A reporter for the Times visited first of the week re- | Power ‘Bros. new flouring mill Mon- | day, and found the four sets of \rollers, bolts, e.evators, screens, etc. running at full speed The ma- chioery in this mill was purchased jof the Case Co. Columbus, Ohio, and was placed in position by the company’s special mill wright J. F. Praster, and is guaranteed to be first class in every particular. This mill has a capacity of 60 barrels of | Hour per day, and being behind with orders the machinery is being run to its full capacity, from 7 o'clock in the morning until midnight. Three grades of flour are made, “Royal bigh patent, being their. best grade, and “Queen of Butler” their second | grade. W.E. Haller, head miller, has had years of experience at the busivess, and comes with the best of recommendations. The flour now turned out by this mill is second to none iv the state, and to those who are skeptical we ask you to give their best grade a test and you will want no other flour. We have given it a thorough trial and recommend it as being equal if not superior to any flour we have ever bought on the market in this city. Bring Your Eggs to J. E.
