F,Dv MILLS Week before last we
! ,oila6 attention to these mills. and
have already had several inquiries for
them, and this notice VIII answer sew,
s-oI letters. The mill is complete and
ready to hitch your horses to 1t, at
E6 50. f. o. b., York, Pa. No other
machinery or separate horse power is
necessary. It is a cast mill, to be
hoIted to a platform, or a frame of sills,
which may be staked to the ground, or
halter. buried in the ground.
1t is provided with lever, to which
singletrees are attached, and the horses
walk around the mill, and it Is claimed
BY the manufacturers that it will grind
rom three bushels fne to IL bushels
coarse per hour. We will send cuts
and description on application. See
testimonial appended below.
RALEIGH, N. c., Sept. 30, 1906
Mr.. I. IUey, s. B. A.
DEAR SIR: I wish to say that the corn
and cob mill bought for me by you has
been in use on my farm for several
weeks, and it has given entire satisfac-
ton. 1t is very simple in construction
and operation, strong and of easy draft.
We grind four to five bushels corn and
+ cob per hour with n good size mule.
1t will grind much faster with two
mules kept moving a good gait. I like
1t. The feed is better, in my opinion,
than pure whole corn, and is a great
saving. Respectfully,
] NJ. BROUGHTON.
We clip the following from the South
Carolina Cotton Plant, which is the or
gan OF the Alliance in that State, as
HE PROGRESSIVE FARMER is in North
Carolina: I'VE happened at q depot in
tas State and saw an Ocala wagon
from Cary, N. O., ordered through the
otate Exchange, put off the freight
Ualn. There were present three Ali
anCemen, each of whom had soma time
previous bought wag Dns. Prices were
compared and it was found that these
oFetnren had paid from 81 to IS more
tf their wagons than this one had
cost. These brethren had lost enough
WPay Tor the Cotton plant from four
eight years. besides sinking Just
hol that should have gone TO the
credit OF the State Exchange. Is such
business or common sense, brother2
we have failed to make ourselves
uuaer8toOd IN regard to fertilizers. Let
~ Try 1t again. We have engaged to
lave the North Carolina Alliance Off
