Tbe drat Idea of arrauglng a mill so that It could be worked \whene’er the wind did blow” waa tbat of tethering an ordinary mill In the middle-' of n pond by means of ropes. When the Wind shifted the ropea were loosed and tbe mill dragged around until tbe •alia were caught by the wind, and It waa then again tethered as before. Later on a great pole, wblcb waa j worked On tbe principle o f a turntable.' waa affixed to tbe mill. Not until 1500 did Holland, the land of windmills, Introduce a movable dome carrying the sail axle. The dome ran on rollers and waa ablfted around by means of the pole mentioned above.
