The undersigned has obtatDed letters patent to
enable conmon M,li stones (or rocks) now in use,
10 grind CORN, COS and SHUCK, into meal ,
for horses mules cattle, hogs, &c. thereby saving
more than one third of a crop, which is an impoF-
tant item with planters. The machlnery'uSed for
the above purpose Is simple and durable and can
mol, with fair means. get out of order. 1t will last
As long as the stones last, with an expense of 80
cents every five years. 10 enable the common
mill stones grind corn into meal requires no
new buildings or extFa power Ii also be APP
piled TO horse mills. thre>hng machines, gins or
anv gwen power known. The same mill will
grind one-third more of corn meal by the INTRO
duclion Of this machinery, and can be changed
from grinding c.Tn cob. and shurk 10 grinding
corn meal in the space of thirty seconds. Corn
alone when fed to stock is said to be by the most
PRACTICAL and scientific planters constpating in its
effects, producing founders, cholIcs and various
other maadies which are incident to stock. Grind
ing coos and shuck with the corn makes food
cOngPnial with thfir nature, and cannot produce
any of the serious results above mentioned. Stock,
when fed on corn exclusively. are deprived of the
benefits of di>tensiOn so necessary 10 the proper
healIh'of animas,) by their being unable 10 eat
sufficient bulk TO produce Gislension before the
animal becomes gorged. Cobs ground with the
corn produce this necessary dIslension, without
any danger Of diseases arising from overeauIng.
Corn cob and shuck meal is improved by sealding,
and still more by boiling, and yet more by part-
al fermentation. All the preparations facilitate
digestion for hogs. But horses and mules will

quire it dry or partially wet with cold water.
Horses, muIesand oxen; when fed with unground
food, void much in an undigested state, which is
OF conrseo4ost for all beneficial purposes,

Raleigh, Feb 20, ls45.


Having been solicited by. Maj. Collins to have
my Mill adjusted TO grind Corn in the Ear and
Shuck, consented that he should do so as an ex-
periment; and am able to say that it grinds
Corn in tAe Shuck at the rate of 30 bushels per
hour; and the dressing of the stones is so improv-
ed, that it grinds sheied Corn more than twice as
fast as before, and by my watch at the rate of Is
bushels per hour. and the meal finer than usual
deem Il valuable improvement, and shall pur-
chase the right to use1t, it will afford me a
speedy way Of feeding my horses and cattle, aud
save much thereby. :
