Having h+come the patentces and proprietors Of Ed

FIGURING MILL,
For the State OF Iowa, wenow offer County, Township City
and shop rightsaad Mills for sale on favorable terms, We

of this month, when we advise all to call and see II, ant
they will say, as did the ancient Queen of sheba, sthe
Mllers, farmers, capitalists and Spectators will find
this mill presents a rare chance for a safe, sure and prof
liable investment
This highly ingenious and much needed invention
forms an entire new feature in the manufacture OF wheat
into -four, and the splendid manner in which it performs
its work, grinding. boiling and separating the grain at a
| single operation into seven different qualities OF Flour
and Feed. and that within a space of only twenty five feet
in length by four feet in BREADTH, at the rapidly Of over
| twelve bushels per hour ON a pair of French burr mill
stones only thirty inches in diameter. The Grain Is con-
vcrted at 4 single operation into Extra aud ~Superfne
| Flour, Fine Flour, Middlings, Ship Stans. Bran and shorts
at a single operation, any power being applicable to pro-
pei IL, from a four horse power up TO any other desired.
The small space it occupies would not be missed when
placed in 4 room with other machinery, and the small
amount Of power it requires TO propcl it, its economy In
construction and operation, makes it certain that, ere
long, it will supersede aud revoiutionize all other Flour
ing Mills. Themilis COMPACT, substantial and reliable,
not liable to get ont Of order. So applicable is it TO the
wauts of the world, that every saw mill, machine shop,
locomotive shop, foundry, forge, rolling mill, or any build
ing having a power already erected, can new have within
its walls a complete Merchan; flonring Mil At the ti-
fling expense of from four TO seven hundred dollars.
CAurioS.-Al persons in want OF FIGURING Mills
throughout the STATE are ADVISED TO wait and come ana
sec our Mill in operation before purchasing, and all per-
sous are hereby warned from trrspassiug or Infringing on
our rights, as we shall maintain them to the strict letter
of the law,
These Mills will make over Fifty Barrels of Flour every
twents-four hours.

LANCASTER, January 90 1855.
Messrs. EpwR Il JAMES NJ. CLARK:
Having been present al the operation of your newly
patepted Combined Grinding aud Boiling, OF Merchant
FIGURING Mil, on the above date, as previously snnonnc-
ed, WI do not hesitate to say, that after witnessing its
operation, and examining the machine in all its parts,
and the small space il occupies, being only 81 feet, by
d AM above all, the extraordinary quantity Of wheat
that il is capapk ofcouvertiug iuto -four, and that Of the
best quality, ana withal, yielding fully as much Hour
from the wheat ground as usually obtained in the old
way, we unhesitaiingly say that il has accomplished all
that was announced Tor it 10 do. The quantity Of wheat
ground on the trial referred to was IL bushels per hour,
which is more than We have ever known TO be done Win
Que palr OF bnrrs in the best constructed mills III our
country, or any where else. Thus rendering II al once
the most superior aud economics linyehfiono OF the age Tor
the conversion Of wheat Into -four, and which We think
must recommend itseh 10 all who are interested IN the
amount of power required to propel it, when compared
with the common Touring mills, taking Into eonsidera-
ton the amount OF WORK performed in either case. Ihs
stones on which the above mentioned wheat was ground
being only 80 ineees in diameter, and making about $50
revolutions per minute, and the boiting oil the meal teing
done at the same time, SO eiiectuaLly AS TO convert the
wheat at a single operation into SIX Inherent qualities OF
-four aed feed. nameiy-eNtra, supreme, hne and mlu-
ding -four, siipstun ana bran. Taxing INTO the oonslde-
ration the excellent combinations OF the inherent parts
of the mill, and viewing II as We THINK II Is, not only
worthy the attention Of those about to engage IN the
milling business, but OF those already 80 engaged, on nc
count ofthe economy in the cost OF construction, the
small space it occupies, the greater quantity Of gram 1t
IS capable of grinding per hour, which Is tnily treble the
quantity ground on one OF the tour ieet ourrs now IN
general use in our county, and that with no more power
than is apparently required for a four foot burr, we wonid
respectfully say &c all, whether interested In the milling
business OF not, to call and examine for themselves, as
the inventors and proFr1etors OF this valuable improve
ment manifest no disposltion To deceive the puohe.
