20-Inch " New Era " Mill. 



Recommended for Mexican and Foreign Trade. 



This cut represents the 20-inch "New Era" Mill manufactured by Nordyke & Mar- 

 mon Company, for wheat, corn, and middlings in which is used a quality of French 

 buhr-stone, imported for this express purpose. The mill has an improved Silent-Feed 

 attachment. The whole is placed in an iron hurst frame, and every part so accurately 

 fitted that it can be placed in any part of the mill ; and should the material be ex- 

 hausted in the hopper, the mill will continue to run without detriment. The whole 

 material, excepting the Stones, being of iron and steel, it must run steady and be dur- 

 able. The Bearings are readily supplied with oil from proper receivers, and it must 

 run light. The Stones being of equal thickness, and with the Running Balance, it can 

 give no trouble in that way. In flourings, middlings, or wheat, the Furrows should be 

 kept straight, and the special instructions sent with each mill should be followed, they 

 being carefully prepared for each particular material to be treated. The Buhrs, when 

 faced and operated as directed, are so true that they will run to within a thousandth 

 part of an inch, and not touch. The Buhr-Stones used in these middling mills are of a 

 quality not liable to glaze, and when handled judiciously will give as fine results in 

 flouring as many of the roller mills now in use. The size of the stones is twenty inches 

 in diameter, dressed ready to grind. Under-stone runs. Has improved self-oiling, 

 self-adjusting, metallic bush. Rubber springs prevent nails, etc., from injuring faces 

 of stones.
