FFEBBIMA^ would call your attention « to this Improved Farm Fanning Mill whicto combines &U the advantages of the various Milln now m nee, and aleo the follow- ing important and greatly needed Improve- ments : — First.— ln the width of the Mill, it being wider than most Farm Mills of similar aize, thereby increasing the cleaning capacity to a large extent. Bkcond — The improved plan of hanging th choc upoc strong strap- hinged hangers, thu preventing conßt&nt breakage. Third.— ld tho mafcfcerr ! fastening the dram ha head to the potts bj means of a caotiron lorf circle, &nd secured to tho posts by screws (instead of wooden cleats morticed into posts and held by wooden keys), adding increased "Strength and durability to the Mill. Fourth— The grent advantage of raising or lowering the Blide m the Hopper means of a screw. The iron b aie of the moßfc approved the wheel, pinion, and shake irons being strong. The gearing is all placed on the m« aide of the mill, out of the way. The bearing is formed by the hub of the large wheel run- ning m a thimble or box, three inches long, of Chilled Iron and extending through the posts, giving it a steady and easy motion. For cleaning and separating all kinds of grain, we guarantee thie Mill to bo equal to, and m fact superior, m all respect*, to any now m use. The fan with ■» md boards are so ar- ranged that the wind tarikes the hurdle m Bach a manner aa to blow all fcul Btuff and light grain over the hurdle . The side spout delivers the No 1 c rain at the side, and the No 2 grain at the front of the Mill. The grader can toe bo adjusted as to separate and deliver tbrough tho side spout a greater or less portion of the best grain. The wheat screens and grader are so arranged as to effectually take out o^ckle from No 1 and No 2 wheat. No Farmer or Deale* should be without one bb they are inralnable to all who wish to market their seed m good conoition, and .thus save the heavy deductions usually made for impurities and fonl stuff, and also the extra freight charges and cost of cleaning. They also save time, and by the thorough and com- plete work which can be accomplished with them, poon repay the cost incurred m their purchase. To Farmers raising large quantities of Grain, or Bee b, we would recommend tho No 2 Ware- house Mill, as specially adapted for their use, as the great saving of time will compensate for the difference m the first cost. They can be run by hand aa easily aa a Farm Size, althoagb constructed much heavier, and made more durable. Be guided by experience of others and order a "Bacine Mill." You don't want a better record than it hag. Bead. MADE A SPLENDID JOB. I put some bags of wheat through last spring, they made a splendid job. A neighbor borrowed mine to run tbrough some oaty wheat : he was highly pleased with tho job they made. — William Blak e, Hillfort Waiwera. NEVER SAW ITS EQ<jAL. I have only used the " Bacine " Mill, as yet, for dressing oate, wheat, and grass seed. It has given me, great satisfaction, I have never seen its equal for grading wheat for seed, and 1 have seen and helped to work a good many. —William Brook, Church Hill. Waiwera, COMPLIMENTARY.
