tons Of very little and often of no practical
value. Thdfavorable impression which this
Mill makes on the minds Of all who see it
perform induces the belief that there is rot
One Intelligent Practical Farmer

its great utility fitness and perfect adaptation
to the wants bf the Planter
It shells twenty bushels of corn per hour,
brushes corn hnd cob togeth ef ten bushels and
grinds TIRED bushels per hour of good fue
meal. The power used, is two ordinary horses
or mules, or yoke of oxen-draft lighter than
ploughing. The time is nov here when al
stocs roiserS throughout the South. arc becom m
ing more and more convinced of the actual
necessity of crushing and grinding every ear
of corn and cob together, which ftey feed
their stock, whether they be horses hogs or
cows, and if they fail to do this, they will
soon learn that oae-haIf of the corn which
they have abored to produce, is utterly lost.
1t is an admitted fact, proven by ANALYSIS
the experienFe of the most practical Farmers
and most reEable and authentic Agricultural
works, that sFrty pounds of corn ground is equal
to one hund,t d not ground. and that the cob
contains onet fourth as much nutriment as the
corn grown Upon it. 1t is also admitted that
stock (young or old) fed On ground food, are
not only more healthy and thrifty, but will ac-
tually fatten in one-thrd less time. Again it
is well known that the appetite of Stock is not
satisfied until distension of the stomach is
produced, and the stomach of any animal
(when fed upon clear corn) will hold twice as
much nutrinI ent as digestion can extract, con-
sequently total loss of one-half of the ami
mails food is the result, passing through the
stomach before it can be properly digested.-
These is no way by which corn can be reduced
to aSproper consistency for food for any ami I
NAL so that the stomach when filled, nav
contain no more nutritious matter than dges-
tien can extract other than by grinding or
crushing the corn, and mixing it with food less /
nutritious, and nothing is better adapted to
a rswer that purpose than the cob
sarmeFs who try this I'm ode of

throw one ctr to their stock ,Hagrou'ad.

Every erhent'made about this Mil is self
s0ident to al who see perform. All farmers
who consume rs much as one hundred bdrreis
Of cern per dnnum, should be in possessid n of
one of these Mills, as by It's use, they will soon
save enough to pay forit. The farmer must
save all skef INFANTS of Produce, as we'll
as the mcrch ant, who nicely folds awaF fre

Farmers, hour corn now commands a fair
price. and Isl it not to your own pecaniary in
terest to save every barrel of it YOU can! Buy
one of these Mills Ind that ohiectwill he ef-
fected. The Mill will be furnished you and
put up on your plantation in running order,

Dollars. How pleasast it would be for
every farmer to be enabled to DO all of his own
grinding at home. Having purchased the
Patent Right for the counties of Bedford, Lin
coin and Franklin, 4 am prepared to ell all or
