A Bit of History Concerning Them , How they Have j Grown The Flour tboy Manufacture. Odds nml EniM from tlint ThrlvinR Flnoo. Correspondence o ( The Hoc. Mit.i'oiu > , Neb. , November M. About a thousand Nubmskn towns nro nsp'nu to bo grout in some way , bu Milfortl hns nehievrd greatness in onu rcspoct , at least. For years slio Ins boon striving to secure the proper uUHratiim of bor nia'iuf.icturint , ' aourccs , mid to.ilay I bad llio plo.iHiin . . .f oxamininjr , by far the lineal mill in .be at.ito Of Nebraska. From a little country suw and f-ri't mill , olcp by atop they have grown until they Imvu reached a heiyht of o ! hly- tbreo feet , only seven less than the roar will of Itoyd's ' Opera JIoiiso From making corn meal of common grade and fourth rate Hour tboy have gone up to the Htato fair of ' 81 and came back with lirat premium mid nil attendant honors. From a little frame structure these milU have developed into a mm of stone , brick nnd timber 48x52 feel , nnd seven ntone.i hi h , with two ele vators , nearly us large , and flour dust , room , ofliccH , etc. , situated in thu rear and connnotud by a wire rope transmitter. From doing a little grist business it 1ms now evolved into a merchant mill with the Ilunipiriun reduction syfltem which is now usi-d l > y the Minneapolis niilln. Bteul roll ers take the pliuo of buns , and the wheat is cracked in the first rollur , mashed in llio second ami pulvcriswcl in the follow ing live , ouch sot of roll ers buinu' closer than the preceding. After the wheat patsua these rollers it is bolted or Hifted through coarse cloth. This cloth lets the" disinte grated particles of whe.it through and passes oiriho largo pieces , which urn run through another act of rollers AIK ! again lo'luci'd ' , The germ ol a kernel of wheat in not good food. Jtmikoi flour blnok nnd unwholesome. By thu old mill stone procws the waxy germ wat ground up with the starchy portion nnd bolted through with the flour. By the new system of cracking ( he kernel instead of giindini ; it , thin germ is not ground but tl ittjnud and bolted out while thti Hlaroliy jinrtionsof the wheat are powdered into Hour. This in the only mill in Nohrus'di with this ma chinery , although u similar lollor sys tem it now used by onu that has just been completed and no doubt all liiv.t- clast I r'o , mills hereafter erected ill use the rollers , huUmall mills cannot , - for it takes a mill that product's ovur a ; hundred and lifty Inrrels a doy to use cr tii'i ( ) rollers pnlitably. ' th Them mills are n.'imed The QIUM 111 cluqnu J\ill,4 , and they manufautiiro w the ishofjo , thu ICollianua , and the wJ Popotne biiuuls of Hour. Any one Oil ( reading this letter aloud will bj c.ivo- III fill wlieu he comes to thene luna-n , They are not dangerous , provided yon let them alone , but don't tike them in your mouth for tboy are loaded mid W might 150 oil' . The words nro Aztec , Popotne means good , Kolhaiina means better , and Shogo means host. In They were furnished by Mr. J. II. Culver whoso Ar.ten researches liavo occupied much valuable time. I stinted out to say that this Hour is now sold in crmi nearly all the large towns in Nebraska , . mi , Kansai , Towa , Illinois , Colorado mid it the territories generally and that the of : cash invested in this milling business IH is not less than fu [ an A QUAUTKH Ol' A MILLION1 KOLLAUS , but eo many details crowded in us 1 cr wont along that I nearly forgot the main facts , If The history of the mills of jMillfon' ' Fi is somewhat intere.stini , ' . du The original print mill was erected to on thu present nito in 18iO.

In fap 187 ! ) Johnson and Perry of New York p [ w purchased a half interest and having tli nrnplu menus , commenced the erection all of thu present mills' The following alof year they purchased the remaining of intoroit .of Davison and Culver and tl continued their improvements ami tltt they uru not near through , and yet tl they have now a larger mid a bettor tlT tlS. mill than any in Nebraska , Kansas , S. Iowa Colorado. S.ii or . in It in strange how many things there iib iiN are in this world that we don't know. b Now I never dreamed that Nebraska ty had eueh a mill iw this. I had seen ael a uueh in Minnesota , but did not pro- el HUino that Nebraska cared much about ela big milli. a Milfnrd , however , isnot yet satisfied. ui Thent u another mill situ here , and it uiHi won't bo long before wool , paper , starch or glucose will be manufactured bore , and mayhup all four , us there of in no limit to the power if that Lin coln cruel ; c.uml once getu a portion of of Platte nvur runningthroughthu Blue , thus giving the n.iiue head of water all thi'your round.

C. Wilbur t'ikes the ground that the soil of the western States and territories beyond the lOOth muiidian is , chemically con- tiideied , prolrtbly as fertile as any sim ilar ami in any part of the American continent. The only practical tpiea- lion iu in regard to the supply of moisture. Tlioy assert that in west a " ern Nebraska the average annual rain fall is as m'ciit or yroutor than in many : irls of Kuropo which are cultivated without thu aid of irrigation , and upon this fact they base thu statement that parts of the State can bu cultivated without the artilluial application water. It has been stated that the climate of the wojturn coun try is iindOi going a great change - that it is ur.idually becoming moitter. The recent rise in the level"of Great Salt . Lake , nnd lakes Mono and Owen : Kiistern California nnd Western Nevada , are cited ill proof of this hypothesis ; ; but it appears to be prut- well established that the rise of these lakes is due , not to any climatic [ change , hut to local causes , while agiiinst this theory is opposed the fact that thu rainfall records carry on for 'JO or ItO years in thu west , do not show any appreciable increase in the amount of precipitation. That ment , breaking of ground , planting trees , and the geneial incic.tso in vegt'tationhai increased the moisture thu climate , is undeniable as it pru- vi'jitsthe rain from goini ; immediately oil' thu surface , and causes it to sink into thu ground , thus increasing the moisture of thu giound and theatmos phoro immediately abovu it , bu Jhoiu is no uvideneu that thu rainfall thereby increased. Thus to a eeitain degree settlement , ami in that way cu'tivation without irrigation of what was formerly supposed to be an ( . and region , bus been imulu practica nil ble. To that extent , however , this can bo carried , still remains an open jiiiMtiuii , but from pesont indications would appear that funning without irng.ition has reached its limit in Kan- u.iii and Nebraska in the neighborhood the 100th meridian. The people the western part of both these stales are taking considerable interest the question of irrigatien.
