Taper   Thread   Adjusting   Collar 

K;i8e  and  delicacy  of  adjustineiU  to  FINE  LIMITS 
are  .secured  without  truuhle  and  loss  of  time. 

All  lauds  or  prongs  of  the  die  or  hollow  mill  are 
adjusted  in  or  out  exactly  the  .same  amount  by  merely 
turninti  the  collar,  thus  giving  rise  to  the  term  CON- 
CENTRIC AD.JUSTMENT. 

This  concentric  adjustment  results  in  each  land  or 
cutting  edge  doing  its  proper  share  of  work,  and  as 
a  perfect  circle  is  always  maintained,  accurate  results 
are  assured. 

By  having  the  bearing  always  on  the  point,  there 
_  is  no  tearing  while    backing    off,    and  the  correct 
amount  of  clearance  is  obtained.

Dare  I  Reduce  My  Advertising  During 

the  War? 

GEORGE  F.  TILTON,  In  lOO;^'  Magazine 

Advertising  is  a  force  that  is  so  stupendous  as  to  be  almost  immeasurable. 
Dare  I,  therefore,  underestimate  the  results  of  shutting  off  this  wonderful  busi- 
ness power  at  this  time  in  the  world's  crisis? 


44YT  THY  should  I  advertise  when  I  cannot 
VV  ""i^I'ply  the  '  demand?"  a  prominent 
manufacturer  wrote  the  other  day.  In 
some  of  his  lines  the  raw  materials  positively 
could  not  be  had.  In  others  the  supply  was  so 
limited  as  to  make  the  price  almost  prohil)itive. 
Tlien.  with  next  to  nothing  from  which  to  manu- 
facture his  finished  product,  why  should  he 
spend  any  money  advertising  a  commodity  that 
cannot  be  bought? 

Thi.-  problem  is  uppermost  in  the  minds-of 
thousands  of  manufacturers.  We  admit  that  on 
the  .-urface  there  seems  to  he  hut  one  an.swer. 
and  were  you  running  a  corner  grocery  store  and 
were  you  depending  only  on  the  immediate  neigh- 
liorliood  for  yoiu'  income,  it  would  l:»e  easy  to 
Mjjve  your  problem. 

But  how  about  you  Ijig  manufacturers,  you 
who  realize  the  gravity  of  the  situation,  you  who 
have  been  .^pending  millions  in  advertising  that 
has  helped  to  make  this  country  the  most 
wealthy  nation  in  the  world;  are  you  willing  to 
trifle  with  this  powerful  business  agent? 


Hasty  decisions  ba-'^ed  on  fea'rs  and  ap 
-ions  often  lead  to  business  oblivion. 


>reli  on- 


American  business  has  readied  a  i)lace  in  its 
progress  where,  if  it  desires  a  suece.s'^ful  future,  it 
mu~t  make  haste  slowly. 

Have  you  measured  and  do  you  know  just 
liow  much  of  your  success  you  owe  to  advertising? 

Copy  the  following  questions.  They  may  lie 
worthy  of  deep  consideration  : 

(1)  Have  the  results  of  my  advertising  in  the  past 
been  only  temporary?  In  other  words,  have  I  adver- 
tised only  for  immediate  returns  or  for  the  accumula- 
tion of  good  will? 

(2)  What  will  I  lose  in  good-will  by  not  being  able 
to  supply  the  goods  I  advertise? 


(3)  If  I  stop  advertising  for  one  year  how  much 
will  it  cost  me  to  restore  my  sales  impetus  to  its  normal 
momentum  ? 

(4)  How  much  will  my  organization  be  affected 
and  how  long  will  it  take  me  to  build  it  up  after  the 
war  ? 

(5)  By  shutting  off  my  advertising  am  I  not  leav- 
ing the  way  clear  for  new  concerns  to  be  organized 
that  will  have  an  equal  chance  with  me  to  get  my 
business  after  the  war? 

(6)  How  long  will  my  business  run  without  adver- 
tising? 

(7)  How  are  my  competitors  going  to  meet  this 
crisis  ? 

Some  manufacturers  believe  that  business  is  going 
to  be  harder  to  get  after  the  war  and  ai-e  far-sighted 
enough  to  increase  their  advertising  in  anticipation  of 
that  dull  period.  If  business  is  going  to  be  harder  to 
get  after  the  war,  now  is  the  time  to  make  friends  with 
the  public  and  win  a  consumer  market. 

All  neriods  of  prosperity  are  followed  by  an  after- 
math of  business  depression — a  time  when  people  not 
only  become  frugal — they  become  niggardly.  Is  there 
a  business  force  so  well  equipped  to  overcome  the  bad 
effects  of  panics  and  depressions  as  advertising? 

To  some  people  there  seems  to  be  a  vast  difference 
between  "economy"  and  "elimination  of  waste."  Econ- 
omy and  frugality  mean  "management  without  loss  or 
waste"  and  have  nothing  to  do  with  excessive  hoarding. 
Judicious  spending  is  just  as  important  as  the  elimina- 
tion of  waste.  Depressions  and  panics  are  not  overcome 
by  niggardliness  and  parsimony. 

Let  us  not  get  these  terms  confused.  Let  us 
economize  if  we  must,  but  let  us  start  where  economy 
is  essential.  Let  us  discriminate  in  favor  of  efficiency. 
Let  us  study  our  manufacturing  costs;  our  overhead; 
our  depreciation;  our  method  of  manufacture. 

The  business  of  the  nation  is  no  stronger  than  its 
internal  business,  and  the  manufacturers  who  are  look- 
ing forward  to  the  securing  of  international  markets 
after  the  war  cannot  hope  to  succeed  if  the  nation  is 
confronted  with  an  interna!  panic  because  of  lack  of 
foresight  at  this  time  in  reducing  its  advertising. 

You  manufacturers  who  have  been  enlai-ging  your 
plants  and  increasing  your  production  during  the  recent 
time  of  prosperity  had  better  be  makinff  new  efforts 
and  building  a  new  consumer  demand  for  the  time  when 
business  is  not  going  to  be  easy  to  get. 

Advertising  now  will  make  your  future  secure.

WRONG  WAY 


QR/NDINQ  STELUTE  TOOLS 

FOR 

CAST    IRON 


IS  NOT  STEEL,  SO  DO  NOT 
.-.      USE  IT  LIKE  STEEL       /. 

DIRECTIONS  FOR  GRINDING 

"STELLITE"  TOOLS 


Figure  1  shows  the  right  way  to  grind  a  Stellite  tool  for 
machining  Cast  Iron.  Give  the  tool  a  full  Round  Nose,  and 
be  sure  the  angle  (A)  is  just  sufficient  to  allow  the  tool  to 
clear  the  work.  This  angle  should  never  be  more  than  six 
degrees. 

Whenever  possible,  operate  the  tool  without  top  slope  as 
shown  in  Figure  2,  since  the  centre  of  the  Stellite  bar  is  not  as 
hard  as  the  outer  surface. 

Figure  2  shows  the  improper  way  to  grind  the  tool.  Angle 
A  is  entirely  too  great,  and  will  cause  the  tool  to  crumble. 
This  tool  should  have  a  full  round  nose,  and  the  top  slope  as 
shown  will  reduce  the  cutting  qualities  of  the  tool. 
Stellite  tools  cannot  be  burnt  while  grinding,  because  they 
have  no  temper.  They  always  remain  hard. 
Always  use  No.  3  grade  Stellite  for  turning  Cast  Iron. 
Figure  1  shows  the  right  way  to  grind  Stellite  tools  for  grind- 
ing steel.  Angle  A  should  be  just  sufficient  to  allow  the  tool 
to  clear  the  work,  and  should  never  be  more  than  six  degrees. 
In  turning  steel  it  is  necessary  to  give  the  tool  some  top  slope 
to  get  the  proper  cutting  action  between  tool  and  chip.  It 
will  be  found  that  due  to  the  high  rate  of  speed  at  which  the 
Stellite  tools  operate  it  requires  less  top  slope  than  is  gen- 
erally given  other  tools.  A  top  slope  angle  of  5  degrees  is 
sufficient. 

Figure  2  shows  wrong  way  to  grind  for  turning  steel,  as 
Angle  A  is  too  great  and  the  shape  of  the  cutting  nose  is  too 
pointed.  The  top  slope,  as  shown  in  figure  2,  is  too  great. 
Always  use  No.  2  grade  Stellite  for  turning  20  to  100  point 
Carbon  Steel. 

In  Figure  1  the  Stellite  tool  is  being  ground  on  the  periphery 
of  the   grinding  wheel,  with  results  as  shown   in   Figure   3. 
This  method  is  wrong,  because  a  concave  clearance  is  given 
the  tool,  as  shown,  which  robs  the  cutting  edge  of  its  maxi- 
mum support,  causing  crumbling  and  failure. 
In  Figure  2  the  Stellite  tool  is  being  ground  correctly,  using 
the   side   of   grinding  wheel.     This   method   gives   maximum 
support  to  the  cutting  edge  as  shown  in  Figure  4. 
Tools  ground,  as  shown  in  Figure  3,  will  always  give  trouble, 
and  are  i-esponsible  for  most  failures  with  Stellite  tools. 
Never  give  Stellite  tools  any  more  clearance  than  absolutely 
necessary. 

Always  remove  the  wire  edge  with  a  carborundum  or  oilstone. 

Stellite  cuts  25  r;  to  300  c;,  faster  than  the 
best  tool  steel.

FOR  BETTER  TURNING  TOOLS  SPECIFY 

URANIUM 

HIGH  SPEED  STEEL 

ITS  use  in  high-speed  turning  tools  means  longer  service  between  grinds,  the 
ability   to    stand    heavier   cuts    and    coarser   feeds   and   greater    "all  around" 
economy.       The  photograph  shows  a  Uranium  Steel  Tool,  one  inch  by  two 
inches,  turning  a  heat-treated  steel  shell  forging  4.5"  diameter,   taking  a  quarter-

Two  Cuts  at  One  Time 

The  ability  to  face,  undercut  or  neck  with  the 
square  turret  while  boring  or  turning  with  the 
hollow-hexagon  turret  contributes  largely  to  the 
time-saving  and  economical  output  of  the 

Universal  Hollow-Hexagon 
Turret   Lathes 

Separate  feed  shafts,  each  with  ten  individual  feeds,  operate  the 
carriage  and  turret  saddle  independently,  and  provide  the  exact 
feed  required  for  each. 

And  to  this  great  advantage  are  added  the  other  essentials  for 
rapid  and  accurate  production — excess  power,  extreme  rigidity, 
great  adaptability,  and  a  power  rapid  traverse  that  saves  time 
and  conserves  the  energy  of  the  operator. 

Without  obligation,  ask  us  to  show  the 
saving  on  one  of  your  typical  jobs.  Send 
blueprints  with  rough  and  finished  samples.

The  Walcott  Lathe 

THERE  are  36  years  of  successful  lathe  building  to  back 
up  any  claim  we  make  as  to  superiority.  This  length 
of  time  has  enabled  us  to  study  very  thoroughly  the  require- 
ments of  a  lathe  and  its  present  day  uses.  The  outcome  of 
this  study  is  in  our  product.  Our  clients  will  verify  our 
claims  as  to  superiority. 


Thereare  two  factors  that  oc- 
cupy our  study  very  thorough- 
ly— Efficiency  and  Safety.  Not 
only  safety  for  the  operator 
Init  for  the  machine  also.  This 
lathe    features    drop-forged 


gears  in  apron,  32  changes,  2 
to  112  threads  per  inch,  quick- 
change-gear.  Lines  include 
lathes  from  14"  to  28".  An  in-

THE    THREE   ESSENTALS    OF   A 
GOOD  LATHE  ARE- 
GOOD  DESIGN 
GOOD  MATERIAL 
GOOD  WORKMANSHIP 


Let  us  send  you 
our  Catalog  fully 
descriptive  of 
the  many  good 
features  of 
W  H I  TCO  MB  - 
BLAISDELL 
Lathes. 


How  the  Whitcomb-Blaisdell  Lathe  Fulfills 
the  Requirements— 

In  Design  — 

Slimming  up,  the  Whitcomb-Blaisdell  Lathe  is  a  well- 
balanced  tuol,  heavy  and  powerful,  but  light  running 
and  not  clumsy,  consequently  adapted  for  a  wide 
range  of  work. 

In  Material  — 

Here  are  proofs  of  the  excellent  quality  of  material 
used  in  Whitcomb-Blaisdell  Lathes — head  spindle  65 
to  70  point  carbon  steel;  spindle  bearings  a  service- 
giving  bronze  that  resists  wear;  beds  of  semi-steel 
casting.  A  similar  quality  of  material  is  maintained 
throughout. 

In  Workmanship — 

After  all,  ^\•orkmanship  rests  chiefly  upon  the  work- 
man. The  men  in  our  shops  are  capable,  experienced 
and  satisfied  workers  full}-  understanding  and  contri- 
buting their  share  to  our  aim  to  produce  highest  grade 
tools.

POWER 

One  of  the  secrets  behind  rapid  production  is  the 
power  behind  the  cutting  tool. 

It  is  the  claim  of  the  designer  that  this  Machine 
has  the  most  powerful  head  of  any  machine  of  its 
class  and  size.  A  few  figures  substantiating  this 
claim  would  undoubtedly  be  of  interest. 

The  3  in.  belt  running  at  a  speed  of  1600  feet  per 
minute  is  capable  of  delivering  5.1  horsepower  to  the 
pulley.  This  is  figured  at  the  value  of  35  lbs.  per 
inch  of  width  of  the  belt  which  is  a  very  conservative 
figure  as  a  belt  in  good  condition  is  capable  of  deliv- 
ering upwards  to  75  pounds  per  inch  of  width.  The 
gears  and  friction  clutch  are  designed  for  a  load 
greatly  in  excess  of  this. 

SPEED  RANGE 

Please  note  that  this  covers  the  requirements  for 
hard  cast  iron  of  the  largest  capacity  of  the  machine 
up  to  and  including  the  proper  speed  for  drilling  soft 
steel. 

LUBRICATION 

The  gears  and  bearings  throughout  the  head  are 
automatically  lubricated.  This  means  minimum  of 
friction  and  wear  and  maximum  of  life. 

Note,  however,  that  this  is  only  one 
of    the    several   machines    built    by

THE    DIE 


Let  the  ACORN  DIE 
Cut  Your  Threads 

The  adjustment  is  mechanically  perfect  — 
simjjly  turn  the  cap  and  all  the  prongs  of  the 
die  converge  equally — a  great  advantage  over 
the  spring  die. 

The  Acorn  Die  Holder  is  smaller  in  diameter 
than  any  other  die  holder  of  equal  cutting  size. 

The  float  permits  the  die  to  follow  its  own 
lead. 

The  die  projects  slightly  beyond  the  adjust- 
ing cap,  making  it  admirabl.v  adapted  for  shoul- 
der work — and  the  chips  are  thrown  ahead  of 
the  work,  so  the  die  does  not  clog. 

Will  you  try  the  Acorn  Die  on  your  own 
work — under  vour  own  conditions?

FIRST    RAILROAD    TRAIN    IN    CANADA.    L  APRAIRIE,     QUE.-ST.     JOHNS.     QUE..     YEAR    Io36. 


Some  Facts  and  Figures  Relating   to  Canadian  Railroads* 

By  C.r.R. 

Railroading  has  filled  a  large  place  in  Canadian  life  and  progress  from  a  date  around 
some  three  decades  preceding,  and  all  the  iva;/  through  the  Confederation  period.  Nor  is 
this  to  be  wondered  at  where  account  is  taken  of  our  gigantic  territorial  area,  our  agricul- 
tural and  mineral  wealth,  and  the  opportunities  arising  therefrom  to  establish  and  develop 
manufacturing  and  general  industrial  enterprises.  The  part  played  by  our  railroads  has 
been  to  bring  to  and  place  the  man  in  touch  with  Canada's  variety  opportunity. 


VICISSITUDE  has  been  as  marked 
in  Canada's  railroad  enterprise  as 
it  has  been  in  the  spheres  of  her 
agricultural,  commercial,  and  industrial 
endeavor.     Despite  the  progress  and  de-

velopment  that  have  taken  place  since 
1836,  in  which  year  the  first  steam  rail- 
road train  operated  on  Canadian  soil 
between  Laprairie  and  St.  Johns,  P.Q., 
it  cannot  be  truly  said  taking  in  toto, 
the  situation  as  we  find  it  to-day,  that 
the    foundation    on    which    our    railroad 


fabric  rests  is  as  substantial  as  is  de- 
sired, or  as  had  been  anticipated.  The 
railroad  situation  in  Canada  at  the 
present  time  furnishes  a  variety  of  es- 
sentials to  constitute  it  into  a  burning 
question,  politically  and  industrially;  re-

particular  phase  of  the  subject,  it  is  not, 
however,  the  purpose  of  this  article  to 
discuss. 

Our    Railroad   Systems 

The  group  of  steam  railroads  estab- 
lished and  now  operating  within  the 
Dominion  may  be  said  to  consist  of  the 
Grand  Trunk  Railway  System,  the  Can- 
adian Pacific  Railway,  the  Canadian 
Northern  Railway,  and  the  Canadin 
Government  Rilways,  the  latter  embrac- 
ing the  Intercolonial  Railway  between 
Montreal  and  the  Maritime  Provinces, 
and  the  Grand  Trunk  Pacific  connecting 
with  same  at  Levis,  P.Q.,  by  car  ferry 
to  Quebec  City,  and  from  there  across 
the  continent  to  Prince  Rupert,  B.C. 
Having  regard  to  the  territorial  extent 
of  our  country,  there  does  not  appear 
to  exist  a  superabundance  of  company 
organizations,  even  including  the  Gov- 
ernment-controlled unit;  on  closer  in- 
vestigation, however,  it  will  be  found 
that  we  are  overstocked  as  regards 
transcontinental  railroads  and  shy  in  the 
branch  line  feature. 

Railroads  are  in  the  nature  of  life- 
givers  to  every  country,  be  the  latter 
young  or  old  as  is  our  habit  of  classifi- 
cation. In  the  opening  up  and  develop- 
ment of  a  new  land  they  are  at  this 
stage  of  the  world  s  history  of  the 
greatest  importance,  and  no  better 
exemplification  of  the  truth  of  this  as- 
sertion is  available  than  is  evidenced  by 
this  Canada  of  ours.  Without  our  rail- 
roads, not  a  tithe  of  the  existing  agri- 
cultural activity,  nor  of  our  mineral 
resources  development  would  have  been 
possible,  and  without  the  agricultural 
and  mineral  progress  that  has  taken 
place,  our  commercial  and  manufactur- 
ing achievement  would  have  been  a  sheer 
impossibility.  The  most  important  busi- 
ness in  the  world  is  farming,  and  in  this 
war  time — more   particularly-  since   Ger- 


fact  that  these  have  been  and  still  are 
available  in  quantity  far  exceeding  our 
own  needs,  and  without  doubt  will  con-

many's  submarine  activities  became  so 
virulent,  Ave  have  been  made  to  realize 
the  full  meaning  of  the  foregoing  state- 
ment. Food,  by  nature  is  the  primal 
need.  In  a  country  such  as  ours,  with 
its  prodigal  endownment  of  not  only 
the  wherewithal  to  raise  food  crops  in 
abundance,  but  of  natural  resources  in 
the  spheres  of  lumber  and  minerals,  all 
of  which  pertain  to  national  as  well  as 
individual  well-being,  and  because  of  the 
increase,  the  problem  of  transporting 
the  surplus  naturally  arose,  and  through 
the  medium  of  our  railroad  installations, 
same  was  and  is  being  solved.  It  is,  of

the  only  product  of  which  had  been

GRAND   TRUNK   RAILWAY   SYSTEM 

THE  Grand  Trunk  Railway  System  is 
closely  allied  with  the  early  history  of 
the  Dominion  of  Canada  and  has  contri- 
buted materially  to  her  subsequent  de- 
velopment and  progress.  Besides  being 
Canada's  pioneer  railway,  the  G.T.R.  has 
the  uniaue  distinction  of  being  classed 
among  the  pioneer  railwavs  of  this  North 
American  Continent,  havin<r  been  incor- 
porated in  the  year  1852.  In  the  laosed 
period,  it  has  acquired  by  lease,  amal- 
gamation, and  purchase,  numerous  other 
roads  of  small  to  medium  mileage,  the 
whole  being  now  embodied  in  one  large 
system  of  over  7,000  miles.  The  terri- 
tory served  is  that  of  the  most  thickly 
settled  and  productive  of  the  Dominion — 
the  eastern  part;  in  addition,  its  ramifi-

cations  through  the  medium  of  branch 
lines  and  feeders  are  so  comprehensive  in 
scope  as  to  serve  efficiently  the  require- 
ments of  industry  and  satisfy  fully  the 
lust  for  health  and  recreation  on  the  part 
of  those  on  the  lookout  for  opportunity. 

Inception  of  the  Road 

No  chapter  in  Canadian  history  makes 
more  interesting  reading  than  that  re- 
lating to  the  inception  of  the  Grand 
Trunk  Railroad.  The  story  takes  us  back 
from  the  present  day  of  high  powered 
locomotives,  of  luxurious  passenger  cars 
with  interiors  of  African  mahogany  and 
fitted  with  every  known  safety  device, 
to  a  time  when  transportation  was  in  <: 
very  primitive  state. 

After  the  completion  of  the  first  steam 
railway  on  the  American  continent — the 
Baltimore  &  Ohio,  in  1828,  the  little  col- 
ony of  Lower  Canada  projected  a  lint 
from  Laprairie  to  St.  John's,  Quebec, 
linking  the  Richlieu  and  St.  Lawrence 
rivers  and  providing  a  through  rail  and 
water  route  between  Montreal  and  New 
York.  This  was  opened  in  183G.  The 
rails  were  of  wood  with  flat  pieces  of 
iron  spiked  to  them.  The  first  locomotive 
used  on  the  line  was  known  as  the  "Kit- 
ten," but  the  engine  proved  refractory 
and  horses  were  substituted  for  it.  It  is 
related,  however,  that  on  practical  ad- 
vice being  obtained,  the  engine  was  pro- 
nounced to  be  in  good  order,  requiring 
only  "plenty  of  wood  and  water."  The 
opinion  proved  correct,  as  the  "Kitten" 
later  attained  a  speed  of  20  miles  an 
hour.  This  little  road  was  afterwards 
taken  over  by  the  Grand  Trunk  and 
may  be  said  to  constitute  the  beginning 
of  the  present  corporation. 

So  little  progress  was  made,  however, 
in  railway  construction  between  1836  and 


1850  that  in  the  latter  year  there  were 
only  fifty-five  miles  of  railway  in  all  the 
provinces.  Government  guarantees  gave 
an  impetus  to  the  work  at  this  period  and

on  request  of  both  the  Upper  and  Lower 
Provinces — Confederation  was  still  fif- 
teen years  distant — the  Grand  Trunk 
System  was  incorporated  to  give  the 
country  real  railway  facilities.  Some  con- 
struction work  had  been  done  on  a  rail- 
way planned  to  link  up  Montreal  with  the 
Atlantic  seaboard  at  Portland,  thus  se- 
curing   the    advantages    of    being    open 


for  traffic  all  the  year  round.  Railway 
work  was  also  going  on  in  what  is  now- 
known  as  the  Province  of  Ontario.  The 
prospectus  of  the  Grand  Trunk  Railway 
was  issued  when  arrangements  for  the 
fusion  of  existing  companies  were  con- 
cluded. Seven  members  of  the  Executive 
Government  of  Canada  were  on  the  Board 
of  Directors,  together  with  powerful  fin- 
ancial representatives  of  London,  Eng- 
land. Baring  represented  one  banking 
house,  and  Glyn  another,  and  on  the  is- 
suance of  stock  there  was  great  disap- 
pointment among  those  who  failed  to  be 
allotted  the  amount  asked   for. 

First  G.T.R.  Meeting 

The  first  meeting  of  the  Grand  Trunk 
Railway  Company  was  held  in  the  city  of 
Quebec  on  Monday,  July  11,  1853,  at 
which  the  Board  of  Directors  were  elect- 
ed as  follows: — ■ 

In  London:  Thomas  Baring,  M.P.;  Geo. 
Carr  Glyn,  N.  Wollaston  Blake,  Robert 
McCalmont-Kirkman,  D.  Hodgson,  Wm. 
Thompson,  M.P. 

In  Canada:  Hon.  John  Ross,  Benjamin 
Holmes,  M.P.;  Hon.  Francis  Hincks,  Hon. 
E.  P.  Tache,  Hon.  James  Morris,  Hon. 
Malcolm  Cameron,  Hon.  Peter  McGill, 
Hon.  R.  E.  Caron,  Geo.  Crawford,  M.P.; 
W.  H.  Ponton,  R.  J.  Whittemore,  and 
Wm.  Rhodes. 

The  plans  of  the  company  called  for 
the  completion  and  operation  of  the  lines 
of  railway  between  Montreal  and  Port- 
land, via  Richmond  and  Sherbrooke;  the 
building  of  a  line  from  Riviere  du  Loup, 
via  Point  Levis  to  Richmond;  the  bridg- 
ing of  the  St.  Lawrence  at  Montreal,  and 
the  extension  of  the  line  from  Montreal 
to  Sarnia.  The  Government  directors 
were  afterwards  dropped  from  the  board 
but,  in  spi'e  of  its  many  financial  trou-

bles,  the  scheme  as  outlined  was  com- 
pleted, and,  needless  to  say,  assisted  ma- 
terially in  the  development  of  the  terri- 
tory which  it  served. 

Sectional  Development 

Various  sections  of  the  road  were  open- 
ed as  follows:  From  Portland  to  Mon- 
treal, in  1853;  from  Richmond  to  Que- 
bec in  1854;  from  Montreal  to  Toronto  in 
1856;  from  Toronto  to  Sarnia  in  1858. 
The  original  system  was  completed  in 
1859  when  the  Victoria  tubular  bridge 
over  the  St.  Lawrence  at  Montreal  wa.s 
opened  for  traffic.  The  line  from  Detroit 
to  Port  Huron  was  leased  in  1859,  the 
Champlain  lines  in  1863,  and  the  Buffalo 
and  Huron  in  1867. 

A  turning  point  in  the  railway's  his- 
tory came  in  1867  when  Sir  Henry  Ty- 
ler visited  Canada  and  under  instructions 
of  the  Board  of  Directors  made  a  special 
inspection  and  report  regarding  existing 
conditions  and  future  prospects.  The  re- 
port urged  the  extension  of  the  railway 
through  to  Chicago — then  the  growin;"; 
emporium  of  the  Great  West — recording, 
as  it  did,  a  population  of  220,000  souls  in 
1867,  with  "a  commerce  that  was  one  of 
the  marvels  of  the  age."  Its  commerce 
has  increased  proportionately  since. 

The  Matter  of  Track  Gauge 

The  original  gauge  of  the  road  was 
5  ft.  6  in.,  except  that  portion  between 
Port  Huron  and  Detroit,  which  was  4  ft. 
8V2  in.  Sir  Henry  Tyler  advised  that 
the  former  be  made  standard,  and  the  lat- 
ter for  the  60  miles  between  Port  Huron 
and  Detroit  be  changed  to  conform  there- 
to. However,  in  1874,  the  gauge  of  the 
entire  road  was  altered  to  the  present 
standard  of  4  ft.  8^/2  in.,  so  as  to  conform 
to  the  practice  of  North  American  rail- 
ways gener-lly,  not  to  speak  of  the  many 
benefits  derivable  and  economies  procur- 
able from  the  facilities  arising  from  un- 
restricted car  interchanges.  The  new 
line  to  Chicago  'was  completed  and  open- 
ed for  traffic   in   December,   1881,  being 


re-organized  in  1900  under  the  name  of 
the  Grand  Trunk  Western  Railway  Co., 
and  financed  at  the  same  time  so  as  to 
provide  cash  for  laying  the  second  main 


way    System.      During   the    immediately 
succeeding    years     the    following    roads 
were  acquired: —

As  the  result  of  severe  competition  be- 
themselves,  the  Grand  Trunk  and  the 
Great  Western  Railway  of  Canada  amal- 
gamated in  1882.  The  Great  Western 
controlled  lines  from  the  Niagara  River 
to  Detroit  and  Sarnia,  as  well  as  the  line 
of  the  Detroit,  Grand  Haven  &  Milwau- 
kee Railway  Co.,  which  was  built  across 
the  fertile  State  of  Michigan  from  De- 
troit to  Grand  Haven,  Mich.,  a  port  on 
the  lake  opposite  the  city  of  Milwaukee, 
Wis.  The  mileage  of  the  Great  Western 
at  the  time  was  838  miles,  and  that  of 
the  Detroit,  Grand  Haven  &  Milwaukee, 
189  miles,  a  total  of  1,027  miles  being 
thereby  added  to  the  Grand  Trunk  Rail-

The  weight  of  rails  on  main  lines  which 
may  be  said  to  have  started  off  at  60 
pounds  per  yard,  has,  due  to  the  deve- 
lopment in  rolling  stock,  now  reached  a 
figure  almost  double;  replacements  in 
fairly  rapid  succession  involving  first  70 
pounds,  then  80  pounds,  and  in  more  re- 
cent years,  100  pounds  per  yard. 

Directorate  Reorganized 

The  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Grand 
Trunk  Railway  located  in  London,  Eng- 
land (to  which  city  the  directorate  had 
been  transferred  from  Canada  in  1862), 
was  reorganized  in  June,  1895,  with  Sir 
Charles  Rivers  Wilson  as  president,  and 
Joseph  Price  as  vice-president.  On  Janu- 
ary 1,  1896,  Charles  M.  Hays  (then  vice- 
presrdent  and  general  manager  of  the 
Wabash  Railway,  St.  Louis,  Mo.),  was 
appointed  general  manager,  with  .head- 
quarters at  Montreal,  being  the  chief  ^e- 
cutive  ofllicial  in  Canada.  After  the  new 
organization  had  assumed  control,  the. 
Central  Vermont  Railway,  with  mileage 
of  513  miles,  was  acquired,  included  with 
the  above  mileage  being  the  leased  lines 
of  the  New  London  Northern  Railway, 
extending  from  LondondeiTy,  Vt.,  to 
New  London,  Conn.,  a  mileage  of  159.5. 

In  1902,  the  Grand  Trunk  Western 
Railway  acquired  jointly  with  the  Toledo, 
St.  Louis  &  Western  Railway  the  entire 
capital  stock  of  the  Detroit  &  Toledo 
Shore  Line  R.R.,  extending  between  De- 
troit and  Toledo.

The  next  important  addition  to  the  pre- 
sent Grand  Trunk  System  was  the  pur- 
chase of  the  capital  stock  of  the  Canadi 
Atlantic  Railway  Company,  with  lines  of 
railway  extending  from  Depot  Harbor 
(on  Georgian  Bay)  to  Alburg  Junction, 
Vt.,  with  branch  lines  from  Glen  Robert- 
son to  Hawkesbury,  Ont.,  and  from 
South  Indian  to  Rockland,  Ont.  In  1905 
a  modem  car  ferry  line  was  established 
across  Lake  Michigan,  between  Grand 
Haven,  Mich.,  and  Milwaukee,  Wis.  A 
similar  car  ferry  service  was  also  es- 
tablished across  Lake  Ontario,  between 
Cobourg,  Ont.,  and  Charlotte,  N.Y.,  where 
connection  is  made  with  the  Buffalo,  Ro- 
chester &  Pittsburg  Ry. 

