CORN AND FIGURING MILLS.


u The best and cheapest now in use
THIS Mill differs from all others in the construction
4 Of the upper Or runner stone, which is composed
o; French Burr Blocks enclosed in q cagt-iron case
and forms the back and hoop Of the stone with cast
iron eye bush, That is Of greater external diameter
al the bottom than the top, is secured to the back
By four bolts, that every block is in the form Of
doFetaj, which gives greater strength to stone than
any other method that is required in small mills where
the stone Is with great speed and becomes DANCE
rous If not strongly made. Il also gives any weight
to stone Of small diameter that is require6 without
making il thick or high
They csn be ran by either GIN horse water or steam
power, and require no miIl~right to set them up.
ADVANTAGES:
lst Sufficient weight in the runner stone TO crush
the gris without having supply pressure to the run
from the driving power az most undulatorv
mills have to do this Is OF atmgorance when horse
power is used.
I'd. When the stone is running its own momentum
ike the fly wheel OF an engine affordng regu-
laTity and speed to its motion. If mill does not run
true and reguaryou cannot make good meal or -four.
3D. The stone IS composed OF 4 or 5 French burr
blocks because single blocks Of sufficient size cannot
be had without having soft or imperfect places in
them.
Attn. The stone having this great weight is enabled to
grind the centre larger quantity with less pow
er than any other mill now in use.
5th. This mill is square frame, made of wood in
the form off husk: the "a inch occupying space OF
only 4 or feet square. i
9Th. This mill is simply and strongly constructed
and less liable get out of order than any other MILL
and does not require millwrigh to set them up.
7th. The gearing and pgilies Of these mills are all
Of iron and preferable because there never is me-
cessy Of crossing the band Of extra pues 10 keep
it in place; the band does not get and worn as in
the Of single geared mills; is there danger in
putting the band or of the pulley 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 well as corn. The 60 |
inch mill will grind II to Is bushels per hour the Sc
inch 30 or more bushels per hour with proper speed
More than $500 Of these mills have been used, prin-
cpaly in the sonth and west, and have any been
from failing to please. The above mill is
give entire satisfaction or may be return
ed at expense.
We have premium certificates from scientific So
cieties refer to, having asked for them, but
do refer, with pride, about twenty five
hundred persons who have purchased and used our
mills. There being no equal or superior to our mill
We cannot build reputation for it by clustering ehal
enges, or by comparison, other mill manufacturers
do with
If mill will not sell without premium certificates or
windy challenges for public trials with mills of admit
ted superiorty* for there is danger Of their irving
their mill with inferior one,) others do with ours
Or buncomb advertisements then will never SELL
or shall never descend to either method.
When man wants to sell you mill and tells you
hat IA inch IL inch, or 20 inch mill will grind IA
% 30 bushels per hour, look at the hole through the
stones and see II halt that quantity OF would pass
through without grinding al all.
