HE following letter expresses the general opin-
ION OF those who areising the Combination Mil:
Messrs EMERSON & Co.-Gentlemen have
tried the saw-mili purchased of you, and will say
that 1T performs we'll, and more than meets my ex-
pectations. ann we'll pleased with its perloru-
ance. set it up small stream that afforded
which was much more than sufficient to supply the
boiler. We are able to cut 5000 feet of beautiful
lumber in l2 hours, with something less than ore
cord of wood. 1t is the very thing We have so
much needed in our county for a long time. With
little trouble and expense, we are able to move it
from five to ten miles per day, and set it up in the
heart OF the timber, which saves the great burden
of hauling the logs a long distance to the mill.
Yours, respectfully, JESSE KERR, Jr,
