Bone Mill:
A bone crusher was a device for crushing animal bones. Bones obtained during slaughter were cleaned, boiled in water and dried for several months. After that, they were suitable for crushing with the special machine into a relatively dry gritty powder which was used as fertilizer.

Bone meal was used since about 1790 as a welcome supplement to the ordinary farmyard manure. From about 1880 it was supplanted by chemical fertilizers.
