We can say to onr patrons that the
grinding done by us will be in the
best manner that good machinery
and practical milling can do it. as we
have in our employ one of the best
practical millers in the State of Penn
svlvania. We can say without
tear Of contradiction that we are
turning out the best straight grade OF
" heat -four in the county. We
think it an advantage to the farmer
to get bis grinding done at our mill
for these reasons:
FIRST-We make as good wheat
-four as can be manufactured and
the farmers get the same -four In
exchange as the millionaire
would, were we blessed with
them in this neighborbood.
SECOND-Wec can do your chop
ping for you, SO that you are not
compel ed 20 sell your grain at
low prices and buy your chop.
THIRD-We can make the best
buckw heat -four ever msnufac-
tured in the county, as we have
just completed arranging the
new machinery for same, and il
works like charm.
FOURTH-We can make you rye
-four If you desire IL. Our rye
-four always brings the highest
price in Pittsburg. &C.
FIFTH-We make as good q corn
meal as there is in the market
SIXTH-Our GrsbAm -four cannot
be excelled. We manufacture
every article that is in our line
of business, and with the latest
improved machinery, and best
practical skill.
The farmer will readily see that IL
is more profitable to him to patronize
q mill where he can get all his differ
ent kinds of grain ground than TO sell
Lis grain and buy bis -four and feed.
We don't believe in misr-presenting
coods TO the public. therefore do not
put the same kind u -four 10 four or
FIVE different brands Of sacks. We
make straight grade Of -four. The
brand Is WHITE ROSE. the same
= given 10 the farmer ia exchanges.
We also make the ION "A PATtNT,
which il high grade OF -four and
stands with the best patents 10 the
market IL is manufactured out of
red winter wbest, blended With the
beet brand of MiuuesOts patent which
gives il & superior quality. Tne-e
