YF7HIS Mill differs from all others IN the constructor
4 Of the INNER or runner stone, which is composed
If French Burr Blocks, enclosed IN cas-iroh chse'
hapd forms the back and honp Of the stone' WIN cast
iron eve or BUSH that is OF greater eAteftiai
at the bottom than the top, IS secured 10 'ie pteN
by four bolts that every block Is IN TIC form VI
doyetau which gives greater strength to astohe IMAM
INV other method that is required in small mills where
the stone is run with great speed and becomes DANCE
rous if not strongly made. 1t also gives any "elg
10 stone of small diameter that is required without
making il thick or high ......
They can bern by either gin, horse, water OF steam
mower and require no mil!wright to set them up.
- 49, ADVANTAGES:
Ist Sufficient weight in the runner stone TO crush
the gris without having supply pressure TO the run
ner stone from the driving power most unduiatory
mills have to do this is of great importance when morse
power is used s.. ....
Cd When the stone is running its own momentum
acts like the fly wheel of engine, afording regu-
arity and speed its motion. If mill does not run
true and regular you cannot make good meal or 1out
Sd The is composed OF a or French burr
blocks because single blocks OF sufficient size cannot
he 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 a husl the "a inch occupying space OF
only 4 or feet square.
9Th This mill is simply and strongly constructed
and less liable get of order than any other Hll
and does not require millwright to set them up.
7th The gearing and pullies of these mills are all
of iron and are preferable because there neverls ne
cessy Of crossing the band of pulIies 10 keep
it in place; the band does not get cut and worn as IN
the case of single geared mills; nor is there danger in
putting the band on off the pulley in single gear
mills. -...s.-s -. s. -
BY the steady application of steam power the "a
inch mill will grind to 10 bushels per hour, of good
meal and will grind wheat well The ~
inch mill will grind - to Is bushels per hour; the 36
inch 90 more bushels per hour with proper speed
More than $500 of these mills have been used prin-
cipay in the south and west and have any been
returned from falling to please The above mill is
warranted to give entire satisfaction or may be return
ed al our expense
We have premium certificates from scientific So
ciees refer to, having asked for them, but
we do REFER with some pride, to about twenty-five
hundred persons who have purchased and used our
mills. There being equal or superior to Our mill
we cannot build reputation for it by clustering chal-
Ienges, by comparison, other mill manufacturers
do with ours.
If mill will not sell without premium certificates or
windy challenges for public trials with mills Of admit
ted superority* or there danger OF their tsylng
their mill with inferior one,l others do Win oars,
or buncomb advertisements, then will never sell,
for we shall never descend to either method.
When man sell you mill and tells you
that II inch, Is inch, or 20 inch mill viii grind Il
to 20,busnels per hour look the hole throagh The
stones and if bali that quantity Of woQie pass
through without grinding at all.
