Last Year's Annual
Number contained
432 pages — over
350 advertisers.
AS our Annual Re\iew and
-^~^ Directory Number will be even
larger than last year's record-breaker
forms must close earlier than on
former Annual Numbers.
Many firms already have received proofs of
their advertisements and some have gone to
press. Do not procrastinate. Send in your space
reservation, copy for your advertisement, the
necessary cuts and a list of principal headings
under which you would like to be classified.
Kindly send cuts by mail. Many advertisers
were left out of last year's Annual Number
simply because cuts were not received in time.
From a buyers' standpoint our 1918 Annual
Number will be the most complete and valuable
directory ever placed in their hands. It will be
issued just at the commencement of a period of
very heavy buying and will naturally influence
a tremendous volume of business.

4,000 TON STEAM HYDRAULIC FORGING PRESS FOR MARINE AND OTHER HEAVY FORCINGS.
The product of a modem steam-hydraulic press is dens er and more homogeneous than can be obtained with the steam
hammer, due to the effect of the blow of the latter not penetrating to the centre, in contradistinction to the uniform knead-
ing effect of the press; while the amount of work that can be done by the latter at one time with little variation in tem-
perature, strongly tends toward a better product. The greater uniformity and reliability of steam hydraulic forgings
make their use imperative wherever high-class products are required.

Y
OU couldn't imagine a more
sturdy, compact, serviceable ma-
chine than this! A glance at the
illustration Avill show jou for yourself.
It has been used in Canadian munition
plants since the munition business
started, and is still giving absolute sat-
isfaction. It's the machine you need if
you make shells.
Look over the following outstanding
features of its construction:
Integral (en bloc) construction assures
j)erfect rigidity, permanent accuracy
and desirable compactness.
Cliuckiug with spring collet chuck in-
sures accurate and speedy checking.
Graduated feed dial, two cutting tools,
and ample belt power insure output of
accurate work in least possible time.
Machines are built for 15, 18, 60-pdr.
and 6" shells.

are still doing
duty.

The \Vliitc(iinl)-Blaisdell Widened Planei" has been develop-
ed to till this need. Not a makeshift, bnilt over from the
standard size; but thorongh and eomjilete in design.
For instance the nsnal practice is to widen the bed and
table without spreading the tracks thus causing overhang
to the table. Whitcomb-Blaisdell design, however, widens
the tracks as well. This is typical of Whitcond)-Blaisdell
construction throughout. Every detail for ])roduction is
built int(( these planers.

A CASE OF NO CHOICE
WIIP]N you buy a lathe — milling machine — or what not — ■
VdU have a wide ticld with which t(» ac(Hiaiiit yourself.
One lathe is l)est for small work, another for largX'. This niillei-
possesses an exclusive feature rendering- it most efficient for one
purpose, that one for another. And so on.
To buy intelligently you must be familiar with the individual
eharaeteristies of a considerable mnnber of similar machines.
The selection of i'(iui])ment for the comm(»n run of chucked work
- — whether castings, foi'gings, or second-opei'ation l)ar work — is
rendered easv bv reason of the fact that there is one machine
which stands'ont" above all others, with a 30(V; to 500'^^ production
advantage.

LEATHER BELTING
^^^^n^T
V
^■t^i
iiJU^C^
:ri--^i
A Belting Catechism
Ultal arr (lio A(l\ milages of l.tather as belting?
Leather is the staiitliird belting material. When properly tan-
ned for belting its surface will grip the pulley in the most
effective manner. Gooil leather belting is economical ami
reliable, it will tran.Kmit power with 98'''^ efficiency.
How can leather belting be made uniform?
The manufacturer mu.«t lir.-it set up definite standards of
quality and strictly adhere to them. As he cannot secure
belting leather in the open market of uniform tiuality, he
must tan his own hides. He must tan them in sufficient
quantity to en.ible him to select for each belt, pieces up to
his standard. These pieces must be uniform in weight, stretch.
texture, and quality.
Why should belts be rigidly graded?
.-^ belt is no stronger than its poorest part. The i|uality o(
leather varies, and unless each belt is carefully graded, dis-
similar qualities get into the same belt. Rigid grading js
uniformity. Grading should be done by expert judges of belt
leather quality, according to fixed standards.
\\ hy is there such confusion in leather belting grades?
Because many belt makers have not stanilardized their belts,
but give the buyer any kind of belt he demands. The result
is chaotic.
What is Standardized Leather Belting?
Simply belting that is standardized to meet the needs of the
different classes of power transmission — instead of being made
to meet theoretical specifications. Transmission re(iuirements
can be classified into a comparatively few groups, and there
is a standardized belt to fit each one. Standardization can
be applied to belting just as to any other type of machine
part or product. It is common sense in belting. ^
How does Standardized Leather Belting help the belt buyer?
It insures the selection of the proper belt required to speed
up machines, to maintain production, to reduce operating ex-
penses, which cannot be accomplished unless the belt user
gets the maximum power through his belts. Standardized
leather belting effects this for him and enables him to know
that he is getting the right brand for highest efficiency and
greatest economy maximum service from every belt and
every drive.
How does it work?
Let a Graton & Knight representative make an analysis of
your belting requirements. Then get the standardized belt
for your work, ordering your belting by work to be done
rather than by specification. There is no obligation — there
may be a great saving for you.

Canada Stove 8 Foundry Coy.
Plant and Product m
iV^lo ^Laurent, Moni^l
Times hk,- the present have produced many contrasts, and few indeed are the factories
whose prodiicl.s are not contrilnitori/ to the arts of both peace and war. That the greater
portion of this plant's activlti/ s]iouId he devoted to developing the manufacture of peace-time
products is a pleas-ing feature at this time. linviiKj in vicir the economic necessity of main-
taining stapli lines of indiisfni in active rcaili nexs for the return of peace.
RAPID development of plants has
been a notable feature of manufac-
turing activities throujihout the
Dominion durinir the past three years,
but with few exceptions such expansion
has resulted from the urgency of war
requirements — directly or indirectly —
rather than a marl<ed extension in staple
manufacturing-. Domestic enterprise,
even on a normal basis, has suffered ex-
tensively through the high cost of raw
materials and the difficulty of obtaining
such, except under restricted conditions.
One of the few exceptions to these con-
ditions is the plant of the Canada Stove
and Foundry Company, Ltd., Ville St.
Laurent, near Montreal. This company
was incorporated in May, 1916, as suc-
cessors to the Canadi Stove and Furni-
ture Company, the latter having- been or-
g a n i z e d in 1905.
Steady pro,arress was
made by that com-
pany until 1913, by
which time the out-
put had attained
comparatively large
dimensions, and the
factory occupied a
floor space of 50,000
sq. ft. The rapid
growth of the busi-
ness, however, dur-
ing the next three
years' necessitated
the bixilding of ex-
tensive additions, and
in the summer of
1916 the two storey
mounting room, the
warehouse and foun-
dry were extended;
later in the same
year a four-storey
building was erected
for the manufacture
of shells, and a stor-
age warehouse.
An entirely new
departure was decided on at this
time, viz., that of enr.melling sheet
steel goods and cast iron hollow
ware, and a suitible building was
erected for this pu.poe on the prop-
erty facing the main offices; these latter
also being remodeled darin':r the same
period. The present floor space avail-
able for manufacturing purposes is about
200,000 sq. ft., and together with the ad-
joining property covers an area of 10
^cres. The plant is ideally situated, be-
ing located about 7 miles from the city
of Montreal, and adjacent to the main
line of the G.T.R,, with spur connections
to both the C.P.R. and the C.N.R.
Foundry
The foundry has a length of 300 ft.
and a width of 150 ft. and with the ex-
VIEW IN ONE OF THE FOUR BAYS OF THE FOUNDRY
ception of a small section used for heavy
pit work, the floor is constructed of con-
crete, this being considered an efficiency
feature where light work predominates.
The greater volume of work is connect-
ed with the manufacture of stoves and
ranges, but considerable jobbing is also
done; facilities having been installed to
handle individual castings of about 3
tons in weight. A 66 in. Whiting cupola,
with a capacity of over 30 tons per day,
is located in a wing about midway of
the shop length; a Piqua pressure blow-
er being installed to supply the neces-
sary blast. For small plate-moulding
work, 50 lb. ladles are provided, and for
the larger work several ladles ranging
from 200 lbs. to about 4,000 lbs. are em-
ployed, these latter being transported
about the shop by a
monorail system,
louring is continu-
ous for about three
hours each day.
The bulk of the
light work is per-
formed in moulding
machines; the equip-
ment consisting of 2
Pridmore rockover
machines, 3 Arcades,
2 Webb and 3 Daven-
port power air
squeezers, and 2
Adam's hand
squeezers. For the
bakiiig of cores there
has been installed
one large Whiting
and four small Mil-
lett core ovens. The
foundry is well light-
ed, and heated by a
forced hot air sys-
tem with overhead
piping, installed by
the Canadian Sirocco
Co. The remainder

a special vertical inside grinding ma
chine for work on stove parts; and a
number of smaller tools such as foot
shears, harnd folders, and presses, to-
gether with all the other necessary shop
equipment for the rapid and economic
production of sheet metal operations.
One section of the second floor is set
apart for the nickeling of the numerous
ornamental parts now found on nearly
every make of cast iron or steel range
or heater.
Nickeling and Polishing
The nickeling equipment is of the most
modern type, a prominent feature being a
Hanson and Van Winkle dynamo of 1,000
ampere capacity; all wiring is contained
in conduits throughout. The polishing
room, adjoining the nickeling depart-
ment, contains 10 Hanson and Van
Winkle polishing machines, driven from
:t shaft located below the floor; each ma-
chine is fitted with an exhaust head, and
a Sheldon fan is employed to remove the

dust from these machines. The blacking
of the different cast iron stove parts i.>
also performed on this floor, as is the
wrapping and crating before going to the
.-hipping department.
Gas Stove Mounting
The entire third floor is reserved for
the gas stove department; one section is
provided with the necessary pipe thread-
ing machines, presses and drills re-
quired for the diff'ercnt parts and the
main portion of the room is used for ths
mounting of the various makes of stoves.
An interesting fjature in connection
with this department is the drilling of
the small holes in the various gas burn-
ers by means of multiple drill heads, as
many as 72 holes being drilled in one
type of burner at a sdngle setting. The
presses and multiple drill heads were
supplied by the Michigan Press Co. of
Ypsilanti.
All finished material for all makes of
gas stoves is kept on this floor, the op-
eration of this department being gov-
erned by the checking system already
referred to. Four concentration points
on this floor govern the supply and dis-
tribution of all material — the sheet metal
stock room, the rough castings depart-
ment, the general stores department, and
the finished material stores. Daily re-
cords are kept of stock and orders so as
to avoid the possibility of misunder-
standing between the heads of the dif-
ferent departments.
The average output of stoves, ranges
and heaters is about 100 per day, while
the number of gas stoves turned out each
day ranges from .50 to 7.5. The japanninj;
room is equipped with an oil burning
oven, maintained at a heat of about 3.50
deg. F. The interior of many of the gas
stove ovens are given a coat of alum-
inum, sprayed on.
Like most of the large metal working
establishments in Canada, this plant has
been engaged in the manufacture of
shells, having been working on the 4..5 in.
size for upwards of two years. The out
put to date has been upwards of 250,000
shells.

