** Better be born lucky than rich." We are
in receipt of a sack of buckwheat flour from
the hand of John Jones, Esq., the chief me
chanic of Mrs. Rockwell's mill, that verities
his skill and reputation as a miller, as well as
the great perfection of the machinery for the
manufacture of that very desirable article, to
gratify the most childish epicure. A still
more noticeable fact was found in the sack of
wheat flour that accompanied the buckwheat.
Their new and improved muehinerv that re
turns the millings to the eye of the stone and
gi inds it over again, increasing the quantity
of the flour from two to four pounds per
bushel, while it imparts a dcliciousness to the
flavor that hitherto has not been obtained
hereabouts.
Our flouring establishments east of Bufl'alo
but just now begin to press into their service
this important fixture in the western flour
making. Mrs. Rockwell is eminently fortu
nate in obtaining the services of her brother,
Esquire Wilson, as manager, as well as the
enterprise of the young and aspiring mechan
ic, Mr. Jones, as chief miller. From the
opening of the buckwheat business in the fall
until now. the crowd daily around that mill
has resembled the huddle of teams at a mass
meeting. Their capacity for doing up wheat,
buckwheat, corn and chop-feed, is a thousand
bushels in twenty-four hours. X. D. P.
