and cran, by a process of gradual reduction. The wheat is 
poured into the top of the machine, to be broken upon three 
pairs of 12 by 6 inch rolls, which are grooved and chilled to great 
hardness. It passes through the first break, and thence to a 
patent sieve. The tails then pass to the second break, and 
again to a sieve. Both these sieves are kept from clogging by 
a brush travelling beneath each. The flour and middlings 
detached by the first and second breaks go together to a dust- 
ing centrifugal covered with silk. Through this the flour passes, 
and the semolina and middlings tail over the end free from 
dust and ready for purification. The tails of the second sieve 
pass to the third break, from which they go to the cran centri- 
fugal. This produces flour, and tails the cran to a sifter, which 
divides it into sizes suited to the trade. The flour from the 
dusting centrifugal and that from the cran centrifugal run 
together into a sack, fit for sale. The machine breaks down an 
average mixture of wheat at the rate of one sack of flour per 
hour. It is driven by two horse-power only, and a single belt. 
It takes up very little room, occupying a space of 7 feet by 4 
feet, and stands only 74 feet high over everything. The 
hoppers of the centrifugals, which form its base, project below 
the floor. It is of substantial construction, free from complica- 
tions likely to endanger continuity of work, is perfectly rigid, 
and runs with smoothness, while it requires no technical know- 
ledge on the part of the attendant. 
Article 5316. Mr. Jas. Coidtas , Grantham. Plough, with 
Reversible Share, &c. Price 4 1 . — This plough (fig. 11) is manu- 
factured by Messrs. Thos. Watson & Son, Spilsby. Its novel 
features comprise a reversible share, reversible point and re- 
versible slipe, which are made in separate parts to economise 
cost of fittings. Twice the wear is thus obtained from this 
plough compared with that obtained from others. All the 
wearing parts are chilled. The breasts are made of special hard 
steel, and consequently are less subject to wearing, while the 
draught is lighter. More work is obtained and horseflesh saved. 
The machine is cheap and small, and fulfils all the advantages 
which its makers claim. The price of each share is 7s. 6d. 
Article 5333. Messrs. Eansomes, Sims & Jefferies, Ltd., 
Ipswich. Three-furrow Plough. Price 81 . — This useful plough 
(fig. 12), appropriately named the “ Gang Forward,” has been 
designed and constructed from the suggestions of Mr. Richard 
Stratton, of The Duffryn, Newport, Mon. Its salient feature is 
a seat for the driver contrived so that he may easily take his 
place and dismount, while the wheel, which runs directly beneath 
the seat, takes the weight of the man, thereby obviating any
