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.

THE FOLLOWING POINTS

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.

COMBINED HUSKS

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.

OUR PORTABLE MILLS

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.

PARTICULAR ATTENTION

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

DRAWINGS AND PLANS

with description, bills of material required in the construction of mill-house all ready to receive the machinery, showing also the location of mills and machinery in the building. This is of special advantage, as it can be turned over to the carpenter or contractor for execution, thus saving trouble in knowing the cost before you begin, as well as knowing where to strike.

OUR ADVANTAGES.

Our whole attention is devoted to this particular line of manufacturing, with special tools, machinery and permanent buildings built and adapted expressly for the purpose, at a great expense. We are thus enabled to conduct with system and accuracy the production of good work. We have advantages in location, as a glance at a map of the States will show; we are central, in ready access to lumber, coal and iron, (other makers both east and west of us are supplied in a great measure, some altogether, with hard lumber from our State.) We have good Railroad shipping facilities in all directions, and purchasers can have their work safely delivered almost at their own doors at low shipping rates.

With these advantages we are able to compete with any factory, east or west, saving time, money and risk to the purchaser.