\IE\V OK PART OK THE GAS STOVE MOUNTING DEPARTMENT,
Enamelling Department
The art of enamelling, or the fusion of
(luartz and chemical compounds to form
a hard vitreous surface on metallic ob-
jects, either for the purpose of decora-
tion or utility, is ja'adually assuming in-
creased importance in the industrial de-
velopments of the country. Additional
enterprise in this direction is the most
recent departure of this firm.
The enamelling' plant, located directly
opposite the main offices, is of brick con-
struction, 120 ft. by 60 ft., and is of single
floor construction, with the exception
of the front section of two floors, the
upper one being used for chemical stor-
age and decalcomania work. The ground
floor is divided into three sections — one
containing the smelting furnace and the
grinding mills, a pickling department,
containing acid baths for cleaning the
sheet steel articles, and also a steam
heated drying kiln, while the greater
portion of the ground floor is reserved
for the actual operations of enamelling
the work.
Three oil-fired furnaces are installed,
two being adapted for sheet work, while
the third and largest is constructed to
, handle cast iron hollow ware. Of the
two former, one is open hearth and the
other muffled type. The fuel is kept in
a 800-gal. tank adjacent to the building,
and is supplied from the main 10,000-
gal. reservoir provided for the opera-
tions of the furnaces in the shell ma-
chining department. Oil is delivered to
the burners by means of a small centri-
fugal pump, and air for blast and com-
bustion is supplied at a pressure of
about 70 lbs. per sq. in. The other equip-
ment of the shop consists of the various
receptacles for holding the solutions and
the necessary facilities for handling and
transporting the work to and from the
kilns and furnaces.
Preparing the I'^it
The art of enamelling, like other pro-
cesses of a similar nature, involves con-
siderable knowledge of what are known
as trade secrets, many of which are only
attainable by actual experience and con-
tinual practice. The general features of
the work, however, will be gathered
from the following description:
The necessary compounds, such as the
sedimentary rock and chemicals, are re-
ceived in the form of shale or powder,
and are first mixed and smelted in an oil-
fired furnace, the proper proportions of
the compound being determined by the
particular formula in use. The furnace
is divided into two sections — one reserved
for colored and the other for white mix-
tures. The furnace is heated to about
1,600 deg. F., care being taken to avoid
over-heating. When the heated mass of
materials begins to bubble, the furnace
is immediately tapped and the charge
run out into a bath of cold water; in-
stantaneous cooling is a very important
factor, and to achieve this the frit, as
the product is termed at this point, is al-
lowed to flow out in a very fine stream
and a current of cold water is played
upon the molten substance as it falls into
the bath, which is also kept cold by a
continual overflow from the wooden tank
beneath the pouring spouts. The sudden
vitrifaction of the frit facilitates the
operation of grinding to the desired de-
gree of fineness, the calcined substance
having a glassy appearance and being
easily broken into smaller particles.
Grinding the Mixture
After the material is removed from
the cooling bath, it is allowed to dry be-
fore being placed in the mills for grind-
ing. In addition to the chemicals that
are united in the fusing process, others
are added preparatory to grinding. Two
tumbling mills, 3 ft. dia. by 4 ft. long,
and one about 2 ft. by 40 in. long, are
pi-ovided for this purpose, the two larger
being for wet mixtures and the smaller
for dry mixtures. The mills are made
with sheet steel bodies and cast iron
ends, and are lined with a substantial
layer of porcelain. The door is similarly
lined, and when placed in position the
inner wall coincides with the remainder
of the cylinder, thus forming an undis-
turbed surface for the movement of the
revolving mixture.
One of the very important require-
ments in connection with the preparation
of the chemicals and various ingredients
used in the art of enamelling is that
every facility be adopted and the great-
est care exercised to exclude the pre-
sence of foreign matter which would
have a detrimental effect upon the ulti-
mate results. The friction and impact
required to grind any substance to
powder entail the use of grinding
mediums which must be much harder
than the material being ground. Flint
stones are generally used for the grind-
ing of enamelling powders, as the wear
upon them from the continual tumbling
is imperceptible, and thus assures the
powdered material being practically free
from any substance other than those
placed in the mill. Extreme care and
cleanliness must be exercised in the pre-
paration of the materials and their sub-
sequent use in the enamelling process;
and to eliminate trouble at a future
stage of the work special attention is
given to all these elementary factors.
After the charge in a mill has been
ground to the desired grade of fineness,
generally requiring from 5 to 6 hours,
every particle of the powder, together

amellinvr of metnl is thiit the process is
■'•«httt varietl for sheet work and
•..:s. due to the difference in the
» iu-m.cal reliction. For operations on
sheet work the mixture is prepared in
the form of a wet solution, into which
the part.s arc dipped; while the process
for castinirs retiuires the application of
the enamel in a powdered st.ite distri-
buted evenly upon the surface of the
work. The prim-iry essential in the
enamellin;r of sheet metal is the selection
and preparation of the material.
.\fter the sheet iron has been cut and
formed into the shape desired, the pieces
are thorouirhly cleansed in an acid bath
and then well washed in hot and cold
water, beinjr aftervvards immersed in a
-special solution and a$rain washed in
water to destroy further action of the
acids. All trace of moisture is entirely
removed by placing the treated work in
a dryinp kiln, after which it is ready to
receive the pround coat. In the general
run of sheet steel work that is subjected
to the enamelling- process, particularly
the class of work that is handled in this
plant, the entire surface of the work is
treated with a ground coat, this invari-
ably being of a dark blue color. The
enamel is in the form of a creamy solu
tion contained in galvanized sheet stee!

tanks, into which the work is dipped and
swung with a peculiar movement so as
to insure an evenly distributed coating
over the complete surface of the work.
TliTs is a very important detail, and the
girls employed become very expert in the
manipulation of the different shapes and
sizes they are called upon to handle.
Drying and Burning
.\fter being arranged in rack trucks —
the pieces being kept separate — they are
moved into the drying kiln to remove all
traces of moisture; when thoroughly
dry, the work is ready for baking. Spe-
cial facilities are provided at the front
of the furnace for handlin.g the work.
The pieces are placed on bars provided
with sharp prongs, so that only the points
are in contact with the material; this
method avoids serious marking of the
under surface and also prevents distor-
tion of the work. Several pieces are
placed on this rack and the whole run
into the furnace, which is kept at a tem-

Baking or burning, which constitutes
the fusing of the enamel coating, occu-
pies about one or two minutes, and when
the work is taken out it i.s immediately
removed and placed on a flat plate to
retain the shape while cooling. When
cold, the same sequence of operations is
again followed for the succeeding coats.
The general practice in this plant is to
give the work one ground, one inter-
mediate and one finishing coat; this gives
a fairly flexible surface; a thicker
enamel is liable to develop cracks.
For embossed work, such as lettering
or ornamental designs, the plant is equip
ped with a spraying outfit, this being
the only method that will insure equal
distribution of the enamel solution. When
work of this character is dipped the
solution gathers about the raised im-
pressions and destroys their prominence
owing to the inability of the solution to
drain freely from the irregular portions.
Process for Cast Iron
The method of enamelling cast iron
differs to some extent from that used in
coating sheet material. The application
of the ground coat is accomplished in a
similar manner, the piece being swabbed
with a thin solution and then dried, after
which the article is placed in the furnace
and heated to a cherry red, when the
work is removed from the fire chamber
and sprinkled evenly over the entire sur-
fact with finely powdered enamel and
again placed in the furnace, allowing the
powder to fuse and spread evenly over
the surface; this process is continued
until the desired coating is obtained. The
surface of the iron must be perfectly
clean and free from corrosion, as the
chemical action of the rust will not allow
the enamel to set properly, a blemish
:'ppearing wherever rusting has oc-
curred.
In the preparation of the various
formula the company have given special
attention to those for cast iron hollow
ware subjected to chemical reaction dur-
ing the boiling or cooking of fruits and

vegetables that contain a larjre percent-
age of acid. Enamel work of this charac-
ter must withstand the severest acid test
before it is permitted to leave the fac-
tory.
Ornamental Work
Floral and other ornamental designs
for the decoration of signs, stove panels,
etc., are included in the work of the
enamelling department. Meyercord's
process of enamel decalcomania is the
method used in putting on the various
designs; after being transferred to the
previously enamelled surface, the articles
are again baked in the furnace and the
color design is burnt in and becomes
part of the enamel coating.
The range of product manufactured by
this firm includes wood burning cook
stoves, cast iron and steel stoves and
ranges for wood, coal and gas, and
in addition specializes in numerous
items of cast iron house and factory
equipment, much of which is now being
treated in the new enamelling depart-
ment.
Owing to the semi-isolated position of
the plant, special provision has been
made for fire protection; in addition to
a well trained fire-fighting- force, the en-
tire factory is equipped with a sprinkler
system. Shop welfare and first aid de-
partments are also features of the plant
management. The executive consists of
E. Panneton, managing director; J. A.
St. GermTin, secretary-treasurer; F.
Lauer, general superintendent; and
Chas. Watt, superintendent of the shell
department.

WAR SERVICE BOARD FOR U. S.
FOUNDRY INDUSTRY
IN order to maintain proper contact be-
tween the foundry industry and those de-
partments of the United States Govern-
ment which purchase castings a war ser-
vice board of five members has been or-
ganized by the American Foundrymen's
Association, the members being: R. A.
Bull, chairman, Duquesne Steel Foundry
Co., Pittsburgh; J. C. Haswell. Dayton
Malleable Iron Co., Dayton, O.; G. H.
Clame'r, Ajax Metal Co., Philadelphia;
H. D. Miles, Buffalo Foundry & Machine
Co., Buffalo, and C. C. Smith, Union Steei
Castings Co., Pittsburgh.
The personnel of this board is repre-
sentative of every branch of the foundry
industry, including gray iron, steel,
malleable iron and non-ferrous metals.
Furthermore, its members are affiliated
with the leading organizations of casting
manufacturers of the United States, as
follows: American Foundrymen's Asso-
ciation, National Founders' Association,
American Institute of Metals, Am-
erican Malleable Casting Association,
and the Steel Founders' Society.
In view of the tremendous task under-
taken by this board, numerous sub-com-
mittees undoubtedly will be appointed to
represent the various lines of each
branch of the industry. A survey of the
foundry trade of the country undoubtedly
will be made to ascertain the class of
work for which each shop is best adapt-
ed. The establishment of an office in
Washington is being considered.

COAL FAMINE THREATENS
SWITZERLAND
THE shortage of fuel threatens to de-
velop into famine in some neutral coun-
tries, and the danger is being met in two
ways, viz., by stringent official restric-
tions as to the uses of fuel, direct or in-
direct, and an increased exploitation of
existing home supplies. Switzerland ha..;
perhaps felt the inconvenience more than
most other countries, and the Govern-
ment of the Canton of Zurich, for one,
has just issued fresh restrictions. Pri-
vate houses must not be heated, unless
the temperature for three consecutive
days has been below 10 deg. C. and on
days when it has been only 5 deg. C.
the previous evening. The temperature
in residences, schools, offices and work-
shops is not to exceed 16 deg. C, in
shops not above 14 deg. C, and in bed-
rooms not above 12 deg. C. Hot water
appliances must only be used once a
week and school baths only once a
month. Other public baths may in the
meantime be kept open except on Mon-
days and Tuesdays. In cafes, restaur
ants, etc., there must be no heating from
10 p.m. to 10 a.m., and no hot food must
be served after 9 p.m. All offices are to
close at 5 p.m. and museums, libraries,
etc., must not be warmed at all. The
schools are to save 35 per cent., churches
and chapels 50 per cent., cafes and res-
taurants 35 per cent., shops and public
buildings 25 per cent., elsewhere accord-
ing to circumstances from 20 per cent,
to 40 per cent, of the quantities of fuel
hitherto used. In four-roomed resi-
dences onlv one. room must be heated, in
larger residences only two. On the other
hand endeavors have quite recently been
started to explo't possible deposits of
coal, lin-nite, and even petroleum, but
this work is still in its first stages. Bor-
ings for coal ai-e t'lking place in Wallis
and Jura, at Herdern. etc.; lignite de-
posits h-'ve been t^ken in hand at Grond-
iseril. Ufhusen and Zell: lignite has also
been come unon at Fosytal. Some for-
eign canitil is interested in this wo''k,

GOVERNiMFMT CONTROLS BRITISH
GUIANA BAUXITE
THE British Government is now taking
a very firm stand with regard to the ex-
ploitation of the imnortant bauxite dis-
coveries in Brit'sh Guiana, and is deter-
mined that the first ell on this mineral,
the source of aluminum, shall be reserv-
ed for the Emnire. The British Empire
Producers' Organization has already
pointed out that no further anplications
for bauxite I-inds in Br'tish Guiana are
to be granted till after the war. But it
appears that the Government have gone
further than this. A portion of the
bauxite won by holders licensed before
the above regulation came into force ha.-;
to be placed at the disposal of the Brit-
ish Government at a certain price. The
British Government, moreover, reserves
the right to limit the export to countries
other than British, and at its discretion
to prohibit export altogether. Practice,
moreover, has followed principle, and a
large export shipment to a foreign coun-
try of British Guiana bauxite won by a
company in which foreign interests are
partly represented was recently, it is
stated, held up. Such evidence of a de-
termination to conserve in future the
mineral wealth of the Empire for the
Empire is highly encouraging.