Among  other  extensive  improvements 
added  to  the  Grand  Trunk  Railway  Sys- 
tem, should  be  mentioned  the  grain  ele- 
vator facilities  located  at  various  import- 
ant tide  water  and  lake  terminals,  in- 
cluding Portland,  Me.;  Montreal,  Mid- 
land, Tiffin,  Depot  Harbor,  Goderich,  Sar- 
nia,  and  Fort  William;  the  new  terminal 
and  magnificent  hotell,  "The  Chateau 
Laurier,"  at  Ottawa;  the  new  Montreal 
offices   of   the   company,   while'  extensive 


Alfred  W.  Smithers  was  elected  the 
first  "Chairman  of  the  Board"  in  Janu- 
ary, 1910,  upon  the  retirement  of  Sir 
Charles  Rivers-Wilson  from  the  presi- 
dency. Following  the  death  of  Mr.  Hay.';, 
Edson  J.  Chaniberlin,  who  had  built  the 
Canada  Atlantic  Railway,  and  was  at  the 
time  vice-president  and  general  manager 
of  the  Grand  Trunk  Pacific,  succeeded  to 
the  presidency  of  the  Grand  Trunk  Sys- 
tem and  all  its  subsidiaries,  save  the 
Central  Vermont;  of  it  Mr.  Chaniberlin 
became  Chairman  of  the  Board  of  Direc- 
tors. The  Grand  Trunk  Railway  System 
with  its  subsidiary  lines,  exclusive  of  the 
Central  Vermont  and  Grand  Trunk  Paci- 
fic, has  now  a  mileage  of  4,785  miles, 
and  owns  and  operates  the  following 
rolling  stock,  in  addition  to  service, 
equipment,  and  locomotive  and  car  shops 
at  strategical  points. 

Locomotives    1,373 

Passenger  Cars   1.196 

Freight  Cars   46,430 

The  capital  of  the  System,  again  omit- 
ting the  Central  Vermont  and  the  Grand 
Trunk  Pacififc,  is  $1.50,902,895. 


System  Mileage  Detail 

The  Grand  Trunk  Railway  System  as 
now  constituted,  commences  at  the  east- 
e'-Ti  termini  of  the  main  lines  across  from 
the  city  of  Quebec  on  the  St.  Lawrence 
River;  at  Portland,  Maine,  on  the  Atlan- 
tic Coast;  and  at  Rouse's  Point,  on  Lake 
Champlain;  extending  from  the  first- 
named  along  the  shore  of  the  St.  Law- 
rence to  Richmond,  P.Q.,  where  is  form- 
ed the  junction  with  the  line  from  Port- 
land, thence  running  westerly,  being 
joined  at  St.  Lambert  by  the  main  line 
from  Rouse's  Point,  and  crossing  the  St. 
Lawrence  River  to  Montreal  by  way  of 
the  Victoria  Jubilee  Bridge.  From  Mon- 
treal the  line  continues  westerly  through 
the  thickly  settled  country  along  the 
north  shore  of  the  St.  Lawrence  River 
and  Lake  Ontario  to  Toronto,  from  thence

Service    in   Terms   of    Population 

In  the  forty  principal  cities  and  town? 
of  Canada  there  is  a  total  population  of 
2,918,788.  These  figures  are  given  in  the 
publication  "Canada,  the  Country  of  the 
Twentieth  Century,"  prepared  by  Watson 
Griffin,  and  issued  from  Ottawa  by  the 
ruthority  of  the  Minister  of  Trade  and 
Commerce,  Sir  George  Foster.  They  are 
based  upon  estimates  furnished  by  the 
various  city  clerks  and  city  assessors, 
and  may  be  considered  approximately 
correct.  An  examination  of  these  statis- 
tics shows  in  a  very  strikin?  fashion  th? 
notable  part  which  the  Grand  Trunk  Sys- 
tem plays  in  the  commercial  life  of  the 
Dominion.  The  cities  and  towns  served 
by  the  railway  ?nd  ste-'mship  lines  own- 
ed and  operated  by  the  Grand  Trunk 
Svstem  have  a  population.  pceo~dinT  to 
Ihese  official  statistics,  of  2.606,435.  The 
Grand  Trunk  thus  serves  over  89  per 
cent,  of  Canada's  u-ban  population 
grouped  in  its  forty  principal  centres.  In 
addition,  it  serves  hundreds  of  communi- 
ties with  populations  of  less  than  12  000, 
which  is  the  minimum  figure  for  inclu- 
sion in  the  Watson  Griffin  list.

"Highlands  of  Ontario"  to  North  Bay. 
A  glance  at  the  railway  map  of  Canada, 
and  particularly  that  relating  to  the  Pro- 
vince of  Ontario,  will  show  how  thor- 
oughly and  completely  this  pioneer  rail- 
road has  established  its  numerous  feed- 
ers at  points  of  advantage.  Of  its  five 
main  lines  from  east  to  west,  a  total  of 
650  miles  is  double-tracked,  constituting 
thereby  a  claim  to  being  the  only  double- 
track  railroad  in  Canada,  which  reaches 
a  majority  of  industrial  centres. 

Road's  Interest  in  Its  Apprentices 

The  education  and  training  of  its  ap- 
prentices is  an  important  feature  of  the 
operating  side  of  the  G.T.R.  activities. 
At  each  of^the  locomotive  and  car  build- 
ing and  repair  shops  distributed  over  the 
Svs'^em.  instructors  are  employed,  their 
duties  being  to  give  both  theoretical  and 
practical  training  to  the  lads  on  the  pay- 
roll in  the  various  branches  of  the  motive 
power  side  of  railroading.    Much  success

Volume  XVIIL 


has  resulted  from  the  initiation  of  this 
scheme,  and  due  to  the  fact  that  an  ex- 
amination is  held  annually  in  which  the 
apprentices  from  all  over  the  System 
compete  for  prizes  offered  by 
the  management,  not  only  is 
a  healthy  rivalry  created,  but 
the  ultimate  effect  is  such 
that  quite  a  little  army  of 
hig-hly  skilled  mechanic  is 
each  year  added  to  the  pro- 
ductive capacity  of  the  Do- 
minion to  the  end  that  we  are 
all  the  time  becoming  more 
fit  as  a  manufacturing  com- 
munity to  not  only  hold  our 
own,  but  take  and  maintain  a 
competitive  place  in  the  arts, 
crafts,  and  manufactures  of 
the  world.

THE    CANADIAN    PACIFIC 
RAILWAY 

PERHAPS  the  chief  cause 
of  Canada's  develop- 
ment in  recent  years, 
and  still  operative  in  accelerat- 
is  still  operative  in  accelerat- 
ing degree,  may  be  traced  to 
the  construction  of  the  Can- 
adian Pacific  Railway  from 
Montreal  through  to  the  Paci- 
fic Coast.  The  work  was  un- 
dertaken in  the  face  of  al- 
most insurmountable  difficul- 
ties at  a  period  quite  early  af- 
ter Confederation,  and  when 
both  the  agricultural  and 
mineral  wealth  of  our  Great 
West  were  practically  un- 
known and,  therefore,  unap- 
preciated. It  has  been  stated 
that  without  Confederation 
the  construction  of  a  railway 
uniting  the  Maritime  Pro- 
vinces with  the  then  Upper 
and  Lower  Canada,  and  the 
latter  with  the  almost  un- 
peopled North-west  Territory 
and  British  Columbia,  would 
have  been  delayed  for  quite  .^ 
number  of  years.  Further,  we  understand 
that  the  construction  of  a  railroad  to 
link  up  Eastern  Canada  with  the  sea- 
board of  British  Columbia  was  among 
the   inducements  held   out   to  the   latter 


to  enter  into  the  pact  of  Confederation. 
However   these   may    be,   it   is    known 
that  the  Federal  Government  in  the  de-

had  under  consideration  a  number  of 
schemes  whose  objective  was  the  con- 
struction of  a  transcontinental  line,  but 
nothing  came  of  them,  and  not  until  the 
Canadian  Pacific  Syndicate  signed  a  de- 


finite contract  to  proceed  with  and  com- 
plete the  work  were  the  hopes  of  those 
concerned  likely  to  be  realized.  Not  with- 
standing the  now  spectacular  success  of 
the  great  undertaking,  opin- 
ions were  freely  expressed  at 
the  time  that  even  if  it  were 
ultimately  finished,  "the  net 
profits  would  be  insufficient  to 
pay  for  the  axle  grease."  In 
the  light  of  Canada's  present 
engineering  capacity  and 
length  of  purse,  the  launching 
of  a  similar  proposition  and 
its  rapid  and  successful  accom- 
plishment would  not  be  consid- 
ered much  beyond  the  com- 
monplace, but  at  that  early 
period  in  our  national  career, 
the  engineering  and  financial 
problems  were  of  a  stupendous 
nature,  particularly  the  latter, 
evidence  of  which  is  to  be 
found  in  the  fact  that  it  was 
"nip  and  tuck"  whether  not 
only  the  C.  P.  R.  failed,  but 
whether  in  such  a  circum- 
stance our  banks  and  manu- 
facturing establishments  then 
operating  would  not  also  be 
caught  in  the  maelstrom.  Our 
national  credit,  in  the  light  of 
early  future  development  of 
our  agricultural,  mineral,  and 
industrial  resources  was,  need- 
less to  say,  largely  at  stake. 

Building   the.  Transcontinental 
Road 

In  brief,  the  undertaking  of 
constructing  a  transcontinen- 
tal road  as  agreed  to  between 
the  contractors  and  the  Gov- 
ernment was  as  follows: — A 
line  was  to  be  built  and  com- 
pleted between  Montreal  and 
Port  Moody,  B.C.,  within  a 
period  of  ten  years,  towards 
which  the  syndicate  were  to  be 
subsidized  to  the  extent  of 
$26,000,000  in  cash,  and  were 
to  be  given  a  land  grant  of  25,000,- 
000  acres  in  the  North-West.  In  ad- 
dition, the  Government  were  to  Hand 
over  to  the  C.P.R.  an  existing  railway 
line     in     British     Columbia,     of     some

225  miles  in  length,  also  a  railway 
line  between  Winnipeg  and  Lake  Su- 
perior, of  some  425  miles  in  length, 
both  lines  being  at  the  time  under  con- 
struction by  the  Government.  The  C. 
P.R.  syndicate  consisting  of  R.  B.  An- 
gus, George  Stephen,  and  Donald  Smith 
— the  two  latter  being  afterwards  known 
as  Lord  Mount  Stephen,  and  Lord  Strath- 
cona,  respectively,  had  been  interested 
in  the  reorganization  of  an  American 
railroad — aftersvards  known  as  the  St. 
Paul,  Minneapolis  and  Manitoba  Railway 
Co.,  and  not  only  had  their  efforts  been 
crowned  with  success,  but  they  had  in- 
dividually realized  lai-ge  fortunes  in  the 
process.  As  a  consequence,  it  was  felt 
that  they  could  be  trusted  to  make  good 
in  whatever  else  they  undertook,  even 
to  the  building  of  a  transcontinental  rail- 
road across  the  Dominion. 

The  initial  move  of  the  syndicate  was 
to  organize  the  Canadian  Pacific  Rail- 
way Co..  this  being  followed  by  the 
latter  assuming  the  construction  contract 
already  noticed.  Work  was  started  in 
the  year  1881,  with  William  Van  Home 
— later,  Sir  William  Van  Home — in  ge.T- 
eral  charge,  and  was  pursued  vigorously 
west  of  Winnipeg  and  along  the  north 
shore  of  Lake  Superior,  with  a  view  to 
early  completion.  Some  sections  of  the 
work  were  naturally  more  difficult  to 
negotiate  than  others,  and  therefore  cost 
more  comparatively,  a  circumstance  and 
experience  common  alike  to  railroad  con- 
struction and  all  classes  of  engineering; 
undertakings  on  a  big  scale. 

It  was  neccessary,  of  course,  that  th« 
company  find  a  market  for  its  securitie-;. 
and  in  view  of  the  heavy  drain  on  its 
financial  resources  as  a  result  of  the  un- 
foreseen e.xpenditures  required  to  over- 
come construction  obstacles,  it  was  high- 
ly important  that  same  be  readily  avail- 
able. Unfortunately  this  was  not  so, 
largely  due  to  the  efforts  of  opponents 
of  the  enterprise,  who  took  advantage  Of 
every  emergency  to  criticize  the  project 
adversely,  and  generally  throw  cold 
water  on  it  without  stint.  Towards  the 
end  of  1883,  the  company's  exchequer  was 
practically  empty,  and  to  keep  things  go- 
ing it  became  necessary  for  Angus,  Ste- 
phen, and  Smith  to  lend  their  credit  un- 
til a  market  for  the  company's  securi- 
ties could  be  found,  or  additional  Govern- 
ment assistance  be  forthcoming.  Early 
in  1884,  the  Government  loaned  the  com- 
pany the  sum  of  $30,000,000,  taking  as 
security  everything  available  whether  in 
the  form  of  road  already  finished  or  in 
process,  and  all  other  manner  of  asset? 
possessed  by  it. 

The  disbursements  during  the  follow- 
ing year — 1884  were,  however,  on  such 
a  big  scale  that,  before  its  close,  the 
$30,000,000  loan  received  from  the  Gov- 
ernment had  become  exhausted  and  the 
financial  position  of  the  company  had 
become  worse  than  ever,  if  that  were 
possible.  At  this  point  it  should  be  borne 
in  mind  that  quite  substantial  progress 
had  been  made  in  the  building  of  the 
road,  and  that  the  money  spent  had  gone 
for  that  purpose.  Little  wonder  is  it 
then  that  with  financial  disaster  again 
staring  the  company  in  the  face  that

C.P.R.,  and  Donald  Smith  his  associate, 
made  personal  loans,  and  gave  personal 
guarantees  to  an  extent  that  jeopard- 
ised their  individual  fortunes,  all  in  order 
that  the  company  might  not  only  con- 
tinue the  work  of  construction,  but  bring 
it  to  a  successful  conclusion. 

Despite  the  desire  of  the  then  Premier, 
Sir  John  A.  Macdonald,  to  co-operate  to 
the  fullest  extent  possible  so  that  the 
road  might  be  completed,  he  evinced  a 
hesitancy  to  commit  the  Dominion  Gov- 
ernment still  further  by  way  of  loan 
advances.     Politics  and  personalities  are 


understood  to  have  also  been  active 
against  further  aid.  In  the  end  the 
reputation  of  our  country  in  the  eyes  of 
the  world,  and  instinct  as  to  what  the 
completion  of  the  road  would  mean  to 
our  future  progress,  prevailed;  as  a  re- 
sult, a  temporary  additional  loan  of 
$5,000,000  was  made  in  the  early  part  of 
the  year  1885. 

Completion  of  the  Road 

This  last  loan  enabled  the  road  to  be 
completed  through  to  Port  Moody,  the 
last  rail  being  laid  and  the  last  spike

was  finished  in  four  years  instead  of 
ten  which  speaks  volumes  for  the  energy 
displayed  by  those  most  immediately 
concerned  and  interested.  In  the  course 
of  the  year  1885,  a  market  was  found 
for  the  Company's  Bonds  to  the  amount 
of  $35,000,000  out  of  the  proceeds  of 
which  the  government  was  paid  in  full, 
except  that,  in  part  payment,  the  latter 
consented  to  take  back  some  7,500,000 
acres  of  land  as  representing  in  value 
$10,000,000  of  the  advances. 

Dawn   of  C.P.R.   Prosperity 

Gradually,  with  the  construction  of 
the  transcontinental  road  off  its  hands, 
the  Canadian  Pacific  Railway  Co.,  de- 
veloped stability,  so  much  so  that  in  the 
year  1894,  when  so  many  railroads  on 
this  continent  went  into  the  hands  of 
receivers,  the  worst  that  happened  as 
far  as  the  C.P.R  was  concerned,  was  the 
suspension  of  its  5  per  cent,  dividend 
for  the  latter  half  of  that  year,  and  the 
first  half  of  1895.  Within  twelve  months. 
however,  payments  were  resumed,  and 
the  progress  made  since,  has  been  both 
steady  and  substantial.  In  1890,  the  net 
earnings   amounted   to   $6,300,000;   while

then,  no  better  evidence  could  be  forth- 
coming than  that  which  the  present  cap- 
ital stock  of  $260,000,000  (ordinary) 
demonstrates.

for  the  year  ending  June  30th,  1916, 
the  net  earnings,  excluding  those  of  the 
Pacific  Coast  Steamships,  Commercial 
Telepgraph,  and  News^^Department, 
amounted  to  $36,996,435.44.  In  the  early 
days  of  the  road's  operating  activities, 
the  capital  stock  of  the  C.P.R.  amounted 
to  $65,000,000,  and  as  showing  the 
growth   and   progress   of   the   road   since 


planned  betwen  Montreal  and  Port 
Moody,  B.C.,  was  2,285  miles;  to  Van- 
couver, the  present  Western  Terminal,  it 
is  2,898  miles.  The  original  line  ran 
through  Winnipeg,  Brandon,  Regina, 
Moose  Jaw,  Medicine  Hat,  Calgary, 
through  the  Kicking  Horse  Pass  by 
Banff  and  Sicamous  Junction  to  Van- 
couver, but  since  then  a  perfect  network 


of  lines  has  been  run  north  and  south  of 
it  from  Winnipeg  or  from  stations  some 
distance  west  of  Winnipeg.  There  can 
be  little  doubt  that  in  the  near  future  an 
extension  will  be  made  in  a  north-west- 
ly  direction  through  the  Peace  River  Dis- 
trict, and  thence  ultimately  find  an  out- 
let by  some  comparatively  easy  northern 
pass  through  the  Rockies  to  the  Pacific. 
Already  by  the  Southern  extension  the 
company  has  found  another  pass  through 
the  Rockies — the  Crow's  Nest  Pass, 
which  established  the  important  towns 
of  Lethbridge  and  MacLeod,  and  brought 
into  notice  and  service  the  coal  deposits: 
of  Southern  British  Columbia,  and  also 
gave  another  line  of  access  to  the  fruit- 
growing valleys  of  British  Columbia,  be- 
sides those  already  in  existence  from 
Revelstoke  and  Sicamous  Junction. 

The  mileage  of  the  C.P.R.  lines,  in- 
cluding those  owned,  leased,  operated  for 
owners,  on  which  running  powers  have 
been  granted,  etc.,  according  to  the 
Annual  Report  for  the  year  ended  June 
."^0,  1916.  is  as  follows: — Eastern  Divi-

1508.6;  Lake  Superior  Division,  1110.2; 
Altantic  Division,  783.5;  Manitoba  Divi- 
sion, 2463.8;  Saskatchewan  Division, 
21.50.1;  Alberta  Division,  2530.3;  British 
Columbia  Division,  1221.3.  Mileage  in- 
cluded in  traffic  returns  as  at  June  30th, 
1916,  totalled  12,993.6,  which  together 
with  other  lines  operated  of  mileage 
383.6,  makes  a  grand  total  of  13,377.2 
miles.  Of  controlled  roads,  mileage  of 
4228.3   and  627.7  belong  to  the   Minnea-

Double  Tracking  and  Grade  Reduction 

Double  tracking  of  the  System  has 
now  been  in  progress  for  a  considerable 
number  of  years,  as  has  also  been  the 
modification  of  grades,  more  especially 
in  the  West,  and  there  is  little  doubt  that 
very  great  progress  as  regards  the  form- 
er would  have  been  recorded  at  this  date 
had  not  the  war  supervened.  The  con- 
struction of  the  Connaught  Tunnel 
noticed  later  was  undertaken  with  a  view 
to  grade  modification. 

Physical  Assets

including  railways,  rolling  stock,  ocean,

on  the  road,  on  board  its  ships,  in  its 
shops  and  offices,  and  of  the  settlers  on 
it  lands,  are  outstanding  features  of  Can- 
adian Pacific  Railway  Co.  administration, 
and  in  this  war  time  exemplification  has 
been  had  of  its  Empire  spirit  in  ways  and 
manner  too  numerous  to  detail  here.  The 
quite  recent  offer  of  a  loan  of  $10,000,- 
000  to  the  Imperial  Munitions  Board  for 
munitions  purchases,  and  its  proposition 
to  raise  a  sum  of  $200,000,000  on  the 
road's  credit  for  behalf  of  the  Imperial 
Government,  are  perhaps  sufficient  to 
cite  here.  As  in  the  case  of  the  Grand 
Trunk  Railway  System,  the  C.P.R.  is  also 
in  the  marine  field,  and  that  on  a  quite 


comprehensive  scale,  owning  as  it  does 
fleets  of  ships  not  only  on  our  great 
and  small  inland  lakes,  but  palatial  ves- 
sels of  heavy  tonnage  plying  on  our  Bri- 
tish Columbia  coastal  waters,  and  on  the 
broad  Atlantic  and  Pacific  Oceans. 

Connaught  Tunnel 

The  year  1916  was  an  interesting  one 
in  the  history  of  the  Canadian  Pacific 
Railway.  It  was  a  year  of  progress, 
however,  even  though  the  Dominion  was; 
still  struggling  in  the  great  war.  As 
compared  with  the  previous  year  there 
had  been  a  tremendous  revival  of  trade. 
Several  important  works  for  which  ap- 
propriations were  made  before  the  war, 
realized  completion,  the  most  important 
being  that  of  the  Connaught  Tunnel 
through  Mount  MacDonald,  in  the  Sel- 
kirk Mountains.  The  accomplishm.ent 
of  this  task  is  a  triumph  of  engineering 
and  labor  seldom  equalled  anywhere.  It 
is  the  longest   double  tracked   tunnel   in 


vestments,  cash  on  hand,  etc.  The  roll- 
ing stock  belonging  to  the  company  at 
30th  June,  1916,  was  made  up  as  fol- 
lows: Locomotives,  2,255;  first  and 
second  class  passenger  cars,  baggage 
cars,  and  colonist  sleeping  cars,  2,183; 
firt  class  sleeping,  dining  and  cafe  cars, 
498;parlor  cars,  official,  and  paymasters' 
cars,  100;  freight  and  cattle  cars,  all 
kinds,  87,108;  conductors'  vans,  1,420; 
boarding,  tool  and  auxiliary  cars,  and 
steam  shovels,  6,867.  Of  the  first  and 
second  class  passenger  cars,  baggape, 
and  colonist  sleeping  cars,  12  on  the  St. 
John  and  Boston  line,  14  on  the  Montreal 
and  Boston  line,  and  19  on  the  Toronto, 
Hamilton,  and  Buffalo  line,  are  outside 
owned  to  the  extent  of  80.04,  68.33,  and 
63.96  per  cent,  respectively. 

.  Revenue    From    Land    Owned 

Naturally  with  the  settlement  that  has 
taken  place  in  Western  Canada,  durinc 
the  past  two  decades  or  less,  the  land 
received  when  construction  of  the  road 
was  undertaken  has  become  a  very  ma- 
terial source  of  revenue,  and  as  a  com- 
paratively trifling  amount  of  the  land 
then  received  has  so  far  passed  out  of 
the  company's  control,  it  will  bs  appar-

the  Western  Hemisphere.  The  leng-th  is 
about  5  miles.  The  work  was  perform- 
ed in  two  and  a  half  years,  constituting 
a  world's  record.  The  number  of  men 
employed  was  about  600.  The  Con- 
naught  Tunnel  to  the  C.P.R.  means  the 
elimination  of  several  miles  of  snow- 
sheds,  reduction  of  distance  connecting 
railway  points,  also  making  effective  a 
big  grade  reduction.  The  cost  of  the 
undertaking  was  $6,500,000.  The  amount 
of  material  taken  from  the  bore  was  ap- 
proximately 750,000  cubic  yards,  weigh- 
ing in  round  figures  over  1,500,000  tons. 
Much  of  the  centre  portion  of  the  bore 
was  through   solid  rock. 

Previous  to  this  achievement,  the 
longest  railway  tunnel  on  the  American 
Continent  was  the  Hoosac  Tunnel,  4% 
miles  long,  on  the  New  York  Central 
Railway  line.  The  work  of  the  Con- 
naught  Tunnel  began  in  January  1914 
and  progressed  steadily  until  comple- 
tion. An  interesting  feature  of  the  bor- 
ing operations  with  regard  to  the  soft 
material  at  the  start  for  the  main  tun- 
nel at  the  western  end  was  the  use  of 
hay  to  knit  together  the  earth  and  water 
which  oozed  forth  like  a  bleeding  wound 
as  the  excavation  proceeded.  The  hay 
was  placed  in  handfuls  between  the 
wooden  supports  used  to  keep  the  shafts 
from  falling  in. 

The  tunnel  which  is  29  feet  wide  and 
23  feet  high  follows  a  straight  line  under 
Mount  MacDonald,  emerging  in  the 
Beaver  Valley  at  a  point  about  1,000 
feet  below  the  present  line.  The  east- 
ern entrance  is  directly  below  Hermit,  a 
station  just  east  of  Rogers  Pass.  The 
highest  point  reached  in  the  tunnel  is 
■3,795  feet  above  the  sea  level,  and  4,065 
feet  below  the  summit  of  MacDonald 
Peak.  The  passage  through  the  moun- 
tains has  a  grade  of  1  per  cent,  up  to 
the  interior  summit.  Previous  to  the 
war  the  C.P.R.  annually  spent  from  $25,- 
000,000  to  $35,000,000  on  the  develop- 
ment of  the  West,  and  the  excavation 
of    the    Connaught    Tunnel    during    the

period  of  hostidlities  shows  that  Canidi 
is  strong  to  advance  at  home  as  she  is 
undoubtedly  strong  to  fight  abroad. 

On  July  17,  1916,  his  Royal  Hi5rhnes3, 
the  Duke  of  Connaught,  then  Governor 
General,  paid  a  visit  to  the  tunnel  and 
complimented  the  Canadian  Pacific  Rail- 
way on  the  progress  that  the  company 
was  making.  He  baptized  the  under- 
taking as  "The  Selkirk  Tunnel,"  but 
some  weeks  later  at  the  request  of  Lord 
Shaughnessy,  His  Royal  Highness  con- 
sented to  have  the  tunnel  called  after 
himself. 

Recent  Station  Betterments 

Among  recent  improvements  to  sta- 
tions along  the  Canadian  Pacific,  the 
most  notable  are  the  new  stations  erect- 
ed at  Quebec  and  North  Toronto.  The 
latter  on  upper  Yonge  Street,  was  for- 
mally opened  on  June  14th,  1916,  when 
Mayor  Church  started  the  first  train 
running  between  the  new  terminal  and 
Montreal,  and  declared  the  station  to  be 


C.P.R.   EMPRESS   HOIK',.    VANCOUVER,    B.C. 


opened  for  traffic.  Mayor  Church  con- 
gratulated the  Canadian  Pacific  on  its 
foresight  and  enterprise,  dealt  with  the 
good  relations  that  existed  between  Tor- 
onto and  the  Company,  and  referred  to 
the  offer  of  the  old  station  to  the  city, 
to  be  used  as  a  market  place.  Amongst 
the  speakers  was  Sir  James  Carroll  of 
New  Zealand  who,  in  expressing  his 
felicitations,  described  the  C.P.R.  as  a 
powei-ful  factor  in  the  Empire. 

The  design  of  the  new  station  at  North 
Toronto  is  a  free  adaption  of  the  Italian 
Renaissance  to  the  requirements  of  the 
present  day.  It  is  a  single-storey  build- 
ing faced  externally  with  Tyndall  lime- 
stone. A  spacious  waiting  room  70  by 
50  feet  of  lofty  proportions  occupies  the 
centre  portion  of  the  structure.  To  the 
east  and  west  of  this  central  block  are 
two  subsidiary  wings  devoted  to  general 
station  facilities.  To  the  north  of  the 
waiting  room  is  the  concourse,  opening: 
from  which  is  the  midway  20  feet  wide 
by  150  feet  long,  passing  underneath  the 
tracks  and  from  which  access  is  had 
to  the  various  overhead  platforms. 
Flanking  the  building  at  its  north-west 
corner  is  the  clock  tower.  The  vestibule 
under  the  tower  leads  to  the  concourse. 
A  sidewalk  (protected  by  a  marquice), 
is  laid  along  the  south  and  west  sides 
of  the  station.  Wherever  possible,  and 
there  are  but  few  exceptions,  all  mater- 
ials and  labor  employed  in  the  constnic- 
tion  of  C.P.R.  buildings  are  of  Canadian 
and  British  origin;  Canadian  timber  be- 
ing used  for  all  woodwork  whether  as 
rough    lumber   or   finished   millwork. 

The  new  depot  at  Quebec,  opened  on 
August  10th,  1916,  is  a  triumph  of  mod- 
ern railway  station  construction.  .The 
building  has  a  central  block  and  two 
wings,  is  akin  to  the  old  French  Cha- 
teau style  of  architecture,  and  is  admir- 
ably adapted  to  the  quaintness  of  our 
old  French-Canadian  city.  On  the  oc- 
casion of  the  formal  opening,  the  Mayor 
of  Quebec  referred  to  the  advancement 
of  the  city  in  glowing  terms,  and  a  tri- 
bute was  paid  to  the  interest  which  the 


July  5,  1917. 

C.P.R.  took  in  the  welfare  of  the  coun- 
try. 

The  walls  of  the  spacious  waiting  hall 
of  the  new  Canadian  Pacific  Railway  are 
beautified  by  a  series  of  mural  decora- 
tions representing  the  principal  moun- 
tains from  Calgary  to  Vancouver.  The 
decorations  are  the  work  of  Mrs.  Ade- 
laide Langford,  an  artist  with  a  wide 
reputation. 

Railroad  Acquired 

Recently  the  C.P.R.  acquired  the  Lake 
Krie  &  Northern  Railway,  and  bv  doing 
so  brought  their  lines  into  touch  with 
a  flourishing  and  interesting-  territorv 
in  Western  Ontario,  running  from  Gait 
to  Port  Dover.  The  new  line  has  con- 
nection with  the  Canadian  Pacific  main 
line  at  Gait  and  runs  in  coniunction  with 
the  G.  P.  &  H.  Railway  which  gives  ac- 
cess to  Berlin  and  intermediate  points, 
as  well  as  direct  connection  with  Port 
Dover,  Brantford,  and  neighboring 
towns.  The  district  in  which  the  L.  E. 
&  N.  runs  will  benefit  much  bv  the  new 
life  which  the  C.P.R.  is  putting  into  the 
tram  service  there.  The  transporfation 
of  farming  produce,  so  abundant  in  that 
part,  will  be  facilitated,  and  tourists  who 
wish  to  travel  in  the  beautiful  locality 
will  find  a  convenient  and  satisfactory 
service.  During  the  year  a  new  railway 
station  was  built  at  Brantford  as  a  re- 
sult of  an  agreement  between  the  C.P.R. 
and  the  Hamilton  Railway.  The  new 
station   serves  both. 

Changes   in   Executive   Personnel 

Of  those  who  took  an  active  part  in 
the  building  of  the  C.P.R.,  and  helped 
thereafter  to  lay  the  foundations  for  the 
gigantic  and  prosperous  corporation 
we  find  to-day,  almost  all  have  gone  to 
their  rest,  R.  B.  Angus  and  Lord  Mount- 
Stephen  being  possibly  the  only  ones 
still  with  us.  New  blood  as  a  result  has 
had  to  be  requisitioned,  but  all  of  it  has 
the  attribute  of  having  been  tried  and 
tested  in  the  doing  and  direction  of  big 
things;  in  consequence  no  setback  has 
been  experienced,  rather  has  it  been 
otherwise,  a  result  largely  if  not  wholly

CANADL\X  NORTHERN  RAILWAY 

DURING  the  closing  years  of  the 
last  century  the  necessity  of  open- 
ing up  undeveloped  lands  in  the 
West  for  settlers  in  addition  to  what  the 
C.P.R.  had  already  done,  created  a  de- 
sire for  more  railways.  Charters  had 
existed  for  long,  but  the  holders  had  not 
been  able  to  interest  and  convince  capi- 
tal to  make  the  investment.  However, 
in  1896,  William  Mackenzie  and  Donald 
Mann,  who  had  already  done  consider- 
able railroad  construction  in  various 
parts  of  Canada,  undertook  to  buiM  a 
railway  in  Manitoba,  their  charter  being 
that  of  the  Lake  Manitoba  Railway  & 
Canal  Co.  On  Jan.  3, 1897,  the  Gladstone 
Winnipegosis  section,  a  distance  of  123.4 
miles,  was  opened  for  traffic,  but  the 
work  did  not  stop  there,  for  the  sama 
year  saw  the  Winnipeg-Lake  Superior 
line  begun.     On  Nov.  28,  1898,  the  Win-

nipeg-Port  Arthur  line  between  St.  Boni- 
face and  Marchand  was  opened,  a  dis- 
tance of  45.4  miles.  On  Nov.  15,  1899, 
the  Sifton  Junction-Swan  River  line  was 
opened  for  traffic. 

