For grinding Fine Meal for Family use; Crush

IN bringing the above Mil before the Farm
q ers of Bedford and Lincoln counties. re-
Y solely upon the merits of the Mill, and moi
upon the hundred certificates and paid news
paper puts that frequently accompany Inven-
tons of very little and often of no practical
value The favorable impression which this
Mill makes on the minds of all who see il
perform, induces the belief that there is not
One Es,teili2cuf Practical Farmer
who will fail to be thoroughly convinced OF
its great utility, fitness and perfect adaptation
to the wants of the Planter.
It shells twenty bushels Of corn per hour.
brushes corn and cob together ten bushels. and
grinds three bushels per hour of good fine
meal. The power used, is two ordinary horses
or mules, or yoke of oxen-draft lighter than
ploughing The time is now here when oil
s.0ck rqisels throughout the South. are becom-
ing more and more convinced of the actual
necessity Of crushing and grinding every ear
of corn and cob together. which they feed
their stock, whether they be horses. hogs or
COWS, and if they fail to do this, they will
soon learn that o51e-ha7f of the corn which
they have labored to produce, is utterly lost.
1t is an admitted fact, proven by ANALYSIS.
the experience of the most practical Farmers.
and most reliable and authentic Agricultural
works, that sirty po,elis. of corn ground is equal
to one hundred mt grounf and that the cob
contains one-fourth as much nutriment as the
corn grown upon 1t. 1t IS also admitted that
stock (young or old) fed on ground food, are
not only more healthy and thrifty, but will ac-
tlially fatten in onethirl less time. Again it
IS well known that the a, petite Of Stock is not
satisfied until diStersion of the stomach is
produced, and the stomach of any animal
(ghen fed upon clear corn will hold twice as
much nutriment rs digestion can extract, con-
segGently total loss of. one-half of the ami
mails food is the result, passing through the
stomach before It can he properly digested-
There iSno way by which corn can be reduced
to proper consistency for food for any ami
NAL, so that the stomach when filed, may
contain no moro nutritious matter than tiiges-
ton can extract, other than by grinding or
crushing the corn. and mixing itwith food less
nutritious, and nothing is better adapted to
answer that purpose than the cob.
Farmers who try silis mode Of
feeding one ye;sP,.will never afterwards
throw one ear to their stock lncround
The great beauty of this Mil is its Dura.
s,ELity. Utility and simplicity, being
the Sreatestmopey saving machine ever in
vented for the Farmer There is no gearing
attached to twill last an ordinary lifetime
nothing to get out of order--is simple and ca
silly understood, and managed BY one hand
Every statement made about this Mil is SELF
eride,at to all who see perform. All farmers
who consume as much lis one hundred barrels
of corn per annum, should be iii possession Of
one Of these Mills, as by its use, they will syon
save enough to pay for it. The farmer must
save all Remnants OF Produce, as well
as the merchant, who nicely folds away fire
cents worth of the oldest calico in the store
Farmers, your corn now commands fair
price, and IS it not to your own pecuniarv in
terest to save every barrel Of it you can, Buv
one Of these Mills, and that object will be ef-
fected. The Mill will be furnished Won and
put up on your plantation III running order.
for the very small sum Of Seventy-Fiye
Dollars! How pleasant 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, | am prepared to fill all or
ders for Mills at the shortest notice One Of
the Mills can be seen in operation in Shelby
vile, at e. d. Dromgoole's Livery Stable
where the farmers are particularly invited to
examine and see it grind. You need not be
afraid gentlemen. it will bear testing. One Of
the Mills viii soon be in operation in Fayette-
viIley of which due notice will be given See
it grind, crush and shell. then pass Judgment
and not till then. All orders for the Mill, left
with Mr. f. DDromgoole at Shelbyvilie. will
be promptly attended to by me-. All commu-
nications respecting the Mil. addressed to me