TUNGSTEN PRODUCTION IN ENG-
LAND
THE manufacture of pure tung.sten
from its ores has now become an
established industry of Great Britain,
as since the inception of the war its pro-
duction has been attempted by local firm.<
and is being achieved on a scale which
should render the country independent of
the German product for all time and ma-
terially aid the tool steel and allied in-
dustries in retaining the markets of the
world for high-speed steel.
In describing a plant and the pro-
cesses involved, a recent number of
Engineering says: When the war broke
out the site of the works was waste
ground, with the exception of a small
building and a chimney; since the sum-
mer of 1914 a large group of buildings,
has been erected on a six-acre site. These
are filled with complicated mechanical
appliances, the work-people have been
trained to new and varied duties, and an
uninterrupted output has been maintain-
ed. Extensive railway sidings are laid,
but at present motor lorries are em-
ployed for the despatch of the finished
product to the works of consumers,
whose urgent need of tungsten makes the
inevitable delay of railway transport
serious. The company, it may be said,
has not overlooked the comforts of the
workpeople, both men and women, some
of the processes being carried out by
girls. Messrooms for the convenience of
both have been provided. All the build-
ings are lofty and well ventilated and
lighted, and none of the processes, nor
any of the work, can be described as in
any way unhealthy. A notable point is
the absence of dust, although the pro-
cesses are such as to give rise to large
quantities; all plant producing it is en-
closed. A repair shop is included amon,:;
the buildings, consisting of a smithy and
engineers' and joiners' shops, and a large
block of offices facing the main road ac-
commodates the management.
All the processes are arranged on the
ground floor level, but some of them ex-
tend upwards as well, and are reached
from several floors. Taking the pro-
cesses in their order, the trucks bringinv,
the ore, soda and other requisites are run
alongside a staging in the warehouse, ar-
ranged at a convenient height for un-
loading, the wagons being handled by the

out in a lieparHte department of the
work*. C)f these en:ht operation* .■iix are
necessary to isolate or separate the
tunirsten oxide from the other const i-
tuentM of the ore and the re-
nuiininc two operations to remove the
oxyvren, lo as to obtain the pure metal.
Some ores contain tin or bismuth of suf-
rtcient \'«lue to be reeovere^l, and this is
effected by magnetic separators, wolfram
beinjr slightly mairnetic. The first step
is to «ample and assay the ore. which
then is loade^l into small trucks and
ele%"ated lo a .series of bin.s some 60 ft,
above floor level. Parcels of ore requir-
ing different methods of treatment are
kept separate. Krom the bins the ore
passes to (H'indinK' machines, and themi
to calcinini; furnaces, magnetic separa
tors or fine f^rindini; mills, as its com-
position may require.
Only wolfnim, finely ground and ready
for treatment, passes forward to the rc-
i:ular process; and impure or mixed ores,
which cannot be improveil by mechanical
or mairnctic methods, go to a special de-
partment referred to later. The pure
wolfram thus obtained is conveyed in
trucks to bins placed over mixinp ma-
chines, adjacent to a supply of soda. The
finely ^ound ore and the soda, in accur-
atelv weiched proportions determined by
analysis in the laboratory, are then fed
into double-arm mixers, and the mixed
product is discharged into trucks for
conveyance to the melting furnaces, in
which is performed operation two in the
works department "B."
Scheelite, that variety of ore eonsistinp:
of tungsten, calcium and oxyiaren, also
known as calcium tuii<rstate, as well as
mixed wolfram-tin slimes, tin residue
mixed with small quantities of tungsten
ore and residues of other sorts, are
treated in a separate plant, so that im-
pure sodium tungrstate may be isolated
and purified before being passed on to
the main process.
The next building contains a series of
hand-fired reverberatory furnaces of
special design, into which the ground ore
and soda are fed and heated to a tem-
perature of about 1,000 deg. C. and sub-
jected to constant rabbling. The fur-
naces just mentioned are designed to
economize floor space; they are fed on
one side with ore and are stoked from
the opposite side. Flues below the floor
connect the furnaces with a centrally-
placed chimney, 150 ft. in height and 9
ft. in diameter. Ore mixtures are care-
fully selected, so far as the restricted
supply permits, to yield a uniform fur-
nace product, and the charge is drawn
into slag pots, which are wheeled to a
convenient point for handling by an over-
head electric travelling crane. These
pots, when cool, are raised and tipped,
the charge coming away in a solid lump,
which is easily broken up by hammers to
a size suitable for feeding a jaw breaker.
in which the lumps are reduced to about
1-in. cubes. The melt produced is a
ureal contniiit to the fine powiler fed into
the furnaces, .\fter havinir been broken
up it has to be finely ground in order that
it may hv acteil upon by tJie chemicals,
these processes forming the third opera-
tion, carried out in department "C" The
material is handleil by an overhead
crane, and the main shafting is run un-
der the fioor to give the crane a free
passage.
In the fourth process, in the "D" do-
imrtment or building, the finely ground
melt is placed in a number of steam-
heated circular vats, in which the tung-
state of soda, which is soluble, due to the
soda, is extracted from the ground fur-
nace melt. Mixers urv provided in the
vats, and the solution of sodium
tungstate, carrying in .suspension finely
divided oxides of iron, manganese, lime
and silica, is forced through filter
presses. The resulting solution thus
clarified conUiins essentially sodium
tungstate, the purity of which depends
upon the absence of sulphur, arsenic and
other elements, which form soluble coni-
pounds with soda. Tin oxide, which oc-
curs in many of the ores, under correct
working conditions does not become
.soluble, and remains in the filter cake.
The steam required for the "D" depart-
ment is obtained from an adjoining
boiler-house, containing two Lancashire
boilers.
In the "E" department the fifth pro-
cess is effected in a series of special vats
on a raised platform. The tungstate of
soda is treated with hydrochloric acid,
which is elevated by compressed air, and
results in the tungstate of soda being
broken up into tungstic acid (WO )
and sodium chloride, which remains in
solution. The solution, with the WO in
suspension, is conveyed to another series
of vats, in which it is washed by decan-
tation, to rid it of the soda salts. As
much water as possible has to be got rid
of, and after the final wash the WO is
brought to a creamy consistency by the
surplus water being syphoned off. This
cream is then conveyed to a number of
centrifugal machines, in which the WO
collects along the inner face as a thick,
deep chrome-yellow paste. It is dug out
with wooden spades and finally dried in
a series of bottom-heated stoves. This
drying process is the sixth, and is effect-
ed in the "F" department. The chemical
processes may now be described as com-
pleted, as all that remains to be done is
to obtain the pure metal from the oxide,
which is an ordinary metallurgical opera-
tion, invoKnng only heat and the pre-
sence of a suitable reducing agent, such
as carbon, hydrocarbons, hydrogen, zinc,
aluminum or others.
The seventh process, in the "G" de-
partment, is effected in a large roomy
building containing a number of soe-
cially designed furnaces. The yellow
paste is passed into the end of each fur-
nace and raised to a high temperature to
effect reduction, and the metal is thus
obtained. The output of these furnaces
is a black material, which is conveyed
into the last, the eighth of the
scries of buildings, where is is ground to
a powder, washed, dried and poured into
tin cases about 1 cub. ft. each in size,
contJiining 200 lb., and finally, after
soldering, packed in wooden boxes or
metiil containers, ready for iDiivcyaiur
to the consumers.

The Economical Use of Grinding Wheels in the Foundry
By W. T. Montague**
Next to a prvper utidcrstanding of the yriinliiuj ivlicrl us a citttuty tool, the author
points out the necessity of giving careful consideration to the castings to be ground, specialhi
referring to their size and shape, the physical properties of the metal and the amount of
grinding to be done. Weight and rigiditij of machines, solidity of foundations'^, and suit-
ability of bearings anil lubricating arrangements are points of particular interest.
THE modern grindixig- wheel plays
an extremely important part in
the metal-working- industries. Its
sreat usefulness begins in the foundry
just as soon as the newly-poured cast-
ings have become sufficiently cool to be
removed to the cleaning floor. It is used
in the alloy steel industry to remove
seams, blisters and flaws from billets,
prior to rolling them into commercial
shapes. Large numbers are used later
on to grind the various metal parts that
ai-e fashioned into machine tools, auto-
mobiles, aeroplanes, locomotives, war
munitions and the multitude of steel
tools that are also employed in cutting
metals.
Realizing that the grinding wheel is
practically indispensable to 'the foundry-
man, it is fair to assume that he is vit-
ally interested in those factors that con-
tribute to the economical use of this cut-
ting tool. Although widespread pub-
licity has been resorted to by some of
the grinding wheel manufacturers, in
order to demonstrate the methods of
using and caring for grinding wheels to
obtain maximum service at minimum
cost, yet tsere are evidences that there is
much to be learned in this direction.
To develop the modern grinding wheel
into a tool of usefulness and dependabil-
ity, has been the abra.sive manufacturer's
problem, but the problem is not solved
when the wheel is produced. The grind-
ing wheel maker must go further than
this. He must educate the user so that
he can take advantage of all the qualities
that science and skill have put into the
wheel.
Analysis of the Grinding Wheel Problem
The development of this paper will
rest upon the following analysis of fac-
tors that will contribute to the economi-
cal use of grinding wheels in the foun-
dry, if they are understood and taken
into consideration:
1. — A thorough understanding of the
grinding wheel as a cutting tool is the
first essential.
2. — The castings to be ground must be
carefully considered with special refer-
ence to their siae and shape, the physical
properties of the metal, and the amount
of grinding to be done.
3._The condition of the grinding ma-
chines must be satisfactory. This refers
to weight and rigidity, solid foundations,
adequate bearings and proper lubrica-
tion.

American Foundrymen's Association. Boston, Sep-
tember. 1917.
••With the Norton Co.. Worcester. Mass.
4. — The speed of the grinding wheel
is of the utmost importance and must be
held within certain limits if proper cut-
ting action and economy in wheel con-
sumption are to be obtained.
5. — The personal factor must be taken
into consideration and allowances made
for it.
6. — Adequate records of wheel con-
sumption should be kept and if condi-
tions warrant, industry and economy on
the part of the workmen should be pro-
perly rewarded.
7. — The use of the gi'inding wheel
should be made safe by proper protec-
tion devices.
The first portion of this paper will
deal with the proven theories of cutting
action. They will be gone into quite
fully, as it is believed the information
will be available to foundrymen who
may be using grinding wheels.
It is a well-known fact that the
amount of work one gets out of a ma-
chine, engine or tool, is often directly
proportional to one's knowledge and
understanding of that machine, engine
or tool, granting, of course, that the
tool is not defective or unsuited to the
operation in the first place. This is par-
tilcularly true of the grinding wheel,
which is an aggregation of minute cut-
ting tools bonded together so they can
withstand the high rotative speed neces-
sary to rapidly remove large quantities
of metal.
The composition of the vitrified grind-
ing wheel, which type is almost always
used for snagging castings, is as simple
as its manufacture is complex. It is
made of abrasive grain, clay bond and
water. Subsequent burning in a kiln
and heat treatment vitrifies the bond and
produces that quality termed "hardness."
The selection of abrasive material is
almost entirely dependent upon the na-
ture of the metal to be ground. There
have been developed for cutting the
metals used in castings to-day, two
principal kinds of artificial abrasive —
the aluminous group and the carbide of
silicon group. Included m the former
are alundum, aloxite, boro-carbone.
adamite, and the like, and in the latter
group crvs^'olon, carborundum, carbolite,
etc. Without going into the reasons
therefore, we will simply state that
experience has shown that for materials
of high tensile strength, the aluminous
abrasives prove the most efficient. This
means that the various kinds of steel,
wrought iron and annealed malleable
iron, automatically call for an abrasive
such as alundum. On the other hand,
erystolon is chosen for oast iron, in-
cluding gray and chilled iron, unanneal-
ed malleable iron, brass, bronze, alumi-
num and copper, which are materials of
comparatively low tensile strength. This
distinction is clear cut and quite easy
to remember.
The Question of Grain Size
The question of what size of grain to
use is not difiicult to settle. The size of
the wheel, amount of material to be re-
moved, and the nature of the metal
usually determine this very readily.
Finish is seldom a consideration and so
very coarse grits are used.
How hard to bond a grinding wheel is
a point not so readily determined. The
influencing factors are many, including:
1 — Physical properties of the metal to be
p: round.
2 — Shape and condition of the surface to be
presented to the face of the grinding
wheel.
3 — Speed of the grinding wheel.
4 — Condition of the grinding machine as to
rigidity and steadiness of spindle.
5 — Method of applying the work, that is, whe-
ther mechanically or entirely by hand.
In trying to serve our customers and
meet their requirements, we are con-
tinually reminded that the question of
what constitutes a "grade" or the de-
gree of hardness of a grinding wheel is
not fully understood. Grade is the word
used to designate relative hardness of
any given grinding wheel. By hardness,
we do not in this instance refer to the
hardness of the abrasive, which is fixed
throughout any one wheel. We refer to
the strength of the bond in retaining its
grip on :'he cutting grains of the wheel.
If the bond is of insufficient strength to
hold the cutting particles in the face of
the wheel until they have become dulled
and worn from the cutting process, then
we call the wheel too soft. On the con-
trary, an excessively "hard" wheel is
one "where the bond retains the grit long
after it has become dulled and is there-
fore practically useless. The word
"hardness" might almost be called a
misnomer and perhaps the somewhat
more clumsy phrase, "resistance to dis-
integration," ought to be substituted.
This resistance to disintegration, or
grade, is actually determined by measur-
ing another separate property of the
wheel, namely, the resistance of the
bond to the penetration of a hardened
steel tool. However, it is known that
each of these properties is a function of
the other and to measure the force of
resistance to disintegration in grindinT
wheels has been impossible on a com-
mercial scale up to this time.

