ers, and the molasses mixer are
lined up to do a fast and
thorough job. When gram is de
livered to the mill by the farm
er to be ground and mixed into
their formulas, they merely
dump it into a pit where it is
automatically fed into the ham
mermill, is automatically, weigh
ed after it is ground, and then
goes through the mixers. Driv
ing onto the scales to weigh the
load, and then the empty vehicle,
is completely eliminated.
Grains received by railroad
car or truck will go over the
new two air super cleaner be
fore going into the bins. A
corn cutter and. grader will
turn out the finest cut corn
for scratch grain mixtures. An
oat crimper will be a new serv
ice in the couniy Farm Bureau
operation. For the mixing of
regular formulas which will be
carried in stock, such as 14 per
cent Dairy Feed, New Holland
22 per cent Laying Mash, 32 per
cent Steer Supplement, Beef
Supplement A, and others, a
Gyro Whip Feder Dresser will
assure high quality feds by re
moving foreign material which
could be harmful to live stock.
Dust collectors are incorporat
ed in the line in order to re
tain all the valuable feed in
gredients. An automatic and
fool-proof scales will weigh
100 pounds into each bag.
For the general and everyday
operation, another limp and la
bor saver is the Weigh Buggy.
The exact amount of grains and
ingredients for each formula will
be drawn from the bins into this
WeigKHßuggy, and then dumped
into the mixer. This eliminates
the bagging, weighing and emp
tying the bags into the mixer.
Bagged ingredients will be con
veyed from the warehouse to the
mixtures by belt conveyor. A
portable-automatic scales can be
placed under numerous over
head bins for the filling of 100
pound bags with grains, scratch
feeds and others For future im
pxovement, provisions are made
for adding a conveyor-blending
system which would take part of
the load off the two mixers.
This New Holland branch of
the Lancaster County Farm
Bureau will not only be a mod
