its being established here and of

Equipped Mill or l.artre Capacity.
F there is one business • feature of
IExeter of which, snore than any
..
other, her citizens are unanimously
proud, it is the Exeter Roller Mills,
situated in the veryheart of the town
and sure to attract the attention of all
by its loftiness and striking. appearance,
This grand industry has been in run-
ning order just two weeks and is well
worthy of inspection. The company
was organized last winter, being com-
posed 'of Messrs, A. J. Rollins and John
Williams, and it can be safely said that
they have ono of the best equipped.
mills in Western Ontario. With this
fact m view we feel confident' that
their manufacture of flour etc, will
meet with uniyersal satisfaction. 'Their
motto of business is, "Not how much,
but how fine," and with this principle
strictly adhered to theirs will prose
undoubtedly an undeviated course of
success.
The season le now neon us which
arouses renewed interest iu that par-
ticular class of manufacturing which
ecmes nearest home to the heart of
agriculturists, the final handling of the
grain that has so abundantly awarded
the farmer this season for his labor,
before it is shipped away in the forte
of flour to points at varying distances,
or finds a place of repose in the flour
bins ar,d pantries nearer home. A visit
to the Exeter Roller mills here suggests
itself therefore naturally to the Anvo-
CATn at this juncture in the coarse of
its effects to brim the various indus-
tries of this town and vicinity promin-
ently before its readers. As may natur-
ally be supposed the institution in
question presents an animated scene;
but will be moreso when the newly
harvested cereals begin to pour ill from
the beautiful surrounding' coururv.
This establishment will be a great
benefit to the town as well as to the
farming community. The firm intends
to keep the mill running steadily day
and Tright, and to do this they will con-
sume over eight hundred cords of wood
yearly, thus enlarging a market for a
claae of wood that is not suitable fo.
domestic purposes. Then again they
will require 750 bushels of wheat daily,
or •a total for the year of 234,750 bush-
els. A large amount of. coarse grain
will also be purchased and in grinding
up such quantities of wheat the firm
will be able to supply thelarge local
track with bran and shorts and other
mill offal, which is an advantage to
them aS well 1.18 i he farming contni unity
It scarcely seems necessary to Perch'
in detail to the inner life of the mill.
From the time of entering the scene of
activity it impresses itself on the mince.
Active, cheerful operatives attend the
various stages of the mill's operations,
and on every side an air of earnest
.e! '._:ver ou the part of all hands to
for ward the interest of the . establish
ment, and to oblige the public reigns
supreme, The grain is received upon
a scale, of the most approved pattern,
and after being classified it sinks out
of sight, only, however, to be hurried
off by the endless carriersto its own
particular. corner in the spacious ele-
vator, whose ample bins have an ag-
gregate capacity of 20,000 bushels.
Aleanwhile the grain runs on from the
elevator into the mill proper, passes
through several cleaning; machines;
next the grain is hustled through a smut
machine and thence into the rolls; on
through the rolls it rushes along, get-
ting a lively moye on from first to last,
through breakers and numberless puri-
fiers, and finally bearing no marks
which may have started with it on its
mad career, it pours fourth in a stream
of clear, white and beautiful. flour of
irreproachable quality: .A glance at
the modus opeinncla generally it is easy
to understand that the firm is anxious
to secure all the grain from the sur-
rounding section that they cart get
hold of in order to supply material for
those innumerable iron teeter to grind at'
The machinery throughout the mill
is driven by an 85 horse -power engine
of modern design which runs with ease
and accuracy,
An important branch of the business
will be the extensive gristing, and in
this department the firni will endeavor
to give thorough satisfaction to their
eustomer's. and to this branch they de-
sire to call the attention of the farm-
ing community of this section, the real-
dents of which can rely . Upon prompt,
courteous and liberal dealings in this
regard.,
As stated above, the operations car -
tied on in this mill bring to our town
many advantages, in the large num
her of farmers it attracts here.; in the
large amount of money which; it is
constantly putting in circulation here,,
and in many other ways which will
readily suggest themselves to the in-
dividual merchants and townsmen.
The all-inlpdrtant objects the firm have
ifi view is the bringing of the farmers
to this point whose trade is, in point of
locationa tribttttary to E7teter instead of
allowing them to find superior attract -

ner, one of the questions that ought to
be of the most vital importance to the
ratepayers of the village of Exeter,
that is, in what way can we best furth-
er the interests of our town as regards
educational advantages.
Now, .I understand it is the intention
of the Trustee Board of the public
school to open up another room in our
school and to engage a lady teacher to
teach the same. Bitt instead of en-
gaging a lady teacher to teach the
lower branebes of education, would it
not be infinitely better to engage a
teacher legally qualified to teach the
higher branches as taught in the High
Schools and Collegiate Institutes? I
mean by this, a teacher holding (say)
a first-class teacher's certificate, and
also , qualified to teach Latin and
French or German.
This may, on first thought, seem im-
practicable, but by carefully weighing
the advantages and disadvantages, ono
would find the advantages far to ex-
ceed the disadvantages. True, it
Would cost a little more, but that is not
the only thing at which to look. This
teacher being engaged especially to
teach the higher branches, would nat-
urally pass quite a number of Seconds,
Thirds, Matriculants, and others try-
ing the Public Scheel Leaving, besides
laying the foundations for many other.
professions; and for every pupil who
passes the public school leaving, the
trustees receive a grant from the gov-
ernment, so that, after all, the expense
would be but little more. Then again
these higher branches :being taught
would induce personato remain at
school, who otherwise would -not, and
others again, who would go away
from home for their education. Not
only so, but it would be a . great in-
centive to the minds of parents tivitig
outside the town to move into town to
educate their children, and if ei•rctim-
stances would not allow of this, they
would certainly send their children in-
to town, thus helping to defray the ex -
pensee of the school..
This plan, also, would not only fulfil
the object of opening another depart-
ment, that of lightening the work on
eaeh teacher, but in addition to this, a
better school and a better edueated
people would' be the result.