The  Canadian  Northern  Railway, 
which  was  incorporated  in  1899,  had,  at 
the  end  of  this  year,  252.6  miles  in  oper- 
ation and  fully  500  miles  under  construc- 
tion. The  success  which  had  attended 
the  guarantee  method  of  aid  in  Mani- 
toba, inspired  the  Saskatchewan  Govern- 
ment to  follow  the  lead  given  and  de- 
velop that  Province  by  the  constniction 
of  railways.  In  1900,  the  Swan  River- 
Prince  Albert  line  as  far  as  Erwood  was 
opened  for  traffic  a  distance  of  92.5  miles, 
also  the  first  section  of  the  main  line  to 
Edmonton-Gilbert  Plains  to  Grandview, 
26.6  miles,  was  thrown  open.  Follow- 
ing came  the  Marchand-Beaudette  exten- 
sion of  the  Winnipeg  to  Port  Arthur  line; 
this  extension  covered  106.1  miles.  At 
the  end  of  1900,  477.8  miles  of  road  were 
in  operation. 

In  1901,  the  Northern  Pacific  Railway 
lines  in  Manitoba  were  acquired  by  the 
Manitoba  Government  and  leased  for  a 
long  term  of  years  to  the  Canadian 
Northern.  The  Winnipeg-Port  Arthur 
line  was  extended  from  Beaudette  to 
Fort  Francis,  and,  at  the  close  of  the 
year,  there  were  884.3  miles  in  opera- 
tion. Other  activities  besides  actual 
railroad  construction  claimed  their  mea- 
sure of  attention  in  1901,  an  elevator  of 
1.500,000  bushel  capacity  being  built  at 
Port  -Arthur,  Ont..  to  handle  the  grain 
shipped  from  the  newly-opened  territo- 
ries. In  1902,  the  Beaver  to  Gladstone 
line,  17.8  miles,  was  constructed,  giving 
a  through  connection  for  lines  built 
north  and  west  of  Gladstone,  with  Win- 
nipeg. The  Winnipeg  to  Port  Arthur 
line  was  opened  for  traffic  in  the  same 
year,  making  a  total  of  1,296.9  miles  in 
operation.  During  1901  and  1902,  the 
James  Bay  Railway  Junction  line  was 
built  out  to  Parry  Sound.  Ont.,  to  a 
junction  with  the  Canada  Atlantic  Rail- 
w^ay.  The  Great  Northern  Railway  and 
the  Chateauguay  &  Northern  Railway,  in 
Quebec  Province,  were  acquired  in  1903, 
and    construction     of     the     Halifax     &

C.N.R.  COAL  DOCKS  AT  PORT  ARTHUR.  ONT, 


Southweo'.ern  Railway  in  Nova  Scotia 
was  commenced. 

In  1904,  considerable  development 
work  was  undertaken.  The  C.N.R.  ele- 
vator at  Port  Arthur  was  increased  to 
7,500,000  bushels  capacity;  the  Winni- 
peg-Prince Albert  north  line  was  extend- 
ed from  Erwood  to  Melfort,  107.5  miles; 
the  Grandview-Kamsack  section  of  main 
line  was  opened  for  traffic,  also  the 
Winnipeg-Oak  Point  line  for  a  distance 
of  54  miles.  The  Toronto-Sudbury  line 
was  commenced,  and  at  the  end  of  1901, 
there  were  1,932.3  miles  of  Toad  in 
operation. 

The  main  line,  Kamsack  to  Edmonton, 
546.3  miles,  was  opened  for  traffic  in 
1905,  while  in  the  same  year  Brandon 
was  entered  by  the  line  from  Portage 
la  Prairie.  At  the  end  of  1905,  there 
were  2.846.9  miles  in  operation.  In  1906, 
the  Qu'Appelle,  Long  Lake  &  Saskatche- 
wan Railway  connecting  up  Regina,  Sas- 


katoon and  Prince  Albert,  was  acquired. 
The  Winnipeg-Prince  Albert  line  by  way 
of  Melfort  was  opened,  thus  giving  Sas- 
katoon the  first  competitive  line  with 
Winnipeg  and  the  East.  In  the  same 
year  the  Toronto-Sellwood  line  through 
Parry  Sound  and  Sudbury  was  opened 
for  traffic.  The  Quebec  &  Lake  St.  John 
Railway,  and  the  Niagara-St.  Catharines 
and  Toronto  Railway  were  also  acquired. 
At  the  close  of  1908  there  were  4,361 
miles  in  operation.  The  Saskatoon-Cal- 
gary line  was  opened  as  far  as  Rose- 
town,  Sask.,  in  1909,  and  durina:  the  same 
year  the  Duluth,  Rainy  Lake  and  Winni- 
peg Railway  connecting  Fort  Francis  to 
Virginia,  was  also  in  operation.  The 
Central  Ontario  Railway  was  acquired 
and  the  Hawkesbury-Ottawa  line  opened 
for  traffic.  At  the  end  of  1909  the  mile- 
age totalled  4,859.6  miles. 

The   next  few   years   saw   further  im- 
portant developments  in  the  C.N.R.  sys-

tern.  In  1910  the  Saskatoon-Calgary  line 
was  extended  to  Kindersley,  and  tha 
Prince  Albert-Shellbrook  line  was  opened 
for  traffic.  The  Bay  of  Quinte  Railway,  the 
Brockville,  Westport  and  Northwestern 
Railway,  and  the  Irondale,  Bancroft  & 
Ottawa  Railway  were  acquired.  The 
■Royal"  Line  Atlantic  steamship  service, 
now  a  part  of  the  Cunard  System,  was 
inaugurated  in  1910.  The  developments 
in  1911  included  the  opening  for  traffic 
of  the  Vegreville-Drumheller,  North  and 
South  lines  in  Alberta;  Hudson's  Bay 
Junction-Le  Pas  line;  the  Radville  An- 
tar  (Moose  Jaw)  line,  and  the  Shell- 
brook-Big  River  line.  The  Duluth,  Win- 
nipeg and  Pacific  line  was  also  opened 
for  traffic  into  Duluth,  and  the  Toronto- 
Ottawa  line  was  opened  at  Deseronto, 
Ont.  The  Saskatoon-Calgary  line  was 
extended  to  Alsask.  At  the  close  of  1911 
there  were  6,491.7  miles  of  road  in  oper- 
ation. 

In  1912,  the  Edmonton-Athabasca 
Landing  line  was  opened  for  traffic,  and 
the  capacity  of  the  C.N.R.  elevator  at 
Port  Arthur  was  increased  to  10,000,000 
bushels.  The  Shellbrook-Denholm  line 
and  the  Gravelbourg  and  Elrose  lines 
were  opened  for  traffic  in  1913,  making 
6,967.5  miles  in  operation.  On  Jan.  1, 
1914,  the  last  spike  was  driven  in  th>» 
Montreal-Port  Arthur  line  at  Little 
White  Otter  River.  The  Saskatoon-Cal- 
gary line  and  the  Toronto-Ottawa  line 
were  opened,  the  latter  road  giving  con- 
nection between  Montreal,  Quebec,  and 
points  in  Quebec  Province.  There  were 
now  7,358.2  miles  in  operation.  On  Jan. 
23,  1915,  the  last  spike  was  driven  at 
Basque,  B.C.,  a  point  182  miles  east  of 
Port  Mann  on  the  Transcontinental  line 
between  Quebec  and  Vancouver.  At  the 
end  of  1915,  there  were  approximately 
10,000  miles  of  road  in  operation. 

The  transcontinental  system  is  now  an 
accomplished  fact  and  necessary  con- 
struction work  was  undertaken  to  attain 
this  while  the  war  was  in  progress.  Be- 
cause of  the  great  conflict  in  Europe, 
railway  finance  has  not  gone  ahead  as 
fast  as  has  railway  construction,  and 
therein  lies  the  germ  of  the  railway- 
problem  of  the  present  day.  One  of  the 
reasons  for  the  construction  of  the  C. 
N.R.  line  connecting  the  Prairie  Pro- 
vinces with  the  Pacific  Coast  was  that  it 
would  provide  an  outlet  for  wheat  and 
other  commodities  to  the  coast  for  trans- 
portation to  Europe  via  the  Panama 
Canal,  as  now  recommended  by  the  Do- 
minion's Roval  Commission  in  its  recent 
reports  on  Canada  to  the  British  Govern- 
ment. The  opening  up  of  new  territory 
for  settlers  and  the  development  of  in- 
ter-provincial trade  were  other  import- 
ant considerations.  The  opening  ud  of 
the  Saskatchewan  Valley  for  American 
farmers  particularly  has  proved  of  ines- 
timable advantage  to  the  people  of  Can- 
ada from  a  production  point  of  view.  The 
C.N.R.  has  also  been  a  means  of  creat- 
ing competition,  thus  tending  to  steady 
freight  rates.  It  has  also  assisted  in  the 
rapid  erowth  of  population  and  increase 
in   production  of  a  large  territory. 

The  lines  of  the  C.N.R.  are  well  lo- 
cated in  view  of  traffic  conditions  and 
the   construction   of  the   track  has   been

accomplished  at  a  comparatively  low 
cost.  Easy  grades  are  a  feature  of  the 
system  and  an  important  one  particu- 
larly through  the  Rockies.  Had  it  not 
been  for  the  war,  the  C.N.R.  would  most 
probably  have  been  able  to  operate  the 
road  profitably,  but  the  financial  situa- 
tion during  the  past  three  years  has 
been  such  that  the  position  of  the  Sys- 
tem has  called  for  Government  assist- 
ance in  some  form.  It  is  likely  that  some 
means  will  be  found  to  assist  the  road 
until  the  situation  is  again  normal.  Can- 
ada went  into  the  building  of  railways, 
in  advance  of  settlement,  as  a  business 
to  induce  settlement,  and  that  settle- 
ment is  certain  to  come  within  a  rea- 
sonable number  of  years. 

To  carry  the  road  over  durins;  the  in- 
tervening period,  that  is,  until  the  new- 
ly-opened territory  becomes  a  source 
of  revenue,  in  the  form  of  freight  prin- 
cipally, some  assistance  is  necessary.  It 
is  generally  conceded  that  in  a  few  years 
the  C.N.R.  will  be  a  valuable  property. 
The  territory  served  will  become  quite 
thickly   populated,   and   production   from 


the  soil  in  a  variety  form  will  naturally 
increase.  This  will,  of  course,  benefit 
not  only  the  railway,  but  Canada  as  a 
whole.

CANADIAN   GOVERNMENT  RAIL- 
WAYS 

CAN.\DIAN  Government  -  owned 
railways  in  operation  include 
the  Intercolonial,  which  extends 
from  the  Atlantic  Ocean  ports  of 
Halifax,  St.  John,  Sydney,  and 
North  Sydney  to  Montreal;  the  Prince 
Edward  Island  Railway,  extending  from 
Tignish  to  Georgetown,  158.60  miles,  and 
from  Charlottetown  to  Murray  Harbor, 
52.30  miles,  with  branches  to  Souris,  El- 
mira,  and  Cape  Traverse,  a  total  length 
of  road  operated  of  274.6  miles;  the  New 
Brunswick  and  Prince  Edward  Island 
Railway  of  36.05  miles  in  length,  running 
from  Sackville  to  Cape  Tormentine  and 
forming  a  connection  between  the  Inter- 
colonial and  the  car  ferry,  between  Cape 
Tormentine  and  Carleton  Point,  on 
Prince  Edward  Island;  the  International 


Railway  of  New  Brunswick;  the  St.  John 
&  Quebec  Railway,  the  Hudson  Bay  Rail- 
way, and  the  National  Transcontinental. 
Railway. 

The  Intercolonial  is  the  chief  of  the  lot 
now  operating;  therefore  it  will  be  in, 
order  to  feature  it  at  least  first  and  in 
any  case  most  prominently.  "Railways 
and  tariffs  were  so  intermingled  with 
politics  during  the  last  half  of  the  nine- 
teenth century  in  Canada  that  it  seemed 
impossible  to  separate  them,"  says  one 
writer,  and  whether  much  improvement 
h-is  taken  place  since  it  may  be  left  to^ 
the  reader  to  judge. 

Inception  of  the  "Intercolonial" 

As  far  back  as  1835,  the  Intercolonial 
Railway  project  was  under  discussion, 
and  not  only  so,  but  tentative  surveys, 
had  been  made  and  negotiations  conduct- 
ed at  diff'erent  times  in  London,  England,, 
as  well  as  in  the  various  provincial  capi- 
tals concerned,  with  a  view  to  construc- 
tion being  started.  Until,  however,  the- 
pact  of  Confederation  had  been  sealed^ 
nothing  of  real  value  had  been  accom- 
plished, but  action  was  soon  to  follow, 
for  completion  of  the  line  was  a  plank  in 
the  Confederation  platform  of  the  East- 
ern or  Maritime  Provinces.  As  might  be 
expected,  more  or  less  diversity  of  opin- 
ion existed  concerning  method  and  cost 
of  operation.  The  final  surveys  were 
carried  out  by  Sandford  Fleming  (later 
Sir),  the  exact  route  fixed,  and  details  of 
construction  generally  determined. 

The  whole  line  from  Halifax  to  Levis, 
opposite  Quebec  City,  was  opened  to  traf- 
fic on  i'>oniinion  Day,  1876,  at  a  cost  to 
build  of  $22,488,000.  The  through  dis- 
tance was  675  miles.  In  1898,  as  already 
referred  to  in  the  data  covering  the 
Grand  Trunk  Railway  System,  legisla- 
tion was  enacted  and  arrangements 
made  whereby  continuitv  of  the  line  was 
maintained  as  far  ps  Montreal.  Great 
Britain  ws  orioinally  interested  in  the 
Intercolonial  because  of  its  convenience 
for  the  transportation  of  troops,  and 
later,  she  became  much  more  so  by  guar- 
anteeing construction  loans  of  some- 
thing like  $15,000,000,  partly,  it  is  autho-

— Sir  Sandford  Fleming  in  the  History

that  had  it  not  been  for  the  reckless  sur- 
render of  territory  by  the  Imperial  Gov- 
ernment under  the  Ashburton  Treaty,  the 
distance  to  cover  between  Montreal  and 
Halifax  would  have  been  less  by  200 
miles,  $10,000,000  of  expenditure  would 
liave  been  saved,  and  a  winter  port  on 
the  Atlantic  Coast  secured  to  the  Do- 
minion. 

I.C.R.  Growth  and  Progress 

As  showin.s:  the  growth  and  progress 
of  the  I.C.R.  since  its  completion  in  1876, 
it  may  be  stated  that  the  total  length  of 
road  operated  during  the  year  ended 
March  31st,  1916,  was  1518.39  miles,  as 
compared  with  675  miles  in  the  former 
year;  only  66.92  miles  are  double  track. 


however.  Passing  sidings  amount  to 
139.21  miles,  while  other  sidings  and 
spurs  total  387.43  miles.  The  total  capi- 
tal expenditure  on  behalf  of  the  Inter- 
colonial Railway  System  to  March  31st, 
1916,  amounts  to  $115,766,560.24.  At  the 
end  of  the  first  year's  operation  of  the 
road,  421,327  tons  of  freight  and  613,420 
passengers  were  carried,  while  for  the 
year  ended  March  31st,  1916,  the  figures 
are  5,447,220  and  4,124,387  respectively. 
Working  expenses  and  gross  earnings  of 
$1,661,673.55  and  $1,154,445.33  compare 
with  $12,551,495.84  and  $14,068,791.41  for 
the  respective  years. 

As  regards  rolling  stock,  it  will  have 
become  evident  from  the  figures  above 
quoted  that  a  corresponding  development 
both  as  to  quality  and  quantity  has  taken 
place  since  1876.  On  March  31st,  1916, 
the  equipment  consisted  of  434  locomo- 
tives, 66  sleeping  cars,  10  parlor  cars, 
21  dining  cars,  65  colonist  cars,  169  first

car,  making  a  total  of  566  passenger 
cars;  10,099  box  cars,  192  refrigerator 
cars,  3,239  platform  cars,  52  pulpwood 
cars,  55  oil  tank  cars,  640  hopper  cars,  5 
gondola  cars,  376  twenty-ton  coal  cars, 
526  Hart-Otis  steel  dump  cars,  185  stock 
cars,  300  Hart  convertible  dump  cars,  4 
pit  cars,  184  vans,  making  a  total  of  15,- 
863  freight  cars;  23  auxiliary  cars,  1 
store  supply  car,  2  Pintsch  gas  cars,  51 
common  snow  plows,  27  wing  snow  plows, 
2  steam  rotai-y  sno.w  plows,  2  double 
track  snow  plows,  1  double  end  snow 
plow,  54  flangers,  22  steam  cranes,  2 
Rogers  ballast  spreaders,  1  ballast  trim- 
mer, 5  centre  ballast  plows,  7  side  ballast 
plows,  4  ballast  plow  unloaders,  1  wing 
ballast  spreader,  4  concrete  mixers,  1 
sand  blast  machine,  1  well  boring  car,  1 
ditcher,  1  steam  derrick,  1  hand  derrick, 
4  steam  shovels,  1  portable  rail  sawing 
and  boring  machine,  2  pile  drivers,  16 
survey  and  inspection  cars,  2  rail  unload- 
ers, 71  wrecking  cars,  62  boarding  cars, 
making  a  total  of  378  work  cars. 

It  may  be  mentioned  at  this  point  that 
the  National  Transcontinental  Railway  is 
associated  with  the  Intercolonial  in  the 
official  statement  from  which  these  par- 
ticulars have  been  drawn.  Since  the  open- 
ing of  hostilities  in  Europe  three  years 
ago,  traffic  on  the  I.C.R.  has  assumed 
gigantic  proportions;  it,  therefore, 
speaks  well  for  the  physical  condition 
of  the  road  as  a  whole  that  so  much  has 
been  and  is  being  accomplished  with  a 
minimum  of  inconvenience  to  shippers. 

Large  locomotive  and  car  building 
shops  of  the  Canadian  Government  Rail- 
ways are  established  at  Transcona,  near 
Winnipeg;  St.  Malo,  near  Quebec  City; 
and  Moncton;  however,  only  the  latter  is 
engaged  on  railroad  work  on  a  capacity 
scale.  The  shops  at  St.  Malo  have  not 
been  completed,  although  it  is  under- 
stood that  much  of  the  equipment  is  on 
the  ground  and  some  of  it  is  installed. 
The  I.C.R.  shops  at  Moncton  are  well 
organized  to  secure  rapid  and  substan- 
tial outputs  of  both  new  and  repair 
work,  and  as  might  be  expected,  the  wel- 
fare schemes  in  operation  contribute  ma- 
terial to  that  end.  The  big  ocean 
terminals  being  constructed  at  Halifax, 
N.S.,  will  also  embrace  the  terminal  of 
the  Intercolonial  there,  when  completed. 

New  Brunswick  and  Prince  Edward 
Island  Railway 

Under  an  agreement  dated  March  18th, 
1915,  and  under  an  Order  in  Council  of 
May  12th,  1915.  this  railway  was  pur- 
chased for  $270,000,  becoming  thereafter 
a  part  of  the  Canadian  Government  Rail- 
way Svstem.  The  working  expenses  to 
March  31st,  1916,  amounted  to  $76,844.63 
and  the  gross  earnings  to  $50,414.34. 
During  the  year  ended  as  above,  $24,- 
999.97  was  exnended  to  bring  the  road  up 
to  the  standard  of  the  Intercolonial 
branch  lines.  The  rolling  stock  of  the 
N.B.  &  P.E.I.  Railwav  consists  of  the 
following: — 31  locomotives,  23  first-class 
passenger  cars,  13  second  class  passei.- 
ger  cars,  7  combination  second  class  and

ft.  6  in. 

International  Railway  of  New  Brunswick 

Under  an  agreement,  dated  August  1st, 

1914,  and  under  an  Order-in-Council  of 
August  27th,  1914,  a  lease  of  this  rail- 
road was  taken  by  the  Canadian  Govern- 
ment for  a  term  not  exceeding  five  years 
at  an  annual  rental  of  $90,000,  payable 
half  yearly,  with  option  of  purchase  at 
any  time  within  that  period  for  the  sum 
of  $2,700,000.  The  road  was  taken  over 
as  part  of  the  C.G.R.  System  on  August 
1st,  1914.  It  is  111.30"  miles  in  length, 
extending  from  the  Intercolonial  at 
Campbellton,  N.B.,  to  St.  Leonards,  N.B. 
During  the  fiscal  year  ended  March  31st, 
1916,  there  was  expended  on  capital  ac- 
count the  sum  of  $2,637.47  to  bring  the 
road  up  to  the  I.C.R.  standard  for  branch 
lines.  The  working  expenses  for  the 
period  amounted  to  $116,651.38,  and  the 
gross  earnings  to  $104,623.49,  leaving  a 

.deficit  of  $12,027.89.  In  addition  to  the 
working  expenses,  the  sum  of  $90,000 
was  paid  as  rental. 

St.  John  and  Quebec  Railway 

By  Act  of  Parliament  of  date  March 
5th,  1912,  agreement  was  made  on  behalf 
of  the  Dominion  and  the  Province  of  New 
Brunswick,  and  the  St.  John  and  Quebec 
Railway  Co.,  for  leasing  to  the  first- 
named  the  company's  railway  when  fully 
constructed  from  the  City  of  St.  John, 
N.B.,  to  a  point  of  connection  with  the 
National  Transcontinental  Railway  at  or 
near  the  town  of  Grand  Falls,  N.B.  The 
agreement  provided  that  the  railway 
should  be  completed  and  equipped  by  No- 
vember 1st,  1915;  further,  that  on  con- 
struction and  equipment  of  certain  sec- 
tions the  Dominion  Government  would 
lease  and  operate  same.  The  road  extends 
from  Centreville  to  Gagetown,  119.87 
miles.  The  portion  from  Centreville  to 
Fredericton  was  taken  over  for  operation 
by  the   C.  G.   Railways  on  January  1st, 

1915,  and  the  portion  from  Fredericton  to 
Gagetown  on  March  2nd,  1915.  The 
working  expenses  for  the  fiscal  year  end- 
ed March  31st,  1916,  amounted  to  $90,- 
757.13,  and  the  gross  earnings  to  $57,- 
742.71,  leaving  a  deficit  of  $33,014.42. 

Hudson  Bay  Railway 

This  railway  will  run  from  The  Pas. 
Province  of  Manitoba — a  point  on  the 
Saskatchewan  River,  where  connection  is 
-made  with  the  Canadian  Northern  Rail- 
way System — to  Port  Nelson,  on  the 
western  shores  of  Hudson  Bay.  The  work 
of  construction  for  the  first  185  miles 
from  The  Pas  to  Thicket  Portage  was 
placed  under  contract  in  August,  1911.  A 
contract  for  a  further  distance  of  68 
miles  from  Thicket  Portage  to  Split  Lake 
.Junction  was  let  on  September  20th, 
1912,  and  a  third  contract,  covering  the 
distance,     165     miles,    from    Split   Lake 


Junction  to  Port  Nelson,  on  December 
17th,  1912,  a  total  distance  of  418  miles. 
The  final  location  into  Port  Nelson  was 
completed  in  August,  1914,  making  the 
total  length  of  the  line  from  The  Pas  to 
Port  Nelson  424  miles.  By  the  end  of  the 
fiscal  year,  March  31st,  1916,  grading 
had  been  completed  to  mile  378,  or  within 
47  miles  of  Port  l^elson;  the  track  had 
been  laid  and  the  telegraph  line  built  up 
to  mile  241,  the  first  crossing  of  the  Nel- 
son River,  Manitou  Rapids.  The  canti- 
lever bridge  at  this  point  has  a  total 
length  of  608  feet,  and  is  to  all  intents 
and  purposes  finished.  The  right  of  way 
has  been  cleared  to  mile  395.  The  work 
of  constructing  the  terminals  for  the 
railway  at  Port  Nelson  has  been  carried 
on  by  the  Dominion  Department  of  Rail- 
ways and  Canals  with  a  force  of  men 
under  a  supervising  engineer.  The  con- 
struction of  the  permanent  deep  water 
works,  giving  connection  between  the 
mainland  and  deep  water  by  a  system  of 
steel  bridges — 17  spans — has  made  good 
progress.  Communication  with  Poi't 
Nelson  is  afforded  by  means  of  Marconi 
wireless  stations  established  there  and 
at  The  Pas.  The  expenditure  for  the 
fiscal  year  ended  March  31st,  1916,  was 
$4,889,131.77,  making  the  total  expendi- 
ture up  to  that  date,  $15,749,908.43. 

National  Transcontinental  Railway 

Under  an  agreement,  dated  July  29th, 
1903,  and  a  modifying  agreement  of  date 
February  18th,  1904,  the  Grand  Trunk 
Pacific  Railway  Co.  have  undertaken  cer- 
tain obligations  with  respect  to  the  con- 
struction and  operation  of  a  line  of  rail- 
way, wholly  upon  Canadian  territory,  be- 
tween the  City  of  Moncton,  N.B.,  and  the 
navigable  waters  of  the  Pacific  Ocean. 
The  railway  is  composed  of  two  divi- 
sions, namely,  the  Eastern  Division,  be- 
tween Moncton  and  Quebec  City;  thence 
westerly  through  the  northern  part  of 
the  Provinces  of  Quebec  and  Ontario, 
and  in  the  Province  of  Manitoba,  to  the 
City  of  Winnipeg;  the  Western  Division 
being  between  Winnipeg  and  the  Pacific 
Ocean.  The  Eastern  Division  is  being 
constructed  by  the  Government,  and  on 
completion  is  to  be  leased  to,  and  be 
maintained  and  operated  by  the  G.T.P. 
who  undertake  to  construct  at  their  own 
cost,  and  maintain  and  operate  the  West- 
ern Division. 

The  lease  of  the  Eastern  Division  is 
for  a  period  of  50  years  at  a  rental  of  3 
per  cent,  per  annum  on  the  cost  of  its 
construction,  the  first  seven  years  of  the 
term  to  be  free  of  rent.  Both  divisions 
when  completed  are  to  be  equipped  with 
ample  and  modern  rolling  stock  by  the 
G.T.P.,  the  initial  equipment  to  have  a 
value  of  not  less  than  $20,000,000.  By 
way  of  assistance  to  the  G.T.P.  in  the 
construction  of  the  Western  Division,  it 
is  provided  that  the  Canadian  Govern- 
ment shall  guarantee  payment  of  the 
principal  and  interest  of  an  issue  of 
bonds  of  the  company  for  an  amount  suf- 
ficient to  produce  a  sum  equal  to  75  per 
cent,  of  the  construction  cost,  but  not  ti 
exceed  $13,000  per  mile  in  respect  of  tha 
prairie  section  from  Winnipeg  to  the 
Eastern  limit  of  the  Rocky  Mountains. 
This   limit  has  been   established   as   the 


east  bank  of  Wolf  Creek,  a  point  120 
miles  west  from  Edmonton,  Alta. 

The  total  mileage  from  Moncton,  N.B., 
to  the  west  side  of  Water  Street,  Winni- 
neg,  is  1,804.52  miles;  this,  however,  in- 
cludes the  Quebec  Bridge  aci-oss  the  St. 
Lawrence,  now  in  course  of  completion, 
the  length  of  which  is  1.10  miles.  Track 
laying  between  Moncton  and  Winnipeg 
was  completed — with  the  exception  of 
the  Quebec  Bridge — in  November,  1913, 
the  last  spike  being  driven  on  the  17th 
of  that  month.  Pending  the  completion 
of  the  Quebec  Bridge,  communication 
across  the  St.  Lawrence  River  is  had  by 
means  of  the  train  ferry  Leonard.  The 
total  expenditures  on  behalf  of  the  Can- 
adian Government  up  to  March  31st, 
1916,  amount  to  $156,701,209.65,  which 
sum  includes  $36,182.91  for  operation  in 
the  year  1912-1913  of  the  section  from 
Moncton  to  Edmunston,  N.B. 

The  Western  Division  extends  from  the 
western  boundary  of  the  Winnipeg  ter- 
minals, on  the  east  bank  of  the  Assini- 
boine  River,  in  the  City  of  Winnipeg,  to 
the  City  of  Prince  Rupert  on  the  Pacific 
Coast,  a  distance  of  1,745  miles.  It  is  di- 
vided into  two  sections,  namely,  the 
Prairie  Section,  extending  from  Winnipeg 
to  the  east  bank  of  Wolf  Creek,  a  dis- 
tance of  915  miles,  and  the  Mountain  Sec- 
tion, which  extends  from  the  east  bank 
of  Wolf  Creek  to  Prince  Rupert,  a  dis- 
tance of  830  miles.  The  terminals  extend 
for  a  further  distance  of  SH  miles  around 
the  water  front  of  the  City  of  Prince 
Rupert.  The  position  of  the  work  in  the 
Western  Division  at  March  31st,  1916,  as 
deduced  from  the  report  of  the  chief  en- 
gineer acting  for  the  Government,  ap- 
pears to  be  as  follows: — ■ 

"In  order  to  carry  out  the  contract  re- 
quirements, work  to  the  estimated  value 
of  $2,372,500,  covering  the  making  up  of 
embankments,  ballasting,  passenger  sta- 
tion and  yard  at  Edmonton,  and  erection 
of  permanent  structures  on  the  first  280 
miles  west  of  Winnipeg,  still  remained  to 
be  done  at  the  close  of  the  fiscal  year. 
Work  remaining  to  he  done  on  the  Moun- 
tain Section  includes  the  filling  in  of 
temporary  trestles,  cei-tain  ballasting, 
roundhouses,  machine  shops,  completion 
of  divisional  sections,  and  further  facili- 
ties at  Prince  Rupert  terminals."  The 
estimated  cost  to  complete  the  foregoing, 
after  making  certain  allowances,  was  $3,- 
785.270.  The  approved  and  certified  ex- 
penditure up  to  March  31st.  1916, 
amounted  on  the  Mountain  Section  to 
$93,160,195.76,  of  which  the  amount  paid 
to  the  G.T.P.  was  $70,769,300.85,  includ- 
ing interest.  On  the  Prairie  Section  no 
certificate  had  been  issued  since  October 
31st,  1907,  the  expenditure  to  that  date 
being  $15,556,482.84.  of  which  the  per- 
centage payable  was  $10,335,482.92.  The 
whole  division  between  Winnipeg  and 
Prince  Rupert  has  been  operated  since 
September  6th,  1914. 

Quebec  Bridge  Feature  of  the  N.T.R. 

On  August  29th.  1907,  the  cantilever 
bridge  across  the  St.  Lawrence  River, 
above  the  City  of  Quebec,  and  forming  a 
connecting  link  on  the  National  Trans- 
continental Railway,  collapsed.  The  en- 
terprise  of   construction    was   a   privatfr

one;  however,  the  Government  had  pro- 
vided for  the  right  of  assuming  the  un- 
dertaking, which  they  did  on  December 
1st,  1908.  The  deed  of  assignment  and 
transfer  from  the  construction  com- 
pany to  the  Government  was  of  date 
October  18th,  1909.  A  Board  of  three 
engineers  was  constituted  to  prepare  a 
new  design  and  specification  for  the  re- 
construction of  the  bridge,  with  power  to 
call  in  expert  advice  if  necessary. 

