BUCKWHEAT BOLTS.
We make these of various sizes. Some are wanted to make flour rapidly for some particular markets, and require to be of large size, with medium fine cloth. Those in most common demand are for custom mills and of two sizes: one with 8 feet, and one with 10 feet reels in complete chests with conveyor and necessary cut-offs for changing grade of flour; a shaft with coupling, and outside pulley or pair of bevel gear wheels is furnished, so that it can be driven from either end. Every thing is done to facilitate the convenience of setting up and attaching power. The cloth is made up of “Dufour & Co.’s best Dutch Anchor,” to fit the reel, and of proper numbers for the work required. When a bolt is wanted for this purpose we should know the capacity required of it, &c.
Meal Bolts.
These are made in chests with conveyor, cut-offs, &c., as described under head of “Buckwheat Bolts.” Cloth adapted to requirements, either of wire or silk. These are of two sizes, 5½ and 8 feet reels.
Belting.
“A good belt is what I want,” is the remark often made, and to supply our already large trade in this line, we have made the necessary arrangements to ship on call what may be wanted at the lowest rates. In ordering, it is well to state the purpose for which it is wanted. For elevators, we recommend leather belting; when something cheaper is wanted, we furnish three-ply cotton duck. It is not so durable, but is firm, and strong as any gum belt, and answers a good purpose for a cheap warehouse, meal or feed elevator.
