We shall not attempt to give descrlp
ton Of the Millin mechanical OF scientifi.
ic language for we are neither a mechan-
lie nor scientist. We shall try, however,
to give, in brief, ian Ineligible descrip.
tion of it., The size of the building on.
the ground is 20 by 80 feet, and Of the
engine room, is by go. The building
from bottom to topgis four stories hish,
each story being abundantly high
for the purpose attended. There
are three run of stones-two for
wheat and one for com and
bucLwheatvand one corn shelter. Each
of the wheat runwill grind from 12 tos14
bushels per hour; and the other run from
40 to so bushels OF corn Tneresisan eleva-
tor to raise the grain, binset to contain 1t,
and a cooling apparatus to cool, it in case
of heating There is a something can not
give the name---for cleaning The grain
separating and blowing out sticks, weeds
stones, chess, oats, cookie, chat and other
/ impurities. There is an A. J. YANDE-
GRIFT's CENTRIFueAL FEEDING SUCTION
GEAIN SEPARATOR AND AUTOMATIC Ora
DER. This machine separates the grain
according to It's size and weight--the
large from the small and the heavy from
the light-tbus separating the graiIs
according to their qualities. There is a
| Water Force Pump, located in Che en-.
gina room, which, with its connections
constitutes a Steam Fire Engine. A pipe
leads from this Force Pump through
each story and is so constructed that ia
case of fire bose can be connected in. each
STORY with the pipe. Another pipe leads
from the Force Pump out of the NIL
| and is carried under ground to within {
short distance Of the Halliday HOUSE
, where it comes above the ground will
the end constructed for the attachment
of hose. This is under cover of a small
building adapted to lis purpose. Th'
Force Pump is supplied with hose suf
icient to enable it to put oui fires Of th,
Mill and Of Gideon Tauesdcll's Lumbe
Yard and Office, and perheps som,
8 adjoining buildings. And if the clt.
: authorities will provide hose and max
/ Arrangements taconnect with the hos
and force pumpof the MIL they vii
have Steam Fire Engine which Cal
r throw water to no jnconsiderable part O
the city. And we trust they will not b
: slow in providing the hose and i
: making the arrgnGenaents.
The Mill is most substantially cor
g structed in all its parts, and is provides
:, with all the modern improvements.
It cost, exclusive of the lots on which j
It stands and is, connected with it, $40, 00f
