New Drive Enables
Hammer Mill To
Do More Work

Farmers can save time and fuel
by using a new power take-off
hammer mill, says William Calvert
extension agricultural engineer at
the University of Delaware. Power
loss due to belt slippage is reduced
to a minimum, he says.
Power is transmitted from the
tractor by a conventional shaft
which is coupled to a multiple v
belt drive attached directly to the
hammer mill. This supplies enough
extension agricultural engineer at
power to produce the speed of 15.-
900 revolutions per minute which
Is necessary to pulverize feed. Be-
cause belt slippage and power loss
are cut to a minimum, the speed of
the machine is constant. Grinder
capacity is increased as much as
5O per cent with the same power as
before, Calvert points out

Treasury $4,000, 100000 to S6O00-
100000 a year from the abnormal
business earnings resulting from
