For an improved Churn; Abner Murray, Athens, Bradford county, New York, June 27.
"This churn is to stand vertically; its dasher consists of one flat board, revolving on gudgeons, and reaching each way, to within two or three inches of the sides of the churn. Stationary slats are fixed within the churn, extending from the bottom to the top; they are fastened by one edge to the staves, and are sufficiently wide to reach within half an inch of the dasher; of these slats there may be two, or more. The upper gudgeon of the dasher passes through the top of the churn, and has on it a bevelled wheel, which is turned by a second bevelled wheel, fixed upon a horizontal axis, and moved by a crank.
The claim is to the placing from two to five slats, or breaks, perpendicularly, at equal distances apart, inside of the churn, to set between the joints of the staves, standing edgewise, towards the centre of the churn."