A  design  other  than  that  prepared  by 
the  engineers  was  sent  in  by  the  St. 
Lawrence  Bridge  Co. — with  whom  were 
associated  the  Dominion  Bridge  Co.  and 
the  Canadian  Bridge  Co.,  both  Canadian 
enterprises.  Same  was  accepted  By  the 
Board  of  Engineers  because  of  its  fea- 
tures of  strength,  simplification  of  erec- 
tion, economical  distribution  of  material, 
general  appearance,  etc.  The  contract 
price  was  in  the  neighborhood  of  $8,G50,- 
000,  and  completion  is  expected  in  the 
course  of  the  present  year,  there  being 
only  the  centre  span  to  put  together  and 
lift  to  place.  It  is,  of  course,  well  known 
that  accomplishment  had  reached  a  sim- 
ilar stage  a  year  ago,  completion  then  be- 
ing frustrated  by  an  unforeseen  even- 
tuality which  resulted  in  the  centre  span 
being  lost  in  the  river. 

The  bridge  will  have  a  total  length  of 
3,228  feet,  or  about  three-fifths  of  a  mile. 
The  centre  span  is  about  1,800  feet  long, 
its  suspended  portion  being  around  640 
feet.  This  span  will,  for  a  length  of  760 
feet  over  the  river,  have  a  height  of  150 
feet  between  its  lower  members  and 
high  water.  The  two  cantilevers  are  each 
.580  feet  long,  and  the  width  of  the  bridge 
between  the  trusses  is  88  feet,  compris- 
ing a  double  track  railway  and  two  side- 
walks for  foot  passengers.

GRAND   TRUNK    PACIFIC   RAILWAY 
COMPANY 

THIS  has  already  been  noted  in  con- 
nection with  the  National  Trans- 
continental Railway;  however,  it 
may  not  be  out  of  place  to  give  the 
G.  T.  P.  view  of  the  undertaking.  The 
country  through  which  the  Prairie  Sec- 
tion of  the  railway  passes  contains  land 
now  known  to  be  well  adapted  for  the 
growing  of  wheat;  in  other  words,  it  is 
the  great  agricultural  belt  of  the  Can- 
adian North-West.  This  land,  now  being 
settled,  produces  rich  crops  the  first  year 
of  cultivation.  The  Mountain  Section, 
passing  through  the  mineral  deposits  will 
take  a  little  longer  to  develop.  One  of 
the  important  questions  to  be  considered 
was  that  respecting  the  gradients  which 
enter  so  largely  into  economical  opera- 
tion, hence  the  selection  of  the  Yellow 
Head  Pass  route  through  the  Rockies  to 
the  Pacific  Coast. 

The  Mountain  Section  lies  between  the 
52nd  and  .57th  parallels  of  latitude,  and 
it  is  probable  that  no  other  area  in  North 
America  can  equal  this  portion  of  British 
Columbia  in  natural  resources.  Where 
there  is  no  agriculture  and  pasture,  there 
is  m.ining  or  lumbering  to  be  developed, 
and  where  none  of  these  are  in  evidence, 
although  thev  often  occur  in  one  district, 
there  is  at  least  trapping  and  hunting. 
Coincident  with  the  selection  of  the  route 
through  the  Rockies  to  the  Pacific  Coast 


was  the  location  of  the  terminus.  The 
point  selected,  namely,  Prince  Rupert,  is 
situated  within  50  miles  of  the  Southern 
extremity  of  Alaska,  and  is  reached  from 
the  Pacific  Ocean  via  Dixon  Entrance  and 
Brown  Passage.  Prince  Rupert  harbor 
possesses  some  of  the  greatest  advan- 
tages to  ocean  shipping  that  can  be  found 
along  the  whole  Pacific  Coast.  It  has  a 
direct  channel  passage  leading  into  it  of 
more  than  half  a  mile  in  width,  and  is 
sufficient  in  extent  to  accommodate  ship- 
ping in  large  volume  and  vessels  of  the 
biggest  tonnage. 

Prince  Rupert  Terminal 

The  site  of  Prince  Rupert  is  a  pic- 
turesque one.  The  land  slopes  back 
gently  for  distances  ranging  from  half  a 
mile  to  two  or  three  miles.  Here  and 
there  the  ground  rises  abruptly,  provid- 
ing the  necessary  fall  for  drainage  and 
sewerage,  while  a  shore  line  five  or  six 
miles  in  extent  sweeps  around  the  front 
of  the  city.  The  view  from  these  elevated 
stations  and  from  the  back  is  a  charming 
one.  On  the  opposite  shore  mountains 
slope  down  to  the  water.  To  the  north- 
west, through  a  channel  studded  with 
islands,  is  situated  the  famous  Indian 
village  of  Metlakatla,  known  on  the  co.ist 
as  the  "Holy  City." 

Prince  Rupert  is  situated  about  550 
miles  north  of  Vancouver.  The  new 
Transcontinental  Railway  will  possess 
the  shortest  route  from  Liverpool  to 
Asiatic  ports  by  at  least  two  days'  sail, 
and  this  saving  in  distance  will  also  be 
realized  between  American  Atlantic  ports 
and  Trans-Pacific  points.  It  lies  in  the 
centre  of  the  salmon  fishing  industry  of 
British  Columbia,  being  in  the  immediate 
vicinity  of  a  large  number  of  canneries 
which  ship  their  product  throughout  the 
wo-ld.  and  here  is  ?ho  to  be  found- .off 
the  banks  of  Queen  Charlotte  Islands  the 
finest  halibut  fishing  known  to  exist,  tons 
of  which  are  taken  annually  to  sut)ply 
Eastern  markets.  This  traffic  will  be 
greatly  augmented  upon  the  completion 
of  transportation  facilities. 

Regarding  progress  at  Prince  Rupert, 
plans  were  prepared  and  approved  by 
the  Grand  Trunk  Pacific  Development 
Co.  and  the  British  Columbia  Govern- 
ment (the  former  having  a  three-quarter 
'"tp'p=*^  for  the  '^■■^'-  sub-division  of  two' 
thousand  acres  of  the  townsite,  and  the 
first  sale  of  lots  was  held  by  auction  at 
Vancouver,  B.C.,  May  25th  to  29th,  1910 
following  which,  sales  were  also  held  at 
Victoria  and  Prince  Rupert. 

Extraordinary  interest  is  manifested 
in  this  new  Canadian  seaport  on  the  Paci- 
fic Ocean,  as  it  is  destined  to  very  early 
develop  into  a  large  and  imoortant  centre 
of  industrial  and  commercial  activity,  af- 
fording exceptional  opportunities  for  the 
investment  of  capital,  the  present  de- 
velopment of  the  townsite  itself,  apart 
from  expenditures  on  the  construction  of 
the  railway,  already  representing  an  in- 
vestment of  several  millions  of  dollars. 

On  June,  1910,  the  Grand  Trunk  Pacific 
Coast  Steamship  Co.  inaugurated  a 
steamship  service  between  Seattle,  Vic- 
toria, Vancouver  and  Prince  Rupert,  plac- 
ing in  commission  the  palatial  twin  screw 
steamers    "Prince    Rupert"    and    "Prince 


George,"  which  had  just  been  completed 
at  the  shipyards'  of  Messrs.  Swan,  Hun- 
ter &  Wigham  Richardson,  Ltd.,  at  New- 
castle-on-Tyne,  England.  This,  in  addi- 
tion to  several  other  lines  of  steamers 
operating  between  Victoria,  Vancouver 
and  Prince  Rupert,  and  points  in  Alaska, 
places  the  new  Pacific  Coast  terminal  in 
an  exceptionally  accessible  position  on 
the  lines  of  the  most  modern  water  trans- 
portation, pending  and  following  com- 
pletion of  the  railway.

WILL  DEVELOP  CHEMICAL  AND 
DYE  INDUSTRIES 

EXPERTS  state  that  it  will  require  al- 
most super-human  efforts  to  establish 
dyemaking  as  a  Canadian  industry,  but 
such  a  task  will  eventually  be  accom- 
plished. The  enormous  expenditure  en- 
tailed in  the  erection  of  immense  plants 
required  for  the  industry  is  causing 
would-be  investors  to  hesitate  before 
making  the  plunge;  but  ?s  soon  as 
Canada  can  provide  a  market  that  would 
warrant  the  investment  the  enterprise 
will  be  taken  up  with  a  view  to  per- 
manently ousting  the  German  material 
from  the  Canadian  field. 

It  is  pointed  out  that  chemical  indus- 
try as  a  whole  is  very  busy,  although 
prices  have  risen  enormously  during  the 
past  two  years;  in  some  cases  over  1,000 
per  cent.  The  demand  is  increasing, 
but  it  is  very  difficult  to  get  supplies. 
The  difficulty  confronting  the  manufac- 
turing chemists  is  that  no  business  is 
being  done,  except  for  .spot  lots.  The 
consumers  will  not  trade  in  futures. 
Taking  it  on  the  whole,  the  Canadian 
wholesale  chemical  business,  while  ac- 
tive, is  virtually  on  an  auction  basis. 

The  war  work  of  the  United  States 
has  created  a  shortage  for  the  domes- 
tic trade  of  sulphuric,  nitric  and  other 
acids  used  for  munitions,  and  until  larg- 
er quantities  can  be  produced  the  price 
will   remain   abnormal. 

Through  the  efforts  of  Canadian 
chemists,  many  high  explosives  are  now 
being  made  in  Canada,  and  shells  "can 
be  completed  on  this  side  of  the  Atlan- 
tic for  use  in  the  war  zone.  Tor  n:any 
months  after  Canada  had  "one  in'o  the 
munition  business,  only  the  steel  and 
fuse  portions  of  the  shells  could  be 
made,  and  the  muni+ions  had  to  be  ship- 
ped across  the  border  or  to  Great  Bri- 
tain to  be   completed. 

The  efforts  of  the  various  chemicTl 
interests  to  permanently  establish  com- 
plete chemical  and  dye  industries  in 
Canada,  have  resulted  in  the  comfcina- 
tion  of  the  interests  concerned,  who 
have  held  meetings  to  endorse  the  plan 
advocated  and  inaugurate  an  institution 
in  Canada  which  will  virtually  dupli- 
cate the  work  of  the  Mellon  Institute  of 
Chicago.  This  institute  takes  up  indus- 
trial problems  and  endeavors  to  solve 
them  in  the  interests  of  the  industries 
concerned.  The  valmble  results  obtain- 
ed by  this  institution  has  bron"-ht  up  thp 
need  of  a  similar  organization  in  this 
country.

The  constitution  of  industrial  enterprise  is  largely  depart-

WILLIAM   RODGER 

AT  no  time  in  the  world's  history 
has  the  need  of  engineers  of  re- 
source and  ability  been  so  em- 
phasized as  now,  when  the  revolutionary 
yet  enlightening  discoveries  and  applica- 
tions of  science  and  engineering  are  all 
essential  factors  in  the  problems  of  the 
moment,  namely,  the  development  of 
latent  forces  tliat  have  remained  so  long 
dormant,  and  their  utilization.  What 
Canada  has  achieved  during  the  past 
three  years  despite  almost  overwhelm- 
ing difficulties  and  erstwhile  obstacles, 
savors  in  some  de^Tee  of  the  miraculous. 
The  subject  of  this  sketch,  William 
Rodger,  designing  and  constructing  engi- 
neer for  Fraser  Brace  &  Co.,  also  act- 
ing in  the  same  capacity  for  the  St. 
Maurice  Construction  Co.,  both  of  Mon- 
treal, has  been  one  of  Canada's  indus- 
trial "spo'kes'  in  the  past  three  years 
of  rolling  progress.  Bom  of  Scotch 
parents  in  the  town  of  Pollokshaws,  Ren- 
frewshire, Scotland,  a  few  miles  south 
of  the  city  of  Glasgow,  the  boy  secured 
liis  early  education  in  the  Calder  Street 
Public  School  at  Govanhill,  another  sub- 
urb of  Glasgow.  At  the  age  of  1.3,  short- 
ly after  he  completed  his  public  school 
course,  he  entered  th°  employ  of  Messrs. 
Dubs  &  Co..  Glasgow  Locomotive  Works, 
where  he  acouired  a  thorough  know- 
ledge in  the  design  and  construction  of 
locomotives,  serving  a  seven  years  ap- 
prenticeship, much  of  the  time  bein<? 
spent  in  the  drawing  office.  During  this 
preparatory  course  and  for  some  time 
afterwards.  William  endeavored  to  at- 
tain those  theoretical  fundamentals  that 
are  essential  to  success  in  every  branch 
of  engineering  practice.  During  the  sea- 
son of  1893-4,  he  was  a  student  in  the 
junior  mathematical  class  at  the  even- 
ing classes  of  the  Abbo*^sford  Public 
School.  In  September  of  1896  he  at- 
tended Andersons  College  evening  class- 
es, where  he  obtained  a  certificate  from 
the  Department  of  Science  and  Art, 
South  Kensinp^on.  in  the  e'emen^ary 
stage  of  Applied  Mechanics,  also  one  in 
srteam   from   Professor  Rowden.     In  the 


Fall  of  1904  he  attended  the  Glasgow 
and  West  of  Scotland  Technical  Col- 
lege, under  Professor  Magnus  MacLean, 
completing  the  term  as  a  certified  gra- 
duate in  the  first  course  of  Electrical 
Engineering.  In  1910  he  received  a  cer- 
tificate for  course  I  in  Mathematics,  gra- 
duating the  same  year  in  the  advanced 


WILLI.^M    RODGER. 

course    of     Mechanics     and     Theory     of 
Structures. 

At  the  age  of  21,  while  still  working 
for  Dubs  &  Co.,  he  was  entrusted  with 
the  designing  and  draughting  of  the 
plans  for  engines  at  the  works  of  the 
Highland  Railway,  Inverness;  these  en- 
gines being  afterwards  built  by  Dubs  & 
Co.  In  1898,  at  the  age  of  23,  he  ac- 
cepted a  position  as  chief  draughtsman 
with  Neilson,  Reid  &  Co.,  Hyde  Park 
Locomotive  Works,  Glagow.  In  addi- 
tion to  his  drawing  room  duties,  he  was 
occasionally  delegated  as  inspector  of 
materials  received  and  products  deliver- 


ed by  the  firm.  After  remaining  with 
this  firm  for  a  period  of  ten  years  he 
went  into  partnership  with  Ronger  & 
Harr.'s,  electrical  engineers,  but  owing 
to  the  depression  of  trade  at  that  time, 
the  business  was  given  up  and  our 
"Spoke"  accepted  a  position  as  engineer 
with  Telford,  Grier  &  Mackay,  install- 
ing ammonia  machines  for  creameries. 
From  June  1909  until  the  spri.ig  of 
1911,  he  was  employed  as  a  steam  ex- 
pert at  the  Singer  Sewing  Machine  Co. 
factory  at   Clyde   bank. 

On  the  6th  of  April  1911,  he  left  the 
Land  of  the  Heather  to  try  his  fortune 
in  that  of  the  Maple,  leaving  Liverpool 
on  the  Cunard  steamer  Lusitania  and 
landing  in  New  York  on  the  13th  of 
the  month.  The  particular  date  of  his 
arrival  in  a  new  land  had  no  supersti- 
tious influence  on  our  "Spoke,"  and  af- 
ter a  few  days  of  sight  seeing,  he  re- 
sumed his  journey  to  the  Canadian  Me- 
tropolis. The  day  following  his  arrival 
in  Montreal,  he  started  work  with  the 
Canadian  Pacific  Railway  at  their  Angus 
shops  as  locomotive  and  later  as  elevat- 
ing draughtsman.  While  in  this  posi- 
tion he  had  the  privilege  of  making  the 
plans  for  the  observation  cars  Laggan 
and  Louise. 

The  abnormal  activities  however,  that 
immediately  followed  the  outbreak  of 
the  war,  provided  additional  opportunity 
for  our  "Spoke"  to  acquire  that  wider 
experience  that  is  often  thrust  upon  us 
in  periods  of  extremity.  With  the  C. 
P.  R.  actively  engaged  in  furthering  the 
best  interests  of  the  country,  and  their 
ready  response  to  the  urgent  call  for 
duty,  Mr.  Rodger  was  called  upon  to  as- 
sist in  the  design  and  construction  of 
special  hydraulic  presses  for  the  manu- 
facture of  shells  and  cartridge  caes.  In 
September  191.5,  he  accepted  a  position 
with  the  Dominion  Bridge  Co.  as  me- 
chanical draughtsman,  and  assisted  in 
laving  out  the  plant  of  the  Dominion 
Copper  Products  Co.  In  December  of 
the  same  year,  he  was  appointed  chief 
of  the  engineering  department  of  the 
.Tenckes  Machine  Co.  of  Sherbrooke.  P. 
O.,  continuing  with  this  firm  until  the 
soring  of  this  year,  when  he  accented 
h!s  present  position  with  Fraser  Brace 
&  Co. 

Mr.  Rodger's  wife  is  a  daughter  of 
Joseph  Carruthers,  a  printer  of  Glas- 
gow, and  they  with  their  two  children, 
a  son  and  daughter,  reside  at  107  Gir- 
ouard  Ave.,  Notre  Dame  de  Grace.  •  Like 
all  good  Scotch  folk,  they  are  affiliated 
with  the  Presbyterian  Church,  our 
"Spoke"  having  been  one  of  the  manag- 
ers of  Fairmount  until  leaving  for  Sher- 
brooke. His  travels  have  been  largely 
confined  to  business  activity,  but  in  1914 
the  family  paid  h  visit  to  the  old  home, 
returning  during  the  stormy  days  of 
the  opening  session  of  the  war.  He  is 
an  Associate  Member  of  the  Canadian 
Society  of  Civil  Engineers,  and  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Montreal  branch  of  the  Can- 
adian Railway  Club.  He  is  also  affili- 
ated with  the  A.  F.  and  A.  M.,  being  a 
member   of    Fairmount    Chapter.       Both

he  and  his  wife  are  members  of  the  East- 
em  Star. 

Speaking  of  his  experience,  Mr.  Rod- 
ger says: — "Technical  education  must  go 
hand  in  hand  with  practical  experience 
in  order  to  attain  a  reasonable  degree 
of  success  in  any  vocational  calling,  and 
this  is  particularly  true  in  science  and 
engineering  owing  to  the  rapid  strides 
that  are  continually  taking  place  in 
these  directions.  Conscientious  study 
and  hard  work  are  the  essentials  of  suc- 
cess, and  close  application  to  details 
and  a  thorough  knowledge  of  what  is  do- 
ing in  other  sections  of  the  engineering 
field  will  make  good  engineers  of  wil- 
ling studeni^s.  In  order  to  keep  in  close 
touch  with  general  practice  it  is  im- 
perative that  the  other  fellow's  point 
of  view  should  not  be  allowed  to  slip 
past  unnoticed.  I  heartily  approve  of 
the  reading  of  technical  papers  and 
make  it  my  duty  to  enlighten  those  un- 
der me  to  carefully  study  same."

MACHINISTS'  INSTRUCTION 
COURSE   XXIII. 

By  J.  Davies. 

IN  cutting  spirals  on  a  milling  ma- 
chine, the  work  is  usually  held  be- 
tween centres.  There  are  two  dis- 
tinct and  separate  motions  imparted  to 
the  work.  A  rotary  motion  of  the  head 
combined  with  a  longitudinal  motion  of 
the  table.  These  motions  must  maintain 
the  same  constant  relation  to  each  other. 
The  table  travels  by  means  of  a  feed 
screw.  On  the  end  of  the  feed  screw  is 
a  gear  which  is  connected  by  other  gears 
to  the  index  spindle.  It  is  evident  that  by 
this  arrangement  any  motion  of  the  feed 
screw  will  cause  the  table  to  go  back- 
wards or  forwards  and  at  the  same  time 
cause  the  index  spindle  to  rotate,  so  that 
the  pitch  of  the  spiral  depends  entirely 
upon  the  ratio  these  two  motions  bear  to 
each  other. 
Calculating  Gears  for  Cutting  Spirals 

Before  attempting  to  make  any  calcu- 
lations there  are  two  indispensable  fac- 
tors which  we  must  find  out — (1)  The 
pitch  of  the  feed  screw;  (2)  the  number 
of  complete  revolutions  the  worm  spin- 
dle must  make  to  turn  the  head,  or  the 
work,  once  round.  Obtain  this  by  actual 
count  of  the  worm  spindle  connecting  the 
index  head,  then  measure  the  feed  screw, 
checking  up  the  measurement  by  making 
one  revolution  of  same  and  measuring 
the  advance  of  the  table.  If  this  pre- 
caution is  not  taken  the  operator  m.:iy 
be  misled  by  measuring  a  thread  with 
two  starts  or  a  compound  thread. 

Having  once  obtained  these  figures 
they  will  be  used  in  every  calculation 
for  the  same  machine.  We  will  take  the 
figures  that  are  common  on  most  milling 
machines.  Suppose  the  feed  screw  is  4 
threads  to  the  inch  and  the  worm  shaf^ 
makes  40  turns  to  one  of  the  spindle 
carrying  the  work,  then  it  is  evident 
that  if  they  were  geared  together  by 
equal  gears,  they  would  each  make  a  re- 
volution in  the  same  time.  Since  it  would 
take  40  revolutions  of  worm  spindle  to 
revolve   the   work   once,:  it   follows' that 


the  feed  screw  would  also  make  40  revo- 
lutions in  the  same  time,  and  as  the  feed 
screw  is  %  in.  pitch,  the  table  would  be 
advanced  40  times  Vi,  or  10  in.  Under 
these  conditions,  the  spiral  that  would 
be  cut  would  have  a  lead  or  pitch  of  10 
in.  From  this  explanation,  the  following 
simple  universal  rule  can  be  deduced.  To 
obtain  gears  required,  multiply  lead  in 
inches  of  spiral  to  be  cut,  by  the  num- 
ber of  threads  per  inch  of  the  feed  screw 
(in  this  case  43),  and  divide  by  40.  Note 
that  in  calculations  for  the  same  mach- 
ines, the  same  figures  are  used  every 
time.  The  4  represents  the  num- 
ber of  threads  per  inch  of  the  feed  screw, 
and  the  40  represents  the  num- 
ber of  turns  of  worm  spindle  to  turn  the 
work  round  once. 

To  prove  example  just  mentioned: — 
What  gears  would  be  required  to  cut  a 
spiral  with  a  10-in.  lead?     Applying  rule

Example  2 — It  is  required  to  cut  a 
spiral  having  a  lead  of  21/2  in.  with  a  ma- 
chine having  a  feed  screw  4  thrds.  per  in. 
and  requiring  40  revolutions  of  the  worm 
shaft  for  one  turn  of  the  work.

and  any  two  gears  having  this  ratio  or

Use  of  Compound  Gears 

Milling  machines  are  usually  made  so 
that  compound  gears  may  be  used  if  ne- 
cessary.    For  example — It  is  required  to 
cut  a  spiral  having  a  lead  of  15%  in.

we  must  raise  the  value.  We  can  mul-

Sometimes  it  is  impossible  to  cut  the 
exact  spiral  required  by  the  gears  avail- 
able; when  this  is  the  case,  either  a  spe- 
cial gear  must  be  made,  or  come  as  close 
as  you  can  with  the  gears  you  have.  Here 
is  a  case  in  point:  It  is  required  to  cut  a

the  set,  and  substituting  for  the  fourth 
one  a  gear  with  a  tooth,  more  or  less,  a 
very  close  approximation  to  the  required

ample just  given  we  substitute  a  54-gear 
in  place  of  the  53,  what  actual  spiral 
would  be  cut?  Proceeding  as  per  rule

Grinding    and    Setting    Lathe    and    Planer    Cutting    Tools 

Staff  Article 

Two  of  the  prime  essentials,  if  not  the  all-important  factors  in  general  machine  shop 
practice,  and  those  tlmt  are  left  entirely  to  the  judgment  of  the  individual  operator,  more 
particularhj  in  the  smaller  shops,  are  the  grinding  of  the  various  cutting  tools  and  the  setting 
of  same  in  their  respective  positions.  Tfie  ejficiency  of  numerous  plants  is  serioushj  ham- 
pered by  the  lack  of  knowledge  on  the  part  of  many  operators  of  the  elementary  require- 
ments pertaining  to  their  own  work.  Lubricating  or  cutting  compounds  are  undoubtedly 
a  great  aid  in  the  removal  of  metal,  but  the  agents  that  perform  the  actual  work,  should 
receive  every  attention  before  their  faults  are  covered  with  a  flow  of  cooling  fluid. 


THE  primary  object  of  all  steel  cut- 
ting tools  is  the  removal  of  metal 
from  castings  or  forgings,  and  of 
necessity  they  are  of  much  harder  ma- 
terial than  that  of  metal  upon  which 
they  operate.  It  often  supposed  that  or- 
dinary lathe  or  planer  tools  accomplish 
their  purpose  by  shearing  action,  but 
certain  factors  in  the  removal  of  the 
metal  are  very  similar,  the  actual  condi- 


theory  could  be  taken  with  the  same  con- 
sumption of  power,  as  the  shearing  re- 
sistance is  practically  the  same  along 
the  lines  C-D  and  E-F.  We  know  how- 
ever, that  much  more  power  is  required 
to  perform  the  heavier  cut.  The  feature 
that  dispels  the  shearing  idea  is  the 
fact  that  the  work  itself  occupies  the 
position  and  is  supposed  to  perform  the 
function  of  the  upper  shear  blade,  shown 


ing  the  chip,  following  the  separation  of 
the  molecules  from  each   other. 

Separation  of  the  Chip 

With  the  exception  of  the  very  light- 
est of  cuts  it  may  be  reasonably  accepted 
that  the  extreme  edge  of  the  cutting  tool 
does  not  perform  the  function  of  actually 
"cutting"  the  metal,  as  the  wedge  shape 
of  the  tool   is  the   chief  feature   in   the 


FIG.  2. 


tions  are  widely  different.  This  is  more 
clearly  indicated  by  referring  to  Fig.  1. 
The  sketch  to  the  left  illustrates  the 
method  of  shearing  metal,  the  stock  be- 
ing severed  by  means  of  two  blades,  the 
cutting  faces  of  which  are  in  line  with 
each  other.  In  the  ordinary  power  shear 
the  lower  of  these  two  blades  is  sta- 
tionary, while  the  upper  travels  in  a 
vertical  direction;  the  cutting  edge  of 
the  blade  being  set  at  an  angle  to  the 
one  on  the  fixed  table.  In  the  case  of 
a  punch  and  die,  the  two  cutting  edges 
are  often  left  parallel  to  each  other,  but 
"shear"  may  be  given  to  one  or  the  other 
by  scolloping  the  cutting  edges.  Com- 
paring this  shearing  of  metal  to  the 
action   of   the   ordinary   cutting  tool,   as 


FIG.  3. 

used  on  a  lathe  or  planer,  we  immedi- 
ately comprehend  the  varied  conditions. 
The  center  sketch  of  Fig.  1  shows  a 
lathe,  tool  set  to  two  different  depths  of 
cilt,    which    according    to    the    shearing 


in  the  left  hand  sketch.  The  detail  that 
may  be  said  to  relate  these  two  pro- 
cesses, shearing  and  cutting,  is  the  com- 
pression of  the  material  as  the  cut  is  be- 
ing made.  When  a  piece  of  material  has 
been  sheared  the  ends  will  have  the  ap- 
pearance shown  at  A  and  B,  where  the 
metal  has  been  squeezed  during  the  ini- 
tial stages  of  the  cutting  process.  This 
"compression"  or  distortion  is  continued 
further  in  the  case  of  the  cutting  tool, 
owing  to  two  main  reasons;  that  of  the 
relatively  small  cut,  and  to  the  fact 
that  the  resistance  is  continuous.  Owing 
however,  to  the  rake  that  is  given  to 
most  tools,  this  metal  ,as  it  is  crushed 
together,  is  forced  to  move  along  the 
path  of  least  resistance  and  when  the 
compression  reaches  a  certain  point,  the 
chip  is  severed  more  by  a  tearing  process 
than  the  actual  cutting  of  the  metal. 
Chip  Appearance 
To  the  right  of  Fig.  1  is  seen  a  lathe 
tool  and  the  approximate  appearance  of 
a  chip  as  it  comes  from  the  work.  It 
will  be  noticed  that  the  chip  is  much 
thicker  than  the  depth  of  the  cut,  and 
broken  up  into  small  sections.  It  may 
often  be  observed  that  after  a  tool  has 
been  used  for  some  time,  the  cutting 
edge  will  have  an  appearance  similar  to 
that  shown  in  the  exaggerated  sketch  at 
G.  Fig.  1,  the  wear  being  greater  at  a 
short  distance  from  the  edge,  thus 
demonstrating  that  the  force  required  to 
remove  the  metal  is  not  one  of  cutting 
only,  but  also  one  of  crushing  and  bend- 


opeiation.  Close  observation  of  a  piece 
of  material  that  has  been  turned  in  the 
lathe  or  formed  in  the  planer  or  shaper, 
will  show  that  the  surface  is  covered 
with  minute  but  regular  sharp  projec- 
tions, resulting  from  the  action  of  re- 
moving the  metal.  If  this  had  been  cut, 
the  surface  would  have  been  smooth,  but 
the  existing  conditions  denote  that  other 
factors  are  at  work  in  separating  the 
chip  from  the  body  of  the  material. 
What  does  take  place  is  graphically  illus- 
trated in  Fig.  2,  showing  the  splitting  or 
tearing  action  caused  by  the  wedge- 
shaped    tool.     When    the    angle    of   this 


FIG.   4, 

wedge  is  very  acute  and  the  chip  is  light, 
as  shown  at  A,  the  process  is  nearer  to 
a  cutting  one  than  when  the  angle  is  in- 
creased or  the  chip  is  heavier.  When, 
the  chip  is  thin,  the  tearing  of  the  metal 


2Q 


CANADIAN    MACHINERY 


Volume  XVIII. 


extends  but  a  short  distance  ahead  of  the 
tool  as  the  chip  bends  more  freely  than 
that  of  the  heavier  cut,  as  shown  at  B. 

Effective  work  however,  is  practically 
impossible  with  such  an  acute  angle  on 
the  cutting  tool,  and  it  is 
therefore  necessary  that  a 
suitable  angle  be  used  to 
minimize  the  objections  that 
are  self-evident  in  those 
shown  at  A  and  B.  Whereas 
the  chip  in  these  last  two  in- 
stances remains  practicafly 
the  same  thickness  as  the 
depth  of  cut,  the  chip  from 
the  recognized  standard  tool  as  shown  at 
C  has  a  different  apeparance.  As  the 
greater  amount  of  power  required  to  re- 
move the  metal  is  consumed  by  the  tear- 
ing apart  of  the  molecules,  it  has  been 
found  advisable  to  reduce  this  factor  to 
the  lowest  minimum.  This  is  accomp- 
lished by  adopting  an  angle  of  rake  to 
best  answer  all  conditions;  not  the  least 
of  these  being  the  heat  that  is  generated 
during  the  operation.  In  addition  to  the 
heat  that  is  created  by  the  tearing  of 
the  metal,  the  friction  of  the  chip  upon 
the  surface  of  the  tool  and  also  that 
within  the  chip,  caused  by  the  continual 
crushing  and  distortion  of  the  severed 
metal,  results  in  a  rapid  heating  of  the 
tool,  and  if  excessive  rake  is  used  on 
the  tool  the  point  will  quickly  be  des- 
troyed by  the  abnormal  rise  in  tempera- 
ture. To  aid  in  the  dissemination  of  this 
heat,  lubricants  or  cutting  compounds 
are  in  general  use  which  materially  as- 
si.st  the  functions  of  the  tools  in  the  effi- 
cient removal  of  the  metal;  this  feature 
will  however,  be  dealt  with  at  a  future 
time.  An  exaggerated  condition  of  the 
ragged  surface  resulting  from  the   tear- 


stead  of  the  other  way.  This  can  be 
easily  demonstrated  by  passing  the  hand 
over  the  work  after  a  cut  has  been 
taken. 

