novesbe rings, In hard and superior metal and
which, when out be repa ed in five minutes bv
new rings at cost OF g. which makes the mill as good
as new there being other part liableto Two
sets OF grinding rings accompany each mill making it
equal to two mills. This peculiarly, possessed BY no
her MILL should not be overlooked bE purchasers as it
nsures durability consideration OF all Others the
important.
Another interesting feature in this mill and one which
we think will secure tor just consideration of merit
IN Its being provided with meal conductor by of
which the meal is discharged into half bushe instead
OF being scattered around the MILL is ordinarily the
case.

the late Fair Of the Maryland Agricultural Society," the
Ohio State Fair and elsewhere all Of which establish
