IT The best and cheapest now In use.
THIS Mill differs from all others in the construction
of the upper or runner stone, which IS composed
of French Burr Blocks enclosed in cast-lron case,
and forms the back and hoop OF the stone with cast
iron eve or bush, that is OF greater externa diameter
at the bottom than at the top IS secured 10 the oack
nv four bolts so that every block is In the form OF
doveta which giyes greater strength stone than
any other method that required In small mills Where
the stone is run with great speed and becomes DANCE
rous if not strongly made It also gives any weight
to stone of small dameter.tha is required without
making it thick or high.
They can be by either gin horse, water or steam
power and require milwright to set them up
ADVANTAGES:
1st Sufficient weight in the stone to crush
the grst without having to supply to the run
ner stone from the driving power, most unduatory
mills have do; this is of great importance when horse
power is used.
I'd. When the stone is running its own momentum
acts like the fly wheel of engine, affording regu
ariy and speed to its motion. If mill does not run
true and regularyou cannot make good meal or flour
/ 3d. The stone is composed of or French burr
blocks, because single blocks of sufficient size cannot
be had without having soft OF imperfect places in
them.
4th The stone having this great weight is enabled to
grind the centre larger quantity with less pow
er than any other mill now in use.
5th This mill is a square frame, made OF wood, in
the form of husk: the "a inch occupying space of
only or 5 feet square.
9th. This mill is simply and strongly constructed
and less liable to get out OF order than other mill
and does not require mlwright to set them up.
It'll. The gearing and pules of these mills all
Of iron and preferable because there never is
cessy of crossing the band of extra puies keep
it in place; the band does get cut and worn as in
the of single geared Mills is there danger in
putting the band off the pulley in single gear
mills.
BY the steady application of steam power, the "a
inch mill will grind 10 bushels per hour, of good
meal, and will grind wheat as well as corn. The 80
inch mill will grind 12 to Is bushels per hour the SO
inch 20 bushels per hour with proper speed.
More than $500 of these mills have been used, prn
cpally in the south and west and have any been
returned from failing to please. The above mill is
warranted togve entire satisfactionor may be

We have no premium certificates from scientific
ceties to refer to- having asked for them, 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 mill,
cannot build reputation for it by clustering chal
lenges, by comparison, other mill manufacturers
do with ours.
If mill will sell without premium certificates or
windy challenges for public trials with mills of admit.
ted superioritys for there is danger of their trying
their mill with inferior one) others do with ours,
buncomb advertisements, then will sell,
for we shall never descend to either method.
When wants to sell You mill and tells you
that ID inch, Is inch 20 inch mill will grind IA
to 90 bushels per hour, look the hole through the
stones and see halt that quantity of would pass