The   scientific   grinding   of   metal   cut- 


FIG.  6. 

ting  tools  is  receiving  increased  attention 
from  various  plant  executives,  more  par- 
ticularly among  the  larger  manufac- 
turers where  this  problem  can  be  effec- 
tively handled  owing  to  the  greater  num- 
ber of  tools  employed.  The  universal 
tool  grinders  that  are  now  on  the  mar- 
ket have  done  much  to  not  only  attain 
but  maintain  an  efficiency  that  would 
be  impossible  under  the  old  order  of 
things,  for  by  the  use  of  these  it  is  pos- 
sible to  establish  a  system  of  tool  grind- 
ing that  cannot  be  materially  effected  by 
the  varied  ability  and  lack  of  knowledge 
on  the  part  of  the  different  workmen. 
Where  these  grinders  are  installed,  it  is 
possible  to  place  the  maintenance  of  all 
tools  in  the  hands  of  an  experienced 
operator,  so  that  the  work  will  always  be 
accomplished  under  the  same  or  relative- 
ly the  same  conditions;  the  setting  of  the 
tools  by  the  individual  machine  operators 
being  the  only  factor  that  will  subse- 
quently affect  the  general  efficiency  of 
the  tool.  This  latter  feature  is  however, 
one  of  the  essentials  of  machine  shop 
practice  that  cannot  very  well  be  placed 


on  any  recognized  standard  basis,  owing 
grinding  machine  or  fixture,  the  full 
page  chart  accompanying  this  article  has 
been  prepared,  to  show  the  purpose  of 
the  different  tools,  and  the  rake  and  vari- 
ous clearance  angles  that  are  best  suited 
for  general  conditions,  it  being  almost 
impossible  to  compile  data  to  cover  spe- 
cific cases;  these  having  to  be  considered 
according  to  the  work  in  hand  and  the 
particular  nature  of  the  tools  used. 

Taking  a  tool  to  the  grinding  wheel 
and  putting  an  edge  on  it  may  seem 
a  simple  matter,  but  it  may  be  truly 
said  that  the  usefulness  of  tools  is  very 
often  destroyed  by  hurried  or  careless 
grinding.  It  is  not  sufficient  to  put  an 
edge  on  the  tool  but  this  must  be  done 
in  such  a  way  that  the  cutting  efficiency 
will  still  be  retained.  Many  an  operator, 
in  his  anxiety  to  get  back  to  his  work, 
will  rush  the  grinding  process  to  such  a 
point  that  the  tool  will  be  unduly  heated 
with  the  possibility  that  its  cutting 
qualities  will  be  destroyed  by  the  draw- 
ing of  the  temper;  this  is  more  likely 
when  a  dry  wheel  is  used.  Another 
feature  of  hasty  grinding  is  often  shown 
by  the  gradual  disappearance  of  the 
rake  or  clearance,  or  possibly  both,  caus- 
ed by  the  hurry  to  get  on  "edge"  and 
neglecting  the  more  important  factors 
which  perform  the  greater  portion  of 
the   work. 

In  the  use  of  the  wet  wheel,  the  gen- 
eral overheating  of  a  tool  is  not  so 
pronounced,  but  is  none  the  less  likely 
to  be  partly  ruined  by  careless  manipu- 
lation. Excessive  pressure  causes  the 
tool  to  heat  rapidly,  this  heat  being  part- 
ly disseminated  by  the  flow  of  the  cooling 
fluid,  but  the  extreme  cutting  edge  heats 
and  cools  so  rapidly  that  minute  cracks

Fig.  2,  and  the  direction  of  these  saw- 
tooth serrations  is  opposite  to  what 
might  be  supposed,  inasmuch  as  the 
teeth  point  toward   the   cutting  tool  in- 


owing  to  the  varying  characteristics  and 
ability  of  those  who  are  employed  to 
operate  the  various  classes  of  machines.

do  not  have  the  advantage  of  a  special

ing invisible  to  the  naked  eye  but  when 
used  again  on  the  work  will  result  in 
the  edge  crumbling  away,  thus  destroy- 
ing the  effectiveness  of  the  tool.     This

an  unobserving  or  careless  workman 
would  have  the  disposition  to  "force"  the

Correct    Setting   Necessary 

Accurate  grinding  of  tools  may  be 
considered  to  be  one  of  the  essential  fac- 
tors in  the  metal  cutting  problem,  but 
the  efficiency  of  good  gi-inding  may  come 
to  naught  if  it  is  not  followed  by  experi- 
enced judgment  on  the  part  of  those  who 
set  the  tools  for  the  actual  performance 
of  the  work.  Even  the  scientific  grind- 
ing to  recognized  shapes  by  an  expert 
tool  grinder  will  not  compensate  for  the 
destruction  of  the  tool  through  faulty 
setting  of  same.  In  the  hands  of  a 
novice  the  setting  of  the  tools  may  be 
of  much  greater  importance  than  careful 
grinding.  Generally  speaking,  the  cut- 
ting edge  of  all  tools  on  lathes  should 
be  in  the  same  horizontal  plane  as  the 
axis  of  the  spindle,  or  at  the  same  verti- 
cal height  as  the  centers  upon  which  the 
work  revolves.  This  however,  can  be 
modified  to  suit  certain  conditions,  but 
the  rule  must  be  strictly  adhered  to  on 
work  where  the  tool  is  operating  at  dif- 
ferent diameters  during  the  same  cut; 
this  holding  good  for  all  classes  of  work 
with  the  exception  of  parallel  shafts  or 
cylinders.  The  foregoing  can  be  clearly 
shown  by  referring  to  Fig.  3,  which  illus- 
trates an  ordinary  parting  tool  in  the 
operation  of  cutting  off  a  shaft.     If  the 


of  the  cut,  as  shown 
in  Fig.  4.  After  the 
tool  has  been  ground,  it  should  show 
the  same  clearance  on  either  side 
of  the  cutting  blade,  as  illustrated 
at  F;  but  it  should  also  be  seen 
to  that  this  clearance  is  maintained 
after  the  tool  is  placed  in  the  holder. 
For  various  reasons  the  tool  may  acquire 
a  tilt  that  would  eliminate  the  clearance, 
with  the  result  that  the  tool  would  be 
forced  to  one  side  as  it  was  advanced 
into  the  work.  With  the  tool  tipped  as 
shown  at  E,  a  side  thrust  would  be  put 
upon  the  tool  in  the  direction  of  the 
arrow  and,  with  the  saddle  fixed,  the 
tool  would  in  all  probability  rupture  at 
the  point  D  as  the  weakest  section  of  the 
tool. 

Effect  of  Overhang 
Apart  from  the  actual  cutting  of  the 
metal  there  are  several  incidents  in  con- 
nection with  the  setting  of  lathe  tools 
that  materially  affect  the  efficiency  of  the 
tool  being  used.  Rigidity  and  stability 
are  undoubtedly  the  two  factors  upon 
which  the  successful  operation  of  an 
accurately  ground  and  properly  set  tool 
depends.  To  insure  this  condition  it  is 
at  once  realized  that  the  cutting  point 
should  be  as  close  to  the  support  as  cir- 
cumstances will  permit,  and  therefore 
the    overhang  H   should  be   as   short   as 


edge  is  placed  somewhat  above  the  center 
as  shown  at  A,  the  cutting  will  be  en- 
tirely satisfactory  but,  as  the  tool  ap- 
proaches the  center,  the  clearance  of  the 
tool  disappears  owing  to  the  smaller 
diameter,  thus  showing  the  necessity  of 
keeping  the  tool  on  the  center  line  and 
maintaining   a   uniform    angle    of   clear-

possible.  Fig.  5  is  a  sketch  of  an  ordin- 
ary single  post  tool  holder,  showing  two 
positions  of  the  tool  and  illustrating  the 
effect  of  overhang.  The  curved  arrows 
indicate  the  path  of  the  cutting  point 
under  the  pressure  of  the  cut,  the  ful- 
crum being  at  the  point  O  as  shown  in 
the  full  page  chart.     The   ordinary  cut- 


Volume  XVIII. 

ting  tool  is  simply  a  beam  fixed  at  one 
end,  but  is  subjected  to  bending  pressure 
in  two  directions,  that  of  the  downward 
pressure  of  the  cut  and  the  side  thrust 
caused  by  the  feed  along  the  work. 

Fig.  6  is  a  diagram  illustrating  the 
downward  action  of  the  cut;  O  repre- 
sents the  fulcrum  or  extreme  outer 
support  of  the  tool,  the  point  A  being 
the  center  of  the  tool-post  screw,  and 
B  and  C  two  different  positions  of  the 
cutting  edge.  With  a  too!  pressure  of 
500  lbs.  at  the  point  B,  and  the  length 
E  equal  to  2  inches,  the  bending  mom- 
ent about  the  paint  O  would  be  1000 
inch  lbs.,  with  a  similar  cut  at  a  dis- 
tance of  G  or  4  inches,  the  bending 
moment  will  be  2000  inch  lbs.  It  is 
therefore  obvious  that  it  requires  much 
heavier  tools  to  withstand  the  same  cut 
at  greater  distances  from  the  main  sup- 
port, as  the  holding  power  in  each  case 
is   virtually    unchanged. 

Tool  Post  Features 

There  are  in  the  make  up  of  lathe 
tool-posts,  several  small  details  that  re- 
quire careful  and  constant  attention  in 
order  that  the  best  work  can  be  per- 
formed by  the   tools.     One   of  these  is 


riG.  10. 

the  space  that  is  necessary  below  the 
tilting  gib  to  permit  of  clamping  the 
tool  in  position.  When  the  machine  is 
working  on  cast  iron,  the  cuttings  will 
often  accumulate  about  the  post  and 
pack  tightly  in  this  space  and  if  not 
removed  will  prevent  effective  clamping 
of  the  tool.  Another  feature  that  has 
the  same  effect  is  when  too  short  a 
screw  is  used  in  the  post,  or  when  an 
extra  shallow  tool  is  used,  causing  the 
screw  to  tighten  at  the  shoulder,  before 
sufficient  pressure  is  exerted  on  the  tool. 
Still  another  point  that  interferes  with 
the  clamping  facilities  is  the  absence  of 
occasional  lubrication  on  the  threads  of 
the  screw,  especially  on  the  lower  end, 
oil  being  necessary  to  reduce  the  tend- 
ency of  the  screw  to  seize  and  thus  pre- 
vent the  required  pressure  on  the  tool. 
It  would  seem  from  the  position  of  the 
curved  arrows  that  any  "digging  in"' 
would  be  greater  on  the  shorter  than  on 
the  longer  tool,  and  while  this  is  true 
on  the  diagram,  the  increased  rigidity  of 
the  shorter  position  almost  eliminates 
the  tendency  to  dig  in  that  is  so  pro- 
nounced on  the  tool  with  the  greater 
overhang. 

Theoretically  the  longitudinal  position 
of  a  cutting  tool  should  be  at  right 
angles  to  the  line  of  travel,  but  this  rule 
is  seldom   if  ever    strictly    adhered    to. 


July  5,  1917. 

For  ordinary  work  where  an  average  cut 
is  taken,  the  position  of  the  tool  would 
be  as  shown  to  the  left  of  Fig.  7,  but 
as  the  thrust  of  the  cut  acts  in  the  dir- 
ection of  the  straight  arrow,  any  move- 
ment of  the  tool  under  excess  pressure 
would  cause  the  cutting  point  to  travel 
in  the  path  indicated  by  the  curved 
arrow,  the  center  of  the  movement  being 
at  the  point  O  or  the  axis  of  the  tool- 
post  screw.  The  result  of  such  a  possi- 
bility would  have  one  of  two  effects;  that 
shown  at  C  being  caused  by  the  gradual 
change  of  position,  and  that  at  D  by 
the  rapid  slipping  of  the  tool  under  the 
increasing   pressure. 

During  the  past  two  years,  many 
shells  have  been  spoiled  from  this  cause, 
generally  through  the  tool  suddenly  los- 
ing its  cutting  edge  from  encountering 
an  exceptionally  hard  spot  in  the  body 
of  the  forging.  Where  there  is  a  tend- 
ency for  the  tool  to  act  in  this  way  it 
shoiHd  be  held  in  the  position  illustrated 
at  the  right  of  Fig.  7  so  that  any  side 
movement  of  the  tool  will  cause  the 
point  to  travel  away  from  the  work  as 
indicated  by  the  curved  arrow.  To  as- 
sist in  preventing  slippage  of  the  tool 
it  is  sometimes  advisable  to  tighten  the 
screw  when  the  post  is  in  the  position 
sho\\'n  with  the  side  bearing  against  the 
points  A  and  B,  this  method  increasing 
the  stability  of  the  tool. 

Cutting  Clearance 

Under  normal  conditions,  the  clearance 
on  the  advancing  side  of  the  tool  is 
about  six  degrees,  but  under  certain  cir- 
cumstances it  might  be  found  necessary 
to  alter  this  angle.  With  a  heavy  feed 
it  might  be  thought  that  this  angle 
would  require  to  be  increased,  but  a 
study  of  Fig.  8  will  make  it  clear  that 
for  ordinary  turning  the  standard  angle 
is  sufficient.  This  can  be  exemplified  by 
simple  calculation.  On  a  shaft  4  inches 
in  diameter,  the  circumference  will  be 
12.5  inches  nearly,  and  the  sine  of  an 
angle  of  6  degrees  for  this  length  will 
be  approximately  1%  inches.  This  will 
therefore  be  the  required  lead  or  p'tch 
of  the  feed  to  entirely  elim  nate  the 
angle  of  clearance,  and  it  is  quite  obvi- 
ous that  such  a  cut  is  very  improbable. 
To  the  right  of  Fig.  8  is  showTi  a  three 
inch  shaft  with  a  tool  set  for  a  %  inch 
cut.  To  determine  the  angle  of  advance, 
we  divide  the  pitch  (or  feed)  by  the 
circumference  to  find  the  sine  of  the 
angle:  thus  .25  divided  by  3  X  3.1416 
equals  .0265,  and  the  corresponding 
angle  is  approximately  1 V2  degrees. 
Therefore  the  actual  clearance  when  the 
tool  is  cutting  is  6  minus  1.5  equals  4.5 
degrees. 

Thread   Cutting   Tools 

In  the  ordinary  turning  tools,  the 
actual  profile  of  the  cutting  edge  is  not 
a  very  important  factor  and  may  be 
modified  to  suit  specific  conditions,  but 
in  thread-cutting  tools  it  is  essential 
that  the  profile,  or  cutting  edges,  should 
conform  to  accurate  shape  and  dimen- 
sions, as  regards  the  angle  of  the  V 
thread  or  the  width  of  the  square  or 
special    thread    tools.  When    grinding    a 


CANADIAN    MACHINERY 

V,  or  U.  S.  S.  thread  tool,  special  care 
should  be  exercised  in  obtaining  the  cor- 
rect angle,  and  after  getting  it,  to  use 
equal  precaution  in  setting  it  in  the 
tool    holder.      As    accurate    threads    can 


23 


FIG.    11. 

only  be  derived  from  the  cutting  of 
them,  it  is  imperative  that  the  tools  and 
the  ability  of  the  operator  to  cotrectly 
set  and  manipulate  them,  are  the  two 
chief  factors  in  the  successful  perform- 
ance of  this  class  of  work. 

Where  dies  are  the  medium  for  cut- 
ting threads,  the  semi-automatic  opera- 
tion of  the  machine  partly  eliminates 
the  responsiblities  of  the  workman,  but 
when  threads  are  cut  with  the  single 
point  tool  on  the  engine  lathe,  the 
achievement  of  good  work  depends  en- 
tirely upon  the  judgment  and  ability  of 
the  operator,  not  alone  in  the  grinding 
and  setting  of  the  tools  and  the  actual 
cutting  of  the  thread,  but  also  upon  the 
condition  in  which  the  lathe  is  kept. 
Maximum  stability  together  vrith  freely 
operating  mechanisms,  are  essentials  in 
the  accomplishment  of 
accurate  and  rapid 
production. 

In  addition  to  such 
factors  that  are  more 
or  less  common  to  the 
average  workman, 
there  are  very  often 
small  kinds  or  inciden- 
tals, insignificant  in 
themselves  and  known 
only  to  indi\ndual  me- 
chanics, that  tend  to 
facilitate  the  cutting 
of  the  thread.  In  gen- 
eral practice  it  is  cus- 
tomary to  grind  the 
top  of  the  tool  flat  so 
that  the  surface  will 
be  horizontal,  or  par- 
allel to  the  axis  of  the 
lathe  spindle.  This  is 
theoretically  correct, 
but,  in  the  cutting  of  coarse  pitch 
threads,  the  angle  of  advance  is  a 
factor  that  should  be  reckoned  with 
for  more  satisfactory  operation.  When 
the  top  surface  is  horizontal,  it  must  be 
evident  that  each  side  of  the  tool  is 
working  under  contrary  conditions,  ow- 


ing to  the  difference  of  "rake"  upon 
the  tool;  this  is  more  pronounced  on  the 
coarse  pitch  screws.  It  might  appear 
that  with  a  horizontal  face  no  rake  ex- 
isted, but  a  little  observation  will  show 
that  positive  rake  exists  on  the  advanc- 
ing side,  and  negative  rake  on  the  op- 
posite or  trailing  side  of  the  tool.  By 
grinding  the  face  at  right  angles  to  the 
neutral  angle  of  advance,  both  cutting 
edges  of  the  tool  will  operate  under 
practically  the  same  conditions.  Grind- 
ing the  top  face  from  the  horizontal, 
however,  slightly  affects  the  accuracy  of 
the  thread  shape.  Unless  the  pitch  is 
excessive,  this  variation  makes  very  lit- 
tle difference  and,  where  exceptional 
conditions  are  involved,  special  consider- 
ations are  required. 

Cutting   V   Threads 
In  the  cutting  of  V  threads,  or  those 
that  require  the  tool  to  be  operating  on 
the   both    edges   at    the    same    time,   the 
action  of  the  chip  is  a  feature  to  be  con- 
tended   with,   as    the    two    chips    curling 
from  opposite  directions  have  the  tend- 
ency  to   affect   the   free    cutting    of   the 
tool,   and   this   with   the   additional   heat 
that  is  generated  by  the  friction  of.  the 
chips,  often  results  in  the  destruction  of 
the  sharp  point  of  the  tool,  owing  to  its 
inability    to    disseminate    the    increased 
temperature.     When  the  tool  is  fed  dir- 
ectly into  the  work,  or  in  other  words,  at 
right  angles  to  the  axis  of  the  spindle, 
this   possibility   is   ever  present,   and   in 
order  to   avoid  this   contingency   and   at 
the  same  time  materially  assist  the  cut- 
ting  operation,   it   is   often   advisable   to 
swing  the  compound  rest  (where  such  is 
provided)  around,  so  that  the  tool  will  do 
all  or  most  of  the  cutting  on  one  edge. 
As   shown  in   the  left  view   of  Fig.  9 
the  direction   of  cross  feed  travel  is  in- 
dicated by  the  arrow,  and  it  is  obvious 
that    the   tool    at    D    must    cut    on   both 
sides  as  each  cut  is  taken.     On  the  other 
hand,  if  the  rest  is  swung  around  to  an 


FIG.  12. 


angle  of  30  degrees,  it  is  also  clear  that 
only  the  advancing  side  C  will  do  the 
cutting,  provided  the  depth  of  cut  is 
made  by  the  compound  rest  screw.  With 
this  method  of  setting  and  feeding  the 
tool,  it  is  possible  to  retain  a  horizontal 
upper  face,  thus  retaining  the  accuracy 


24 


CANADIAN    MACHINERY 


Volume  XVIII. 


of  the  tool  shape  and  at  the  same  time 
have  the  desired  rake  for  increased  cut- 
ting efficiency. 

Under  these  conditions,  with  the  tool 
cutting  only  on  the  one  side,  the  chips 
do  not  have  the  same  tendency  to  jam 
that  is  so  pronounced  in  the  direct  in- 
ward feed.  It  is  also  possible  to  alter- 
nate the  cutting  from  one  side  to  the 
other,  by  first  feeding  with  the  com- 
pound slide  and  then  with  the  lower  or 
fixed  cross  slide.  After  grinding  the 
tool  to  the  correct  angle,  its  effective- 
ness should  not  be  destroyed  by  care- 
less setting.  Broadly  speaking,  the  cut- 
ting edge  should  be  set  on  the  horizontal 
line  for  reasons  before  mentioned,  and  in 
such  a  position  that  the  inclination  of 
either  side  will  be  relatively  the  same. 
This  should  be  accomplished  by  using 
the  regulation  or  other  suitable  gauge 
as  illustrated  at  B  in  the  right  hand 
sketch  of  Fig.  9.  After  setting  the  tool 
it  should  not  be  knocked  to  one  side  to 
allow  for  clearance  of  shoulders  on  the 
work  or  interference  with  the  drivers  or 
rest.  If  the  tool,  as  first  set,  will  not 
clear  for  all  positions  of  the  thread, 
it  should  be  reground  to  suit  the  condi- 
tions or  replaced  by  another.  If  a  tool 
is  set  as  shown  at  D,  in  Fig.  9  at  right, 
he  it  ever  so  slight,  it  must  be  evident 
that   a   correct  thread   is   impossible. 

Internal   Thread   Tools 

Practically  the  same  conditions  apply 
to  the  cutting  of  internal  as  those  for 
external  threads.  Wherever  possible  a 
recess  should  be  cut  at  the  inner  ex- 
tremity of  the  thread  to  permit  of  free 
cutting.  When  this  is  not  permissible, 
the  first  cut  should  be  allowed  to  go  the 
limit  of  depth  and  at  each  succeeding  cut 
the  tool  should  be  backed  off  a  little 
earlier  that  the  one  immediately  pre- 
ceding it.  The  extension  of  the  tool  that 
enters  the  opening  should  be  as  heavy  as 
circumstances  will  permit,  and  the  over- 
all length  of  this  portion  H,  should  be  as 
short  as  possible,  to  insure  stability  and 
maximum  rigidity  under  the  pressure  of 
the  cut. 

Owing  to  the  increased  difficulties  of 
cutting  internal  threads,  greater  care  is 
reauired  in  grinding  the  tool,  not  as  re- 
gards the  accuracy  of  the  angle  but  in 
its  relation  to  the  part  that  enters  the 
hole.  After  the  tool  is  set  for  proper 
thread  alignment,  it  should  be  run  in 
clear  of  the  bored  hole,  to  the  farther 
end,  and  then  carefully  observed  that  no 
interference  takes  place  at  any  point.  It 
sometimes  happens  that  in  setting  the 
tool,  insufficient  space  is  allowed  at  the 
point  A,  Fig.  10,  and  when  the  tool  is 
cutting  at  the  inner  end,  or  when  being 
freed  from  the  cut,  it  will  rub  against 
the  work  and  destroy  the  threads  at  the 
mouth  of  the  hole. 

Square   Thread  Tools 

The  conditions  that  apply  to  V  threads 
may  also  be  considered  as  those  that 
govern  the  production  of  square  or  spe- 
cial threads.  For  all  ordinary  purposes, 
the  forward  or  advancing  clearance  on 
square  thread  cutting  tools  is  taken  as 
10  degrees,  but  this  angle  must  be 
altered  to  meet  special  conditions.     This 


angle  may  be  determined  by  dividing 
the  pitch  of  single  threads  (or  the  lead 
of  multiple  threads),  by  the  circumfer- 
ence of  the  shaft  upon  which  the  thread 
is  being  cut.  The  result  will  be  the  sine 
of  the  desired  angle,  and  by  looking  up 
.  a  table  of  trigonometric  functions,  the 
corresponding  angle  will  be  obtained. 
The  angle  may  be  derived  graphically 
by  laying  off  the  lead  and  the  circum- 
ference at  right  angles  to  each  other  and 
connecting  the  two  extremities.  It  will 
be  quite  evident  that  the  angle  of  ad- 
vance at  the  root  of  the  thread  will  brf 
considerably  greater  than  that  at  the 
outer  or  larger  diameter,  but  as  the 
front  clearance  angle  of  the  cutting  tool 
counteracts  the  root  angle  of  the  thread, 
it  is  sufficient  to  strike  a  fair  mean  be- 
tween the  two  angles  obtained,  if  any- 
thing, favoring  the  greater  angle.  It  is 
advisable,  more  particularly  on  the 
heavier  threads,  to  use  two  tools  for 
completing  the  work,  one  slightly  nar- 
rower than  the  finished  dimension,  and 
the  other  for  finishing  the  thread  to  the 
correct  width.  This  not  only  facilitates 
the  cutting  operation  but  insures  in- 
creased uniformity  throughout  the 
length  and  also  greater  accuracy. 

A  feature  that  is  additionally  empha- 
sized in  the  cutting  of  square  threads  is 
the  action  of  the  chip  as  it  curls  from 
the  tool.  Referring  to  Fig.  11,  if  the 
top  surface  is  ground  with  a  horizontal 
face,  as  that  shown  to  the  left,  it  will 
cause  the  chip  to  curl  in  a  vertical  dir- 
ection, and  the  chip  will  rub  against 
the  back  or  training  side  of  the  groove, 
creating  a  tendency  for  the  chip  or  small 
detached  particles  to  be  forced  between 
the  tool  and  the  work,  and  resulting  in 
irregular  cutting  of  the  tool.  By  notic- 
ing the  appearance  of  the  tool,  with 
reference  to  the  cutting  edge  on  the 
front  face,  it  is  very  apparent  that  the 
cutting  rake  varies  for  every  section  of 
its  width,  being  greatest  at  the  advanc- 
ing side  and  least  at  the  trailing  corner. 
By  grinding  the  top  face  as  shown  to 
the  right,  the  rake  will  be  equal  at  all 
points,  and  the  chip  will  curl  upwards  at 
rieht  angle  to  the  groove  in  which  it  is 
travelling,  thus  eliminating  the  tendency 
of  the  cuttings  to  jam  by  excessive 
friction  on  the  trailing  side.  This  lat- 
ter method,  however,  will,  owing  to  the 
angle  that  the  front  face  makes  with  the 
axis  of  the  shaft,  have  the  effect  of  pro- 
ducing a  slightly  concave  surface  at  the 
bottom  of  the  groove,  this,  however,  be- 
ing so  insignificant  as  to  be  entirely 
overlooked,  and  may  be  after^vards  re- 
moved if  necessary.  It  is  the  inabilitv 
of  the  chips  to  pass  freely  from  the  tools 
that  often  makes  the  cutting  of  threads 
so  difficult  to  many  workmen. 

Tools  for  Irregular  Work 

As  previously  mentioned  all  tools 
other  than  those  for  parallel  work 
should  be  set  with  their  cutting  edges 
on  the  center  line,  at  the  same  horizontal 
height  as  the  centers  upon  which  the 
work  revolves.  This  is  particularly  true 
of  tapering  work  or  irregular  pieces  de- 
veloped from  the  action  of  a  cam.  In 
Fig.   12   is   illustrated,   as   a   tj'pical   ex- 


ample, a  section  of  an  irregular  piece, 
the  shape  of  which  is  derived  from  the 
movement  of  a  roller  in  contact  with  a 
cam  at  the  rear  of  the  lathe.  Several 
points  must  be  considered  in  connection 
with  the  production  of  work  of  this  des- 
cription, and  where  large  quantities  are 
being  made,  it  is  imperative  that  the 
closest  attention  be  given  to  the  vari- 
ous details  in  order  to  maintain  a  uni- 
form product.  As  no  variation  can  be 
made  in  the  profile  of  the  work,  it  is 
necessary  to  operate  from  this  as  a 
base  in  order  to  calculate  the  shape  or 
size  of  the  tool,  the  contour  of  the  cam, 
and  also  the  size  of  the  roller  in  contact 
with  the  cam. 

With  very  few  exceptions,  the  cutting 
tool  will  travel  at  right  angles  to  the 
axis  of  the  work  as  it  operates  on  the 
constantly  changing  diameter,  and  it  is 
quite  obvious  that  at  no  time  during  the 
entire  length  will  the  tool  be  cutting 
under  the  same  conditions.  As  the  tool 
travels  laterally,  the  neutral  point  at 
which  the  tool  is  cutting,  as  indicated  by 
the  small  arrow  heads,  will  continually 
change,  and  for  this  reason  it  is  always 
advisable  to  have  a  circular  shaped  tool 
to  eliminate  the  possibility  of  error  by 
faulty  grinding. 

Circular  Tools 

The  adoption  of  circular  tools  assists 
in  developing  and  subsequently  main- 
taining the  accuracy  of  the  cam  from 
which  the  work  is  produced.  For  the 
developing  cam  to  be  the  same  shape  as 
that  of  the  finished  work,  it  is  necessary 
that  the  cutting  tool  be  of  circular  form 
and  of  the  same  diameter  as  the  roller 
in  contact  with  the  cam.  If  a  point  is 
used,  it  is  essential  that  a  similar  point 
be  on  the  cutting  tool  but  this  latter 
method  has  many  objections.  The  ' 
neutral  path  of  travel  is  the  all-import- 
ant factor  in  work  of  this  nature.  In 
the  diagram  Fig.  12  the  line  D  E  F 
should  correspond  with  that  of  the  line 
D'  E'  F^,  the  profile  of  the  cam  being 
developed  from  this  latter  line.  It  must 
always  be  borne  in  mind  that  the 
centers  of  the  tool  and  the  cam  roller 
should  be  in  the  same  relative  position 
to  the  contours  of  the  work  and  the  cam. 
If  the  profile  forms  an  arc  of  a  circle 
and  is  developed  by  using  a  radius  arm, 
the  length  of  the  arm  must  equal  the 
radius  of  the  arc  plus  that  of  the  cut- 
ting tool,  and  the  center  of  the  tool  must 
lie  on  the  produced  center  line  of  the 
radius  arm,  when  the  same  is  at  right 
angles  to  the  axis  of  the  work. 

The  full  page  chart  accompanying  this 
article  has  been  made,  as  far  as  possible, 
self  explanatory  so  that  it  can  be  used 
for  reference  purposes.  The  various 
angles  at  which  the  different  faces  arr 
to  be  ground  cannot  possibly  cover  all 
classes  of  work,  and  those  indicated  will 
require  to  be  modified  to  suit  special 
circumstances,  but  for  all  general  con- 
ditions the  angles  given  are  approxi- 
mately correct  for  mild  steel  and  cast 
iron.  With  few  exceptions,  the  sugges- 
tions for  the  grinding  and  setting  of 
lathe  tools,  also  apply  to  shaper  anJ 
planer   tools.

PRODUCTION  METHODS  and  DEVICES 

A  Department  for  the  Interchange  and    Distribution  of  Shop  and  Office  Data 
and     Ideas    Evolved    from    Actual     Practical    Application    and     Experience 


USING  WORN   AND  OUT-OF-DATE 
TOOLS 

Ey  J.  Edwin. 

ONE  often  sees  tools,  especially  ma- 
chinist tools,  that  have  been  in 
constant  use  for,  say,  ten,  twenty, 
thirty  years,  or  even  longer,  and  the 
claim  is  generally  made  by  the  owner 
that  they  are  just  as  good  or  even  better 
'  than  those  made  to-day.  It  does  not  re- 
quire a  very  close  scrutiny  of  these  tools 
to  see  that  as  well  as  being  far  out-of- 
date,  they  are  worn,  nicked,  and  fit  only 
for  the  "discard." 