were of the same site, with the same

ness. The praile J broke when the stress
was lt>."«0 pounds per square inch, the
crade K at 17S0 pounds per si|unre inch,
and so on. Therefore, one mipht infer
that all frrade J wheels would burst
w-hen this same stress was reached.
Not an Kxact Value
Now let us see what reall\ hap-
pens when sevenU wheels of sup-
posedly the same jrrade are tested.
We find that those that have been
determined to be of prade J hard-
ness will burst at stresses ranging from
1600 to 1700 pounds per square incli,
prade M at from 1880 to 1790 pounds per
square inch and so on. In other words,
a prade represents a ranpe of values be-
tween definite limits. An understanding
of this point is most essential to the
users of grinding wheels and will explain
many seeming variations in grinding
wheel action and life.
Assume a certain snagging operation
is being performed, whereby all the fac-
tors combine to bring a pressure against

stituted. This last wheel will not bo

<iuitc rapidly, in fad, much more rapidly
than the difference in -strength or hard-
ness would seem to warrant. This point
has been developed in detail because an
understanding of it will eliminate many
questions arising between the wheel
manufacturer and the wheel consumer.
It is needless to say that there is a
close limit to the allowable variation and
the manufacturer who best keeps within
these limits, deserves the greatest con-
fidence of the consumer.
The old idea of grinding considered it
as a wearing down of the metal by rub-
bing or friction. This is now our under-
standing of the lapping process and
modern grinding has progressed far be-
yond this point. However, if a wheel
is bonded too hard for the work at hand,
action is similar to that of a sloel mill-
ing cutter. On the face of the wheel are
millions of cutting teeth at work every
niiTiule. and, although these teeth are

the grain on the face of the wheel which
causes a stress of a particular nature
to be set up. Bear in mind that this is a
tangential or peripheral stress, so to
speak, not a stress due to centrifugal
force. The wheel whose bond has a

of an inferior abrasive, the metal is

they are capable of working at a much
greater speed.
In order for a wheel to cut fast and
free, it is necessary for it to wear — that
is, for the bond to release those grains
that have become dulled and useless.
From this it is seen that the grain, which
has to the greatest degree the physical
property of hardness (we refer to
mineralogical hardness), combined with
sharpness, is the mo.st efTicienit and will
do the greatest am>yunt of useful work
before dulling. It is these very quali-
ties that make alundum superior to the
softer and more impure abrasive, emery,
which dulls very rapidly under cutting
pressures.
A set of experiments recently was
carried out, showing how the condition
of the face of a grinding wheel affect.^
its cutting action, its ability to remove
metal and the power consumed in doina'
this. The results are shown in Fis. :5.
which represents the curve traced by the
stylus of a Westinghouse graphic watt-
meter connected to a motor-driven grind-
ing machine. Section A of the curve
shows the no-load power. Then a bar of
steel was applied to the wheel under a
given pressure and th'.s pressure was
held constant throughout the tests. What
happened? First, the power consump-
tion climbed abruptly as the sharp cut-
ting grain bit deeply into the metal.
After two minutes of this rapid cutting,
we reached the glazing point and the line
C resulted. At D we were working with
a wheel, the cutting points of which wero
nearly all worn down flat. The power
consumption was low because there was
practically no useful work being done.
The smooth grain simply rubbed and
.slipped over the bar. At E. the steel
be"-an to heat up and e-et sticky, so that
particles began to load and smear into
the Dores of the wheel face. These res-
pective conditions of the grains are illus-
trated diagramatically from left to right
above the curve. The nower now climhed

<his point was reached, the wheel should
have been dressed or resharpened. This
aptly illustrates the folly of using a
wheel that is too hard or dense to cut
freely without resorting to continual
dressing.
Action of an Ideal Wheel
The action of the ideal wheel is pic-
tured in Fig. 4. This shows that the
glazing period is no sooner entered upon,
than the bond suddenly gives way and
releases the dulled teeth. New and sharp
grains take their place and the cutting is
resumed at very nearly the initial rate.
A wheel of the correct gi-ain and grade
for i.he operation at hand can oftentimes
be dressed by the additional application
of pressure on the part of the operator,
or by presenting the very sharpest fins on
a casting to the wheel face under in-
creased pressure. This means that use-
ful work is being performed while
sharpening the wheel, with practically no
lost time or wear of dresser cutters. It
is this condition that all should aim for
in selecting snagging wheels and the
workmen should be educated to this kind
of grinding.
Some think that in order to make a
wheel cut, you must force it exceedingly
hard. Tliis is not true, if the wheel is
not excessively hard or fine for the work.
A wheel of the correct grain and grade
will cut faster if you do not force it too
hai-d. If these points are clearly under-
stood, it will enable you to direct the
grinding end of your business intelligent-
ly. Failure to grasp the essentials will
prove disastrous to economy.
The next factor of importance to econ-
omy in the use of the grinding wheel in
the foundry is a knowledge of the effect
of the physical properties of the metal to
be ground. To say that a wheel is de-
sired for malleable iron may not be
enough. This expression sometimes
covers the annealed malleable and some-
times the white iron before it has been
annealed. If the iron is of the an-
nealed variety, then alundum or an alum-
inous abrasive should be employed, but
if the iron has not been annealed, then
by all means use crystolon or some car-
bide of silicon abrasive. Furthermore,
the white iron castings usually require
wheels of much greater hardness than
the annealed castings and this is readilv
understood when the difference in hard-
ness, density and structure of these
metals is known.
It is a common saying that the harder
the metal, the softer should be the
grinding wheel. Strictly speaking, this
applies only to precision grinding, cer-
tainly not to the snagging of castings.
Let us consider manganese steel, which,
as everyone knows, can be machined
economically only with abrasives. This
mat-erial offers a hip-h resistance to pene-
tration and hence slightly finer grits are
usually employed for snagging castings
made of manganese steel than would be
used for ordinary carbon steel. Coarser
grits would require more manual effort
than could be expected from the ordinary
workman.
Soft, stringy materials generally call
for comparatively coarse grits and medi-
um hard grades. Dense, brittle materials
require slightly finer grains and harder
gi'ades, sometimes one or both.
The following table may illustrate thi.5
to a little better advantage:
Metal Grade of Wheel
Manganese Steel Cast- 16-Q or R Alundum
inKs Vitrified
Carbon Steel CastinKs 10-U Alundum Vitri-
fied
Brass Castings 24-Q Crysti.lon Vitri-
fied
Chilled Iron Castings 16, 20 or 21-S. T or U
Crystolon Vitrified
It is no doubt well understood that the
harder the fins and the sharper the con-
tact, the harder must be the grinding
wheel. This is necessarry to counteract
the dressing and tearing action of the
projecting metal.
Grinding Steel Castings
In grinding steel castings, the break-
ing-off of gates and risers often leaves a
very large volume of metal to be ground
away. As the arc of contact thus in-
creases there are increased loading tend-
encies, and sometimes a heavy, black oil
is daubed on the metal, to keep the
wheel open and thus reduce dressing.
After much experimenting, a specially
treated or filled wheel has been develop-
ed that automatically lubricates the cut-
ting grains and often greatly lengthens
the life of the wheel because of reduced
dressing. This filling is not thrown out
by centrifugal force; it increases the life
of the wheel and many times causes
faster cutting action because of the lub-
rication. In instances where the grind-
ing is of a very rough, heavy nature, this
special treated wheel shows up to very
good advantage and it would not be
economical to use anything else.
to pieces by the percussion set up by the
castings on the face of the wheel.
A test conducted by an extensive user
of grinding wheels for the purpose of
determining whether or not it pays to
install concrete foundations under the
grinding machines may iterest you. This
test was conducted with wheels of the
same size and same grain and grade on
the very same machines and indentieal
castings. One set of machines was
mounted on concrete or solid foundations
and the other on wood or shaky founda-
tion. The results were as follows:
Average life of wheels on wood floor, days 113
Average life of wheels on concrete floor.
days 188
Increase in life due to solid foundation, per
cent 6n
Average saving a month per wheel on con-
crete floor i 2.00
Average yearly saving per wheel 24.00
Where many wheels are used, this sav-
ing is a decidedly large and important
consideration. In this case, the concrete
foundation paid for itself inside of two
months and the saving in wheels will go
on indefinitely. As it was, several hun-
dred dollars were saved by this company
the first year that concrete foundations
were used.
Loose and insecure mooring is also
detrimental to the life of the grinding
wheel. Don't wait until the machine be-
gins walking around the foundry floor
before remedying matters.
Similar figures could be produced to
show the saving effected by keeping
bearings in good condition. Excessive
radial play and end play destroy the
wheel rapidly. Many times complaints
received to the effect that grinding
wheels are not standing up as they form-
erly did can be traced directly to bearing
troubles. The introduction of harder
grades, as for example, from grade S to

We now come to the third factor which
has an important bearing on grinding
wheel economy, namely, the condition of
the grinding machine. Economy cannot
be expected if the machines are light and
shaky, or if the foundations are not solid.
A grinding wheel that vibrates or jumps
from any of these causes is soon pounded

because the speed of cutting is sacrificed
and the operator has to put forth greater
effort to do the same amount of work.

Much has been said and written about
proper operatijig speeds for grinding
wheels, but perhaps some important
phases of this subject have not yet been
niade thoroughly clear. Generally speak-
ing, the correct speed ranges for the
grinding wheels used in snagging cast-
ings lie between 5000 and 6000 surface
feet per minute. This is fairly well
established and quite generally accepted
by the manufacturers of grinding wheels.
This range was determined partly by
long years of experience and partly by
physical laws and the desire for an
adequate factor of safety. The engineer
building bridges, steel structures, ma-
chines and what not, recognizes the nec-
essity for an adequate factor of safety
and makes due allowance for it. Similar-
ly, the engineer in making grinding wheels
sees the great necessity for a factor of
safety in operating speed. All snagging
wheels made by reliable manufacturers
are subjected to a speed test the last
recommended speeds and any appre-
ciable deviation calls for adjustments
that are not always easy to make or
conductive to efficiency.
Keep .Surface Speed Constant
It Is now common knowledge that it is
necessary to keep the speed of the grind-
ing wheel approximately within the
recommended range if its productive
capabilities are to be maintained. It has
been demonstrated that if a wheel's speed
is allowed to fall to a very low level, or
if it is speeded up beyond a certain point,
in both cases reduced cutting ability for
the same amount of effort expended is
the result. In the case of a sub-normal
wheel speed, not only does the produc-
tive capacity fall off, but also, there is
excessive wheel wear.
To illustrate this point, let us consider
the case of an 18-inch wheel, 10 grade U
alundum. used for snagging steel cast-
ings. At 1175 revolutions per minute its
result ? Every cutting gi-ain on the face
of a revolving grinding wheel has a defin-
ite amount of energy stored up in it. It
is the expenditure of this energy that
enables the grain to do useful work and
remove metal. Now the energy available
varies as the square of the surface speed.
Therefore, at 11 inches diameter, the cut-
ting grains have only 40 per cent, of the
energy that they had at 18 inches diam-
eter and they cannot be expected, there-
fore, to grind as rapidly. Also, because
of the decreased energy stored up in each
grain of abrasive, it is less capable of
withstanding the resistance offered by
the steel and hence is more readily torn
from its setting. This, then, explains
the difficulty that will be encountered in
attempting to grind at very low surface
speed.
On the other hand, if this same 10
grade U alundum wheel was givijig satis-
faction at 5500 surface feet per minute,
and an attempt were made to speed it
up to 7000 surface feet, no greater produc-
tion would be realized. This is due to
the glazing effect resulting from the in-
creased duty imposed on each abrasive
grain.
Keeping a fairly constant surface
speed by increasing the revolutions as the
wheel wears down, is the proper pro-
cedure for maximum cutting ability with
minimum wear. This relation of life of
wheel to speed is perhaps more clearly
indicated in Fig. 5, representing actual
results of tests conducted in a large foun-
dry. The curves show the rate of de-
crease in wheel life as the surface speed
drops off. The continuous straight line
is for a wheel lasting 150 hours, wearing
uniformly from 18 inches to 9 inches in
diameter. Surface speed at the start was
5400 surface feet per minute, and, the
revolutions per minute being maintained
constant at 9 inches diameter, the sur-

