PIKE'S “LITTLE GIANT” QUART
MILL. :
We give annexed a finely executed illnstration of Mr.S. B. Pike’s improved " Little Giant"
Quartz Mill.showing, in detail, all tts parts and
the inode of operating the machine, ‘The particular end keptin view by the inventor, in
devising thia muchine, was snch a combination
of working partsand power, as would seeure a
“practical dry crusher, combining the grinding
and pulverizing prineiple of the Chiti mill{’
without its slowness, with the striking effvet
of the stamps ; the whole admitting of a trea
discharge without the possibility of packing ;
and all this with a perfeet confinement of the
dust uanally so iletrimental to machinery and
injurious to health, where dry-crusbiug is ¢inployed. _
