in operation one of \. 4 J. NJ. Ciark's Patent FIGURING
Mills. have been running II on an average of from eight
70 twelve hours without stopping, and should do so forty
eight hours Ii required. slt gives every satisfaction that

never seen anything Of the kind so near perfection. i live
in ~Sadsburg, Chester County, Pa, two miles from Parkers-
burg, where I run il daily, and my customers will testify
10 the satisfaction Of their flour and bran. Ihave travelled
through nine of the Western States, and il supersedes
any thing l have ever seen.

CHICAGO. November IS, 1855.
This Is TO certify that ! have been furnishing power aud
room for the operation of one Of T. u J, al. Clarkis Patent
Flour Mills, for the last few month, and in my opinihn il
Is the best and cheapest mill in use. 1t takes but little
power in comparison 70 other mills, not needing over six
horse power, and has run, since ! have been acquainted
with il, with NO cost for repairs, and seems in as good
condition now as when first put up. j can cheeTfuily rec
onmend ii to all who wish to engaged in the manufacture
-four, either on . large or small scale. II can be set up
and run in connection with any other machinery, such as
Grain Elevators, Saw Mills, and by combining three OF
four sets OF burrs and bolts, you will hayea Mill that viii
do more work than the large Merchant mills OF the old
kinds, and a great saving in every item OF expense.
