Sore ,,o,,r Corr Co5s and Shucks.

TO TIFF PLANTERS AND MIILERs OF NORTH
CAROLINA.
ITEVHE undersigned has obtained Letters Patent
l. to enable common Mill stones Cor rocks) now
IN use, to grind CORN, COB and SHUCK, into
meal, for Horses, Mules, Cattle, Hogs, &C., there
by saving more than one third Of crop, which is
an important item with planters. The machinery
used for the above purpose is simple and durable,
and cannot, with fair means, get out OF order 1t
will last as long as the Stones last with an expense
of SO cents every five years. To enable the com
mon Mill Stones to grind corn into meal, re-
quires no new buildings extra power. 1t can
also be applied to Horse Mills, Threshlng Ma
chimes, Gins, any given power known. Inc
same Mill will grind one-third more of Corn Meal
by the introduction of this Machinery, and can be
changed from grinding Corn and Cob to grinding
orn Meal in the space of thirty seconds. Corn
alone when fed to stock is said to be by the most
practical and scientific Planters constituting IN It's
effects, producing founders, chollcs and various
other nlalades which are incdnt to stock. Grind
ing cobs with the Com, makes food congenial
with their nature, and cannot produce any of the
serious results above mentioned. Stock, when fed
on Corn exclusively, are deprived of the benefits Of
distension $50 necessary to the proper health of an
imals,) by their being unable to eat sufficient
bulk to produce distension before the anima be-
comes gorged. Cobs ground with the corn, pro-
duce the necessary distension, without any danger
of diseases arising from overeating. Corn and cob
meal is improved by scaIdng, and still more by
boiling, and yet more by partial fermentation.-
All the preparations facilitate digestion for Hogs.
But Horses and Mules will not eat fermented food,
consequently they will require it dry or partially
wet with cold water. Horses Mules and Oxen,
when fed with unground food, void much in an
undigested state aUhich IS of course lost for oil BEN

CERTIFICATE.
Having been solicited by Maj. Collins to have
my Mill adjusted to grind Corn in the Ear and

PERTINENT and am able to say that it grinds Corn

and the dressing of the stones is so improved, that
it grnds sheIled Curn more than twice as fast as
before, and by my watch, at the rate of bushels
per hour, and the meal finer than usual. deem
it valuable improvement, and shall purchase the
right to use it, as it will afford speedy way o..

THE CLEANER.
Lightly DER the waving meadow
SwellS the reaper's shout;
Like a burst of pleasant music
Ringing gladly out;
And the sound came soft and clear
To the weary cleaners ear;
Noontide sunshine warm and golden,
- Quivered through tho air,
While in dreams of hours long parted.
Still she fingered there.
Leaning on the little gateway,
With thoughtful eye.
Calling up unfaded memories,
From the times gone by:
Here her life had passed away,
Like varied summers day;
For if clouds had paled her sunshine
With colder CLEAN,
Still the love that fingered through it,
Was a summer beam.
Here in hildhood-hapPy-h hearted,
In her merry glee,
She had found a mute companion,
In each waving tree;
For each leaflets breezy stir,
Brought thought of home to her:
Bearer than the feeting fancies
Of the proud and great,
Were the gentle cleaners musings,
At the rustic gate.