Among  this  class  of  tools  the  writer 
has  seen  a  bevel-protractor  having  no 
graduation  of  degrees  on  it,  bearing  the 
stamp  of  the  year  1864,  same  having 
been  put  on  by  the  owner  when  he  bought 
it.  A  four-inch  scale  is  seen  still  in  use 
stamped  with  the  figures  "1875."  The 
four  corners  of  the  scale  are  rounded  off, 
the  graduation  marks  are  nearly  worn 
away;  therefore,  for  accurate  measuring 
purposes  it  is  about  as  useful  as  a  strip 
of  sheet  iron.  A  casual  inventory  of 
worn-out  and  broken  tools  used  by  work- 
men will  reveal  a  considerable  number 
having  such  defects  as  warrants  their 
disuse.  Included  in  these  are  monkey- 
wrenches  with  broken  handles  or  handles 
gone  entirely;  the  adjusting  screw  with 
a  worn  thread  and  shaky,  the  knurled 
end  worn  smooth;  hammers  with  the  flat 
sides  broken  off,  the  handles  wired,  or 
partly  missing;  try-squares  nicked,  and 
out  of  true;  pliers  and  hand-vises  which 
slip  and  will  not  take  hold;  flexible 
scales  broken  in  two,  and  numerous  other 
kinds  that  possibly  have  come  to  the 
reader's  attention. 

The  reason  why  such  tools  are  still 
kept  and  usedi»is  because  of  the  associa- 
tions attached  to  them;  a  matter  of  sen- 
timent. Their  use  is  unprofitable  and  ex- 
pensive, because  too  much  care  and 
manipulation  are  required  in  operating 
them.  It  matters  little  in  how  good  a 
condition  an  old  tool  might  be,  for  ac- 
curacy and  convenience  it  can  never  com- 
pare with  those  of  up-to-date  manufac- 
ture. Besides,  the  means  for  producing 
first-class  working  and  accurate  measur- 
'■■■'T  tools  i>  qu;';e  different  and  more 
highly  specialized  than  was  the  case,  say, 
ten  to  forty  or  fifty  years  ago. 

Take,  for  instance,  the  present  type  of 
micrometer,  it  has  in  addition  to  the  bar- 
rel adjustment,  a  rachet  adjustment,  ami 
a  binding  screw  which  holds  the  stem 
when  set,  thus  eliminating  all  possibility 
of  its  moving  after  the  correct  adjust- 
ment has  been  made.  Heat  treatment  of 
tools  is  better  understood  than  it  used  to 
be.  This,  of  course,  is  casting  no  reflec- 
tion on  the  old  school  of  mechanics,  for 
many  of  them  were  highly  skilled,  even 
more  so  than  a  great  many  of  our  work- 
men of  to-day;  but  modern  machine  shop 
practice,    coupled     with     experience    and 


new  ideas,  has  made  possible,  by  means 
of  special  gauges,  grinding  fixtures,  etc., 
the  production  of  tools  that  do  not  vary 
in  the  slightest  degree  of  accuracy. 

There  is  little  excuse  for  workmen  t.^ 
continue  to  use  old  or  out-of-date  tools, 
because  the  class  of  the  latter  that  can 
be  bought  now  are  not  only  moderate- 
priced,  but  they  contain  many  useful  and 
improved  attachments  which  makes  them 
still  more  valuable.  It  should  be  as  much 
a  rule  with  mechanics  to  throw  away 
their  old  tools  as  it  is  of  manufacturers 
to  scrap  their  old  machines  and  replace 
them  with  machines  of  more  modern 
design.

TURRET  LATHE  PRODUCTION  ON 
AN  ENGINE  LATHE 

By  D.  H. 
THE  castings  of  which  a  section  is  shown 
in  Fig.  1,  were  wanted  for  some  equip- 
ment in  a  munition  plant.  Being  for  hy- 
draulic work,  the  best  of  iron  and  work- 
manship   were    required.       The    foundry 


lathe.  An  iron  plate  P,  1,  was  cast,  1V4 
in.  thick,  and  bolted  to  the  cross  slide  in 
place  of  the  tool  post.  This  plate  carried 
five  tools,  bolted  in  slots  in  the  upper 
surface.  These  tools  did  all  the  cutting 
except  the  finishing  on  the  chuck  side  of 
the  castings.  Tool  1  turned  the  outside 
diameter,  tools  3  and  4  roughed  the 
steps  on  the  back,  and  tool  2  turned  the 
front  side.  In  using  the  cross-feed,  tool  2 
began  the  cut,  closely  followed  by  tool 
3,  making  a  parallel  cut  on  the  back; 
these  two  were  not  directly  opposite  and 
when  it  was  time  to  move  tool  3  away  to 
form  the  step,  tool  2  was  in  position  to 
rough  out  the  depressed  ring  on  the  front. 
After  the  roughing  out,  tool  5  was 
brought  up  and  squared  out  both  corners 
of  the  depression. 

The  back  of  the  casting  was  left  flat 
as  showTi  by  the  dotted  lines.  Actual 
working  proved  the  wisdom  of  this;  nei- 
ther of  the  back  tools  encountered  any 
sand  such  as  would  have  been  unavoid- 
able if  the  steps  had  been  cast,  the  bac":

which  took  the  jt)b  could  make  the  iron 
all  right,  but  had  no  apparent  way  to 
machine  them  at  competitive  prices.  One 
hundred  and  twenty  pieces  were  wanted, 
all  faces  to  be  machined  at  one  setting. 

Tool  Layout 

After  some  scheming  the  tool  layout 
shown  by  Fig.  2  was  evolved  and  the 
work  was  done  with  it  in  a  20  in.  engine 


tool  3  acted  as  a  balancing  cut  for  tool  2 
and  prevented  springing  the  disc,  and 
having  plenty  of  metal  to  remove  the 
back  tool  was  not  dulled  by  "skating" 
over  the  scale  on  possible  low  spots. 

Machining  the  Back 

To  give  a  better  finish  on  the  back 
and  to  square  out  the  comers,  two  tools, 
6  and  7,  were  mounted  in  a  plate  P2,  on 


26 


a  slide  rest  bolted  to  the  carriage.  This 
slide  rest  was  the  familiar  auxiliary  one 
with  independent  hand  feed. 

The  tools  used  were  all  high  speed  tip- 
ped, the  tips   being   %    in.  x   %    in.  dis- 
cards from  inserted  blade  milling  cutters 
They  were  brazed  to  C.D.S.  shanks.  They 
averaged  three  grindings  for  the  job. 

Stops  were  set  on  the  cross  slide  to 
gauge  the  diameters;  also  stops  were 
used  for  thickness.  A  piece  of  tool  steel 
was  rnilled  for  a  lathe  hand's  gauge,  giv- 
ing him  in  one  piece  a' thickness  gauge, 
a  depth  of  slot  gauge,  a  width  of  slot 
gauge,  and  a  gauge  for  the  step.  This 
was  the  only  tool  he  had. 

Quick  chucking  and  positive  driving 
were  essential.  A  three-jaw  universal 
chuck  was  used.  Three  chucking  lugs  for 
this  were  cast  on  the  back.  One  of  these 
had  an  extension  that  served  as  a  driver. 
It  thus  took  very  little  time  to  set  up 
each  piece.  Afterwards  a  few  blows 
with  a  hammer  cracked  off  the  lugs. 

A  satisfactory  time  was  realized.  In- 
cluding all  tools,  packing  boxes,  sharpen- 
ing of  tools,  and  setting  up  of  the  job 
there  was  spent  an  average  of  fifty-nine 
minutes  on  each  casting.  This  included 
the  last  of  four  castings  in  getting  ready.

CAST  IRON  MILLING  CUTTERS 

By  D.  A.  Hampson. 

IN  A  pump  shop  not  far  from  New  York 
City,  there  are  large  milling  cutters   in 
use,  which  are  made  entirely  of  cast  iron. 
Experiments  by   the  tool  room  foreman 
produced  the  present  type  which  is  made 
by  turning  up  a  blank  and  cutting  the 
teeth  just  as  if  it  were  tool  steel.     This 
blank  is  heated  to  a  red  heat,  and  plung- 
ed in  a  bath  of  hydrochloric  acid.     It  is 
then  ground  as  any  cutter,  but  a  mini- 
mum  amount  is   taken   off;   provision   is 
made  to  keep  the  discs  straight  in  hard- 
ening and   this   materially   helps— if  too 
much  is  ground  off  the  teeth  are  softer. 
The    cutters    are    not   wonders,    but   are 
sufficiently  good  to  be  used  in   place  of 
the  12  in.  and  14  in.  inserted  blade  cut- 
ters at  present  steel  prices. 

Cast  iron  milling  cutters  have  been 
Used  before.  Some  years  ago  a  railroad 
shop  in  the  Northwest  was  making  them 
for  their  own  use.  These  were  hardened 
by  some  case-hardening  process  they  had 
developed  and  were  made  in  sizes  down 
to  6  in.  in  diameter.

HYDAULIC    AIR    COMPRESSOR    FOR 
TIRE  SERVICE,  ETC. 

By  C.   Mills 

THE  accompanying  sketches  illustrate  a 
simple  device  to  inflate  automobile  or 
bicycle  tires  without  the  usual  manual 
labor.  It  is  cheaply  constructed  and 
very  serviceable.  The  tank  is  an  ordin- 
ary 30  gal.  water  sei-vice  tank  using 
water  at  city  pressure — 60  to  70  lbs.— to 
displace  the  air,  which  is  taken  away  by 
a  small  pipe  at  the  top  and  connected 
to  the  tire  by  a  small  hose.  The  tank 
illustrated  in  Fig.  1  has  been  found  large 
enough  for  tires  up  to  .32  x  ZV2  in.,  one

to  valve  stem,  close  the  valves  A  and  C, 
and  open  D.  The  air  pressure  will  rise 
till   it    is    equal    to    the    water   pressure.

top  head  of  tank.  Beyond  this  level, 
water  is  liable  to  get  into  the  air  pipe 
and  into  the  tire.  To  drain  tank,  open 
valves  A  and  C.  When  empty,  it  is 
ready  for  another  charge. 

The  pressure  in  the  tire  will  be  some- 
what less  than  that  in  the  tank,  caused 
by  the  tension  of  the  small  valve  spring 
in  valve  stem  of  tire.  If  full  tank  pres- 
sure is  required,  it  is  necessary  to  use  a 
small  fitting  like  Fig.  2,  which  is  easily 
made.  It  is  composed  of  the  usual  coupl- 
ing A  soldered  into  a  brass  fitting  B. 
A  small  threaded  stem  passing  down 
through  a  stuffing  box  engages  the  valve 
stem,  forcing  it  down  from  its  seat. 
When  inflating  tire,  turn  the  small 
screw  two  or.  three  turns  down  after  the 
coupling  is  connected  on  valve  stem, 
when  tire  is  full,  loosen  back  the  screw 
before  taking  off  the  coupling.

When  the  necessary  pressure  is  acquired, 
close  valve  D.  Air  can  be  used  until  the 
water  in  gauge  glass  shows  at  high  level

STEAM  TENDERS  FOR  LOCOMO- 
TIVES 

THE  development  of  the  Mallet  locomo- 
tive to  its  enormous  dimensions  on  Amer- 
ican  railways   has  resulted   in   the   "tri- 
plex"   engine    having    three    groups    of 
driving   wheels,   the    rear    groups    being 
under  the   tender.      A   more   recent  and 
more  peculiar  arrangement  is  the  appli- 
cation of  power  to  tenders  for  engines  of 
more  ordinary  type  and  size.    To  increase 
the  power  of  new  goods  engines  of  the 
2—8—2  type  the  Southern  Railway  has 
taken  discarded  engines   of  the  2-6-0 
and    2-8-0   types,   removed   their   boil- 
ers and  placed  large  tanks  or  tender  bo- 
dies on  the  frames.    The  cylinders  of  the 
tender  are  reduced  to  a  smaller  diameter 
than  those  of  the  engine,  and  the  steam- 
ing capacity  of  the  boiler  is  improved  by 
means  of  fire-brick  arches,  while  a  feed- 
water  heater  is  added  to  utilize  the  ex- 
haust   from     the    air-brake    compressor 
pump.     Well-lagged  pipes  convey  either 
superheated    or   saturated    steam   to   the 
tender  cylinders. 

The  2 — 8 — 0  tender  increases  the  draw- 
bar pull  of  the  engine  by- nearly  40  per 
cent.      The   engine  has   cylinders    27   in. 
by  30  in.,  and  63  in.  driving  wheels,  with 
51,600  lb.  tractive  power.     The  cylinders 
are  bushed  to  27  in.  by  26  in.,  giving  a 
tractive  effort  of  48,000  lb.    The  2—8—0 
tender  with   cylinders   20   in.   by   24   in., 
and  50  in.  driving  wheels  has  a  tractive 
effort  of  28.500   lbs.,  making  a   total   of 
76.500  lbs.    The  weight  of  the  steam  ten- 
der is  about  85  tons.    It  carries  8,000  gal- 
lons of  water.     The  engine  weighs   135 
tons  with  107  tons  on  the  drivers.    On  a 
division  seventy  miles  long,  with   gradi- 
ents of  1  in  66  and  1  in  59,  the  2—8—2 
engines  alone     can  take  trains   of  1,100 
tons   on   the   heavy   gradients   and   1.150 
tons  elsewhere.    The  "duplex"  engines— 
with  steam  tenders — can  take  1.400  tons 
and   1,600   tons,  and   increase  of  27  and 
39  per  cent,  respecticely. — The  Engineer.

CANADA'S  RAILROAD  DEVELOPMENT 

IN  our  present  issue,  and  by  way  of  supplementing  the 
articles  which  appeared  a  week  ago  covering  the  Con- 
federation Jubilee  of  the  Dominion  of  Canada,  there  is 
featured,  at  some  length,  the  development  that  has  taken 
place  in  railroading  within  our  borders.  Through  the 
courtesy  of  the  various  railway  executives,  we  are  able  to 
bring  to  the  attention  of  our  readers  a  number  of  facts 
concerning  this  phase  of  our  national  advancement,  and 
through  the  medium  of  the  illustrations  which  accompany 
the  article,  give  them  a  more  vivid  realization  of  the 
extent  and  value  of  the  achievement  compassed. 

It  is,  of  course,  generally  believed  that  as  far  as  the 
construction  of  transcontinental  lines  is  concerned,  we 
have  been  more  enterprising  than  wise,  in  other  words, 
we  are  provided  with  facilities  very  much  ahead  of  their 
profitable  employment.  As  a  result,  how  best  to  minimize, 
if  not  altogether  eliminate  the  undesirable  tendencies 
arising  from  the  meantime  superabundance  of  across- 
country  transportation,  is  a  question  second  only  in  im- 
portance, but  lacking  nothing  in  magnitude,  compara- 
tively, to  our  part  in  the  prosecution  of  the  war  in 
Europe.  The  financial  side  of  our  railroading  is  the  dis- 
turbing factor,  and  this,  of  course,  is  no  new  thing,  as  in 
the  early  neriod  of  our  Confederation  history,  and  prob- 
ably antedating  even  that,  revenue  did  fall  materially 
short  of  expectation,  and  not  only  so,  but  short  of  the 
existing  need.  Steps  have  been  taken  towards  the  best 
possible  solution  of  the  problem  with  which  we  are  mean- 
time menaced,  and  we  are  hopeful,  having  regard  to  the 
procedure  adopted,  and  the  apparent  desire  to  have  highly 
skilled  minds  do  the  work  involved,  that  at  no  distant  date 
the  irksomeness  of  the  situation  will  be  very  materially 
relieved. 

The  cessation  of  emigration  from  the  Motherland  and 
Europe  generally,  as  a  result  of  the  war,  has  retarded 
settlement  to  a  very  great  extent,  hence  in  some  degree 
the  non-fulfillment  of  anticipations  of  transportation  rev- 
enues. Again,  in  view  of  the  long  drawn-out  nature  of 
the  conflict  in  Europe,  with  its  life  and  territory  devastat- 
ing accompaniments,  there  may  well  be  misgivings  as  to 
the  number  of  settlers  who  may  come  to  our  shores  in  the 
next  decade,  or  even  quarter  century.  It  is  of  interest  to 
note,  however,  judging  from  recent  statistics,  that  large 
numbers  from  across  the  line  have  taken  advantage  of  the 
opportunities  we  have  to  offer,  and  perhaps  the  most  sat- 
isfactory feature  of  such  a  circumstance  is  to  be  found  in 


that  the  influx  shows  a  well-balanced  distribution,  between 
the  objectives  of  cultivation  of  the  land,  and  the  establish- 
ment of  manufacturing  plants. 

On  account  of  the  severity  of  our  winters,  we  are 
almost  wholly  dependent  on  our  railroads  for  many 
months  :  in  addition  we  have  to  requisition  their  services 
unstintingly  all  the  time.  The  war,  while  non-hurtful  as 
regards  business  offering,  but  rather  the  reverse,  has  ex- 
ercised its  influence  to  the  detriment  of  our  railroads  in 
other  directions.  We  refer  particularly  to  the  lack  and 
high  price  of  materials  entering  into  road  construction  and 
betterment,  rolling  stock  repair  and  efficiency  maintenance. 
Steel,  that  primary  essential,  not  only  to  railroads,  but  to 
every  conceivable  form  of  industrial  enterprise,  is  not  only 
high-priced,  but  scarce,  and  is  likely  to  remain  so  while  the 
war  lasts.  Not  only  are  our  own  steel  mills  devoting  their 
whole  attention  to  the  production  of  munitions  steel,  or 
that  to  serve  a  kindred  end,  but  those  of  the  United  States 
from  which  we  have  been  wont  to  at  least  supplement  our 
requirements,  are  likewise  so  concentrated. 

Much  heart-burning  has  been  in  evidence  with  regard 
to  the  apparent  failure  of  our  railroads  to  measure  up  to 
the  needs  of  the  hour,  not  only  with  regard  to  the  trans- 
portation of  much  needed  munitions  and  general  manufac- 
turing equipment,  but  to  that  of  maintaining  a  sufficient 
fuel  supply  for  daily  and  coming  winter  needs.  We  are  of 
opinion  that  not  only  are  all  the  circumstances  fully  appre- 
ciated by  our  railroad  executives,  but  their  efforts  are 
concentrated  to  overcome  the  "hard  spots."  It  is  impos- 
sible to  do  otherwise  than  credit  the  various  administra- 
tions with  as  much  common-sense  as  is  to  be  found  in  the 
conduct  of  any  other  line  of  business,  no  matter  its  nature. 
No  business  enterprise  can  boast  of  an  unblemished  record 
of  achievement,  and  none  ever  will,  it  may  be  added,  al- 
though not  a  few  still  measure  up  to  a  comparatively  low 
standard.  It  may  be  said  of  our  railroads  that  their 
efficiency  rating  will  not  suflter  by  any  comparison  with 
industrial  enterprise  generally.

MONEY  A  FACTOR  IN  OUR  BUSINESS  OUTLOOK 

THE  money  situation,  present  and  prospective,  con- 
tinues an  important  factor  in  relation  to  the  business 
outlook  in  Canada.  However,  it  is  not  likely  that 
money  shortage  will  seriously  affect  the  general  prosperity 
of  the  country,  although  it  may  necessitate  some  changes 
and  adjustments  in  order  that  available  capital  be  em- 
ployed to  the  best  advantage,  especially  as  the  American 
market  is  becoming  more  difficult  to  negotiate  for  new 
funds,  and  may  be  later  closed  altogether. 

Fundamentally  Canada  is  an  agricultural  country,  and 
with  good  crops  at  the  prevailing  high  prices  for  food- 
stuffs, and  with  war  demand  for  manufactured  products, 
moderate  prosperity  is  assured.  That  is  at  least  so  long 
as  we  manage  our  internal  affairs  in  manner  to  success- 
fully reach  the  waiting  markets  with  our  natural  and 
manufactured  profits.  Ruling  prices  insure  the  required 
margin  of  profit,  but  it  is  very  important  that  we  should 
have  smoothly  working  transportation  facilities.  It  is 
vitally  important  that  we  should  move  products  and  raw 
materials  in  such  a  manner  as  to  secure  quick  turnover. 

In  this  connection  the  car  shortage  has  a  direct  bearing 
upon  the  business  situation.  The  more  rapidly  that  crops 
or  manufactured  goods  reach  their  market  the  more 
quickly  will  the  capital  which  they  represent  be  raised  for 
other  undertakings.  Canada  must  make  delivery — at  least 
to  the  seaboard — to  get  the  benefit  of  her  production.  The 
more  rapid  the  movement,  the  greater  the  amount  of  busi- 
ness which  can  be  negotiated  with  the  country's  available 
funds.

The    General    Market   Condition   and   Tendency 

nplIE  defline  in  prices  of  soft  coal  in  the  I'nited  States,  ranging 
from  $1  to  $1.50  a  ton  will  benefit  Canadian  eon.^umers.  and  it 
i<  to  be  hoped  that  prices  of  anthracite  will  al.^o  be  rednced.  The 
steel  market  Ls  a.*  strong  as  ever,  and  further  advances  in  prices 
are  looked  for  in  the  near  future.  Steel  prices  are  almost  getting 
beyond  the  reach  of  the  average  consumer,  and  private  enterprises 
are  in  many  ca.ses  being  restricted.  The  shortage  of  steel  is  also  a 
.•^erious  factor  and  one  that  will  become  more  acute  owing  to  the 
increasing  demand  for  war  purpo.se.*.  Domestic  pig-irons  are  still 
off  the  market  and  it  is  impo.ssible  to  say  when  the  situation  will 
impi-ove.  The  furnaces  are  sold  up  for  the  whole  of  this  year  with 
a  ,2jowing  demand  for  next  year's  output.  Pig-iron  prices  con- 
tinue to  advance  in  the  United  States  and  the  market  is  very 
strong.  Connellsville  coke  is  also  advancing,  but  supplies  are 
moving  forward  from  the  ovens  in  better  volume.  The  scrap  metal 
market  continues  dull  and  featureless,  with  consumers  holding  off 
in  expectation  of  lower  prices.  Indications,  however,  point  to  a 
firmer  market.  Prices  of  non-ferrous  metals  are  holding  firm  on 
the  basis  of  la.-^t  week's  (Quotations:  Inisiness,  however,  continues 
dull.  a.«  the  trade  is  still  awaiting  developments  regarding  the 
American  Government  requirements.  The  situation  in  the 
machine  tool  market  continues  unchanged,  but  general  advances 
are  looked  for. 


Montreal,  Que.,  June  30,  1917.— Indus- 
trial conditions  in  all  quarters  reflect  the 
pressure  that  still  characterizes  every 
phase  of  activity.  The  .American  situa- 
tion is  clearing  but  a  certain  degree  of 
uncertainty  marks  the  developments 
that  are  now  coming  to  a  climax.  Steel 
■  ■onditions  have  been  a  little  quieter  dur- 
ing the  week  and  advances  have  been 
'.ess  pronounced,  but  no  marked  relief 
has  been  noted  regarding  the  acute  sit- 


uation in  connection  with  the  delivery  of 
all  kinds  of  material. 

Pig  Iron 

Activity  in  pig  iron  is  still  the  feature 
of  the  iron  and  steel  mai-ket  with  quota- 
tions higher  on  certain  grades.  The 
Pittsburgh  price  on  basic  pig  has  again 
advanced,  the  quotation  this  week  being 
$5.5.9.5  per  ton,  an  increase  on  the  week 
of  $2  per  ton.      The    demand    for    low 


phosphorus  pig  has  never  been  equalled 
and  as  high  as  $92  is  now  being  paid  for 
this  particular  grade.  Canadian  condi- 
tions are  becoming  more  acute  with  pro- 
ducers out  of  the  market  and  no  quota- 
tions available. 

Steel 
With  a  few  notable  exceptions  the  en- 
tire situation  has  taken  on  a  quiet  tone 
and  price  changes  that  have  been  a  con- 
tinual feature  for  several  weeks  past,  in 
nearly  all  lines  of  product,  are  this  week 
confined  to  bars  and  shapes  and  also 
higher  quotations  for  plates;  this  latter 
being  no  surprise  in  view  of  the  ab- 
normal conditions  prevailing  in  the  ship- 
ping industry.  Every  effort  is  being  put 
forth  to  facilitate  the  increased  produc- 
tion of  steel  plates  but  there  appears  no 
possibility  of  attaining  the  proportions 
that  are  at  present  required  to  meet  the 
enormous  consumption.  The  abnormal 
needs  could  be  still  further  increased  if 
there  was  any  likelihood  of  obtaining  the 
material;  even  the  exorbitant  prices 
being  a  secondary  consideration  to  that 
of  securing  the  steel.  Conditions  in  the 
States  are  still  of  such  a  nature  as  to 
keep  the  trade  undecided  as  to  what 
course  the  government  will  adopt  in  con- 
nection .with  the  regulation  of  the  prices 
to  be  paid  for  steel  and  other  require- 
ments. What  effect  the  action  of  the 
government  will  have  on  early  future 
conditions,  is  as  yet,  too  early  to  predict, 
but  it  is  not  thought  that  any  great  re- 
vision will  result  owing  to  the  heavy  de- 
mands and  constant  inquiries  from  all 
Quarters  and  for  all  classes  of  materials. 
Mills  are  still  turning  down  orders  for 
future  positions  as  their  books  are  fill?'!

up  in  many  instances  to  the  end  of  1918. 
The  local  district  continues  to  suffer  ow- 
ing to  the  inability  to  get  satisfactory 
delivery  of  material;  dealers  here  are 
closely  watching  American  developments 
for  a  lead  in  future  transactions,  but  the 
situation  is  practically  unchanged  from 
that  of  the  previous  week.  All  prices 
are  firm  with  an  undertone  of  increasing 
strength  in  plates.  Further  advances  on 
American  quotations  would  eventually 
be  reflected  in  local  prices.  The  United 
States  market  has  had  a  quiet  week  res- 
pecting price  changes;  the  only  ones 
noted  being  in  steel  bars  and  tank  plates, 
the  former  on  an  advance  of  $5  per  ton 
is  now  quoted  on  a  base  of  4%c  per 
pound  Pittsburgh.  The  quotation  on 
tank  plates  has  been  advanced  another 
$20  per  ton,  the  base  price,  Pittsburgh, 
has  been  advanced  another  $20  per  ton, 
the  base  price,  Pittsburgh,  being  10c  flat. 

Metals 

The  general  metal  situation  still 
carries  a  burden  of  uncertainty  owing  to 
the  delayed  action  of  the  American  Gov- 
ernment in  relation  to  the  regulation  of 
price  conditions.  The  nearer  approach 
to  a  decision  in  this  matter  has  added  to 
the  nervousness  that  has  characterized 
the  market  for  the  past  several  weeks. 
The  announcement  that  a  nrice  of  2.5c  is 
to  be  paid,  has  done  much  to  clear  the 
atmosphere,  but  even  this  price  is  in- 
definite as  no  settled  agreement  has  yet 
been  made  between  the  producers  and 
the  government,  the  price  to  be  later  de- 
cided after  a  commission  has  investi- 
gated the  present  cost  of  production. 
Open  market  prices  on  copper  continue 
firm.  Disturbing  factors  have  made  tin 
weaker.  Lead,  spelter  and  antimony  are 
also  easier. 

Copper.  — The  American  Government 
has  at  last  decided  to  fix  a  price 
of  25c  for  their  copper  require- 
ments; this  however  with  the  under- 
standing that  the  price  is  subject 
to  the  finding  of  a  commission  who  have 
been  appointed  to  investigate  the  pres- 
ent cost  of  producing  copper.  This 
phase  of  a  very  uncertain  situation  has 
materially  relieved  the  tension  of  the 
past  few  weeks  but  owing  to  the  in- 
definite nature  of  the  proposals  the  mar- 
ket conditions  retain  a  certain  degree  of 
nervousness,  which  will  only  be  finally 
lifted  by  the  recommendation  of  the  in- 
vestierating  committee.  No  changes  are 
reported  on  the  New  York  market,  and 
r'uo'^a'^ions  >iere  remain  firm  and  un- 
changed; .37V-C  for  lake  and  electro,  and 
Z6^'"C   for  castings. 

Tin. — ^The  developments  of  the  past 
few  months  p-radually  leading  up  to  the 
probable  control  of  industrial  markets 
in  the  States  by  the  Federal  government, 
has  created  a  situation  that  has  culmin- 
ated in  what  at  present  appears  to  be  a 
disorganized  condition  in  all  circles. 
This  is  due  more  to  the  uncertainty  of 
the  government's  attitude  than  to  any 
material  unsettin<r  of  actual  conditions. 
In  face  of  delayed  cables  and  a  falling 
oflt  of  the  domestic  demand  the  Ameri- 
can market  has  taken  on  an  easier  tone 
and    prices    have    declined    IMc    on    the 


week,  the  spot  price  being  now  62  ^/ic 
per  lb.  On  a  quieter  market  local  deal- 
ers continue  to  quote  63c  per  lb. 

Spelter. — The  attitude  of  producers  in 
refraining  from  accepting  orders  for 
future  positions,  together  with  the  fact 
that  consumers  are  also  holding  off,  has 
affected  the  market  to  such  an  extent 
that  weakness  has  developed  with  a 
slight  decline  in  price  quotations.  New 
York  markets  is  %c  lower  than  a  week 
ago.  Local  price  is  unchanged  at  12c 
per  lb.,  market  rather  quiet. 

Lead. — The  lull  that  has  come  upon 
the  lead  market  has  brought  to  light 
considerable  metal  which  may  go  far 
to  allay  the  fears  of  consumers  that 
there  was  a  pronounced  .shortage  of  this 
metal.  The  range  of  prices  between  the 
leading  interests  and  the  independents 
has  again  been  decreased,  the  outside 
Quotation  being  now  IIV2C,  a  decline  of 
'2C  during  the  week.  The  market  locally 
has  been  steady  but  this  week's  quota- 
tion of  14%c  is  a  decline  of  %c  per  lb. 

Antimony.  —  Increased  buying  has 
somewhat  revived  the  interest  in  this 
metal  but  the  demands  for  future  re- 
quirements are  very  light,  and  the  sup- 
plies are  much  larger  than  the  market 
can  dispose  of.  The  market  is  easier  on 
the  New  York  quotations  but  dealers 
here  continue  to  quote  last  week's  price 
of  25c  per  lb. 

Machine   Tools   and    Supplies 

No  impor'^ant  developments  have  tak- 
en place  in  this  branch  of  industrial  ac- 
tivity and  conditions  continue  10  reflect 
the  stress  that  is  so  pronounced  in  other 
directions.  Sales  are  light  in  muniiions 
machinery  but  very  encourasring  in  res- 
pect to  general  demand.  narMcularly  in 
connection  with  equipment  for  shipbuild- 
ing and  accessory  purposes.  The  Anier- 
ican  situation  has  increased  the  diffi.ulty 
of  obtaining:  delivery  from  firms  in  the 
spates,  owing  to  the  adnormal  demand 
for  machines  for  various  purposes.  The 
supplv  situation  maintains  its  normal 
condition  with  prices  on  all  commodities 
very  firm  or  stronerer;  a  feature  that  is 
likely  to  mark  this  market  for  an  in- 
definite period. 

Scrap 

Dullness  has  apparently  affected  the 
old  metal  situation,  and  the  waiting  at- 
titude seems  to  be  more  pronounced  than 
last  week.  As  the  time  draws  nearer  for 
definite  action  on  the  part  of  the  Ameri- 
can authorities,  the  nervousness  is  in- 
creasing. These  factors  are  having  an 
influencing  effect  upon  dealers  and  con- 
sumers, and  sales  are  quiet.  Local  deal- 
ers report  a  strong  market  with  an  un- 
certain undertone. 


