| The undersigned has obtained letters patent to
enable common Mill stones (or rocks) now in use,
to grind CORN, COB and SHUCK, into meal
for horses mules, cattle, hogs, &C., thereby saving
more than one third Of crop, which is an impor-
tant item with planters. The machinery used for
the above purpose is simple and durable and can
not with fair means: get out of order. 1t will las
as long as the stones last, with expense of so
cents every hVe years. Fo enable the common
mill stones 10 grind ear into meal, requires NO
new buildings or extra power. Ii can also be ap-
pied to horse mills, threshing machines, gins or
any given power known. The same mill will
grind one.hrd more OF corn meal BY the intro
duction of this machinery, and can be changed
from grinding corn cob, aud shuck 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 maladies which are incident to stock. Grind
ing coSs and shuck with the corn makes food
congeDial with their nature, and cannot produce
any OF the serious results above menuoned Stock,
when led on corn exclusively, are deprived of the
benefits OF distensien $50 necessary TO the proper
health Of animals, by their being unable to eat a
sufficient bulk to produce Gistension, before the
animal becomes gorged. Cobs ground with the
corn produce this necessary dIsiension, without
any danger of diseases arising from overcating.
Corn cob and shuck meal is improved BY scalding
and still more by boiling, and yet by parti-
al fermentation. All the preparations facilitate
digestion for hogs. But horses and mules will
not eat fermented food, consequently :hey will re-
quire it dry or partially wer with cold water.
Horses, mules and oxen, when fed with unground
food. void much an undigested state, which is
OF course lost for all beneficial purposes.

VIM. F. COLLINS,


Raleigh. Feb. 20, 1916.


Having been solicited by Maj. Collins to have
my Mill adjusted to grind Corn in the Ear and
Shuck, l consented that be should do so as an ex-
pertinent; and am able to SAP that it grinds
Corn in the Shuck at the rate of 80 bushels per
hour; and the dressing of the stones is so improv-
ed, that it grinds shelled 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 Ii a valuable improvement and shall pur-
chase the right to useslt, as it will afford me
speedy way of feeding my horses and cattle, and
save much thereby. 80 -
