In presenting this Machine to the millers of this country the
manufacturers say: “We feel confident that we fill a desideratum long
felt in milling circles, that is, a practical horizontal mill, having
the prominent features of economy in power, simplicity in operation,
cleanliness, and the perfect manner in which it does its work, yielding
more hominy from the corn than any other mill in use. The grain needs no
soaking or steaming, but can be worked dry as well as when damp. The
hominy and feed are separated before leaving the mill, the hominy
running out on a shaking screen where the fine is separated from the
coarse, leaving it in a perfect condition for market. The feed is
deposited on the opposite side. The mechanical construction of this
machine is first-class, and its durability and simplicity is unequaled
by any other known mill. It is compact; the space it occupies does not
exceed two by three feet square. The skill of a practical miller is not
required to run it, as any one, however limited their knowledge of
machinery may be, can operate it successfully.
“Our long experience in the manufacture of hominy and Hominy Mills
enables us to say confidently that we can now offer a machine
PERFECTLY ADAPTED TO GENERAL MILL USE,
And no mill in the country should be without one. We have witnessed the
rapidly increasing demand for this excellent and wholesome article of
food from comparatively a few to more than ten thousand barrels a year
in our own business alone. That Hominy is a healthy and nutritious
article of diet no one pretends to deny, as it has been ascertained by
chemical analysis and comparison that one pound of Hominy equals five
pounds of Potatoes.
“This Mill will work from FOUR to SEVEN bushels of corn per hour. One
bushel of common corn will make from twenty-eight to thirty pounds of
Hominy. Flint corn will produce a greater yield. The offal, or meal,
sells rapidly, and brings a price equal to that for ground corn, making
a superior feed for hogs, cattle, etc.”
We have a Hominy Machine, horizontal cylinder screen, &c., not a
continuous feeder, that takes in a charge of one-half bushel at a time,
and does first-class work, that we will sell at a less price. See price
list.
