Wind Mill Now Made. 
VM3 BUY IT! TRY IT! 
After 21 years of success In the manufacture of 
Wind JUbs, we have lately made a complete change 
In our mill, all parts being built stronger and better 
proportion- d and a self-lubricant bushing placed in 
all boxes to save the purchaser from cllmoing high 
towers to oil It. The same principle of self-governPg 
retained. Every part of the Mill fully WARRANTED 
and will run without making a noise. 
The reputation gained by the Perkins Mill in the 
past has induced some unscrupulous persons to Imi¬ 
tate the mill and even to take our name an 1 apply it 
to an Inferior mill. Re not deceived, none genuine 
unless stamped as below. We manufacture both 
Pumping and Geared Mills. Tanks, Pumps, etc., and 
General Wind-Mill Supplies. Good Agents wanted.
