LuII's Patent French Burr, or Stone
SNVT T MACHINES.

I r is universally admitted by Mllers, thatin or
4 der to manufacture asuperiorquality OF flour,
the grain must be freed from all foreign matter,
such as Smut, Rat Dung, Fuz, Dust, etc., and
therefore resort is had 10 Rolling Screens, Fans,
and Smut or as they are more properly called,
Scouting Machines, II is, however, well known
to Millers, that no part OF their machinery has so
utterl, 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 ior 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 Maohineis 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-
lshed that no machine will scour grain well with
out an edge, or rough surface, consequently tnat
material which furnishes the greatest amount oil,
and most durable edge, is the proper substance OF
which to construct Smut OF Securing Machines.

ture for securing, as well as for grinding grain;
and every Miller's knowledge OF that material
must satisfy him that, owing to its fine keen, and
durable edge, and the ease with which that edge
can be renewed, it tmust take the precedence, and
finally the place, of iron machines for securing
grain.
These Machnes5ss more edge, or rough sur
face, than any isimpokhines, consequently re-

part of mill, without being enclosed-no dus
escapes from them, it being drawn up, as soon

by freeing the mill of much filth usually deposite
in it by Iron Machines.
These Machines are used IN 600 of the bes
mills IN the country-they run light, clean. fas
and are very duruble. We annex few reference
and certificates from millers who are using then

now in use in our mill two of your Burr Sml
Machines they work to our entire satisfaction
+ They are durables not liable to get out of orde
