am able TO say that it grlnds
Corn in the Shuck at the rate of 30 bushels per
hour; and the dressing Of the stones Is so lmproV-
ed, that it grinds shelled Corn more than twice as
last as before, and by my watch, at the rate OF 10
bushels per hour and the meal finer than usual.
deem ii valuable improvement, and shall pur-
chase the right TO use II, it will afford me
speedy way OF feeding my horses and cattle, AMI