face speed was reduced to 2700 feet
At 5400 surface feet per minute and
full diameter, all of the wheels tested
start off at a 200 or 250-hour pace. How-
ever, before the speed has been reduced
300 surface feet, we notice a change in
the slope of the curve indicating reduced
life. At 4000 surface feet per minute,
13 inches diameter, the falling off is most
pronounced and instead of obtaining 150
hours of wheel life, it ranges all the way
from 100 to 135 hours. Had these wheels
been speeded up at 15 inches diameter
and again at 12 inches, the 150 hours life
would have been more nearly attained.
What Excessively Hard Wheels Lead to
When a user of grinding wheels wishes
to avoid the trouble of maintaining fairly
constant surface speed, he invariably
tries to keep his wheel life up by using
wheels of excessively hard grade. The
immediate effect of this is increased
power consumption and decreased speed
of cutting, neither of which are desired.
Fig. 6 shows that regardless of speed,
successively harder grades require more
and more power to remove the same
amount of material.
It is, therefore, quite evident from the
foregoing that economy in wheel life
comes from maintaining fairly constant
surface speed as the diameters of the
wheels are reduced. This can be brought
about by using variable speed motors, or
having machines running at graded
speeds, to which the worn wheels are
shifted at given sizes.
The next point that requires careful
consideration is the personal factor en-
tering into the use of snagging wheels.
No two men will get the same life or
production from a grinding wheel, even
though the work and conditions are
identical. If the foundry is large and
there is a constant duplication of work
so that the piece rate can be used, then
it is safe to say that harder wheels must
be used than where day rate compensa-
ing the castings, and still others think
they must remove a quarter of an inch
of abrasive in dressing, where a sixteenth
of an inch would be ample. All of these
factors have their effect, and must be
allowed for. It is, therefore, important
that some kind of a record should be
kept, showing just how each grinder uses
his wheels. Many times the grinding
wheel manufacturer is blamed unjustly
for apparent variations in wheel life and
hardness. In some of these instances the
true causes can be attributed to the oper-
ation of this personal factor. For in-
stance, if a wheel should happen to be
on the soft side of grade S and it should
get into the hands of a grinder who was
very hard on grinding wheels, a certain
life and production would be obtained.
Now, in the same lot of wheels, there
might be one that varied slightly the
other way or toward the hard side of
grade S. Suppose that this was used by
a man who was more careful in using his
wheel. It is evident the wheel would last
very much longer under these conditions
and hence from a very slight and permis-
sible variation in hardness of wheel we
get a result that would indicate a wide
variation, if the personal factor is not
considered. This is not idle speculation.
It is stated from observation of actual
cases.
Where there is a constant duplication
of work and the piece-rate is used, there
is a very simple but serviceable method
for computing the relative efficiency of
various grinding wheels and operators.
The operator's earnings on a given class
of work per dollar cost of wheel may be
considered, under these circumstances, as
a very fair means of determining the
efficiency of the particular wheel used.
To encourage operators to use their
wheels economically, a bonus or premium
is sometimes paid for all earnings in ex-
cess of a given figure. This works out
very satisfactorily and means that the

tion is in force. However, the ideal con-
dition that permits the wheelmaker to
specify a free-cutting wheel, is where
there is a premium paid for maximum
production with minimum wheel wear.
Some men work the corners of the
wheel hard, others are abusive in apply-
competent grinder is rewarded for his
competency. It also invariably means
that free-cutting wheels will be used and
hence maximum production is obtained.
Records on Snagging Castings
Here are some actual figures obtained
If no records were kept, the wheel with
longer life and slightly greater total
tonnage would undoubtedly have been
picked as the more economical to use.
However, the wheel with 127 hours life
produced 2OV2 per cent, more castings a
day and the profit on this increased pro-
duction more than offset the slightly in-
creased abrasive cost.
Another large consumer of snagging
wheels keeps a tabular record on printed
cards of the following: Datej pieces
ground; weight, pounds; hours of grind-
ing; earnings; and wheel loss on diam-
eter. These figures permit the calcula-
tion of the abrasive cost per ton of cast-
ings ground, and the earnings per ton
of eastings ground. Manifestly, it is
desirable to keep the abrasive cost as
low as is consistent with satisfactory
earnings per ton. Keeping such records
as these makes it easy to pick out the
correct grinding wheel, and enables the
foundryman to tell just what each of
his grinders are doing. He can also
tell what the wheel manufacturer is send-
ing him without guesswork or resorting
to hearsay evidence from a few of the
operators. This is decidedly practical
and works for economy. It is time large
foundrymen paid more attention to this
phase of manufacturing cost, for nowhere
is it easier to save or lose large sums
than in the cleaning operations where
grinding wheels are used.
Here is an example which shows that
it is worth while to keep adequate grind-
ing records. A certain large producer of
draw-bars was using a hard wheel, 10-W
alundum. It had fairly long life and
turned out a large number of bars be-
fore it was used up. On the other hand,
the grinders were continually complain-
ing that they had to work too hard and
dress too often. Finally the grinding
wheelmakers were called into consulta-
tion and a test carried out with several
different grains and grades of wheel.
The result was the choosing of a 10-U
alundum wheel, one grade softer than the
W. The complaints ceased as soon as
this wheel was put into general use in
the foundry, and although the wheels
were used up faster, the production was
greatly increased and the overhead cor-
respondingly reduced. A brief analysis
of this will show up the facts to better
advantage:

The use of the softer wheel increased

LITTLE KNOWN FACTS
GKINDINt;
AHOLT
WHEN selecting a wheel for grinding it
is important that the grain size in the
■wheel should be considered, so that suffi-
cient room will be allowed between the
grains held in the bond to allow the
chips, which will be removed in the
grinding operation, to escape and be
freed from theigrinding wheel. If the
wheel is of just the "proper grade and
grain the face will always remain free-
cutting and clear, retaining none of the
metal particles as they are ground off
the article, .\ccording to Howard W.
Dunbar, in Grits and Grinds, the many
varieties of materials which are now be-
ing finished in the grinding machine re-
quire considerable attention to be paid to
this point.
The method of grinding employing the
face or periphery of the wheel offers the
least trouble or difficulty from this
source; but with machines where the
grinding is done on the rim of a cup or
cylinder wheel it is not only necessary
that the wheel grains be of such a size
as permit room for the chips but also
that the work itself be of such a form
that the chips can free themselves as
they pass by open spaces in the work.
This, of course, relates more particular-
ly to the crindink; of castings or parts
of irregular shape.
In a machine grinding with the peri-
phery of the wheel the line of contiict
is .so »mall that chips are less liable to
bo contiMcd in the crevices between the
jrruins. But on certain kinds of mater-
ial, particularly those of a soft nature,
the wheel is apt to take up little particles
of the material, and linally crowil them
in between the grains in the face of the
wheel, which c;iuses a great ileal of heat,
due to the increased friction of the wheel
performing its grinding operation. Fur-
thermore, they cause scratches in the
work, the wheel acts hard and is very in-
efficient.
The grinding wheel can easily be com-
pared to the milling machine in many
respects. Deep cuts on the milling ma-
chine were not possible until milling cut-
ters were made with coarse teeth to al-
low room for chips. Similarly, deep cuts
in heavy rourhing operations in the
grinding machine are not possible un-
less there is room for the chips to free
themselves and be carried away from
the point of contact of wheel with work.
We should, therefore, when deciding up-
on the method of grinding, and when
selecting a wheel, remember that the
more and larger the chips we remove,
the more room we must provide for
them.

PRECAUTIONS NECESSARY FOR
THE MAINTENANCE OF CRANE
RAILWAYS
Outside crane runways seem to be less
rigid than inside runways, possibly be-
cause of the fact that the building itself
provides some support and thus gives
more rigidity to the columns or uprights.
Outside runways are also exposed to all
conditions of weather, and for this reason
as well as because of the constant strains
and vibrations, they should receive care-
ful inspection. In case defective mem-
bers are observed they should be immedi-
ately replaced or repaired. Any corrosion
or rusting that is observed should be
checked by scraping or cleaning off rust
and applying a proper protective coat-
ing. Runaways that have been in ser-
vice for a number of years often sway
quite noticeably, and sometimes to such
an extent that the additional stresses
thus produced are dangerous. If this
condition exists repairs should be made
or reinforcements should be applied, suffi-
cient to restore the runway to its origin-
al strength and rigidity.
Effective safety inspection would pre-
vent many of these dangerous conditions,
and it should be thorough, regular, and
careful. The inspector should not only
submit recommendations for the safe-
guarding of the machines, which is one
of his special duties, but he should also
consider the Possible failure of weak
crane structures, spreading or creeping
rails and columns, uneven settling of
column foundations, and any other
trouble that might disturb the proper
alignment of runway tracks.
CANADA'S TK.\;)K U.VLANCE WITH
INllEI) SPATES
STATISTICS of Aniaric:i'K foreign
trade, issued recently by the Bureau of
Foreign and Domestic Commerce, make
known Canada's trade relations with the
I'liiteil States to the end of September,
I'.Hl. Canada's "unfavorable balance"
in these markets has assumed the im-
pressive total of $310,1(;i,1(;G.
The August trade figures of the two
neighbor countries showed th;it Canada
was adding to this "unfavorable bal-
ance" at the rate of nearly .'iCi million dol-
lars monthly. A substanti:il reduction
from this extreme rate occurred during
September, however. Canada cut her
imports from 71 millions in August to
,').3 million-s in September, and increased
her exports from 34 millions in August
to 37 millions in September.
In Second Place
Canada had climbed into second place
on Uncle Sam's customers' list durinir
August, but during September Canada
was in her usual third place. The Unitea
Kingdom bought a total of 131 millions,
and France 76 millions, a.gainst the Do-
minion's 53 millions. Exports to Canada
constituted 11. G per cent, of America's
foreign trade for September; 13.6 per
cent, for the nine months of 1917. Of
the total imports of the United States
from foreign countries during Septem-
ber, 1.'').7 per cent, came from Canada,
and during the 9 months of 1917 16.7
per cent. This proportion will be in-
creased now that Uncle Sam has gone to
Canada for war supplies.
The reduction in the total of the U. S.
imports to the Dominion of 17% millions
between September and Au-just may be
accounted largely due to the effect of the
embargo on e.xports, at the direction of
the President. Exports of .53 million
dollars' worth of American goods to
Canada compare with exports of 90 mil-
lion dollars' worth in May and 94 million
dollars' worth in June.

