LOCAL INFRI.LIGENCp,
The Pioneer Mills.


The manufacture of flour IN this city is
one of the leading industries, three mills
being engaged in the business, that employ
& large number Of men, and produce annu-
ally over $1,5OO,000 worth of -four. The
Pioneer Touring mills, one Of the largest
and most popular institutions of the kind
in the State. was established here in 1854
For more than thirty years these mills
have maintained an enviable reputation for
their -four, always keeping pace with the
improvements of the times. During the
past winter the mills we're rebuilt. and fur
nished with the full patent roller process.
No expense having been spared 10 insure
perfection in all details, largely increasing
their capacity, they thus made one of the
largest and most complete -four mills in the
country. The use of the roller process of
making fOur, Us distinguished from the old
process, IN which the wheat was ground
between stones. is becoming almost uni
gersal. By the stone process, if any of the
impurities IN the wheat were ground as
fine as the -four there We're no means
Of separating them afterwards, as they
would pass through the same sieve
that the -four would. BY the roller process
the wheat is passed through 4 series of
rollers which, crushing the wheat releases
the -four in the shape of round globules.
while the impurities are 3attened, the
lighter particles being removed by a current
OF air, while the coarsev particles are
caught by the sleeves, which adlnit OF the
free passage OF the -four The -four thus
produced is much finer and winter than
that which IS ground by the stone process.

being used III It's manufacture. BY this
improved new roller process they extract
from the wheat all its nutritious qualities
instead Of letting them 90 into the inferior

her fasteners, and then offers q box of her
