nary run the whole machinery being comprised
in space of "a by feet, all within the imme-
date notice Of the millcr,--burr, boiling chest,
and all. The burrs now used are only 80 inch
es. This is great Improvement on all devices
for the manufacture of Flour hitherto in use,
and the entire machinery can be put up in any
Mill for about the expense incurred by getting
a Millwri5ht to repair the old style mills. Mill
ers and those about To put up Mills, are invited
to call at Murgentown Mills, and witness and ex-
anime tho operation of Clark's Patent, before
wasting money in putting up the supernuous APP