DOEvS A PISTON STOP AT RE-
VERSAL?
By R. Hamilton
CONSIDERABLE interest has ap-
parently been shown by many
readers in the question, does
a piston ato,p at reversal? This
is one of those mechanical conun-
drums that, in itself, has little or
no bearing: on the actual operation
of an engine, but one that will awaken
the deepest curiosity in the majority of
engineers or mechanics, once they are
fairly confronted with the problem. An
impromptu reply to this query would
invariably be, that the piston does stop
at each end of the stroke; but after a
little study of the linkage involved, to-
gether with the underlying principles of
geometry, many are forced to take a
neutral stand regarding its proper solu-
tion. In the opinion of the writer there
are reasonably two answers to the ques-
tion; that is, theoretically — with ab-
solutely no lost motion in the various
connections — the piston does not stop
at either end; practically, the piston
does make an infinitesimal stop, owing
to the fact that it is impossible to make
a fit of two moving parts that will be
entirely free from lost motion. This
looseness, even though imperceptible, is
nevertheless present.
On the basis of a theoretical solution,
we must realize that if a stop is made
it will be when the engine is on either
of the dead-centers; that is, when the
center of the crank, the center of the
crank-pin and the center of the cross-
head pin are in the same straight line.
We know that this condition exists dur-
ing each revolution of the crank; so the
question now is, how long are these three
centers in the same straight line ?
The geometrical definition of a line is
that it has only one dimension, that of
length. Therefore, if it has no thickness
and the crank is in motion, there can be
no stop on the line. The two extreme
positions on this line constitutes the
points Jcnown as the dead-centers of
the engine. Again we are faced with
the definition that a point indicates pos-
ition only; it has neither length, breadth
or thickness. As the circle described by
the crank-p'n is not a straight line, it is
a logical conclusion that no portion of
it is a straight line; so that it is quite
obvious that, on the forward stroke the
maximum distance between the center
of the crank and that of the cross-head
is not attained until the dead center is
reached, when the action of the cross-
head, and other reciprocating parts, is
imT-ed'ately reversed.
A factor that should be thoroughly
understood in the study of this problem,
is that of the relative motion of the
crank and cross-head pins. The uniform
motion of the fly-wheel causes the crank-
pin to pass through similar circumferen-
tial distances in the same period of time.
When this rotary motion of the crank
is converted — by means of the crank
and connecting rod — into the recipro-
cating movement of the cross-head and
piston, the action of the cycles are uni-
form, but each cycle of the reciprocating
parts consists of a gradual accelerat-
ing and retarding motion, occurring
twice in each revolution of the crank.
By referring to the sketch it will be
seen that the crank-pin circle is divided
into a certain number of equal parts,
illustrating the uniform action of the
crank-pin. If the reciprocating motion
were obtained by means of a slotted link,
the corresponding positions of the cross-
head or piston would be indicated by the
points on the horizontal diameter de-
rived from the vertical projection of the
points on the crank-pin circle. How-
as on the forward end the opposite ac-
tion evidently takes place, with the ob-
vious result, that for the same arc
traversed by the crank at either end, the
speed of the reciprocating parts would
be greater at the forward end, as indi-
cated in the lengths 0-1 and 11-12 on tne
graduated cross-head traverse line.
In order to form a triangle we know
that the sum of two of the sides must
be greater than the length of the third
side. With the exception of the "dead-
center" positions, this condition always
exists in the constantly changing posi-
tions of the moving parts under dis-
cussion; therefore the solution of the
"stop" query may rest on these facts.
A skeleton diagram of the linkage ap-
proaching the forward "dead-center" is
shown at B; 1 representing the crank-
pin. Until the point 1 coincides with
the straight line H-J, the triangle is still
existent, and the length H-I-J must be

ever, with the general practice of using
a connecting rod, as here shown, there
is a slight variation in the acceleration
at either end, due to the angularity of
the connecting rod. This is clear from
the arcs X-B and C-D. The graduations
on the line 0-12, to the right, represent
the horizontal movement and position
of the cross-head for the corresponding
positions of the crank-pin.
The position of the cross-head can be
readily determined when the crank is at
any point in its path of travel. By us-
ing the length of the connecting rod as
a radius and striking an arc from the
center of the crank-pin to the horizontal
diameter, this intersection will be the
relative position of the cross-head be-
tween its e.xtreme points of travel. The
variation in the retarding or accelerat-
ing motion of the reciprocating parts
may be better understood by referring
to sketches D and E. When the crank-
pin is approaching the back end dead-
center, the crank and the connecting rod
are overlapping, and the arcs that would
be described by their outer ends would
be tangent in the same direction, where-
greater than H-J; but, as a line has no
magnitude, the time required for the
crank-pin to pass over or through it
must be nil — therefore no stop is pos-
sible (theoretically). Diagram C is an
exaggerated skeleton sketch of the
center line of the crank nearing a
"dead-center;" E-F-G forms a right
triangle, E-G being the hypotenuse, so
that the latter must exceed the length
E-F until it is in a direct line with it.
Some of our readers might advance their
arguments as to how long it takes the
crank-pin to pass this "line."

The best bricks from the continent
were made of substances found in Styria,
and entirely in Austrian hands, but very
excellent inutjnesite i.< obuimed from
Greece, nnd firstnite bricks are now be
injr made in Knirland from the mac-
nesite procured from Greece and the
Levant. In some respects the Kntrlish
bricks are superior to those hitherto ob-
Uiine«l ubrtiad, but difflculties have aris
en, owinir to a tendency to •spall" or be
come chipped at the surface. This may
be due to unequal contraction of the
components of the brick, or to some de-
fect in calcination. The Austrian bricks
contained a larKcr percentage of iron in
combination with the magnesia than
those made from the Grecian mattnesitc.
which is relatively much more pure, and
it was hoped that by addinp a sufficient
amount of an iron compound to the raw
material Rood results would be obtained.
This has not hitherto been found to
answer, but experiments are beinR made
which already (rive promise of Rood re-
sults. Some kinds of bricks made from
fireclay and pure silica show much the
same defect in use as those prepared
from the Grecian maj:nesite.

(;OVEKN.MENT INSPECTION Ol
AIRPLANES
SPEAKING on this subject in the presi-
dential address delivered before the In-
stitution of Automobile EnRineers, Lon-
don, Oct. 10. 1917, Lieut.-Col. R. K. Bap;-
nall-Wild succeeded in conveying to his
hearers some idea of the magnitude of
the task of properly inspecting every in-
dividual part entering into the construc-
tion of the machine and the necessity for
a huge corps of skilled and meticulous
inspectors, the better to serve the mu-
tual interests of the manufacturers and
Government. To quote the concluding
remarks of the address:
"Inspection is essential to obtain effi-
cient output. It is the only method
whereby the directors of a company can
ascertain the quality of the firm's out-
put; it is their only safeguard thai
money, time and material are not being
wasted in production of scrap; it is a
check on their purchasing department; it
is a check on their design and draw in jr
office; it is even a check on their chief en-
gineer to whom the inspection branch is
responsible. Facts will always speak
and the inspection department can at any
moment produce figures showing rejec-
tions at any stage from the purchased
raw material to the completed and fin-
ished article.
"It has been suggested that a full Gov-
ernment system of inspection is but a
duplication of work. For a long time I
have had available a record showing re-
jections by the firm and rejections by
me. These figures, of course, also give
the percentage rejections on the total
uulput. and they must surely be of vital
invpurtance. not only from the outpiii
point of view, but liiiancially. .\ little
more money sjient on inspection not only
increu.Hes iliviilemls but brings in mon-
order.s. The better the article, having
due regarti to cost, the greater it.s popu-
larity with the purchaser.
"The inspector, as a rule, is nobody's
friend. This is not always his fault, it
is a fault of the whole system; he should
be encourageil to be human. He must
not be on unduly intimate social term.-i
with the production statf. but he must be
capable of ilealing with them with tact
and cordiality. 1 am cerUiin that if
more attention were paiil and more en-
couragement given to the class of man
emi)loyed by firms for this purpose,
much better results would be obtained."
.Some idea of the thoroughness of the
inspection, the minute attention given to
every detail and the continuous check on
every operation may be gained from a
perusal of the three inspection forms ap-
pended, relating to the cylinder, piston
and crankshaft of the rotary engine,
which formed part of the presidential
address.
Cylinder
Ideal Firm's Inspection Procedure,
with Reference to the Manufacture of a
Cylinder for a Rotary Engine.— 1. It is
given that the specification for the mate-
rial is mild steel. 0.4 to 0.5 carbon, to
conform to R.A.F. Specification 29a.
2. The main contractor orders rough -
machined stampings from the sub-con-
tractor X (whose method of manufacture
the main contractor has approved).
These stampings are to be supplied in the
annealed condition, and samples of the
test pieces from the bar material of
which the stampings are made to be
supplied.
3. Sub-contractor X orders approved
material from sub-contractor Y. who is a
steel manufacturer, and quotes approxi-
mate analysis which he considers desir-
able to meet the conditions required in
the manufacture of commercial stamp-
ings, and which will be in accordance
with specification 29a. He also asks for a
copy of a test certificate of the material
taken at some approved test-house.
4. The stampings made by sub-contrac-
tor X are delivered to the main contrac-
tor, who arranges the machining of the
stampings through various operations,
until the cylinder is completed and ready
for fitting to the engine. The inspection
arranged for by an ideal firm in their
own works, and in agreement with the
sub-contractors in their works, would
probably be as follows: —
(A) Steel Manufacturer Y. — The
casts of the steel which the contractors
propose to supply are analysed; each
ingot of the steel is examined, and an
inspector decides the amount of crop-
ping necessary from each end. The
cropped ingot is then passed through to
the rolling mills, where it is hammered
and rolled into suitable bars. Insnection
of the bars is made for roakes, pipes or
seams, and all defective material is re-
jected.
During the manufacttire inspector.?
check :ind record the tompcralures of
rolling and working. A sample tieat
piece is cut from the bar and forged
down to the ruling dimension of the sliell
of the cylinder stamping. This test
piece is then normalised, and tests are
carried out at :m approved teat house;
if all the bars arc made from one cast,
pi'obably one or two lest pieces only will
be taken. A copy of the certificate will
bo forwarded to contractor X, with pos-
sibly some spare test pieces; the bars
will then be delivered to the atamiK-r.
(H) The stftmper X, on receipt of
material with certificate, will immediate-
ly put in hand the stamping of the cylin-
der shells; inspectors will arrange to
check temperatures of working through-
out the whole process.
On completion each cylinder shell will
then he annealed, the temperatures be-
ing carefully chocked and each stamping
Hrinelled. A sample of the material will
ho hammered down to the ruling dimen-
sion of the shell, and will be annealeil
at the same time as the stam])ing. This
sample piece will then be machined as
a test piece and Brinell and tensile tests
taken. The Brinell numbers of all
stampings should conform to a definite
range, based on the test pieces, and, pro-
viding the tensile figures of the test
pieces are satisfactory, the stampings
will be approved.
The stampings will then be passed to
the rough-machining shop, and the .skin
removed, care being taken to retain the
identity numbers. After inspection for
surface flaws and general dimensions
they will be passed for delivery to the
main contractors. In the main contrac-
tor's works the stampings will then be
passed to the various machines for the
remaining operations, inspection taking
place between each operation as per the
following schedule: —
(1) Rough turn on outside to chuck
jaws, rough drill or bore, and face end.
(2) Rough counterbore working bar-
rel, rough turn outside to chuck jaw-,
face end, rough bore valve-seat diameter,
bore working barrel, finish int«mal-(on-
cd head. rouTh form outside taper.
(3) Rough bore and recess for valve
thread, rough turn outside diameters,
face to overall length, form top angular
face.
(4) Mill flat for sparking plug bo.->.
(•">) Rough form fins.
(6) Anneal and sand blast.
(71 Turn tops of fins, finish form
first nine fins, finish tops of first nine
fin.-<, and polish same.
(8) Drill hole for sparking-plug boss.
(9) Chamber hole, and weld in spark-
ing-plug boss.
(10) Finish bore working barrel,
chamber mouth of bore.
(11) Form diameter at crank-ca.^e
end, face shoulder and form grinding
recess, form remainder of fins, finish
valve-thread recess, poli.sh remaining
fins.
(12) Cut valve thread.
(l.S) Slot-mill keyway casteliations.
(14) Drill oil holes.
(15) Grind crank-case registpr.
(16) Grind working bore.

