INSTALL. NEW SIFTER i

1. "A new sitter has Leen installed at
the -four mill Of the Northwestern
Milling company here, and the mill
resumed operations the latter part Of
the week, after being shut down for
a few days to make me change.
. The new machine, which is known
as the self-balancing square sitter, is
SO arranged that it handles the same
amount Of grain as five of the old
.sifters did. The purpose of the sitter
is to grade the middlings, or crushed
grain, after it has passed through the
breaker. From the sitter the various
sizes drop into chutes and pass
through purifiers, which remove all
the dirt. These purifiers consist Of
suction fans, the power Of which is
regulated according to the size Of the
grain which they must cleanse.
The new machine is very expensive
but is a valuable addition to the mill,
