THIS Mill differs from all others in the construction
L Of the upper runner stone which is composed
OF French Burr Blocks, enclosed in cas-iron 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 IL secured to the back
by four bolts, that every block is in the form of
dovetai, which gives greater strength 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 It also gives any weigh,
to stone of small diameter that is required, without
making it thick or high.
They can be run by either gin, horse water steam
power, and require no mwright to set them up
ADVANTAGES:
1st. Sufficient weight in the runner stone crush
the gris without having to supply pressure to the
stone from the driving power, most undulatory
mills have to do this is of great importance when horse
power is used.
I'd. When the stone is running its momentum
acts like the fly wheel of engine affordng regu-
larity and speed to its notion If mill does not run
true and regularly you cannot make good meal -four.
Sd. The stone is composed of or 5 French burr
blocks, because single blocks of sufficient size cannot
be had without having soft or imperfect places in
them.
4th The sors having this great weight is enabled to
grind the centre larger quantity with less pow
than any other mill now in use.
5th. This mill is square frame, made of wood, in
the form ola husk: the "a inch occupying space Of
only or feet square,
9th. This mill is simply and strongly constructed
and less liable to get of order than any other MILL
and does not reg ire millwright to set them up
18th. The gearing and pullies of these mills are all
of iron and preferable because there never is ne
cessy of crossing the band Of pulles 10 keep
il in place; the hand does get and as in
the OF sngte geared mills; is there danger in
putting the band on off the pulley in single gear
mills ...r4
BY the steady application of steam power, the %
inch mill will grind to % bushels per hour of good
meal, and will grind wheat well as corn. The 80
inch mill will grind II to Is bushels per hour; the So
inch ~ or more bushels per hour with proper speed
More than $500 of these mills have been used prin-
cpaly in the south and west and never have any been
returned from failing to please. The above mill is
warranted to give entire satisactono may be return
ed at our expense.
We have no premium certificates from scientific So
cietles to refer to, never having asked for the but
we do refer. with 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
enges, or by comparison, ohe. mill manuiac urers
do with ours.
Ii mill will not sell without premium certificates or
windy challenges, for public trials with mills of admit
ed superorty@ or there is danger of their trying
heir mill with inferior one) as others do with ours,
II buncomb advertisements, then ours will never SELL
or we shall never descend to either method.
When man wants to sell you mill and tells you
hat IA inch Is inch, 2U inch mill will grind IA
o ~ bushels per hour look the hole through the
tones and see malt that quantity of would pass
trough without grinding at ell. !
