WANT TO GRIND. 



Who has not want- 

 ed a mill of some 

 kind, to grind up 

 things? The coffee- 

 mill is all right as 

 far as it goes; but 

 it is slow; and if 

 you don't look out 

 it will break. The 

 mill shown in the 

 accompanying pic- 

 ture will not only- 

 grind all sorts of 

 grain for the chick- 

 ens, but it will also break it up coarsely for table 

 use. Cracked wheat and cracked corn are not to be 

 despised for a change in the bill of fare, I tell you, 

 especially when you have nice honey or maple mo- 

 lasses to fix with it. Well, this mill will do more 

 too. It will grind oyster-shells so as to give the 

 hens material for egg-shells. It will also grind bones; 

 yes, broken crockery, broken flower-pots, or any 

 thing else. Well, by the latter operation you kill 

 two birds with one stone — you get it out of the 

 door-yard, and furnish the biddies just exactly what 

 they need for grinding up the grain in their crops. 

 If you do not believe it is better than gravel, just 

 give the fowls a chance to tell you which they like 

 best. The usual price of this mill is $5.00; but you 

 may have the mill and Gleanings too a whole 

 year, for $5.50. If you have already paid for Glean- 

 ings for a year, you may have the mill for $4.50. 

 The sieve attachment for taking out the tine dust, 

 when crushing shells, or to take out fine meal, when 

 cracking corn, will be furnished for 60 cents extra.

Black and Hybrid Queens For Sale, 



For the benefit of friends who have black or hybrid queens 

 which they want to dispose of, we will insert notices free of 

 charge, as below. We do this because there is hardly value 

 enough to these queens to pay for buying them up and keep- 

 ing them in stock; and yet it is oftentimes quite an accommo- 

 dation to those who can not afford higher-priced ones. 



I have 12 black queens for sale, at 25 cts each.
