knives and cut into small pieces. The B. & W. mill is practi- 
cally the same mill. 
153. The McPherson Mill. 
The McPherson mill, invented in Eastern Ontario, consists 
of a wheel with knives in it similar to the blade of a plane. A 
hopper feeds the curd down against the wheel, and as it turns, 
slices of curd are shaved off. The wheel is apt to make the 
eurd fly. 
154. The Gosselin Mill. 
The Gosselin mill is similar to the McPherson, the blade 
being placed in a cylinder. The curd placed in a hopper rubs 
against the blades and drops into the cylinder, which being open 
at the ends, allows the curd to fall out. 
155. The Harris Mill. 
The Harris mill has a network of knives at the bottom of a 
hopper. A plunger works by a lever into this hopper, and when 
a lump of curd is dropped into this, the plunger forces it

through the knives, leaving the curd in pieces one-half inch 
square, and as long as the piece of curd dropped into the hopper. 
156. The Fuller Mill. 
The Fuller mill has two knives with a smaller number of 
blades than the Harris, placed one on either side of the hopper 
and the curd is pressed through the knives by a plunger that 
works back and forth across the bottom of the hopper. 
157. The Barnard Mill. 
The Barnard is similar to the Fuller mill.
