_Gentlemen_:--June 2d, 1868, our mills, bought of you, were shipped at your depot, and your man assisted us in setting up, with two carpenters. We started up on the 26th day of June, 1868, must say we had a very successful start. Ours is a geared mill and consists of two French burrs of the following dimensions: One 42-inch mill and one 36-inch mill, former for wheat, latter for corn. Our bolt is 20 feet long, 33-inch reel. All is easily run by 50 pounds of steam. 11 by 22-inch cylinder engine. We use 1½ cords of wood in 12 hours for both run, to full capacity. Average grinding capacity is 12 bushels per hour, with a yield of from 40 to 42 pounds of merchantable flour that will bear inspection in any market. Any one wishing to purchase mill-machinery can see a good sample of your mills by paying our mill a visit. Yours, truly, SMETHURST & BRO. Under date of December 1, 1869, Messrs. Smethurst & Bro. order a third run of burrs. N., M. & Co. NORTH UNION, Ind., Sept. 23d, 1872. NORDYKE, MARMON & Co., _Gents_:--Supposing you would like to learn how our mill is doing, I pen you a few lines. You doubtless thought strange of me not sending for your mill-wright, but we employ a miller who professes to be a mill-wright, miller and engineer, and in three weeks from the time he commenced we were running. The mills, bolt, scales, and all perform well; we grind ten bushels of wheat per hour while running the other machinery with 30 lbs. of steam, and 10 lbs. more will drive the corn burr too; we don’ pretend to raise steam above this. The miller put the wheat burrs in flouring order in a short time and put it down and made prime flour at the start; we have made 38½ lbs. of flour from 60 lbs. of wheat after it was tolled one-eighth. So far the mill gives perfect satisfaction. Your notice concerning note was received; I shall be prepared to meet it when due. Respectfully, Yours, JAS. H. ARMANTROUT. This mill is located in Montgomery County, near Crawfordsville, and composed of two run of stones, one 42 inch old quarry for wheat, and one 30 inch under runner for corn, in combined husk, also one 18 feet double reel bolt, smutter, &c. The power being a 10×20 cylinder engine, and two flue boiler 42 inches in diameter and 20 feet long. Three Feet Under-Runner Mill in LaFayette, Ind. UNION MILLS, LaFayette, Ind., April 18, 1872. MESSRS. NORDYKE, MARMON & Co.-- _Gentlemen_:--Having had one of your corn mills in use about six months, we take pleasure in saying that it gives good satisfaction in every particular. We can make about 30 bushels of meal per hour on this mill. The quality of the meal being superior to and more evenly ground than any we have been able to make heretofore on other mills. The sharpness and the temper of the burrs is certainly superior to any that we have ever seen or used, and we cheerfully recommend your mills to any one wishing to purchase a good article. Very truly, yours, DAGGETT, MARTIN & Co. ALFRED GAMBLE, head miller.
