Tho patents havo bcon recolved by
John Millor, of Milton, for Hour mill
machinery invented by him. Ono tiH ;i
stono dresser, which does away with any
manual labor, tho power being applied
from tho shaft which runs tho burrs. It t
dresses tho top and bottom stones in a
tierfect manner and would gladden tho
heart of any country miller who Knows
no way but tho old. I. is tho saly dresser
lu tho United StatoB which is wholly
worked by motive jMjwor, and is far more
perfect in its operations und results than
any other.
Another invontlou is 0, wheat dryor
which works on tho same principal as tno
f
Ol
machinery of a clock. Tho old way
drying wheat is irregular. Tho top
wheat would bo dry and tho bottom
damn. This is obviated by a round tub
iu which is sot an upright shaft to which
is attached a largo wheel. At tho bottom
of tho shaft and attached to this wheel
is a svstom of scrapers which, with tho
whoel, iuako,ono revolution around tho
tub iu three hours, scraping the damp
ened wheat into tho elevator. bovo is
tho wheat spout, and attached to tho edgo
of tho wheel is a spout which drops tlio
grain into the tub.
