NoTE-Mr Kimball, the partner Of ]. H. Burrows
while exhibiting Burrows MILL State fair last
fall, was boiserous about his MILL and courageously
entered into verbal agreement with me to grind corn
thus: Whoever grinds the most regarding quality and
quantity to be the owner of both mills at each and
every trial:
First trial--straub to run an eighteen inch MILL
Burrows & Co. twenty inch mill.
End trial-Straub to run a twenty-five inch mill
&c Burrows & Co. to run "a inch mill
Ord trial-Straub to 26 inch mill.
&C Burrows & Co. to 81 inch mill.
When the pinch came, that bolsterous courage slipped
.....ar
To the above, I now append challenge to grind cob
feed out of whole ears OF corn.
| will run my eighteen inch QUEEN OF THE SOUTH,
with a Cob Breaker attachment, the same article that
took the Premium at the Chic State Fair last tall against
twenty four inch Burrows mill, and Wm Stewards
Ohio and Kentucky Stock Feed Mills, both to be at
once; and if you apprehensive of risky business,
you have my entire appreciation to run Mr. Pomeroys
crusher auxiliary. Should my single article
fail to grind equal in quality and quantity to the COM
bined productions of the three mills Gust you
please) then you draw few hundred dollars as
stakes put up. Come boys, don't be cowardly-there
is nothing like walking straight into the merits of
thing. ISAAC STRAUB.