(17) Balance cylinder.
Before final finishing: the cylinders will
be annealed to remove machining
stresses. Final machining will be carried
(lut in order to bring the cylinders with-
in the standard weight limits and in ad-
dition to adjust the centre mass of the
lylinder to the right position.
Inspection will be carried out on the
finished cylinder for all final dimensions,
weight and centre of mass. The inspec-
Mon as arranged by a Government de-
partment, assuming that they have no
.ontrol, or are not aware of the con-
tractor's inspection, will be as follows: —
(a) The ingot from which the bars
I will be made at the steel manufacturer's
j would be inspected, and particulars of
i ingot and analysis of the cast taken.
' During the rolling of the material the
temperatures of the rolling will be taken
occasionally. The complete bars will be
submitted for inspection, and will be
checked for dimensions in accordance
with the international standards or par-
ticulars of the order. One test piece for
I'very 20 bars will be taken, and after
working down will be normalised and a
test carried out. Each bar will then be
Rrinelled, and if within a satisfactory
agreement the bars will be passed on the
results of the test piece, and a certificate
and release note issued.
(b) On receipt of stampings the ma-
ferial will be inspected and checked
against the release note. The operations
on the stamping will be periodically in-
spected, the temperatures being checked
from time to time. The samples of the
material will be taken, and after work-
ing down to ruling dimensions will be
heat-treated with the stampings by a
test piece representing each batch of
stampings. The stampings will then be
inspected for dimensions in order to en-
sure that sufficient material is available
to allow for cleaning up. Each stamp-
ing will then be Brinelled, and if the test
piece is satisfactory, and the Brinells are
reasonably consistent, the stamping will
be passed after general inspection for
flaws, etc.
(c) On receipt at the main contrac-
tor's the stampings will be checked by
the release note, and released to the
machine shops. No further inspection
will be carried out beyond the transfer-
•■nce on the stamping number. The fin-
ished cylinder can be identified with an
individual stamping. The finished cylin-
y der will be inspected for all dimensions,
weight and centre of mass, and if satis-
factory will be stamped and approved.
The action which a Government In-
spection Department would probably
take with the ideal firms would be as fol-
lows: —
(a) The checking of the analysis of
the cast will be taken, periodic checking
of the firm's own inspection would be
made a? regards rolling temperatures,
working, etc. The test pieces would be
pulled and material passed as usual
procedures.
(b) At the stamper's periodic check-
ing would be made of working tempera-
tures, and a check test of the heat
ment made periodically at random, and
Brinell report for each stamping exam-
ined.
Cylinders will be selectively examined
for flaws and general dimensions, and
finally accepted and released to the main
contractor.
The main contractor's inspection fix-
tures would be examined, periodic selec-
tive check testing be made between oper-
ations, and also of the finally finished
article. Should any defects be discover-
ed the whole of the batch concerned
would be examined, otherwise only sel-
ective examinations would be made.
On final erection of the cylinders into
the engine, check examination will be
made to see that the various fits are
satisfactory, and should any of these
points show discrepancies, a detailed ex-
amination will be made of all stock in
stores. All spares, unless erected in the
engines at the main contractors, would
be examined in detail for the dimensions
aff'ecting the fit. functioning, or the
strength of the part.
System of Production of Cast Aluminum
Piston
Material — Aluminum Alloy, to Specifi-
cation of L. 8. — When casting, three test
pieces are cast for every eight pistons.
The pistons are numbered when taken
from the sand, and the test pieces, re-
moved in the fettling shop, are sent to
the experimental departments for tensile
test and chemical analysis. If these
tests are satisfactory and approved by
the A.I.D., the pistons are released and
pass into the foundry view'-room. Here
they are inspected for blow-holes, and
the inside diameter of the barrel calli-
pered for size; the correctness of posi-
tion of the gudgeon-pin hole is also test-
ed on the surface table. If approved
they pass from this room into the cast-
ing store.
The store issues them to the machine
shop on a machining order, and in this
shop they go through the following oper-
ations: —
(1) Rough machining outside, both on
sides and crown. Viewed at site of lathe
for blow-holes, etc.
(2) Finishing turning on sides and
crown, leaving only enough metal for
grinding operation.
(.3) Bored at mouth and faced down
to correct depth from inside crown.
(4) Rough drilling of gudgeon-pin
hole to 1 in., and facing bosses inside.
(.5) Cutting and rolling two ring
grooves and scraper ring groove.
(6) Drilling hole for set pin.
Thev now pass into the grinding shop
for— "
(7) Grinding true to size on the out-
side diameter, and return to the machine
shop for the following operations:—
(8) Fini.shing facing and rolling
crown.
(9) Milling oil groove.
(10) Finishing boring gudgeon-pin
hole, and then into the machine shop
test-room, where
(11) They are tested under 10 lb.
per square inch water pressure.
At this point they again return to the
machine shop for —
(12) Burnishing gudgeon-pin hole.
(13) Drilling drain holes around
scraper-ring groove.
(14) Number rolled on.
After all operations from the second
to the fourteenth they are taken to the
section view-table for inspection, and
finally are weighed, have the weight
stamped on them, and then are —
(15) Polished on crown.
This completes the machine shop oper-
ations, and they pass into the final view-
room before going into the finished store,
accompanied with view note. This view
note bears the chief inspector's stamp,
without which the pistons would not be
inspected in the final view-room.
The finishing store then issues them
to the erecting shop, where they are fit-
ted to the connecting rods, etc.. the oper-
ations being: —
(16) Rings fitted on and lapped.
(17) Assembling with connecting
rods.
They are then finally viewed, tested
for correct weight, and passed on to the
charge hand, who again inspects them
generally all over before he allows them
to be assembled in an engine.
After assembling in the engine they
pass on with the engine to the test
bench, and then to the stripping shop,
where they are very carefully examined
for scoring and wear on rings, etc., and
the gudgeons pins removed and replaced
before they are again assembled with
the engine for the final test. If this
test is satisfactory the engine then passes
on the despatch shop for despatch.
Engine Crankshaft
Material — Forged Steel, to Specifica-
tion K. 1. — The crankshafts are stamped
in Sheffield, have test pieces cut from the
ends of the shaft, and are tested there
before being approved and released by
the A.I.D. for despatch to contractors.
They are issued by the stores at the
contractors to the machine shop, on a
machining order, where they go through
the following operations: —
(1) Centre shaft.
(2) Saw off' test pieces and stamiJ

IN taking up the manufacture of a
line of compressors in a shop which
had previously been devoted to the
pro<luction of smaller machinery it was
found necessary to get out the first ma-
chine as there were no other shops in
the town capable of handling the work,
and it was absolutely impossible to ob-
tain new tools in time. The largest
lathe with which the shop was c(|uippc<l
was a 32 in. and the headstock was block-
ed up with the two se:s of raising blocks.
As the work was only boring and fac-
ing, which was comparatively light work,
the extreme height of the headstock did
not interfere with taking good, heavy
cuts.
The tailstock and carriage were remov-
ed and the bed clamped directly to the
ways, resting on metal pieces, bringing
the center to the desired height. The
boring bar screwed on the spindle and
was provided with a travelling head car-

rying the boring tools. The travel of
this head wa.s controlled by a screw ly-
ing in a slot milled the entire length of
the bar. The outer end of this screw
carried a gear which engaged with a
small pinion which rotated freely in the
center, supporting the outer end of the
bar. This pinion was milled on the end
of a piece which extended back into the
center and a hole was drilled both
through the pinion shank and the center
proper. When a pin was inserted
through this hole the pinion was held
to a central flange. A crude universal
joint was arranged on each end of the
bar from the radial which allowed suffi-
cient range to drill several holes at the
one setting. The drill was fed by the
handwheel shown at the end. The dis-
tance from the center of the drill to the
center of the pipe was, of course, 'the
radius of the stud circle. In spite of this
rather crude method of doing this work,
it was completed in good time and with
perfect satisfaction.
Needless to say, machinery was pur-
s a.ionary and .he rotation of the bor-
ing bar about the center caused the gear
on the end of the screw to also turn niid
thus move the boring head. To stop the
feed, it was only necessary to remove the
pin when '.he pinion in the cpntor wouM
liirri freely.
It being impossible to provide any ex-
ternal support for the center, a casting
was made which extended across the bed J
and was held to same by studs, the cast-
ing being provi<led with screw.s whereby
it could be adjusted ver:ically to secure
alignment with the boring bar. It was,
of course, necessary to drill the holes foi-
these stU('s after the bod was lined up
mi tlie hithe but this was a small matter
with an electric drill. After boring out
the bed for the crosshead the end was
faced with the facing head shown at the*
inner end of the bar.
Af;er getting the machine on the lathe,
the actual boring and facing time was
practically no longer than what it after-
ward was on a regular borin'r mill. Of
course, it was rather awkward to line up
properly and the operator wa.^ at a slight
disadvantage due to the height of the
work.
I'nique Portable Drill
The cylinder was fastened to the bed
by studs placed horizontally and the
most logical machine for doing this work
was, of course, a horizontal drill press,
as the extreme weight of the casting
made it practically impossible to place it
on end in a pit and there was also no pit
available at the time. An old black-
smith's drill head was obtained and
mounted on the three-inch pipe attached

placed on the market, but the methods
used only go to show the versatility of
modern machine tools and operators as
well.

used only on those particular jobs on
which he desired costs. To keep a record
of purchases Nos. 2 and 3 were used in
different instances.
A card index, containing card No. 4
was maintained in a certain pattern vault
and only one man was allowed to either
some time and the card was then trans-
ferred to the obsolete file. When the jig
was finally destroyed, the card was sent to
the office in order that the proper charge
could be made. Where there was any pos-
sible chance for confusion a freehand
sketch of the jig was made on the back of
the card.
Turning to card 39, shows that size B is a

A similar drafting room record is shown

filed in large envelopes or folios. This is
very similar to No. 6 except that there the
prints were filed according to number

nmn has made hut very little elTort to de-

Man as a rule acts after he thinks; and
th.it the depth and reach of his thinking
has been feeble and of little extent i.-s
proven by the necessity (at least to him)
of the constijnt repetition of wars and up-
heavals of revolutionary character. And
because of this, because these thinps have
been repeated over and over n^ain, their

while the tipress still exists in woman, the
wolf in man. there is little to distinguish
man as beint: above the prade of animal.
or in b«inp a superior actor on the world's
staire.
When we .<ay man is crude and is low
on the scale of progress, and are asked
to explain how and why, we can, in a man-
ner, anticipate this same question by re-
ferrinsr back to those who existed and took
their turn at life a thousand years ago.
The plain truth is that with all our
vauntinps of intellectual superiority, and
the little we have achieved and pro-
cressed, we still border on the pale of
crudity. Insanitary practices that still
exist, and neplect of that in which we are
deeply calloused must, to a future race,
stamp ns as untutored, abnormal and
crude, even as those who slew their pame
with japped stones and roasted it on
spikes are to us now. We call this an en-
liphtened ape, but our methods and re-
finements are no whit hipher than those
in the dark apes. Our fears are just as
stronp, our superstitions and ipnorance
just as deep; we are still as quick to quake
before each thunder-clap or new celestial
phenomenon as did our forbears in days
of old.
The World Waits Not
The world propounds a new problem
every hour. No waitinp, no pettinp ready
or takinp our time method, is poinp to put
any of us in a class fitted to probe and dis-
sect with any depree of success in the
solution of these. If we persist in moving
at our old pait we will never rise from our
condition, never enter the new era that
is only waitinp to materialize when our
enerpizing forces are put into play. We
are carelessly neglecting, putting off and
leaving for some future generation of
men and women to do that which we
could readily do ourselves in the present
day.
Out of the distant past we have slowly
evolved — but all too slowly. Under a mis-
conception we have dreamed of an Eldor-
ado, a sweet by and by, a land flowing with
milk and honey, which wo would fall heirs
10 when we shed this mortal coil. The fact
IS, tJ>e city of the blessed with its street.s
of Kolden pavement ami its crowns of
nlory could be easily broUKhl down to us
and establisheil un.lor a wise and select
administration right here now if we
would quit cheating ourselves with these
uncultured notions, con\c right <lown to
business and get busy. There should be
no mis-spent years, no wasted lives, no
moral weakness, no down-in-the-gutter
type of human being. Kvery man should
ho strong; every woman should be strong;
every child should be strong; there should
be no re.servation required on this earth
for a weakling or a pigmy.
That we can become a higher and
greater type; that our refinements and
accomplishments can be surpassed beyond
all that we at present can conceive; that
we can ntUiin to a stjite of unrivalling
wealth and grandeur is no idle or delu-
sive boast. And all it requires of us is
persistent and energetic action on the
part of every human being. No delayable,
no-lay ing-aside-and-wai ting-awhile kind
of motion; but instead a vitalizing, con-
stant perseverance, that gathers in, and
gathers abundantly what we incessantly
and determinedly must strive for. The
earth should be a hive, and everyone a
positive, strenuous beo-ing.
The Fruits of Labor
No labor should be too large, no task too
small, no distance too great to compass, no
depth too low to explore. Out of the
bowels of the earth, out of the sea and air,
could we bring untold treasures and sub-
stance, if we only would begin to stir up
our energy. There is no plant or flower
but would disclose its secret; no mineral
or quartz but would yield forth its value;
no sweeping wind, no atmospheric element
but would extend and render its health
and wealth to us striving mortals. Are
you willing and wakeful to the splendor
of these possibilities? Are you willing to
move in all this grand assembly of earth's
products? Are you willing to sharpen
the edge of your intellect? Are you will-
ing to plunge forward with powerful
momentum? Are you willing to pass your
hand through the shower of sparks that
flit and fly from the anvil of life, forging
a link to the chain of this steady movement
from the morn's first ray to the evening's
glow? Can you stand unpropped, un-
swayed by useless strifes and turmoils?
Can you shoulder a load, solve a burden,
bridge the gulf of ignoble pursuits and
low aims? Have you the forwardness,
the straightwayness to ends that are
primed with vigor and push? If this be
you, then come. Step forward where an,
as yet uninhabited, arena awaits you.
Come where your faith is worthy of your
steel. Come unto your own. Unmindful
of your comfort, your sleep or your meals.
Make your existence worthy of the flesh
that adorns you. Ascend a mountain
peak, grasp a cloud, place guide-posts
along aerial pathways, and become a satel-
lite in the firmament of the heavens.
Awake to-day to your unfathomable
possibilities. Feel the great stir within
blood and sinew, in vein and ligament
Walk daily t'orlh with constructive zeal
— with constructive ideas — with inde-
structible calm. Over and over again re-
peat to yourself, that youth is nothing,
that old age is nothing, that only live
human activity is of consequontial mo-
ment. Set your face towards the broad
sunlight of unquenchable energetic fires,
and do the big things and live the big life.
Under the vast dome of sky over the
wide expanse of earth— no matter where
you are, move onward and forward in
some great human endeavoi-. lie punc-
tual to the second in your labor unswerv-
able, unconquerable and bristling with ac-
tivity. Be zealous and unafraid! Wholly
determined! Wholly invincible and ener-
getic! Be a real, live human being, high
in your aims, high in the service that
calls you. Be of that faith which never
wavers, falters nor halts. Be above the
common order that shuns and shirks.
Bowl down that which obtrudes. Stand
firm where others weaken. Upheave the
dens of darkness. Be a glittering light in
unceasing action, a being of heroic mould.

