SPLENDID NEW MILL.

to hOuid0r's Manufactures.
1--WE are running now at the rate OF
100 barrels day. You see there is no
dust, there; is no vibration, you have
here a model mill" The speaker was
Mr. w. S. Muster of Indianapolis. mill
wright OF the great -four mill manuiac.
turers. the Nordyke & Norman company
Of that city. Mr. Muster and the report,
er then stood on the fourth floor OF the
new Farmers Mill and Elevator COM
pany's plant at the mouth of Boulder
canyon, There was no dust. no noise,
and yet the wheels indicated that flour-
ing mill was busily grinding its grist and
the presence of men IN miller's clothes
Indicated that new industry had been
born in Boulder.
The new mill is stone edihce, built
on walls which have withstood the storms
of several decades, refashoned and so
added to as to make a compact, com
plete and practically working mill.
Years ago the Yonts' made "A ur there,
but that old mill is but the inwards of
fine plant which has surrounded it on all
sides. All that the enterprise of twenty
years ago contributes is the superb water
power, which constitutes large asset Of
the Farmers Mill and Elevator con-
pany of today. All else is changed.
Mr. Muster has installed shaftings
which work automatically. improved
self.teeding rolls, seven double stands
on wheat and one three high for corn
meal. There are two flour packers and
one bran packer. both of which are auto
matte. There are four seive jumpers
with dust collectors and securing ma
chimes, bran and ships busters. double
Invincible scouers, three 5x6 swing sif .
ers. differential reel for low grade stock,
a receiving separator. two Cyclone dust
collectors. and gravel machine.
The tubular dust collector, cleaned by
an automatic bumper is new in this Sec
ton OF the country and is SO cleaned as
TO raise not particle of dust. Connect.
ing all these are 90 stands OF elevators
from bottom floor to fourth Aoo, OF the
mill, from the ox24 rolls on the first to
the feeders and dust collectors on the
fourth floor.
The reader will better understand the
working Of this mill when it is
stated that from ,h. time the
grain is shoveled into the chute in the
b basement until it is sewn in sacks as per.
fectcd -four, not grain is touched by
human hand.
Autom a,ic machinery. selt.oillnR. self

of water power free as air conveyed to
the layman a conception OF the economy
of operation of this mill. Mr. Jensen. the

Here is Boulder creek sending an end
less stream to the sea, harnessed tor the
purposes Of manufacture to a wheel,
self-eoverned, self.regulased. and fur.
nishing power far in excess of any
steam power furnished in Boulder.
Absent the dust Of coal. the dust Of
grain that is ground, with an even mo
tion of water pouring tree Of cost upon
turbin wheels, it is no wonder that Mr.
Mckenzie can say: "There is room in
for mills and mills. 1t costs
little to make flour and We want to bring
the producers Of grain to our city. We
want, above all, that everyone shall say
that Boulder has perfect mills making
the best -four and that none but Boulder
made flour shall be eaten by Boulder
maids"
The elevator OF the Farmers mill is
huge steel tank, which holds $4,000
bushels ana never grain of wheat goes
into it save that it has been autom atically
cleaned and purified. and from this tank
moved by the screw eleva
tors the wheat which makes the -four
which will ultimately make the men and
women who will make the future Of Boul
der. the Athens of Colorado.
