"The New Grist Mill"
"The New Grist mill of J & C. W. Harroff, recently erected on the site of the old one, on Wadsworth Street, in this place, is nearly completed. Workmen are now engaged in putting in three run of stone, or burrs-one set of which are entirely new and of the latest pattern-which will give the New Star Mills, as they are called, an advantage never before possessed by any former establishments of the kind in this locality.
The building is large and commodious, being 40 x 60 and three stories high, each story about eleven feet, making it an extensive structure. The frame work is made of heavy timbers and the foundation of solid masonry. The floors and ceilings are of the best material and substantially made. It is covered with an iron roof, of the Holton pattern, put on by Frank Hole, agent, in this place. The engine-house, in the rear of the main building, is 25 x 40 feet, and one and a half stories high, making it not only a handsome building, but a substantial and commodious one, and is a credit to the genius of its builders.
The new mill will be put in operation in about one month - August 1st - and as the proprietors have spared neither pains nor expense in its erection and general outfit, we have no hesitancy in saying that they will do good work. Being competent, practical millers, the proprietors will do their "level best" to please their patrons. When this mill is finished, we hope all the farmers in this locality will patronize it, as they should, and thus encourage home industry. The proprietors intend to make it a "custom mill," and in order to sustain it, and sustain it well, farmers should bring in their custom work. "A word to the wise," etc, etc. Don't you forget it."