Toronto,  Ont..  July  3.— That  the  trade 
of  Canada  continues  to  expand  is  shown 
in  the  statement  recently  issued  at  Ot- 
tawa by  the  Department  of  Customs.  For 
the  month  of  June  the  revenue  am.ounted 
to  $15,386,678,  compared  with  $12,0311,451 
for  June,  1916,  being  an  increase  of  $3,- 
536,226.  For  the  first  three  months  of 
the  present  fiscal  year  the  increase  in  re- 
venue amounted  to  $11  248,798  over  the 
corresponding  period  of  last  year.    These 


figures  are  very  satisfactory  in  view  of 
the  conditions  prevailing  in  regard  to 
shortage  and  increasing  high  cost  of  raw 
materials  and  scarcity  of  labor.  A  re- 
duction in  the  price  of  soft  coal  ranging 
from  $1  to  $1.50  per  ton  in  the  United 
States  is  welcome  news,  and  will  benefit 
consumers  in  this  section  of  this  country. 
It  is  not  known  as  yet  if  anthracite  will 
be  affected,  but  it  apepars  likely.  The 
important  thing  now  is  to  get  coal  mov- 
ing in  sufficient  quantities  to  fully  sup- 
ply the  demand. 

Steel 

Conditions  in  the  market  in  the  U.  S. 
dominate  the  situation  in  Canada  to  a 
greater  extent  than  at  any  other  period. 
Canadian  mills,  by  reason  of  their  heavy 
commitments  of  steel  for  war  purposes, 
can  only  take  care  of  their  domestic  busi- 
ness to  a  small  extent;  the  bdince  must 
of  necessity,  as  far  as  possible,  be  ob- 
t'l.ined  from  the  States.  In  thnt  market, 
however,  conditions  are  such  that  do- 
mestic consumers  there  cannot  obtain  a 
fraction  of  the  steel  they  i-equire  and  pri- 
vate enterprise  has  fallen  off  in  propor- 
tion. Canadian  consumers  are  affected 
in  a  like  manner,  and  they  are  suflFering 
serious  inconvenience.  Not  only  is  the 
shortage  of  steel  getting  more  acute,  but 
prices  of  nnny  products  are  becoming  al- 
most prohibitive  for  the  average  manu- 
facturer, whose  only  hope  is  to  continue 
in  business  as  long  as  his  old  contracts 
fo"  steel  will  carry  him,  and  then  await 
a  readjustment. 

Althou'jh  there  are  no  price  chansjes  to 
announce  this  week,  a  number  of  ad- 
vances are  in  prospect.  Iron  and  steel 
bars  and  structural  shapes  are  expected 
to  advance  very  shortly.  Higher  prices 
on  wrought  pipe  are  also  looked  for.  The 
situation  in  plates  is  tighter  than  ever, 
and  higher  prices  are  inevitable.  The 
plate  mills  are  being  taxed  to  the  limit  to 
meet  the  requirements  of  the  American 
Government  and  private  shipbuilders. 
Prices  of  plates  are  entirely  nominal,  and 
no  one  can  tell  what  the  market  is.  Con- 
ditions in  the  boiler  tube  trade  are  un- 
changed, and  prices  continue  very  firm. 

The  sheet  market  continues  steady, 
with  prices  practically  nominal.  The 
commercial  demand  for  sheets  continues 
active,  but  the  mills  are  refusing  to  quote 
on  new  business  not  coming  from  regular 
customers,  conserving  as  much  of  their 
output  of  sheets  of  all  grades  for  Gov- 
ernment needs.  The  U.  S.  Government 
are  ordering  sheets  at  the  rate  of  19,000 
tons  monthlv. 

It  is  expected  that  the  American  Gov- 
ernment will  shortly  announce  a  decision 
with  regard  to  contract  prices  for  iron 
and  steel  products.  In  the  meantime, 
prices  are  advancin?,  due  largely  to  Gov- 
ernment orders,  with  the  result  that  pri- 
vate consumers  are  holding  off  from  the 
market  wherever  possible. 

Pig  Iron 

Domestic  foundry  pig  irons  continue 
off  the  market,  and  the  situation  is  gen- 
erally unchanged.  Pig  iron  prices  in  the 
States,  however,  are  still  advancing.  At 
Buffalo,  No.  1  foundry,  malleable  and 
basic,  are  now  held  at  $53  to  $55.  Lake 
Superior  charcoal  iron  is  now  $57,  Chi-

■cago.  The  coke  situation  continues  to 
grow  serious.  Producers  are  not  willing 
to  enter  upon  contracts  at  any  price,  as 
they  say  they  cannot  tell  what  their  pro- 
duction costs  will  be,  nor  whether  they 
can  secure  a  sufficient  number  of  cars  to 
make  deliveries.  Connellsville  coke  has 
recently  been  sold  as  high  as  $15.50 
ovens,  and  further  advances  are  expected 
shortly. 

Scrap 
The  situation  in  the  scrap  market  is 
unchanged,  and  prices  are  at  the  same 
level  as  quoted  last  week.  Consumers 
continue  to  keep  out  of  the  market  in  the 
expectation  of  lower  prices.  Heavy  melt- 
ing steel  and  machinery  cast  iron  are  in 
good  demand  and  prices  are  holding  firm. 
Shell  turnings  are  in  good  supply,  and 
stocks  on  hand  are  increasing  with  a  con- 
sequent weakening  in  price.  There  is  a 
continued  scarcity  of  most  old  materials 
which  is  tending  to  keep  prices  up. 

Machine  Tools 

Fair   demand    for     machine   tools     for 
general  purposes  continues,  to  be  the  fea- 
ture of  market.     Prices  of  practically  all 
lines  of  tools  are  very  firm,  with  pros- 
pects of  advances.     In  the  Chicago  dis- 
trict, advances  of  -5  to  1.5  per  cent,  have 
been  made  on  almost  all  kinds  of  machine 
tools.     Radial  drills  have  alvanced  15  per 
cent.,  and  boring  mills  10  per  cent.  There 
is    increasing   activity   in   the   market   in 
the  States,  which  will  affect  deliveries  of 
machinery  imported  into  Canada. 
Supplies 
Business     continues     active     at     firm 
prices,  but  there  are  no  changes  of  par- 
ticular importance  to  note  this  week. 
Metals 
The  metal  markets  have  been  more  or 
less    inactive    during   the   week,   as   con- 
sumers and  producers  are  awaiting  fur- 
ther developments  in  regard  to  the  Am- 
erican Government  buying.       Last  week 
the    Government  purchased  a  quantity  of 
lead  at  8c,  St.  Louis,  while  more  recently 
it  was  announced  that  60,000,000  pounds 
of   copper   had    been    purchased    at   25c, 
New  York.     A  decision  in  regard  to  the 
other  metals  has  yet  to  be  made,  which 
introduces  an  element  of  uncertainty  into 
the  market.     There  are  no  price  changes 
to  note  this  week,  but  quotations  gener- 
ally are  holding  firm. 

Ccpper. — The  purchase  of  sixty  million 
pounds  of  copper  at  25c  by  the  American 
Government  has  created  considerable  in- 
terest in  the  market,  and  it  is  believed  to 
be  an  indication  that  the  Government 
consumption  for  its  own  use  and  also 
that  of  the  Allies  is  going  to  be  excep- 
tionally heavy.  The  market  is  quiet  and 
prices  continue  more  or  less  nominal 
for  all  positions.  Lake  and  electrolytic 
are  auoted  at  37c,  and  castings  36c  per 
pound. 

Tin. — The  market  is  dull  and  feature- 
less, but  prices  are  holding  firm.  Local 
quotation,  66c  per  pound. 

Spelter. — The  market  continues  dull, 
with  a  continued  lack  of  interest  taken  in 
spelter  bv  consumers.  It  is  expected  that 
further  U.  S.  Government  orders  for 
.snelter  will  be  nt  prices  probably  better 
than    were   fixed    for   the   previous    pur- 


chase. Local  quotations  unchanged  at 
12c  per  pound. 

Lead. — The  tone  of  the  market  is 
easier,  and  the  independents  have  drop- 
ped their  price  to  11.50c  New  York,  which 
is  now  only  a  shade  above  the  "Trust" 
quotation.  Local  quotations  unchanged 
at  14Uc  per  pound. 

Antimony. — Dullness  continues  to  pre- 
vail in  the  market,  and  prices  are  un- 
changed at  26c  per  pound. 

Aluminum. — The  market  is  quiet  and 
demand  light,  with  quotations  unchanged 
at  68c  per  pound. 


Pittsburgh,  Pa.,  June  30. — Buyers  of 
steel  are  asking  each  other  the  question 
what  is  to  become  of  the  steel  market  as 
there  is  no  check  to  the  flight  in  prices. 
Long  ago  they  passed  the  level  at  which 
business  could  be  comfortably  done,  and 
now  they  are,  to  most  consumers,  alto- 
gether prohibitive.  Almost  throughout 
this  price  movement,  which  began  Janu- 
ary 1,  1915,  there  has  been  the  thought 
that  possibly  the  market  would  break,  as 
it  seemed  to  be  advancing  beyond  levels 
that  could  be  maintained,  but  each  time 
those  who  expected  lower  prices  have 
been  disappointed.  It  is  surprising  how- 
little  confidence  some  buyers  have  in  a 
decline,  and  how  they  halt  on  the  question 
of  whether  to  buy  or  not  to  buy,  even 
though  they  can  see  no  possibility  of  se- 
curing such  prices  for  their  finished 
wares  as  would  justify  their  paying  the 
prices  for  rolled  steel  now  asked. 

Of  course  there  are  many  buyers  who 
have  simply  dropped  out  of  the  market 
entirely,  realizing  that  there  is  less 
danger  in  not  buying  than  in  buying, 
and  thus  the  market  has  been  made  nar- 
rower and  narrower  week  by  week,  in 
point  of  tonnage.  There  seems  always  to 
be  greater  restriction  in  the  offerings 
than  in  the  demand  and  thus  prices  tend 
to  advance  more  and  more.  Blue  an- 
nealed sheets  are  quotable  at  8c  to  9c, 
or  half  a  cent  a  pound  more  than  the 
auotstion  named  a  week  ago,  while  black 
sheets,  althoueh  quotable  e-enerallv  at 
8c  to  9c,  are  nearer  the  higher  figure 
than  the  lower.  Galvanized  sheets  are 
ouoted  all  the  wav  from  10.25c  to  10.75c 
for  delivery  late  in  the  vear.  depending 
on  tonnage  and  the  standing  of  the  buyer. 
Tank  plate  is  now  quoted  at  9c  to  10c,  or 
a  cent  a  pound  more  than  a  week  ago, 
shit)  plates  being  in  the  neighborhood  of 
12c. 

An  Absurd  Market 
The  market  is  absurd  not  only  in  the 
height  it  has  reached  but  also  in  the  great 
disparity  now  existing  betvi'een  prices 
quoted  as  the  market  on  fresh  purchases, 
and  prices  at  which  steel  is  now  being 
delivered.  On  an  average  the  current 
market  is  about  double  the  average  in- 
voice price  of  the  steel  being  shipped.  In 
plates  and  sheets  the  divergence  is  still 
greater.  Probably  nearly  all  of  the  early 
contracting  in  sheets  for  the  present  half 
year  was  at  3.25c  to  3.75c.  In  the  case  of 
plates  it  is  quite  certain  that  the  average 
price  on  the  deliveries  now  being  made 
bv  the  larger  mills  is  under  three  cents, 
<3r  less  than  one-third  the  nresent  nuoted 
market.      The    smaller    mills,    which    do 


not  contract  ahead,  are,  of  course,  receiv- 
ing higher  prices  on  their  current  ship- 
ment. The  great  disparity  between  mar- 
ket prices  and  prices  on  actual  shipments 
makes  it  particularly  diflScult  for  any 
manufacturer  of  finished  wares,  who  is 
not  protected,  to  do  business,  because  the 
market  for  the  products  he  sells  has  not 
correspondingly  advanced. 

Government  Regulation 

The  opinion  has  been  spreading  rapidly 
in  the  past  fortnight  that  there  will  soon 
be  some  form  of  Government  regulation 
of  steel  prices.  While  the  steel  manufac- 
turers as  a  rule  say  nothing  on  this  sub- 
ject or  if  they  talk  simply  refer  to  the 
difficult  or  "impossibility"  of  the  Govern- 
ment fixing  a  schedule  of  prices  on  corn- 
modities  showing  such  a  wide  range  in 
size,  quality,  etc.  A  few,  however,  frank- 
ly state  that  they  expect  Government 
price  regulation  to  be  forced.  If  such  a 
thing  borders  on  the  impossible,  so  is  the 
present  steel  market  impossible,  as  re- 
wards the  conduct  of  any  regular  and 
orderly  business.  It  is  only  the  buyer 
placed  in  exceptional  circumtsances  who 
can  afford  to  pay  the  prices  now  asked 
by  the  few  mills  that  will  quote  at  all 
The  opinion  that  there  will  be  Govern- 
ment price  regulation  in  the  iron  and  steel 
industry  has  been  strengthened  by  the 
regulation  of  coal  prices,  which  was 
agreed  to  Thursday,  June  28,  to  become 
effective  July  1.  The  price  for  the  Pitts- 
burgh coal  district  is  $3  for  slack  and 
mine-run,  per  net  tone  at  mine,  this  price 
being  net  to  operators,  brokerage  up  to 
25  cents  being  allowed. 

The  case  of  iron  and  steel,  however,  is 
totally  different  from  that  of  coal.   There 
were  few  contracts  made  for  the  twelve- 
month beginning  April.  1,  1917,  and  most 
of  the  coal  movement  has  either  been  by 
actual  transactions  in  the  spot  market,  or 
bv    shippers    having    an    understanding 
whereby  they  shipped  customers  at  a  cer- 
tain rate,  the  price  being  adjusted  week 
by  week  at  the  spot  market  or  a  shade 
under.      Thus    the    coal    industry    starts 
under   the   new  regime   with   very   little 
contract  tonnage  on  its  books,  and  the  ad- 
justment   is    easy.      The    blast   furnaces 
and  steel  mills,  on  the  other  hand,  have  a 
great  deal  of  tonnage  on  books  and  are 
behindhand  in  deliveries.     If  prices  were 
fixed  at  much  below  the  present  market 
many  contracts  would  have  to  be  revised. 
The  producers  would  have  nothing  to  sell 
for  some  time  to  come,  and  there  would  be 
confusion   in   deliveries.     Undoubtedly   it 
would  be  necessary  for  deliveries  on  ex- 
isting contracts  to  be  regulated  also. 
Pig  Iron  and  Scrap 
ThePittsburgh  scrap  market  has  exper- 
ienced a  little  break  in  the  past  week,  and 
this  is  attributed  to  the  dealers,  fearing 
that  there  will  soon  be  such  Government 
regulation  of  finished  steel  prices  as  will 
reduce  scrap  values.     The  pig  iron  mar- 
ket presents  the  appearance  of  continuing 
to  advance,  but  the  advances  are  not  well 
marked  in  all  districts  and  the  disposition 
to  buy  is  certainly  reduced.     As  illustra- 
tive of  the  nervous  condition  of  buyers, 
therf  was  a  rumor  in  New  England  two 
or  three  days  ago  that  the  Government 


32 


CANADIAN    MACHINERY 


Volume  XVIII. 


was  going  to  reduce  pig  iron  to  $30  a  ton. 
The  source  could  not  be  identified  and 
the  rumor  certainly  was  not  authentic, 
but  it  caused  many  of  the  buyers  to  ques- 
tion sales  agents,  seeking  further  in- 
formation. 


New  York,  June  30.— Machinery  inter- 
ests throughout  the  United  States  are 
overwhelmed  with  business.  The  capa- 
city of  the  manufacturing  plants  is  sold 
for  six  months  to  a  year  ahead  and  de- 
liveries are  from  seven  to  eight  months 
in  arrears,  in  not  a  few  instances.  To 
meet  the  pressure  many  machine  tool- 
makers  and  founders  are  extending 
plants  by  building  additional  shops.  The 
demand  at  the  moment  is  heaviest  for 
fabricating  shop  equipment.  The  new 
orders  come  mainly  from  ship  builders 
who  have  already  secured  contracts  for 
cargo  boats  from  the  Government.  War 
munition  manufacturers  are  actively  in 
the  market  and  liberal  contracts  have  al- 
'  ready  been  placed  by  builders  of  air- 
planes and  motors.  Additional  order  for 
machine  tools  are  sure  to  follow  the 
completion  of  the  Government's  plans  for 
the  enormous  fleet  of  airplanes.  It  is  pro- 
posed to  appropriate  $600,000,000  for 
this  purpose. 

Manufacturers  of  machine  tools  have 
again  advanced  prices  from  S""'    to  1.5^f. 
Prices    of    lathes    have    been    advanced 
12V, 9;   to  15'/r:   planers  10''..  and  radial 
drills    15'^'.      The    demand    is    especially 
active    for    heavy     forging     machinery. 
Boring   mills   have   been    advanced    10"''r, 
and   quite   often   orders   cannot  be  filled 
at  anv  nriee.     The  inabilitv  of  builders 
of  machine  tools  to  make  early  deliveries 
has    compelled    manv    manufacturers    to 
seek   for   second-hand   tools,   but   dealers 
find  un"snnl  diflicultv  in  obtaining  these. 
The    United    States    Government    has 
.iust  awarded   contracts  for  several  3.S0- 
ton   electric   cranes.      These   will   be   the 
lartrest  of  the  tvpe  that  have  ever  been 
built,  and  are  to  be  installed  at  various 
navy   yards.      The    Navy   Department   is 
also    actively    buving    machine    tools    to 
e^uip  the  manv  new  plants  on  the  Atlan- 
tic coast  for  which  contracts  have  been 
let.    The  Government  is  also  on  the  point 
of  closing  for  six  6-ton  Heroult  electric 
furnaces  as  it  is  claimed   that  only  the 
hich    grade    steel    necessary    for    special 
projectiles  can  be  manufactured   in  this 
tvne  of  furnace. 

Private  .ship  yards  holding  Government 
contracts  have  placed  substantial  orders 
for  travelling  and  locomotive  electric 
cranes.  Manufacturers  of  ordnance, 
power  and  steel  companies,  are  also  in- 
stalling cranes  and  placing  new  contracts, 
although  in  some  cases  deliveries  cannot 
be  made  inside  of  seven  months. 

Automobile  truck  manufacturers  in 
need  of  radial  drills,  planers  and  lathes. 
are  not  detcTed  from  placing  orders  bv 
the  sharp  advance  in  prices.  Liberal 
orders  for  shop  eniiinment  are  also  being 
placed  by  automobile  manufacturers  who 
have  turned  to  buildina:  aeroplane  motors 
and  engines.  Railroads,  after  being  out 
of  the  market  for  a  time,  are  now  actively 
placing  orders  for  .shop  equipment,  and

tractor  makers  are  steady  buyers  of  ma-

The  United  States  Government  is  as- 
suming direct  control  of  the  export  situa- 
tion and  is  reported  to  have  already  re- 
fused permits  for  machinery  shipments  to 
Sweden,  but  the  Washington  administra- 
tion is  disposed  to  act  conservatively  in 
this  respect.  England  and  France  are 
quietly  placing  orders  for  machine  tools 
for  prompt  delivery  and  will  be  accorded 
all  facilties  possible  to  make  speedy  pur- 
chases   and    shipments. 

All  of  the  United  States  steel  concerns, 
esneciallv  the  subsidiaries  of  the  United 
States  Steel  Corporation,  are  giving  pre- 
ference to  Government  work  and  some 
of  these  mills  are  taking  no  commercial 
orders  at  all.  It  is  estimated  that  thus 
far  the  army  and  navy  departments  have 
placed  miscellaneous  orders  for  about 
1.000,000  tons  of  steel,  of  which  40,000 
tons  are  for  construction  of  war  craft. 
At  the  moment  all  interest  is  centered  in

MARINE 

Quebec,  Que. — Quinlan  &  Robertson 
have  a  contract  for  the  construction  of 
four  steamers. 

Quebec,  Que. — To  encourage  shipbuild- 
ing the  civic  authorities  probably  will 
open  various  docks  near  Quebec,  in  addi- 
tion to  those  that  have  been  working  foi 
the  last  few  years  on  the  south  shore. 

Vancouver,  B.C. — The  auxiliary  schoon- 
er Laura  Whalen  will  shortly  sail  on  her 
maiden  trip.  She  has  on  board  1,551,401 
feet  of  B.  C.  lumber,  consigned  to  Port 
.Adelaide,  Australia,  and  Capt.  Hugh 
Docherty  will  go  out  in  command. 

Vancouver,  B.C. — The  call  of  the  Im- 
perial Munitions  Board  for  tenders  for 
125  winches  and  windlasses  has  been 
heard  and  tenders  are  being  filed  with 
the  Metal  Trades  Association.  A  com- 
mittee of  this  body  is  dealing  with  the 
Munitions  Board. 

Vancouver,  B.C. — The  schooner  Jessie 
Norcross,  now  fitting  out  at  North  Van- 
couver, is  to  leave  shortly  for  Genoa  Bay 
to  load  lumber  for  Port  Adelaide,  Aus- 
tralia, and  the  Janet  Carruthers  is  to  be 
launched  ne.xt  week  from  the  No.  2  Wal- 
lace Yards. 

Victoria,  B.C. — The  extension  of  the 
Cameron  Genoa  Mills  Shipbuilders'  plant 
is  being  made,  which  will  carry  the  boun- 
daries of  the  shipyard  to  a  point  on  the 
Songhees  Reserve  almost  meeting  the 
area  occupied  by  the  Foundation  Co.,  and 
preparations  will  soon  have  been  com- 
pleted for  the  laying  down  of  the  first 
keel  in  the  Government  ship  programme. 

St.  John,  N.B.— Grant  &  Home  have 
been  given  a  contract  by  the  Imperial 
Munitions  Board  to  build  two  wooden 
ships  at  their  new  yard  in  Erin  street. 
They  are  to  be  250  feet  long  with  4.3  V- 
feet  beam,  and  will  have  25  feet  depth 
of  hold.  The  speed  will  be  9%  knots  and 
the  boats  will  have  a  cargo  capacity  of 
practically  .3,000  tons.  The  engines  will 
be  supplied  by  the  Board. 

Charlottetown,  P.E.I. — It  is  expected 
that  by  next  August  the  car  ferry 
"Prince  Edward  Island"  will  start  run- 
ning between  Point  Borden,  Prince  Ed- 
ward Island,  and  Cape  Tormentine,  N. 
B.,  the  route  for  which  she  was  built. 
The  steamer  has  been  running  between 
Charlottetown  and  Pictou  and  George- 
town and  Pictou  for  the  past  two  years, 
as  the  docks  between  Tormentine  and 
Borden  were  not  ready. 


Vancouver,  B.C.  —  The  Vancouver 
Dredging  &  Salvage  Co.  are  working  on 
the  wreck  of  the  steamer  Eva  Marie, 
which  went  ashore  on  a  reef  near  Helm- 
eken  Island  on  June  8.  Owing  to  the 
helpless  position  of  the  craft,  it  has 
now  been  decided  to  salve  the  boilers  and 
engines  and  whatever  cargo  it  is  pos- 
sible to  reach.  To  do  this  it  will  be  ne- 
cessary to  cut  the  hull  open,  as  there  is 
no  hope  of  saving  the  steamer  in  her 
present  position. 

Port  Arthur,  Ont.— On  June  23,  the 
Port  Arthur  Shipbuilding  Co.  launched 
the  steamer,  Ugelstad,  which  has  been 
built  for  the  Great  Lakes  Transportatios 
Co.  It  is  understood  the  company  has 
already  disposed  of  it  to  Norwegian  cap- 
italists. Miss  Eva  Powley  of  Port 
Arthur  christened  the  boat  in  the  ortho- 
dox way.  The  boat  is  a  freighter  of 
canal  size,  261  feet  long,  43%  feet  beam 
with  a  depth  of  28  feet.  Her  carrying 
capacity  is  4,200  tons. 

Victoria,  B.C. — The  sixth  and  list  keel 
covered  by  the  contracts  at  present  held 
by  the  Cameron  Genoa  Mills  Shipbuild- 
ers, for  auxiliary  schooners,  was  laid 
down  on  June  23  on  the  ways  vacated  by 
the  schooner  Esquimalt,  which  was 
launched  on  the  night  of  June  13.  On 
the  completion  of  these  vessels,  the  com- 
pany will  thereafter  have  its  hands  full 
in  rushing  to  completion  the  four  wooden 
steamers  for  which  it  holds  contracts 
from  the  Imperial  Munitions  Board. 

Owen  Sound,  Ont — Word  was  brought 
here  a  few  days  ago  of  the  total  desti-uc- 
tion  by  fire  of  the  fisheries  patrol  motor 
boat  "Wawanna,"  which  took  place  at 
Fitzwilliam  Island,  in  the  channel  be- 
tween Georgian  Bay  and  Lake  Huron. 
The  "Wawanna"  was  formerly  a  pleasure 
cruising  vessel,  built  for  Henry  Manley, 
of  Meaford.  Her  steam  power  was  re- 
moved last  summer,  a  powerful  gasoline 
motor  installed  and  other  improvements 
were  made,  and  the  vessel  went  to  Lake 
Erie  to  go  an  patrol  service. 

Esquimau,  B.C. — The  contract  for  re- 
pairing the  C.P.R.  steamer  Princess 
Maquinna  which  struck  an  uncharted 
reef  of  Kyuquot  Sound,  has  been  award- 
ed to  Yarrows,  Ltd.  The  vessel  has  been 
hauled  out  on  the  ways  at  the  local  plant, 
where  a  survey  was  made.  It  is  expected 
that  three  weeks  will  elapse  before  the 
Maquinna  is  ready  for  service  again  as 
there  are  eleven  plates  to  be  removed, 
five  to  be  taken  off  and  fared  and  six 
to  be  fared  in  place,  in  addition  to  other 
work,  the  damage  being  quite  extensive. 

Port  Arthur,  Ont. — When  the  dredge 
Kinnequhair  leaves  the  Port  Arthur  drv 
dock  she  will  commence  a  6,000  mile 
journey,  which  will  not  be  comnleted  un- 
til Hudson's  Bay  is  reached.  The  vessel 
is  now  having  her  anchors,  cranes  and 
other  parts  removed  in  preparation  for 
the  trip.  The  dredge  was  purchased  this 
spring  by  the  Canadian  Government 
from  the  Canadian  Dredging  Co.,  and 
will  be  used  in  dredging  at  Port  Nelson. 
It  is  expected  the  vessel  will  be  at  least 
one  month  in  making  the  trip.  Capt.  W. 
M.  Bradley,  of  Fort  William,  will  be  in 
command. 


St.  John,  N.B.— B.  A.  Saker,  of  Mon- 
treal, before  the  Common  Council,  made 
his  proposal  for  the  establishment  of  a 
shipyard  on  the  Wanier  Mill  on  the 
river  front.  He  has  secured  the  mill 
property  with  a  thousand  feet  frontage 
on  the  river,  and  the  lease  of  the  adjoin- 
ing property.  He  said  that  it  was  his 
intention  to  spend  at  least  .?100,000  dur- 
ing the  first  year  in  establishing  yards 
capable  of  turning  out  three  wooden  ves- 
sels at  the  same  time.  When  materials 
are  available  agin,  he  intends  to  under- 
take the  construction  of  3,000-ton  tramp 
steamers,  which  would  require  an  addi- 
tional investment  of  $200,000. 


TRADE  GOSSIP 

The  Canadian  Furnace  Co.,  Port  Col- 
borne,  Ont.,  has  increased  its  capital 
stock  to  $1,-500,000. 

The  Deloro  Smelting  and  Refining  Co., 

have  opened  up  their  own  sales  offices  at 
315  Graig  St.  West,  Montreal,  with  B.

(Stellite)  of  this  firm  was  formerly 
handled  by  the  Canadian  B.  K.  Morton 
Co.  of  Montreal. 

Nova  Scotia  Steel  Output.— The  out- 
put of  the  Nova  Scotia  Steel  and  Coal 
Co.,  for  the  first  quarter  of  the  year 
was  as  follows: — Coal  mined,  146,525 
tons;  ore  mined,  12,177  tons,  limestone 
quarried,  21,074  tons;  coke  made,  25,545 
tons;  iron  made,  21,103  tons;  steel  in- 
gots made,  brushed  steel  and  forgings, 
28,598  tons. 

Tungsten  More  Active. — The  demand 
for  tungsten  in  the  primary  markets  has 
been  quite  active  recently  and  consider- 
able business  has  been  done  for  delivery 
during  the  balance  of  the  current  year. 
Beyond  this  producers  are  willing  to 
quote.  The  market  in  New  York  is 
strong  on  light  arrivals.  The  present 
market  is  equivalent  to  about  $2.25  per 
pound  tungsten. 

Shortage  of  Sextants. — Numerous  new 
vessels  building  in  the  United  States 
have  depleted  the  stock  of  chronometers 
and  sextants  and  with  Germany  not  fur- 
nishing them  as  before,  and  England  re- 
quiring those  manufactured  for  British 
ships,  it  has  been  asked  that  endeavors 
be  made  to  have  the  Navy  Department 
assist  in  relinquishing  extra  chronom- 
ete'-s  carried  on  vessels. 

British  Government  Extends  Embargo. 
— The  British  Government  has  prohibit- 
ed the  export  of  the  following  materials 
from  the  United  Kingdom:  Bobbins,  lac- 
tates, lactic  acid,  potassium  carbonate, 
ferro-manganese,  unrifled  firearms,  hob- 
nails, mica  block  and  splittings,  linseed 
oil,  motor  spirit,  turpentine  substitute, 
paraffin  and  petroleum,  mineral  lubri- 
cants, oil  fuel. 

U.  S.  Government  Control. — Extension 
of  American  Government  control  to 
iron  and  steel  and  their  products,  pe- 
troleum and  its  products,  farm  imple- 
ments and  sisal,  jute  and  hemp  pro-

Quickly    Attached 

Tliese  are  the  qualities  thnt  forced  the  leading 
safety  and  sanitary  enginteii;  to  pick  l^ura  m 
preference  to  all  othei-s. 

No  device  can  be  as  efficient  that  does  nol  con- 
tain all  these  qnalificalions;  and  Puro  was  not 
tied  for  fii-st  place;  Pino  was  first. 
Don't  be  satisfied  with  half-way  goodness,  or 
makeshift  drinking  aiiangements  for  your  em- 
ployees. 

If  the  mezi  in  your  factory  must  drink,  give 
them  a  clean  drink. 

Puro  is  clean— it  dues  not  rust  or  corrode. 
Puro  is  economical.  It  allows  just  the  proper 
amount  of  cool,  clean,  fresh  water  to  come 
through  the  bubbler.  No  spurting,  no  oveiilow- 
ing.  no  loss.  Puro  regulates  itself.  You  can 
attach   it  in   five  minutes.

Customs  Returns  Beat  All   Records. — • 

The  Dominion  customs  receipts  in  the 
first  three  months  of  the  fiscal  year, 
which  ended  on  Saturday,  eclipsed  all 
records  with  a  total  of  $46,680,203.  In 
the  corresponding:  period  it  was  $-35,431,- 
404,  or  an  increase  this  quarter  of  $11,- 
248,798.  June  revenue  was  in  keeping 
with  the  general  showing.  It  amounted 
to  $15,386,678,  compared  with  $12,030,- 
451,  an  increase  of  $3,536,226. 

The  National  Shipbuilding  Co..  Goder- 
ich,  Ont.,  is  just  completing  the  first  of 
the  marine  engines  which  it  has  con- 
tracted to  build  and  the  engine  will  be 
ready  for  shipment  shortly.  This  is  a 
500  horse  power  engine  and  weighs  about 
20  tons.  It  will  be  shipped  to  the  Cana- 
dian Vickers,  Montreal.  The  company 
has  contracts  for  some  larger  engines, 
which  will  be  about  1,400  h.p.  and  will 
weigh  110  tons.  These  .will  be  for  use 
in  wooden  vessels. 

Brandon,  Man. — Negotiations  have 
been  completed  for  the  sale  of  the  Bran- 
don Electric  Light  Go's,  plant,  properties 
and  business  to  the  Canada  Gas  and 
Electric  Corporation,  which  is  under- 
stood to  be  composed  of  a  number  of 
American  financiers.  The  purchase  price, 
it  is  said  by  Manager  Paterson,  is  ap- 
proximately one  million  dollars.  It  is 
the  intention  of  the  purchasing  company 
to  also  acquire  the  Brandon  Gas  Go's, 
plant  and  business  . 

