CORN AND FIGURING MILLS.
| u The best and cheapest now in use.
TvHIS Mill differs from aofhers in the construction
+ or the upper Or runner stone, which is composed
of French Burr Blocks, enclosed in cast-is0n case
and forms the back and hoop of the stone, with cast
iron eye bush, that is Of greater external diameter
at the bottom than the top is secured to the back
by four hoss SO that every block is in the form of
doveta which gives greater strength to stone than
any other method that required IN small mills where
the stone is with great speed and becomes DANCE
rous if not strongly made It also gives any weight
to stone of small diameter that is required, without
making il thick or high.
They can be run BY either GIN horse. water steam
power, and require mwright to setthem up.
Ms ADVANTAGES:
lst Sufficient weight in the runner stone 10 crush
the gris without having supply pressure to the
ner stone from the driving power. unduatory
mills have dos this is OF great importance when horse
power is used. go
3D. When the stone is running its own momentum
acts like the fy wheel of engine, afording regu-
larity and speed its notion If mill does not run
true and regular you cannot make good meal -four.
Sd. The stone is composed of or French burr
blocks. because single blocks OF sufficient size
be had without having soft imperfect places in
them.
4th The having this grea, weigh; is enabled to
grind the centre larger quantity with less pow
er than any other mill now in use.
9Th. This mill is square frame, made of wood, in
the form of husk: the 24 inch occupying space of
only or feet square.
9Th. This mill is simply and strongly constructed
and less liable get Of order than any other MILL
and does not require millwright 10 set them up.
It'll. The gearing and pullies of these mills all

rin place: the band does get cut and as in
the case Of single geared mills nor is there danger in
putting the baud off the pulley as in single gear
mills
BY the steady application of steam power, the "a
inch mill will grind to 10 bushels per hour, of good
meal, and will grind wheat as well as corn. The 80
inch mill will grind u Is bushels per hour the So
inch 90 bushels per hour with proper speed.
More than $500 of these mills have been used, prin
cpay in the south and west, and have any been
returned from falling to please The above mill is
warranted to give entire sa.isfactonor may be
ed at expense.
We have no premium certificates from scientific So
cieties refer to, 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 mill,
We cannot build reputation for it by clustering chal
enges, or BY comparison, other mill manufacturers
do with
fa mill will not sell without premium certificates or
windy challenges for public trials with mills of admit
ed superiority. or there no danger of their trying
heir mill with inferior one,) others do with ours,
or buncomh advertisements, then will never SELL
or we shall never descend to either method
When man wants, to sell you mill and tells you
hat Ii inch lS inch, Do inch mill will grind IA
0 90 bushels per hour look at the hole through the
tones and see half that quantity of corn would pass
through without grinding al all.
