We have remarked that the great and heretofore nsur
mountaole objection, urged with much force against
cstlron mills, WAS their palpabe deficiency in durability
To remove this objection was desideratum long sought

moVeaoe rings, made In hard and superior metal and
which, when worn out be repla sed five minutes BY
new rings at cost of S. which makes the mill as good
as new there being no other part iabeto out Two
sets VI grinolng rings accompany each MILL making it
equal TO two mills This peculisrity possessed BY no
her MILL should not be overlooked BY purchasers as it
usures durability, consideration of all others the most
important,
Another interesting feature in this mill and one which
we think will secure for just consideration of merit
Ia ITS being provided with meal conductor by of
which the meal s discharged into half bushel instead
OF 0elGg scattered around the mill, as is ordinarily the
case
