The German papers give particular and
Interesting account of the recent discovery

individual, named KAReRz. prosecuted the
search with the utmost tact and persever-
ance. He started on The principle that The
secret could have been impaired 10 but few
persons, and that they must have chosen
some point which could be easily found, by
themselves or messengers, even after the
lapse of years. The search lasted several
months, in all wenthers, by daylight and
moonlight. Every uplurned cod. every
bush, tree, broken branch, stone, rut or
scratch was noted.
Finally, il was concluded that the desired
sign must be sought among the trees, and nj

noticed that branches found eniungled in the

Lull's Patent French Burr, or Stone
SNTL II MACHINES.


7 is universally admitted by Millers, that in Or
4 der to manufacture superior quality of -four,
the grain must be freed from all foreign matter,
such as Smut, Rat Dung, Fuz, Dust, ETC., and
therefore resort is had to Rolling Screens, Fans,
and Smut or as they are more properly called,
Securing Machines. 1t is, however, well known
to Millers that no part of their machinery has so
utterly failed to perform its duty for reasonable
length of time, as Smut Machines, made of iron.
Large amounts of time and money have been ex-
pended on them: invention after invention re-
sorted to, until iron has been cut bent, twisted,
turned, and moulded into all shapes and forms,
and after short trial, seldom exceeding two years
they have failed to answer the purpose, not for
any fault in their construction, as is generally
supposed, but Tor the obvious reason that iron,
whether wrought or cast. will not give and retain
the edge that is as requisite in securing as in
grinding grain, and without which, as the edge
cannot be renewed, the Machine is useless. The
attempt has been often made to manufacture Mill
Stones of iron, but has always been abandoned,
for the reason that when the iron stones became
smooth, the edge could not be renewed, and they
were thereby rendered useless. 1t is well eStab
lished that no machine will scour grain well with
out an edge, or rough surface, consequently that
material which furnishes the greatest amount Of,
and most durable edge is the proper substance o
French Burr seems to have been designed by ma.
ture for securing, as well as for grinding grain
and every Millers knowledge OF that materia
must satisfy him that, owing to its fine, keen, ant
durable edge, and the ease with which that edge
can be renewed, itmust take the precedence, ant
finally the place, of iron machines for securing
grain.
These Nachines have more edge, or rough sur
face, than any iron machines, consequently re
quire less motion, and less power to do the SAINT
amount of work; they are so constructed tina
they can be taken down and the edge renewed il
two hours. This they will not need more THAI
once in two years, if at all. They are got up il
the bes. manner, are sent from the shop ready 70
the belt, and may be put up in halfa day, in an
part of mill, without being enclosed-no dus
escapes from them, it being drawn up, as soon a
it is separated from the wheat, by suction fan
and discharged through the fan, and spout, ou
OF the mill, thus saving large amount of Labor
by freeing the mill of much filth usually depoSite
in it by Iron Machines.
l These Machines are used IN 600 of the beS
mills IN the country-they run light, clean. fas
and are very durube. We annex few reference
and certificates from millers who are using then
