We present our customers and those whose names have been given us with our descriptive pamphlet for 1872.

Having now been established over thirty-five years in the construction of machinery in this particular line, and knowing most of the old and new improvements which have been a success and those which have failed, we are offering, after almost a constant course of labor, mill machinery of undoubted superior qualities. And now we invite the attention of those interested to the articles of our designing and make, fully believing a careful investigation and comparison with the work of any manufacturer will convince them of its excellence. Our work being represented in OVER ONE THOUSAND FLOURING MILLS is some evidence of its practical merits. NO EXPERIMENTS, BUT GET THE BEST. We have files of letters and statements that tell of the costly experiences of those having bought new and untried machinery.

The mill of to-day of whatever dimensions must be simple, compact, efficient, durable and cheap.

have claimed our special study to obtain the best results in the different locations, and purposes required.

1st. The best wheat scouring and separating machinery.

2d. The quality of burr stones required, best speed, draft and form of furrows, and best mode of driving them.

3d. Numbers of cloth, amount of bolting surface required, best arrangement of numbers, &c.

4th. Propriety of regrinding, how best to grade the offal for this purpose, as well as other requirements of flour mills.

with two to four run of stones varying from two to four feet diameter, and all in one substantial frame, spindles being long and arranged for the gearing and lower part of husk to be in the basement of the mill-house on an independent foundation, are made complete in our works, carefully put up and adjusted, marked, taken apart, small pieces boxed and otherwise prepared for shipment and ease of putting up. This plan was first adopted by us in the year 1867; since that time we have put out considerably over one hundred run of stone on this plan, all receiving the highest commendations of the owners.

are in extensive use, but by careful observation we have found the means of improvement, and within the last few years have revised our patterns, and we say, with entire confidence, all things being considered, that we make the best heavy husk portable mill in the market, they having none of the objectionable features so common in mills of this class.

is directed to OUR COMPLETE GRINDING AND BOLTING FLOUR MILL adapted to the special demands of a custom mill. Those now made have all the improvements of value to the present date, and furnished at a price so reasonable that every town or neighborhood of sufficient demands can be supplied; good flour and yield guaranteed.

SELF TRAMMING, DRIVING AND BALANCE IRONS

as improved, are extensively used, and in brisk demand. These are no new and doubtful experiment. See the cuts and description, and the defects of other modes of driving irons will readily be understood. We are prepared to execute
