of the corn lies. When the horse wants a mouthful he lowers 
his head a few inches, and the food slides down ; he then 
naturally raises his head, eats his mouthful clear of the re- 
mainder of the feed, breathing freely, and repeats the process

as he desires. Thus the corn can be completely consumed 
without tossing, and without any attention on the part of his 
driver. 
The nose-bag was put on to a horse in the Yard, which had 
never had one on before, and which fed out of it with apparently 
the greatest comfort. 
This invention is well worthy of the attention of horse- 
owners, and probably, as in many other good and simple con- 
trivances, the main objection they will find in its use will be 
the prejudice of their men against even trying anything new. 
Mechwart Buchholz' Complete Corn-grinding Roller-mill 
(No. 3711), made by Ganz and Co., price 15^1., and exhibited 
by Buchholz and Co., Royal Flour Mills, Vauxhall, is a machine, 
as the exhibitors claim, " destined to replace mill-stones for 
economy of power and the production of a higher quality of flour." 
This " Low-grinding Roller-mill," as it is also called, has three 
iron rollers ; the grain is first crushed by the top pair, it then falls 
on to the lower end of an inclined sieve, which, owing to a 
peculiar kicking motion, tends to work the meal gradually up 
the incline ; and thus the sieve is made so effective that half the 
usual area only is required. The meal then falls on to a lower 
sieve, and all that requires further grinding passes between the 
second and third rollers. By this machine, the importers say 
that " it is possible to reduce wheat to flour and bran in the 
most direct and simple manner through rollers, whcrebif the 
whole produce of the jiour is raised in quality and valued' Be
