Ist. They will clean in the most perfect manner the foulest and smuttiest 

 Avheat, and render the same, once passed through the machine, clean grain. 



2d. They do the work much quicker, and in a better manner, than other 

 machines. 



3d. It takes much less power than any other machine of the kind. The 

 saving to millers in this respect is very important, as it enables them to run 

 (with the same power) five, where they have been able before to run but four 

 pair of stones, which is a saving of twenty-five per cent., by enabling them to 

 grind one-fourth part more in the same space of time, beside cleaning the wheat 

 for the whole jierfectly. 



4th. Their durability is of great advantage. The constantly recurring expen- 

 ses of repairs, so heavy in other machines, by using this machine, are saved, 

 as there is nothing to adjust, repair, or renew. 



oth. There is no waste whatever in cleaning wheat with these machines, and 

 the difference in the weight of any quantity of wheat before and after cleaning, 

 is precisely the amount of dirt, smut, and other foul matter blown out at the top 

 of the machine, without carrying with it a single kernel of wheat, or even those 

 parts of kernels that have been previously broken by the threshing machine.
