(2.) In apparatus for reducing wheat to flour, in combination, a mill such as G provided with suitable discs, the discharge-outlet being fitted with a suitable valve such as c, held in position by a lever and weight attachment (or other equivalent) to regulate the pressure and to retain the material within the mill until it is reduced to
