THE PEOPLE’S MILL. 
SANDFORD’S PATENT. 
A FARM MILL, Portable. Simple, Compact, ami made on 
•Tin entirely new principle, with plates having: a reciprocating 
■and oscillating, instead of a rotary motion, with all the power 
applied within one inch of the center of the shaft, and one that 
lias been fully tested and improved by two years’ experience, is 
now offered to the public. Every Mill is tested, and no one is 
sent, out unless it will grind a bushel of hard Corn fine enough 
for stock feed in eight'minutes; many kinds of Grain it will 
grind much faster. 
It is the PREMIUM MILL for the People, and obtained the 
SILVER MEDAL at the late Exhibition at the American 
Institute in the City of New-York. 
The People's Mill can be put into any saw mill. 
The People's Mill is the cheapest Mill ever offered to the public. 
The People's Mill is the simplest Mill ever made. 
THE People's Mill is the most durable in use. 
The People's Mill has the mosl grinding surface of any portable 
TwE^Peoplc's Mill requires less power than any other doing the 
same amount of work. 
The People's Mill requires less speed than any other mill. 
The People's Mill is adapted to any kiud of power. 
The People's Mill is not a rotary mill. 
THE People's Mill obviates all the objections to the cast-iron ro¬ 
tary mill. , . 
Tiie People's Mill will grind all kinds of grain, coarse or fine, 
for feed. _ ,, , . , 
Tiie People's Mill will grind Plaster, Bones, Salt, all lands of 
Grain, Malt, Peas, Beans, Spices, &c , &c. 
The People's Mill largest size, requires about two-horse power. 
The People's Mill only requires about two hundred and fifty 
revolm ions per minute. . , „ , . , , 
The People's Mill largest size, will grind frpm one hundred and 
fifty to two hundred bushels of grain in 21 hours. 
The People's Mill may be renewed at the cost of the plates, 
which will be furnished at fifty cents each. 
The plates are made of hard iron, dressed or grooved on both 
sides, and the reciprocating motion keeps the grinders sharp. 
There is no bolt, to it, which, we think, experience has proved 
of no n>c on portable mills. The common sieve is sufficient for 
all ordinary family purposes. Three sizes— 
No. 1, a Hand Mill-price 820, No. 2 830. No. 3 $403

GUANO. 
We would call the attention of Guano Dealers, Planters, and 
Farmers to the article which we have on hand and for sale at 
THIRTY PER CENT LESS THAN PERUVIAN GUANO 
and which we claim to be superior to any Guano or fertilizer 
ever imported or manufactured in this country This Guano is 
imported by WM. II WEBB, of New. York, from Jarvis’ & Ba¬ 
ker’s Islands, in the “South Pacific (Venn,” and is sold genu¬ 
ine and pure as imported. It lias been sa'isfaciorily tested by 
many of our prominent Farmers, and analyzed by the most em¬ 
inent and popular Agricultural Chemists, and found to contain 
(as will be seen by our circulnis) a Luge per centage of Bone 
Phosphate of Lime, and Phosphoric Acid , and other animal organ¬ 
ic matter, yielding ammonia sufficient: to produce immediate 
abundant crops, besides substan'ially enriching the soil. It. can 
be freely used without danger of burning the seed or plant by 
coming in contact with i f , as is the case with some other ferti¬ 
lizers; retaining a great degree of moisture, it causes the plant 
to grow in a healthy condition, and as experience has proved, 
free of insects. For orders in any quantity, (which will be 
promptly attended to.) or pamphlets containing full particulars 
of analyses and tests of farmers, apply to
