Synopsis
Bold new milling ideas and a practical plan to keep grain profits local
In Flour Mill Problem on the New Process, D. Bequette presents a practical vision for a flour mill that can adapt its size and capacity. The work blends technical design with a clear economic argument for supporting farmers and rebuilding local industry.
The book explains a modular mill approach, details a site and construction plan, and argues for fire safety, efficient labor, and streamlined management. It also includes discussions of governance, stock, and the idea of exporting flour rather than wheat to capture more value for producers and communities.
- Modular, scalable mill design that can expand or contract with needs.
- Fire safety ideas, a high water-tipe system, and room-by-room monitoring concepts.
- Economic case for keeping milling profits in the region and supporting farmers.
- Illustrations of governance, stock issuance, and the proposed company structure.
Ideal for readers interested in historical industrial proposals, practical engineering plans, and early efforts to reform agricultural economics.
