I think It is a very good little mill and does its work with any kind of grain In a complete manner. When grinding oats for horses I can run through from ten to twelve bags an hour, with other and harder grain of course not so much. Of course the capacity of the mill would be greater than thO'if I were to elevate the tread power more, but as I am not pushed for time I make it as easy as I can for the horses. All that have seen the mill running think it a good one. Yours Truly, JAMES B. Timmy. 1866-2 A' FINE assortment of Pipes at W. R.
