THE origin of power and system in flour-milling processes is directly derived from the Greek watermill, a very simple machine with a horizontal wheel but no gearing. It sur- vives in some districts to this day. The great departure from this was when the Koman water-wheel made its appearance. This latter had a vertical wheel and drove the stones through... the intervention of cog-wheels. One hundred years intervened between the invention of the Greek mill and the improvement made by the Komans, and after the lapse of another four hundred years the Komans brought out the floating mill or ship mill. This was a structure with a water-wheel in the middle, and the power was obtained from the flowing stream. Taken altogether, watermilling held sway over a thousand years after the Greek period of invention. Then the windmill was sprung upon the world, and caused a tremendous sen- sation.
