The Hess Mill.

A stock company, with a capital of
$25, 200, has lately been formed at Vim
cennes, Ind, for the manufacture and
sale of the Hess mill in the States Of
Indiana and Illinois. The Hess mill
fills long-felt want as machine
among the farmers to grind the grain

This mill has capacity of ten bushels
of very fine meal, for family use, per
hour, and will grind twenty-five bush
els per hour sufficiently fine for food
for stock. 1t also will grind 1000 BUSH
els without sharpening, and any person
capable Of using file and cold-chisel
can sharpen the buhrs in two hours
time. This mill is now on exhibition
near the narrow-gauge depot, where it
will grind free of charge for the meet tho
ageekS, corn, rye, oats, wheat or barley.
We want every farmer in the county to
bring in a grist and witness the Hess
mill grind it.

THE HESS MILL.

NOW on Exhibition ON 8. Js and P.
Railway Grounds, opposite the OId
WOODEN Factory, Washington q.
Hs-EveFy Farmer HIS own Miller.
BY securing one of the Hess Mills he
can grind his own corn-meal, Graham
flour and food for his stock. The meal
made by the Hess Mill Is much better
than that made by any other mill in ex-
istence, and grinds from ten to twelve
bushels per hour to any degree of fine
ness desired, and does not heat the meal
in grinding, but granulates it all evenly
without powdering or mashing it, as is
the case with all stone buhrs. This mill
will grind twenty-five bushels Of corn,
rye, oats, barley or athergrain, per hour,
sufficiently fine for stock, and is easily
operated by hand, horse or steam power,
Every intelligent farmer knows that at
least 40 per cent. is saved by feeding
ground food to stock. There are more
than one hundred thousand farmers who
want this mill in the State OfOhlo, as it
is more needed and ofm0re practical
utility than any farm implement now in
use. The price is low and within reach
of all. Besides being so simple in con-
itruction that any one can accomplish as
much and as good work as hemost expe-
rienced miller, the mill is also durable
will last a lifetime. Two thousand BUSH
els Of corn can be ground on this mill
without sharpening, The Hess mill, as
soon as known, will become anecessary
attachment to all merchant and custom
mills, as 1t costs one-fourth less than
stone buhr, and produces 25 per cent.
more mlddlings. We invite the closest
investigation of practical millers and
farmers. For further information address
