The undersigned has obtained letters patent to
enable common Mill stones Cor 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 Of order. 1t will last
as long as the stones last, with an expense of so
cents every five years. To enable the common
mill stones TO grind corn into meal, requires
new buildings or extra power. 1t also be ap
piled to horse mills, threshing machines, gins or
any given power known. The same mill will
grind one-third more of corn meal by the intro
duction of this machinery, and can be changed
from grinding corn cob, and shuck to 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 constipating in its
effects, producing founders, cholics and various
other maladies which incident to- stock. Grind
ing co5s and shuck with the corn makes food
congenlal with their nature, and. cannot produce
any of the serious results above mentioned Stock,
when fed on corn exclusively, are deprived of the
benefits of dislensfon $50 necessary to the proper
health Of animals, by their being unable to eat
sufficient bulk to produce Gislension before the
animal becomes gorged. Cobs ground with the
corn produce this necessary dIstension, without
any danger of diseases arising from overealing.
Corn cob and shuek meal is improved by scalding,
and still more by boiling, and yet more by part-
al fermentation. All the preparations facilitate
digestion for hogs: But horses and mules will
moi eat fermented food, consequently :hey will re-
qu;re it dry or partially wet with cold water.
Horses, mules and oxen, when fed with unground
food, void much in an undigested state which is
OF course lost for all beneficial purposes. - =.

Having been solicited by Maj. Collins 10 have
my Mill adjusted TO grind Corn in the Ear and
Shuck, Iconsented that he should do so as an ex-
pertinent; and am able to saJ that it grnds
Corn in the Shuck at the rate Of 80 bushels per
hour; and the dressing of the stones is improv-
ed, that it grinds shelled Corn more than twice as
fast before, and by my watch, at the rate of Is
bushels per hour, and the meal finer than usual. /
deem il a valuable improvement and shall pur-
chase the right to use IT., as it viii afford me a
speedy way of feeding my horses and cattle, and
save much thereby.
