most formidable of which was their of duraiIitv on
liability soon to wear out he again work with the
view OF removing the Objectionable features In February
e5S ne succeeded IN obtaining letters patent for the Ex

the Uned States standing it does the head of the
hstoi CornCTushers combining the good qualities of all
exem1t from the defects and possessing many new
'au1D and distinguishing features of which all others
destitute.
We have remarked that the great and heretofore insur.
m"uuiaoie objection, urged with much force against
cstiron mills, their palpabe deficiency in durability
To remove this OBJ ecton desideratum long sought
Tor, aud which has been at length attained in the Excel.
sor MIL only the grinding surface of which consists In
mOveabe rings, made in hard and superior metal and
which, when out be repa ed in five minutes by
new rings at cost Of 50 which makes the mill good
as new there being no other part ableIO out Two
setts OF grinding rings accompany each mill making it
'qu4l to Two mills This pecu'iarty possessed by no
her mill, should not be overlooked by purchasers, it
nsures durability consideration of all others the most
Important.
Another interesting feature in this mill and one which
think will Just consideration of merit is
IN It's being provided with meal conductor by of
which the meal is discharged into half bushel instead
OF belcg scattered around the MILL is ordinarily the
case
This mill having been fairly tested with other mills at
the le talr of the Maryland Agricultural Society," at the
ohOSate Fair and elsewhere all of which establish
ed It's superiority do not hesitate emphatiesy pro-
n0unce preemnently superior to any and all other
crushers of the day, independent of its movable grinding
rings, which feature of itself makes the distinction be-
tween the Excelsior and all other cOrncrushers broad
as oreuder comparison superHnous ano, evidence
Of our snceriIy hereby announce that will give
silver cup to any Corn Crusher that be produced of
tue same size and same length of lever, that will grind
inner and faster than the Excelsior and place

Capacity OF grinding corn and cobs with tive horses
from 3 10 % and witt one horse from 10 10 bushels per

Cost of Running the Excelsior Mill for Ten
ieaEs,
Compared pith that IF other NIUs in at this time
II has been proven by exp rience and contrary gen.
ersl expectation, that cast Mills for grinding Corn,
etc., 70 90 the work properly will not last than two
Years Ia of thus fact the inventor OF the Excelsior
Mil has labored TO produce machine that will be
economical and at the same time eectual The eol
loving estimate will show he of grinding with each
Of the Mus now ia for ten years:
Cost OF Excelsior hl $50, including an extra set of
rlndng Plates which maj good for years. Cost
OF repairs for years So making for years $59
Cost OF cOmmoa Mills, with out any extras says $44-
# running the Ior years. surprising that the
Mil viii last lODgas the Exceaor Mill without repairs,
must be done al the expense of machine each time
$40 making for the leu years cost of 1920. This
rne Will apply t0any and all of the Mills III which
come ID competition with the Excelsior Mill
Farmers and others IN want mills for grinding Corn
and Cob etc. will by the above estimate that the E1
cesor I be used for the purpose required at less
tnau third the expense Of other Mill in
Ihls Mil may be put up in few minutes by any ordi
nary farm hand, printed directions for which accompany
each Mil.
