The pEERINe HoRsE.PoWER.

This new design in machinery for con-
verting horsepower was fairly exhibited
at the fair. 1t is intended to supersede
the old style of horse power in use in grist
mills n g~inhouses. 1t Is very simple.
1t consists of an upright iron column
somewhat over six feet, which Is intended
as the central support of the ginhouse
tlmbers, scylinder works about the lower
portion of this, from which spring two
levers for transferring the horsepower.
This cylinder also bears a pi~nion-wheel,
which transfers the force to a fy.wheel,
bearing betting, connecting either with
a line OF shafting for driving various
machinery, or directly with the gin, or
the grist-mill. The great advantages of
this power is-there Is no waste by fric-
ton. We have seen one mule drive it so
as to run a Outlet gin in first-rste order.
The animal by travelling a mile and q
half per hour gives the required velocity
for ginning or grinding purposes. The
principal part Of the machinery is made
to serve as the main support Of the gin
house, which can be constructed / COM
binstion with this power, for about two
thirds the usual cost Of g~inhouses. The
Messrs Orgil Bros, & Co., are the Mem
phis agents.
