FOR SALE. 



One second-hand fdn. mill that will roll sheets 1-1 

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

 burg, Ont., Can. The original price on it was $40.00, 

 but we will now sell it at half price, or $20.0;i. 



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

 Duarte. Los Angeles Co., Cal. There is nothing- 

 wrong v.'ith these mills, except that the rolls are of 

 smallei- diameter than those we now make, in con- 

 sequence of which they do not make (juite so thin 

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

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

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

 sheets a foot wide; but when of so ^rcat a width, 

 the center is a trifle thicker, as explained above.
