,HIS Mill differs from all others in the construction
i of the upper or runner stone, which is composed
of French Burr Blocks, enclosed in cast-ron case
and forms the back and hoop of the stone, with
iron eye bush, that is of greater external diameter
the bottom than the top is secured to the back
by four bolts, so that every block is in the form of
doveta, which gives greater strength a than
any other method that is required in small mills where
the is with great speed and becomes DANCE
rous if strongly made 1t also gives any weigh.
to of small diameter that is required without
making it thick or high. 5z'-"'
They can be run by either gin horse, water steam
power, and require mwright to set them up. "
ADVANTAGES:
Ist Sufficient weight in the runner stone to crush
the gris without having to supply pressure the
ner stone from the driving power, unduatory
mills have do this is of great importance when horse
power is used z-. -l-,., -.ex
ID. When the stone is running its momentum
acts like the fly wheel of engine affordng regu-
lxfty and speed to its motion. If mill does moi run
and regular you cannot make good meal flour.
Sd. The stone is composed of or S French burr
blocks because single blocks Of sufficient size cannot
be had without having soft imperfect places in

4h. The stone having this great weight is enabled
grind the centre larger quantity with less pow
er than any other mill now in use. ,--- Ill
5th. This mill is square frame, made of wood, in
the form of husk: the "a inch occupying space of
only or feet square. .Tf 5=.-- r.
9Th This mill is simply and strongly constructed
and less liable get of order than any other MILL
and does not require millwright to set them up.
7th. The gearing and pullies of these mills are all
of iron and preferable because there never is ne
cessty of crossing the band of puies keep
it in places the band does not get cut and worn in
the of single geared mills; is there danger in
putting the band off the pulley as in single gear
mills.
BY the steady application of steam power, the "a
inch mill viii grind to 10 bushels per hour, Of good
meal, and will grind wheat as well as corn. The 80
inch mill will grind 70 to Is bushels per hour; the SO
inch 20 or more bushels per hour with proper speed
More than $500 of these mills have been used, prin-
cipay in the south and west and never have any been
returned from failing to please. The above mill is
warranted to give entire satisfaction or may be return
ed at our expense.
We have premium certificates from scientific So
ciees to refer to, never having asked for them but
we do refer with some pride, to about twenty-five
hundred persons who have purchased and used our
mills. There being equal or superior to our mill,
We cannot build reputation for it by clustering cha-
lenges, or by comparison other mill manufacturers
do with ours.
fla mill will not sell without premium certificates or
windy challenges for public trials with mills of admit
ted superorty* or there is danger of their trying
their mill with an inferior one others do with ours
or buncomb advertisements then ours will never SELL
for shall never descend to either method
When man wants to sell you mill and tells You
that Ia inch, Is inch, or 90 inch mill will grind Ii
10 90 bushels per hour, look at the hole through the
stones and see if halt that quantity of would pass
through without grinding at all. +
