No Farmer valuing Clean (Seed can aft to (To without a EACINE EAN MILL. Practical Farmers have pronounced ,it thfe Best— read TESTIMONIALS below. While it has capacity to Clean from 60 to 90 bnehels per hour. No. 1 FARM MILL Is 2ft Bin over all, and ia furnished with .

FERBIMAN: FFEBBIMAB would cnll your attention » to tbia Improved Farm Fanning Mill whicV combines all the advantages of the various Milla now m nee, and also the follow- ing important and greatly needed Improve- ments : — FiasT.— ln the width of the Mill, it being ■wider thah most Farm Mills of similar size, thereby increasing the cleaning capacity to a large extent. BKOOND,— The improved plan of hanßlng th shoe upon strong strap-hinged hangore. thn preventing constant breakage. Third.— ld the matter? t fastening the drum ha head to the posts by means of a caetiron lorf circle, and secured to the poets by screwa (instead of wooden cleats morticed into posts and held by wooden keys), adding increased strength and durability to the Mill. Fotjbth.— The great advantage of raising or lowering the Blide m the Hopper means of a Bcrew. The ironß aie of the mcßt approved the wheel, pinion, and shake irons being strong. The gearing is all placed on the in*, side of the mill, ont of the way. The bearing is formed by the hub of the large wheel run- ningina 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 respecta, to any now innße. The fan with wind boards are bo ar- ranged that the wind strikes the hurdle m such a manner as to blow all fcul stnff, and light grain over the hurdle. The aide spout delivers the No 1 train at the side, and the No t grain at the front of the Mill. The grader can be bo adjusted as to separate and deliver through the side spout a greater or less portion of the beßt groin; The wheat Bcreenß and grader are so arranged as to effectually take out ccckle from No 1 and No 2 wheati No Farmer or Dealer should be without one &a they are inraluable to all who wish te market their seed m good condition, and thus save the heavy deductions usually made foi impurities and foul staff, and also the extra freight charges and cost of cleaning. The} also save time, and by the thorongh and com- plete work which can bo accomplished witt them, coon repay the cost incurred m theii purchase. To Fanners raisin gjlargo quantities of Grain or Eeefa, we would recommend the No 2 Ware house Mill, as specially adapted for their use as the great saving of time will compensate foi the difference m the first cost. They can b< run hy hand as easily as a Farm S ; ze, altho 'gt constracted much heavier, and made mor< durable. Be guided by experience of others and orde a "Bacino Mill."

I have tried it with wheat, oats, and tnrni eeed. I can confidently say that it is all thi • it claims to be. In fact, it ib a long way tl beat machine of the kind I have ever see With a larger assortment of riddles, I belie^ it will dress m a Buperior manner any kind needs.— William Littlbjohk, Waiwera WOULD hOT LIKE TO WANT ONE NOW— NO ONE SHOULD.
