August E. Kunker controls a 20-foot boring mill as it machines a large marine cylinder in January 1918. The apparatus was manufactured for Hooven, Owens, Rentschler by the Niles Tool Works. A white horizontal line above the third round opening from the top of the boring mill side indicates the high-water mark in the plant during the 1913 Great Miami River flood.

Cane-sugar mills produced by Hooven, Owens, Rentschler were sold in many tropical countries. The mill being manufactured for a Cuban plantation in this 1920 photograph had a 33-inchby-18-inch crusher (top right) and a series of rollers to squeeze the liquid out of the sugar cane. Boilers burned the leftover stalks to produce steam for the Corliss engine that powered the mill.
