     Does anyone have any experience with an Alexandrea  43 mill made in 
Saint Louis Mo. I am also curios about other horizontial mills, amount of 
cane you feed at a time and the size of the stalk, the power it takes to 
grind a 1" stalk or bigger? I use a Chattnogia 13 powered with my mules or 
horses now. What I would like to do is speed up my squeezing time to beet 
the hard freeze. We  have  the Alexandrea mill powered with a B John Deere I 
would like to compare notes on this mill (or any horizantial mill near same 
size) for production amounts. Loyd D. Arthur