Scarcity  of  Coal  in  Saskatchewan. — 
Thomas  M.  Molloy,  secretary  of  the  Gov- 
ernment Bureau  of  Labor,  states  that  the 
fuel  situation  in  Sasketchewan  is  serious, 
and  that  it  will  be  impossible  to  secure 
a  sufficient  supply  of  coal  to  meet  the  re- 
quirements of  this  province  during  the 
coming  winter,  even  if  all  the  AlbertT 
coal  mines  are  to  resume  operation  once. 
Citizens  are  advised  to  use  wood  in  the 
early  fall  months  and  at  all  other  times 
when  weather  conditions  permit. 

Stationary  Engineers  Meet. — At  the 
annual  meeting  of  the  Canadian  Associ- 
ation of  Stationary  Engineers  in  the  Tem- 
ple Bldg.,  Toronto,  the  following  officers 
were  elected:  President,  H.  Stevens;  vice- 
president,  S.  Bamfrith;  treasurer,  John 
Brown;  recording  secretary,  G.  F.  Moore; 
financial  secretary,  A.  M.  Wickens;  con- 
ductor, H.  Taylor;  door  keeper,  W.  Turn- 
er; delegates  to  the  annual  convention,  J. 
Brown  and  S.  Bamfrith;  Alternatives,  H. 
Stevens  and  T.  Pope.  The  convention 
will  be  held  in  Toronto  next  July. 

Restrict  Use  of  Tin. — An  announce- 
ment by  the  Commerce  Department, 
Wa.shington,  D.C.,  said  that  by  August  1, 
tin  plate  manufacturers  will  be  in  a  posi- 
tion to  furnish  can  makers  with  all  the 
tin  they  need.  All  supplies  of  tin  have 
been  cut  off"  from  users  for  containers 
of  varnish,  blacking,  paint,  talc,  soups, 
baked  beans  and  various  ready-to-eat 
foods,  so  that  the  tin  may  be  used  for 
cans  in  which  perishable  food  can  be 
packed.  No  releases  of  cans  to  packers 
of  non-perishable  products  will  be  made 


until  it  is  certain  that  the  supply  for 
perishables  is   ample. 

The  Winnipeg  Gear  &  Engineering  Co. 

— Makers  of  all  kinds  of  cut  gears,  and 
designers  and  builders  of  special  machin- 
ery, have  recently  doubled  their  floor 
space  at  197-199  Princess  Street,  Win- 
nipeg, Man.  They  expect  before  long 
to  occupy  the  whole  of  the  next  floor. 
Since  this  company  was  organized  less 
than  a  year  ago,  they  have  undergone 
considerable  expansion,  and  are  now  ex- 
tending along  new  lines  which  neces- 
sitates this  increased   floor  space. 

Reduction  in  Coal  Prices  in  the  U..S. — 

An  immediate  general  reduction  of  $1  to 
$1.50  a  ton  in  the  price  of  soft  coal  pt  the 
mines  was  agreed  upon  at  Washington 
on  June  28  by  representatives  of  the  coal 
operators  to  take  effect  on  July  1.  This 
reduction  is  expected  to  be  followed  by 
still  further  decrease  in  price  after  inves- 
tigation into  the  costs  of  mining  coal,  and 
it  is  probale  that  the  Government  will  be 
given  a  still  lower  price  than  that  to  the 
general  public.  About  600,000,000  tons 
of  coal  were  mined  in  the  United  States 
last  year. 

Vancouver,  B.C. — The  first  unit  of  the 
Pacific  Mills  plant  at  Ocean  Falls,  is  now 
in  operation  and  is  turning  out  75  tons  of 
news  print  daily.  By  the  end  of  the 
present  year  a  second  unit  with  a  capa- 
city of  120  tons  of  paper  is  expected  to 
be  in  operation,  and  the  daily  production 
will  then  reach  195  tons.  While  the  pres- 
ent program  of  development  ends  with 
the  starting  of  these  two  units,  it  is  re- 
garded as  probable  that  there  will  be  ex- 
tensions to  the  equipment  and  a  still 
further  increase  of  production  before 
very  long.  Meanwhile  the  plant  will  be 
worked  to  its  full  capacity. 

Canadian  Boats  in  Coastal  Trade. — 
The  United  States  coastwise  laws  have 
not  been  suspended,  but  arrangements 
have  been  made  whereby  Canadian  ves- 
sels can  trade  between  American  ports. 
This  is  a  war  measure,  and  the  plan, 
which  will  increase  vessel  capacity  on 
this  side,  will  probably  be  in  operation 
the  balance  of  the  season.  It  is  figured 
there  are  about  twelve  or  fifteen  Can- 
adian vessels  that  can  be  placed  in  Am- 
erican coastwise  trade  for  part  of  the 
season,  but  boats  of  that  class  have  some 
contracts,  and  they  will,  of  course,  car- 
ry grain  as  soon  as  the  fall  movement 
starts  at  the  Canadian  head  of  the  lakes. 

Quebec  Bridge  Progress. — It  is  under- 
stood that  the  new  Quebec  bridge  will  be 
ready  for  placing  in  position  some  time 
in  September.  Fabrication  has  been  al- 
most completed  at  the  works  of  the  St. 
Lawrence  Bridge  Co.  and  the  erection 
of  the  span  will  be  immediately  pro- 
ceeded with  at  the  old  location  at  Sillery 
Cove.  It  is  fully  expected  that  the  pro- 
cess of  raising  the  span  from  the  scows 
to  the  arms  of  the  cantilevers,  will  be 
along  similar  lines  as  that  adopted  last 
year,  but  additional  precautions  will  be 
made  for  the  safety  of  the  workmen. 

Nickel  in  Ontario. — Nickel  mining  is 
of  first  impoi'tance  in  Ontario.  In  1915 
the    nickel    contained   in    Sudbury   matte

CANADIAN    MACHINERY

amounted  to  34,039  tons,  valued  at  $17,- 
019,500.  In  1915  the  output  was  42,000 
tons,  worth  $21,000,000.  During  1916 
both  of  the  operating  companies,  the 
Canadian  Copper  Co.  and  the  Mond 
Nickel  Co.,  worked  to  their  fullest  capa- 
city their  mines  and  smelters  in  Ontario, 
as  well  as  their  refineries,  one  of  which  is 
in  New  Jersey,  the  other  in  Wales.  Other 
sources  of  nickel  in  Canada  are  the  nickel 
oxide  obtained  by  the  refineries  from  the 
ore  of  the  Cobalt  district  and  the  Alexo 
mine.  A  little  metallic  nickel  was  ob- 
tained elsewhere  during  the  year,  but  pro- 
duction was  relatively  unimportant. 

Many   Oppose    Freight    Advance. — The 
railways   found    solid    opposition    at    the 
hearings   before   the    Board   of    Railway 
Commissioners    held    at    Winnipeg    last 
week   for   the   purpose  of   considering   a 
proposed  freight  increase  of  15  per  cent., 
and  a  new  freight  classification.     Repre- 
sentatives of  every  important  industry  in 
Winnipeg   presented   evidence   of  a   con- 
vincing  character   against   the    increase. 
In  many  cases  the  proof  was  so  strong  as 
to  indicate  paralysis  of  business  in  cer- 
tain lines.     So  many  witnesses  had  to  be 
heard  on  the  subject  of  revising  the  de- 
murrage rules  and  on  the  re-classification 
plan  that  the  commission  was  not  able  to 
take  up  the  percentage  increase  asked  by 
the  roads.     It  was  shown  by  nearly  every 
industry  that  the  proposed  new  classifi- 
cation, in  itself,  was  an  increase  in  rates 
more  to  be  feared   than   the   percentage 
increase.     On  the  demurrage  question  all 
shippers    stood    firmly    for    an    equitable 
rate,  but  none  believed  the  $3  a  day  as  a 
starter  after  the  two  free  days  was  justi- 
fiable.      The     Canadian     Manufacturers' 
Association    approved    of    the    proposed 
increase   in   freight  rates.

ber 15.

The 

Businessman's  Mind 

BANKERS  are  supposed  to  have  a  particular  character  of  mind;  Lawyers 
and  Doctors  likewise ;  Teachers  also.  These  minds  have  both  narrow- 
ness and  breadth.  They  see  widely  and  deeply  in  their  own  realms, 
and  narrowly  and  sometimes  shallowly  in  regard  to  matters  outside  their 
particular  worlds.     At  least,  this  is  the  common  supposition. 

THE  Businessman  —  What  should  be  the  character  of  this  mind  ?  — 
What  is  the  mind  of  the  Manufacturer,  the  Wholesaler,  the  Retailer? 
Certainly  the  Businessman's  mind  should  be  broad.  It  should  be 
something  of  the  Banker's,  something  of  the  Financier's,  something  of  the 
Statesman's.  The  Businessman  should  see  broadly.  The  horizon  of  interest 
and  of  inquiry  for  him  should  be    a  far  one. 

The  liappy  thing  about  it  is  that  the  business  man — manufacturer, 
jobber,  retailer — can  have  the  far  outlook — this  by  the  reading 
each  week  of  a  newspaper  with  a  far  outlook — 

The  Financial  Post 

OF  CANADA 

This  is  a  business  man's  paper — it  is  a  paper  for  bankers,  for 
investors,  for  trustees,  for  financial  men.  But  it  is  also  a  news- 
paper for  merchants,  very  much  so. 

Mercliants  need  to  know  markets  and  market 
tendencies  and  market  factors.  They  need  to  know 
conditions,  local  and  remote.  They  need  information 
to  buy  right  and  to  sell  safely. 

And  the  knowledge  they  need  they  can  have  for  the 
insignificant  sum  of  $3  annually. 

THE  FINANCIAL  POST  is  a  most  readable  paper— positively 
enjoyable  to  the  layman  reader.  It  makes  any  man  broader 
minded,  and  every  business  man  a  better  business  man.  Growth

Let  the  Boss  Know  It! 


TF  you  are  a  reader  of  Canadian  Machinery, 
-*-  go  tell  your  employer  about  it  some  con- 
venient time!  You  couldn't  tell  the  up-to-date 
manufacturer  anything  that  would  please  him 
more.  He  would  know  that  you  are  abreast  of 
the  times;  that  you  are  ambitious  and  inter- 
ested in  your  work;  that  you  are  acquainted 
with  methods  and  machinery  which  make  for 
greater  efficiency.  He  will  say  softly  to  him- 
self: "Here  is  a  live  wire, — I'll  just  keep  my 
eye  on  that  chap." 

If  you  are  not  a  regular  reader  it  will  pay  you 
to  become  one  right  away — quick.

Each  Machine  Is: 

1.  Completely  Disassembled. 

Even  if  practically  new  they  are  com- 
pletely disassembled,  thoroughly 
cleaned,  flat  surfaces  tested  out  with 
straight  edges  or  surface  plates. 

2.  Flat    Surfaces    are   Hand    Scraped    to 
Brown  &   Sharpe  Surface  Plates. 

If  badly  worn  our  planer  outfit  can 
handle  up  to  very  large  surfaces  and 
then  they  are  scraped  to  Surface 
Plates. 

3.  Bearings  Re-Aligned. 

Cylindrical  bearings  are  where  neces- 
sary, renewed  and  then  aligned  by  the 
aid  of  precision  instruments. 

4.  Exterior  Refinished. 

The  old  enamel  is  scraped  off,  filler 
applied  and  rubbed  down,  bright  parts 
polished,  new  enamel  put  on  so  that 
the  machine  looks  like  new. 

5.  Adjustments  Made. 

Adjustments  are  carefully  made  under 
the  supervision  of  five  competent  fore- 
men and  an  expert  superintendent. 

6.  Tested  Under  Belt. 

Each  machine  is  tested  under  belt  both 
for  Operation  and  Accuracy  before  it 
leaves  our  plant  so  that  we  are  confi- 
dent that  it  is  ready  to  go  to  work 
when  you  get  it. 

7.  Covered  By  Our  Broad  Guarantee. 
You  may  choose  a  machine  not  suited  to 
your  work  or  your  work  may  chaage 
after  receiving  the  machine.  Again  we 
may  list  a  machine  incorrectly  or  some- 
thing may  have  been  "put  over"  our 
shop  inspectors.  Therefore,  for  your 
protection  we  give  just  one  guarantee 
which  covers  everything,  your  mistake 
or  ours,  i.e. — if  a  machine  is  not  suited 
for  your  work,  if  it  disappoints  you  in  any 
way  send  it  back  within  thirty  days  from 
date  of  shipment,  freight  prepaid,  and  we 
will  cheerfully  refund  your  purchase  price

It's  getting  near  four  o'clock.  The 
demand  for  power  is  a  trifle  heavier  than 
usual.  The  peak  is  coming.  The  sockets 
click  one  after  another  in  a  .steady  stream. 
The  demand  for  .steam  is  going  up,  up,  up.

will  keep  steam  up.  It  supplies  all  the  draft 
you  vi'ant  and  just  when  you  want  it. 
When  you  buy  a  blower  be  sure  it's  a  Sturte- 
vant.  The  Sturtevant  name  is  a  guarantee  of 
mechanical  excellence — a  guarantee  that  you 
will  have  no  breakdown  and  no  bearing  trouble. 
The  Sturtevant  Set  has  generous  bearings  with 
oil  rings  and  large  reservoirs.  One  filling  will 
last  for  weeks. 

To  prevent  the  escape  of  steam  from  the  casing 
there  is  a  floating  stuffing  box.  If  for  any  rea- 
son through  neglect  or  carelessness  this  is  al- 
lowed to  leak,  there  is  a  special  "water-throw" 
collar  which  makes  it  impossible  for  steam  to 
enter  the  bearings.  Furthermore,  the  floating 
stufling  box  makes  it  possible  to  exhaust 
against  back  pressures  as  high  as  25  pounds. 
If  you  have  trouble  getting  enough  steam  or 
keeping  the  needle  where  it  belongs,  write  us 
for  bulletin  No.  214-U.

The   Growth   of   Oxy-Acetylene    Welding 

and  Cutting  and  the  Increasing  Demand 

for  Davis-Bournonville  Apparatus 


A  Year  Ago  we  said — 


"The  growth  of  Oxy-Acetylene  Welding  and  Cutting  in  tlie  United  States  is 
.-•hown  by  the  inereasing  use  of  Davi.^-T'.ournonville  apparatus,  which  is  in- 
separably associated  with  the  development  and  success  of  the  oxy-acetylene 
industry  in  this  country. 

"Ten  years  ago  the  process  was  unknown  in  the  United  States.  To-day  it  forms 
one  of  the  great  industries  of  the  cnnntry.  with  its  requirements  for  acetylene, 
oxygen  and  efficient  apparatus. 

"The  Davis-Bournonville  Company  oljtained  the  United  States  patents  for  the 
independent  positive-pressure  type  of  welding  torch  (mixing  the  gases-  in  an 
interchangeable  tip  or  nozzle)  in  1906 — basic  principles  which  have  been 
retained  in  the  D-B  torch  because  of  their  proven  superiority  through  ten  years 
of  development,  improvement  and  the  most  .successful  operation. 

"There  is  more  Davis-Bournonville  welding  and  cutting  apparatus  in  successful  use  in 
the  United  States  than  of  any  other  make,  and  the  prominent  concerns  which  have 
established  the  greatest  success  with  this  process  have  large  installations  of  D-B 
apparatus,  with  from  ten  to  one  hundred  or  more  torch  units,  and  from  one  to  six  of 
tlae  largest  acetylene  generators." 

/  OCfflV"^ The  increasing  use  of  the  oxy-acetylene  process  for  welding  and  cutting  and  of  Davis- 
Bournonville  apparatus  are  parallel  and  are  graphically  shown  by  the  sales  of  "Davis

TATE-JONES    Circular    Semi -Muffle     Furnaces,     as     illustrated 
above,  have  been  widely  adopted  by  shrapnel  makers  because  of 
their  rapidity,  uniformity  and  convenience  of  operation. 

Proper  heating  is  easily  and  safely  accomplished  in  furnaces  of  this  type. 


There  are  numerous  complex  prob- 
lems met  in  the  manufacture  of  heat- 
treating  furnaces — but  years  of  ex- 
perience, scientific  research,  unlimit- 
ed tests  and  intimate  association  with 
all  manner  of  heat-treating  proces- 
ses have  enabled  us  to  cope  success- 
fully with  all  difficulties.  When  you 
get  a  Tate-Jones  Furnace  you  can 


rest  assured  that  you  are  getting  a 
furnace  that  will  turn  out  work  fast 
and  efficiently. 

Before  placing  your  next  order  for 
furnaces  for  Annealing,  Hardening, 
Tempering,  etc.,  it  will  pay  you  to 
make  the  most  minute  inspection  of 
the  Tate-Jones  line  and  compare  it

Less  Friction 
with 

?  Chapman 

Double  Ball  Bearings 

A  factor  of  well  recog-nized  importance  in  a  shaft  hanger  is  Power  Cost. 

Power  cost  goes   up  with   increased  friction.     Friction   in   a  well   designed   ball 

bearing  is  far  less  than  in  a  sliding  bearing.     Then  since  Chapman  Double  Ball 

Bearings  are  designed  solely  for  transmission  purposes,  users  save  7.5%  of  friction 

loss  in  transmitting  power. 

Use  of  Chapman  Ball  Bearings  means  a  saving  in  oil,  a  saving  in  labor  of  oiling 

and  general  attention  required  in  Babbitted  shaftings — and  they  are  thoroughly 

dust-proof.

LEATHER  BELTING 

Tanned  by  us  for  belting  use 


Are  you  trying  to  drive  Pulleys  with 
a  Belting  Specification? 

How  often  does  a  beltiii,^'  specitictitioii  get  you  the  kind  of  ])elts  you 
really  should  have?  Do  the  belts  you  get  agree  with  the  specification.^ 
How  many  men  iii  y(  lur  plant  could  tell  ?    Could  you? 

The  only  specification  the  Itelt  buyer  should  atteiniit  to  make  is  a  specificatiim  of  tlie 
work  to  be  done.  Because  to  iiet  the  work  done  most  etticiently  and  econoniically  is  the 
I  uly  possible  reason  for  any  kind  of  a  speciticatinn  ahotit  anythinii'. 

Graton  it  Knight  offer  you  this  practical  soecitication — the  work  to  be  d(»ne.  To  do 
the  work  properly  in  every  case  is  the  basic  idea  underlying  the  Graton  it  Knight  Stand- 
ardized If^eries  Leather  Bellas. 

This  Series  was  evolved  to  Ht  the  working  needs  of 
actual  conditions,  not  to  meet  theoretical  conditions  as 
described  on  paper.  Every  belt  in  this  Series — and  there 
is  one  for  every  transmission  purpose — has  been  standard- 
ized only  after  it  has  been  proved  right. 

Face  these  facts  squarely — then  consider  the  safety.

The  Value  of  a  Clean- 
^5      Cut  Layout 

Unless  work  is  laid  out  accurately  at  the  start, 
many  difficulties  will  arise  as  the  joli  progresses. 

A  confusion  of  faint  lines  may  mean  lost 
time  and  perhaps  throwing  away  a  valuable 
piece  of  metal. 

It  is  important  then  that  the  lines  be  dis- 
tinguished quickly,  no  matter  how  much  they 
crisscross.     The  clean-cut  lines  made  with  a 

Starrcff 

Surface  Gage 

will  greatly  aid  machinists  in  preparing  a  clean 
layout  on  which  work  can  be  done  accurately. 
This  useful-  instrument  may  be  used  to  scribe 
on  all  kinds  of  surfaces  and  is  very  handy  for 
transferring  measurements  for  duplicating 
work.

are  made  from  steel  forgings  and  are  larger  in 
diameter  and  stronger  than  on  any  other  presses 
of  corresponding  size.    Why?    Because 

1  he  connection  screws  have  to  withstand  all  the 
pressure  applied  on  the  dies.  We  use  only  one- 
piece  forgings,  and  in  calculating  the  size,  use  a 
very  high  factor  of  safety. 

A  Press  is  only  as  strong  as  its  weakest  point.  The

It  insures  a  good  supply  of  pure  oil 
being  kept  ready  for  use  at  all  times, 
and  jirevents  break-down.*  due  to  faulty 
lul)rication. 

The  oil  is  protected  from  dust,  dirt 
and  deterioration,  and  retains  all  its 
properties  as  a  hibricant. 

The  Bowser  System  saves  unnecessary 
labor.  It  can  lie  placed  where  most 
ea.<ilv  accessible. 


It  can  be  u.sed  either  in  battery  for- 
mation or  each  individual  outfit  placed 
where  most  convenient. 

It  prevents  wa.ste  due  to  dripping, 
over-filled  cans  and  careless  handling. 

It  eliminates  oil-soaked  floors  and  the 
"fire  hazard" — fire  interrupts  income 
and  progress. 

It  makes  every  shop  abetter,  cleaner 
place  in  which  to  work. 

There  is  a  Bowser  built  for  every  oil 
storage  requirement,  any  capacity,  hand 
or  power  operated.

Have  You 

Investigated 

Flint  Shotting  of 

MUNITIONS? 


"Every  Grain  Like  a  Pearl" 


Flint  Shotting  is  sa//^  blasting  with  a  college  education. 

It  is    doing,  in    a    highly    efficient    way,   work  that  is 
commonly  done  by-guess  and  by-gad. 


Because  Flint  Shot  is  not 
an  accidental  aggregation 
of  sand  grains  of  various 
kinds,  sizes  and  hardnesses, 
but  a  collection  of  highly 
uniform,  pearl-like  nodules 
o{  pure  flinty  secured  by  the 
mechanical  disintegration  of 
St.  Peter's  Rock. 


Even  common  sand 
blasting  has  advantages 
over  older  forms  of  clean- 
ing brass,  iron  and  steel 
castings,  forgings,  etc.,  that 
you  should  know  about. 

But  Flint  Shotting  multi- 
plies these  advantages. 


We  have  accumulated  a  mass  of  interest- 
ing data  on  the  sand  blasting  of  metal  sur- 
faces and  may  have  information  that  will 
speed  up  your  output,  decrease  your  cost, 
and  improve  the  character  of  the  finish  of 
your  products. 

When  you  send  for  our  Flint  Shot  Booklet, 
tell  us  something  about  your  products  and  how 
you  clean  them.

The  Reason 
For  So  Many  Repeat  Orders 

after  comparative  testa  ia  that  no  magnifying  glass  is  necMsary  to 
distinguish  the  increased  prodnction  and  the  better  class  of  work  on 
the    PEERLESS    High-Speed    Cutting-off    Saw. 

A  third  order  just  came  in  from  one  of  the  largest  concerns  in  the 
United  States,  and  is  it  not  a  fact  after  a  fii-m  has  standardized  on 
a  certain  make  of  tool  that  some  real  results  must  be  produced  in 
order   to   effect   a   change? 

One  of  our  customers  writes:  "It  takes  us  only  l-15th  of  the  time  to 
cut   our  stock   on    the   PEERLESS   that  it  did  on   our  other   machine." 

If  you  are  open  to  conviction  we  have  a  proposition  to  offer  that

GRINDING  BASE 
OF  18-pr.  SHELL 


This  No.  14  Double  Disc  Grinder  is  used  for  accurately  sizing  the  bases  of  these 
shells  after  heat  treating.  The  shell  is  held  in  a  suitable  fixture,  which  allows  it 
to  be  revolved  slowly  between  the  discs  which  grind  the  diameter  to  within  3.28 
and  3.29  inches. 

The  quality  and  finish  of  the  work  is 
perfect,  and  steady  production  can  be 
maintained  at  an  average  rate  of  5  per 
minute. 

The  discs  are  faced  with  abrasive  at 
the  outer  part  only,  where  the  work  is 
done. 


All  that  is  best  in  material  and  work- 
manship goes  into  Gardner  Grinders. 
They  last  long,  do  the  work  as  it 
should  be  done,  and  do  it  economic- 
ally.

STANDARDIZED 

CUTTING 

QUALITIES 

Since  the  one  purpose  of  a 
file  is  to  cut,  the  toughness, 
regularity  and  sharpness  of 
the  teeth  are  all  important. 

A  capable  mechanic  can 
positively  '*feel"  these 
qualities  in  a  '*  Famous 
Five"  file. 

The  sharp,  keen-edged  teeth  ar- 
ranged in  uniform  rows — plus  the 
even  balance — tells  him  at  once  the 
file  is  a  good  serviceable  tool. 

It  is  these  qualities  that  have  made 
"Famous  Five"  Files  Standard 
Grade  tools  everywhere. 

Specify  them  when  ordering.

The  Diamo-Carbo  Dresser  is  being  very  generally  adopted 
as  a  substitute  for  the  expensive  diamonds.  Diamonds  are 
becoming  more  scarce  and  quality  is  deteriorating.  The  quality 
of  the  Diamo-Carbo  is  uniform  al\d  in  most  places  will  do 
tlie  same  work  as  a  diamond.     They  can  be  tried  at  our  expense. 

The  Desmond  Huntington  No.  2  is  the  best  dresser  ever 
devised    for   use   on    large   and   coarse   wheels. 

We  can  make  prompt  deliveries  of  any  type  of  Dresser 
desired.

This  is  <»iie  of  the  many  jobs  where  the  DUMORE  comes  in  handy  in  a  Tool

perfect  alignment.    The

is  the  ideal  tool  iVir  iiriiidiiip;  die.-;,  gauges  and  .similar  work  where  extreme  accuracy  is  necessary. 
Used  in  hundreds  of  machine  and  repair  shops  for  all  kinds  of  grinding  joh.s.  Majiufacturers 
regard  them  iis  indisjiensable  for  handling  the  many  diHicult.  hard-to-get-at  johs  that  continually 
arise.    They  will  be  the  mo.st  popular  tools  in  your  shop. 

The  high  speed  at  which  DUMORE  Grinders  operate— 10,000  R.P.M.  and  .30,000  R.P.M.— gives  the 
correct  surface  speed  to  wheels  of  very  small  diam  eter.  This  prevents  the  wheels  from  breaking  down 
and  your  work  will  be  ground  accurately  and  will  be    entirely  free  from  bell  mouth. 

Equipment  A  as  shown  below  includes  the  Internal  Attachment  A  which 
operates  at  a  speed  of  30,000  R.P.M.  Equipment  B  includes  the  Extension  Arm 
B  which  has  a  reach  of  10"  and  which  will  be  found  very  useful  for  deep  internal 
work.  It  is  interchangeable  with  the  Internal  Attachment  A.

Air  Chuck 


If  your  work  re- 
quires quick  hand- 
ling and  a  rigid-slip 
grip,  the  chuck  for 
the  job  is  the 
"Hannifin"  —  in-

from  20  to  1 00  per 
cent.

At  the  Woi'thingtoii  Pump  and  Macliiner.y  Corpora- 
tion's Hazelton,  Pa.,  plant,  Hannifin  Air  Chucks  are 
in  sole  possession  of  the  field.  The  machine  photo- 
graphed shows  a  3"  Russian  shell  Hannifin-chucked 
for  inside  operations. 

These  chucks  do  their  work  under  75  pounds  air  pres- 
sure and  "Aid  greatly  in  speeding  up  pioduction," 
says  the  master  mechanic;  for  outside  turning,  shells 
are  held  on  Haimifin  Air  Operated  Mandrels  with 
similar  results. 

In  another  busy  shell  department  one  operator  reports 
an  increase  of  ten  5"  shells  per  day  through  the  change 
to  Hannifin  Chucking,  and  considerably  less  fatigue 
when  the  day's  work  is  done. 

Hannifin  Chucks  are  doing  important  work  on  every 
shell  making  "front" — also  in  other  lines  of  manu- 
facture.

Operated  Without  Wrench 

While  in  Motion 


A  Wren  chiefs  Chuck  is  not  an  im- 
pnivement  on  other  methods.  It 
is  a  decided  departure  in  the 
manufacture  of  chuck.«  that  great- 
ly decreases  the  operating  time,  in- 
creases production  and  can  be  de- 
pended upon  at  all  times. 
Simple  in  operation.  Can  be  ad- 
ju.~ted  a.s  quickly  as  a  face  plate. 
Strong  and  sturdy. 
The  operating  mechanism  is  in 
the  form  of  a  planetary  gear,  en- 
closed within  a  casing  which  is 
carried    and    held   central   bv   the 


hub  of  the  chuck.  It  is  kept  from 
rotating  by  means  of  a  U-bar 
straddling  the  headstock. 

In  transmitting  the  movement 
from  the  cam  to  the  jaws  a  lever- 
age principle  is  involved  which 
has  as  its  object  the  elimination 
of  the  tremendous  friction  loss 
that  is  inherent  in  chucks  where 
scrolls  or  .similar  wedging  mem- 
liers  are  used.

Volume   XVllI. 


Mac  Lean's  Magazine 

FOR  JULY 

The  Smugglers  were  Caught 

THE  true  and  complete  story  of  a  huge  smuggling  conspiracy  which  robbed  the  Canadian  and 
United  States  Customs  Departments  o"f  hundreds  of  thousands  of  dollars,  and  which  was  finally 
exposed  by  a  Canadian  Customs  officer,  is  well  told  in  the  July  MACLEAN'S.  The  parties  con- 
cerned settled  by  handing  over  a  huge  check  to  the  Canadian  Government  and  not  a  word  of  the  story 
has  ever  before  been  in  print.  The  man  who  writes  the  article,  J.  D.  Ronald,  was  personally  concerned 
in  the  investigation,  and  he  tells  the  whole  case  from  first  to  last,  merely  changing  the  names  of  some  of 
the  central  figures.    This  is  one  of  the  most  striking  special  features  that  MACLEAN'S  has  ever  had. 

Confederation 

the  dominant  theme  of  July  MACLEAN'S 


THE  Jubilee  of  Confederation  has 
led  the  Editor  to  make  the  July 
MACLEAN'S  retrospective  and  in- 
terpretive of  Confederation  in  the  char- 
acter of  its  main  contents — this  to  meet 
the  certain  need  and  desire  of  the 
Canadian  people.  Note  the  fine  pro- 
vision of  special  Confederation  article 
and    features  :

B>  C.  H.  Mackintosh,  former  Lieu-

AFTERWARDS."

HIGH  SPEED  DRILLS 


CELFOR  Drills  are  made  for  tough, 
heavy  work.  They  are  remarkable  for 
the  amount  of  work  they  can  do  in  a  short 
time. 

They  are  twisted  from  the  solid  bar.  We  do 
not  break  the  grain  of  the  steel  by  milling — 
and  the  result  is  they  retain  their  strength 
and  hold  their  edges  for  a  long  period. 

We  have  a  good  stock  of  sizes  and  can  make 
IMMEDIATE  DELIVERY. 

Write  for  catalogue.    No  obligation 
incurred.

PRACTICALITY 

AFTER  fifteen  years'  study 
of  the  Miner's  and  Lum- 
berman's wants,  we  know  just 
what  is  and  what  is  not  re- 
quired in  tools  for  them. 

Practicality  has  been  the  key- 
note of  our  organization.  Ex- 
perience has  aided  us  in  elim- 
inating all  unnecessary  parts 
and  in  perfecting  the  design 
of  our  tools. 

The  use  of  best  material  and 
finest  workmanship  enable  us 
to  manufacture  tools  that  are 
unexcelled. 

We  make  a  complete  line.

and    read    what 
we  have  to  say 
below 


WHEN  a  tap  breaks  off  close  or  below 
the  surface,  you'll  find  this  Walton 
Tap  Extractor  will  save  a  great  deal 
of  time  and  trouble.  The  crucible  fingers 
grasp  the  flutes  of  the  tap,  a  twist  of  the 
wrench  and  the  piece  is  out. 

Don't  you  think  it  would  pay  to  have  a  few 
lying  around  on  your  benches?
