FOR SALE. 



One scconil-haiul fcln. mill that will roll sheets l-t 

 inches wide. The mill is at ijresent in New Ham- 

 luirg-, Ont., Can. Theoriginal price on it was $40.00, 

 but we will now sell it at half price, or $30. OJ. 



Also one exactly like it, owned by W. W. liliss, of 

 Duartc, liOS Ang-cles Co., Cal. There is nothing- 

 wrong- with these mills, except that the rolls are of 

 smaller diameter than those we now make, in eon- 

 sCQuence of which they do not make quite so thin 

 Idn. right in the middle of the rolls as those made 

 now with rolls of a larger diameter. They will, how- 

 ever, roll narrow sheets eijual to any, and will roll 

 sheets a foot wide; but when of so great a width, 

 the center is a triHe thicker, as explained above.
