8, will include replicss Of many OF
the great masters. Giotto, the father
OF the Renaissance Of painting will be
represented by forty reproductions OF
his strongest and most realistic paint
ings. 1t is a curious fact that Giotto's
work, crude and unartistic as much Of
it seems to the present century, is
nevertheless the most original In COM

running order one of the best plants
in the state. The machinery is known
as the New Process Grinding Mill and
Is the most modern of its kind. 1t
has a capacity of 100 bushels per hour.
This company runs it continually at
from 40 to so bushels per hour, al.
though thisis hardly sufficient for the
large trade to be supplied. Feed of
all kinds is ground In this mill to a
fineness second to none in the United
States The speed is very high, rum
ming to 1000 revolutions per hour, at
tanning this gradually from 300 revo-
lutions. This process makes the feed
just like the old stone process, in fact
it is impossible to tell the difference.
The mill still has the old roller pro-
cess which is used considerably, as
many customers prefer this kind on
account of the feed being coarser.
Every process is found here for quick
handling, as there is a side track next
to the mill where it only takes an
hour to unload car of oats, while
Car of corn can be unloaded In As min
utes. All kinds Of feed Is to be found
at this mill at all times, such as hay,

manager, w. d. Mcdonald states that
with the new process the business has
increased twofold.
