HUNTLEY & HOLCOMB’ EXCELSIOR BRAN DUSTER.
ADJUSTABLE WHILE RUNNING.
This cut shows the Duster as completed, with shoe attached, with part of the outer case and part of the wire gauze cylinder removed, to show the interior of the Machine. The lower section of the outside case containing the spouts never being removed after once set up in the mill; the shoe can be turned to any position required, by turning the top plate with it which can be done by slacking the tie rods that bind all together.
The manufacturers have recently improved their already celebrated and widely-known Machine. They say in their latest circular, “We have had thirteen years experience on Bran Dusters, and nearly eleven years of the time on our present Machine, and think we understand the wants of Millers in this line perfectly. Our aim has been to make as perfect a Duster as could be made, and think we now have a perfect one to offer the milling public.
“Ours is a vertical Machine and so constructed that it can be run either with or against the sun, as may be required.
“The Wire-cloth Cylinder is made in halves, and can be unbolted and taken out one-half at a time, and can be turned around for examination on all sides while the Machine is running.
“We put on all sizes, a shoe to throw off dough balls or any foreign substance that would injure the wire-cloth, making it a perfect Machine without any other device than the Machine itself.
“We have had Machines running side by side with all the other kinds of Dusters and have always beaten them in quantity and quality of flour, and are ready at any time to put one to a test with any other Machine.
