How Much it will Do.

The speed of this mill is about three hundred strokes of the per minute, and the feed from 1 to & ofan inch for every stroke, depending upon the character of the timber. Thus, at medium speed the would cut through log twelve feet long in from one to two minutes.
 From this data any practical man will see that it is capable of cutting about 3500 feet of inch boards in l2 hours.
 It will saw more rapidly than any Mill we have ever seen. while Its advantage over the circular Mill are that it is cheaper requires less power to run it, is much less liable to get out of order is much less expensive to repair when damaged makes less i'm perfect work, wastes less in cutting is dangerous to the parties attending it like the circular mill and is capable of cutting much larger timber.
 The segments and friction which furnish for the carriage are sufficient to logs twenty four feet long. An extra length will be sent when desired and extra charge made. The pump sent is worked by the engine. and is sufficient to raise water about twenty feet. Where it is desirable to raise water to supply the boiler from greater depth a force pump will be furnished and an extra :harge made for it. Drawings and full explanations are sent with each mil also, complete model, showing all the parts put together a small scale, with each part mum bered the the corresponding part on the ma. chinery of the mill. Thus assurance is made douby sure that no can fail to put up the mill and run it without trouble.
 The Combination Mill is confidently offered to the public as the most simple, efficient and practical ma chine for manufacturing lumber, ever produced
 Parties desiring to of these Mills in opera ton before purchasing can do so by calling at St. Lous also, parties desiring to have their mill for warded to them from New Orleans La., can be ac- commodated-as we endeavor to keep them constant ly on hand, there. as ,oeW ds here.
 When convenient for purchasers to send in their orders week or in advance o the time they want the mill shipped we would respectfully ask them to do SO.
 No mill is considered ordered untilat least $1O0 is paid on it.
 All orders should be addressed to

TN presenting to the public the claims of this ma IL chnery, will state that it's production is the result of the combined efforts of several of the most practical machnsts and experienced saw mill men in the country.
 During the last few years we have examined many new inventions and appliances in this connection and have consulted with several thousand mechanics, fully experienced in the of machinery for the manufacture of lumber. During the last year we have sold and shipped to various parts of this conti nent nearly hundred steam mills the results of which have afforded large amount of practical information, to the difficulties be overcome the defects which have to be guarded against, and the objects to be obtained in machinery of this character The mill now offer does not claim its superiority from any single improvement or patent which it may embrace but q combination of all the most valua- ble Improvements which could be included within single machine, added to which are several new ap- pliances lately patented and others for which pat ents have been applied for. It has been thoroughly and practically tested, and has neen examined by large number of well known scientific and exper- enced mechanics whose certificates shall soon publish all of whom pronounce it more simple in its construction, more durable and more efficient ill it's operation than any mill ever before produced
