J.H. BURROWS, PATENT PLANTATION
CORN AND FIGURING MILLS.
i u The best and cheapest in use.
iHIS Mill differs from all Others in the construction
Il OF the upper or runner stone, which is composed
of French Burr Blocks, enclosed in cast-iron case
and forms the back and hoop Of the stone, with
iron eye bash that is of greater external diameter
at the bottom than at the top, is secured the back
by four bolts that every block is in the form of
doyetai which gives greater strength to stone than
any other method that Is required in small mills where
the stone is with great speed and becomes DANCE.
ii not strongly made. 1t also Gives any weigh,
OF small diameter that is reauired without
making it thick high.
They be by either gin, horse water or steam
power, and require millwnght to set them up
ADVANTAGES:
the gst without having supply pressure the
ner stone from the driving power as most unduIatory
mills have TO do; this is Of atimporance when horse
power is used.
I'd. When the stone is running Its own momentum
acts like the Hy wheel Of engine, aording regu-
lanty and speed to its motion. mill does NOT run
true and regular You make good meal or -four
3d. The stone is composed of or 5 French burr
blocks because single blocks of sufficient size cannot
be had without having soft or imperfect places in
them
4th The stone having this great weight is enabled TO
grind near the centre larger quantity with less pow
er than any other mill now in use
5th- This mill Is square frame. made of wood, in
the form of husk: the "a inch occupying space of
only or feet square.
9th This mill is simply and strongly constructed
and less liable get Of order than anv other mill
and does not require milwright to set them ED.
7th The gearing and pues of these mills are all
OF iron and preferable because there never is
cessiy of crossing the band of pullies 10 keen
IN place; the band does get and worn as in
the case OF single geared mills; there danger In
putting the band off the pulley as 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 II to Is bushels per hour; the So
men 2o or more bushels per hour with proper speed.
More than $500 of these mills have been used prin- |
cpay in the south and west and never have any been
returned from failing to please. The above mill is
warranted to give entire satisactionor may be return
ID at expense.
We have no premium certificates from scientific So
'ieties TO refer to- never having asked for Them but
We do refer, with pride, 10 about twenty-five |
hundred persons who have purchased and used our
nils There being equal or superior to our MILL
Fe cannot build reputation for By clustering chaI
enges. or by comparison, as other mill manufacturers
10 with ours.
l
windy challenges for public trials with mills of admit
ed superiority* flor there is danger Of their trying
heir mill with an inferior one others do with ours
T buncomb advertisements, then ours will never sell
Dr. We shall never descend 10 either method
When man wants TO sell you mill and tells yen
lat IA inch Is inch, 20 inch mill will grind Ii
20 bushels per hour, look at the hole through the
zones and see if halt that quantity of corn would pass
trough without grinding at all.