DUTCH shipbuilders are required to give
details not only of all ship construction
.ind repair, but of the ultimate destina-
tion of the vessels. The shipibuilder or
owner receiving German iron and steel
must sign a contract, valid for five years
after the war, that he will not sell any
ship without giving Germany the right
of refusal, and that during five years
• ifter the war he will not aliow his ships
to be employed, directly or indirectly,
for the benefit of Germany's present
enemies. The Dutch Government Iron
and Steel Committee has advised build-
ers and owners not to accept these last
two conditions.

WHEN selecting a cooling liquid the
matters which have to be considered are
the nature of the material to be cut and
the kind of tool used, the effect of the
lubricant, its freedom from liability to
uum and clog pipes, and, as important as
either, its cost when a large establish-
ment is concerned. But this is a relative
matter, since if a costly oil or mixture
be selected it may well prove more econ-
omical than a cheaper one if an eflicient
recovery plant is installed.

A TANK steamer is building in a ship-
yard on the Delaware whose engine-
room, says The Marine Journal, will
present the novelty of having no recipro-
cating machinery of any kind. The pro-
pelling engine will consist of a low and
a high-pressure turbine geared to a single
propeller, a surface condenser with a
centrifugal pump driven by a turbine,
two centrifugal hot-well pumps also
driven by a turbine, and a rotary oil
pump for the turbine and gears, driven
from the main gears. This is the first
instance, adds the journal, where rotary
machinery has been used throughout a
ship, which marks an epoc in shipbuild-
ing history.

The constitution of industrial enterprise is largely depart-
mental — "spokes in a wheel." This series of articles has for its
object the featuring in a racy, interesting and instructive fash-
ion, the training, experience and achievement of those who
to-day are transmitting, effectively, energy in their capacity as
"spokes in the wheels" of our metal-working establishm.ents.
WILLIAM JAMES McSHANE
NOT the least prominent of those
sections of the Dominion affected
by the industrial activity of the
past three years is the province of New
Brunswick. While affected to a con-
siderable degree by the demand for
munitions, the urgency-inspired devel-
opment of shipbuilding has, to a greater
degree perhaps, been responsible for the
present state of activity in this particu-
lar section of the busy East. When the
influence of agricultural and allied inter-
ests in a generally prosperous district
are considered, the ultimate demands on
establishments doing a general engin-
eering business are both large and
varied. Considerable interest, therefore,
attaches to the personality of the subject
of these remarks, whose lifetime associ-
ation with a leading New Brunswick
engineering firm has resulted in his
reaching a responsible and trusted posi-
tion therewith.
Canadian born of Canadian parents,
William James McShane first saw the
light in St. John, in the year 1865, and
to-day, after 35 years in the service of
T. McAvity & Sons, discharges the
duties of chief draftsman and pattern-
making superintendent. While much of
Mr. McShane's success is no doubt due
to the guiding influence and tuition of
his father who held the position before
him, it is no disparagement to his par-
ent to remark that the developments of
recent years have brought greatly in-
creased responsibilities and demanded a
degree of judgment and resource large-
ly exceeding the old days when our
Spoke w-as absorbing the rudiments of
his lifework.
The day schools of St. John were his
source of knowledge until the start of
his apprenticeship with McAvitys in
1883, at the age of, eighteen. The
regular 5-year period of training was
gone through by Mr. McShane, and the
fact that this formative period of his
life was spent under the supervision of
his father has doubtless been a matter
of mutual benefit to our Spoke and his
employers on many occasions since.
Doubtless Mr. McShane reasoned that a
part of the country which was good
enough for a firm like McAvity (they
had been established almost half a cen-
WILLIAM JAMES McSHANE.
tury when he joined them) was quite
good enough for him, and the determina-
tion to do well whatever came to his
hand accounts for his following the ex-
ample of his employers and becoming
also, so far as lay in his power, long
established.
The name of McAvity is a household
word in the Maritimes, as will be gath-
ered from the nature of their business.
Established in 1837, they developed with
the country, operating the Vulcan Iron
Works and a separate plant devoted to
brass work, producing plumbers', steam
fitters' and engineers' supplies while
recently a machine shop of considerable
size has been rendered necessary to
meet their requirements. The wide field
of activity open to a studious, resource-
ful and energetic person in the position
filled by our Spoke is apparent, and that
Mr. McShane fully availed himself of
the opportunities offered is evidenced
by the numerous inventions, etc., in the
various lines produced by McAvity.
Numerous types of valves, fittings,
electric railway semaphores and cor-
poration specialties are the fruit of his
efforts or bear the impress of his influ-
ence in some form or other.
The close attention to work necessary
to insure such a record may account for
the comparatively small amount of
traveling done by Mr. McShane but the
requirements of his position did not
prevent him from following the advice
contained in the old saying about "all
work and no play, etc.," and his record
in rowing matches and similar sports is
evidence of his physical as well as men-
tal ability.
Our Spoke is of the Liberal persuasion
in politics, is Roman Catholic in creed,
and beyond being a Knight of Colambus
has few society affiliations. His belief
in the value of temperance is well
seconded by his efforts for the cause,
and he acknowledges that much of his
success has been due to his close ties
with the Father Matthews Temperance
Society. He has been bereaved through
the death of his wife, and resides at 27
Duke St., St. John. N.B.
In speaking of his career, Mr. Mc-
Shane attributes most of his success to
having "acquired practical experience, at
the same time developing the ability to
back it up by the study of technical
books and journals, the former to keep
the rudiments of knowledge always
fresh, and the latter to maintain close
touch with recent developments in pro-
ducts and equipment, and acquire a
knowledge of the methods and devices
employed by others."
^
TENDENCY IN MACHINE TOOL
DEVELOPMENT
THE effectiveness of any specific ma-
chine in the modern industrial estab-
lishment is measured by its ability
to do work for which it is intendel with
the greatest possible economy, while
features of permanency and adherence
to standard and approved design may be
of secondary importance, according to
Joseph Homer in an article in a recent
number of "Engineering."
Various occurrences and movements
of magnitude may contribute to render
excellent machine tools antiquated in the
sense of being no longer sources of pro-
fit, and this long before they manifest
marked signs of wear. Conditions arise
which result from changed views re-
specting methods of tooling. Others are
caused directly by the advent of new in-
dustries. Both are largely responsible
for many alterations in the designs of
the later machine tools. Both have been
extremely active during recent years.
Each aspect would offer a tempting field
for a more extensive treatment than can
be ventured on in connection with the

Thus there are now sevemi diverse

plane surfaces of irrc>rular outlines —
thfl protiuction of which Onco entailed
much teriioUt) correction by hand work
and templet. Such are now machined
rsiadih,- with a .-iutliciently close approach
to accuracy, and with uniformity, in any
number of pieces. The milling and the
RTindinir machines have chanced practice
profoundly, and have taken vast quanti-
ties of work away from other tools, per-
forniin? ft. if not always with finer re-
sults, >-et with more rapidity than the
rival machines were capable of accom-
plfthinsr. Output is multiplied by the
employment of multi-spindle machines,
as drills, borinp machines and some tur-
ret lathes, in which from four to half a
dozen spindles are carried. It is also in-
creased by the proupine of several tools
in some modified designs of common
lathes, and in many box tools in turret
lathes, in vertical borincr and turnins
mills carrying several tools, in crank and
cam turnine and crrindin? machines, and
so on. In the selection of machines and
methods immemorial practice does not
count, but the ultimate results rather
are \'isualized. and methods are sub-
ordinated to them. Times are carefully
collated, with the object of savins min-
utes or even seconds. The expense of
fixtures, and even the high cost of addi-
tional machines, are brouTht into their
true perspective instead of being allowed
to bar the way to the real economies of
production. These changes are revolu-
tionary in character, and they would im-
press the mind more powerfully than
they do but for the fact that they are
growing familiar to the generation that
is being trained in them. But the older
men. who witness the inevitable displace-
ment of handicraft in which they were
trained and exercised, marvel at the
banishment of individual initiative in
machine-tool methods by the automatic
and semi-automatic systems, the cards,
and the routing methods.
Influence of >'ew Industries
Changes which arise directly out of
the advent of new indusf-ies are even
more prominent than are those that are
consequent on divergent views of me-
thods of tooling. The growth of new
mnnufacture.s in ii market already
crowde«t with rival (irm.i compel* a keen
inspection of methotls which ulTord some
ihintr more than a merely iiilerestintj;
study in alternative wuys. Their adop-
tion, or nccleot, in their ultimate results
may involve success, or logs, or even tot.'il
failure. Not only are ilitTerences in times
occupied by nperutions in question, but
limits or deirrees of inaccuracy are in-
volveit. Sometimes the nttninment of the
results desireil will entail ;i larger ex-
penditure of time, in others less, per-
hap» very much loss. But the ultimate
issue is the thinir that matters. The con-
ditions that are imposed, the results to
be achieved, control the methods to be
adopted.
The newer industries which are exer-
cising most influence in controllinir the
work of the machine shop are chiefly
those that are concerned with the manu-
facture of all kinds of internal-combus-
tion engines, the manufacture of steam
turbines, that of electrical machinery,
and, now partly overshadowing these, of
munitions of war, which includes
mechanisms of many kinds made in vast
(lUintities, many articles being ordered
bv the hundred thousand. For each of
these nriny highly specialized tools,
many absolutely unique designs of ma-
chines are employed in addition to large
numbers of modified types of the kinds
that are regularly standardized. The
problems which have been exercising thf
manufacturers of motor engines ant!
V hides and aeroplane details have had
to be faced under greater difficulties by
the firms who have been engaged in
munition work.
Single Purpose Results
One of the remarkable phases of the
solution of the problem is the enormous
development of what are termed the
"single-purpose" machines, or those
which are specialized to the last degree.
Many of these only perform one opera-
tion, some include two or more opera-
tions which are identical or allied in
character. Equally striking has been the
effect of the extensive employment of
fixtures and of jigs. and. again, the gen-
eral use of the tools of high-speed steel.
The influences which these three modern
movements have on an accelerated out-
put, and, in consequence, on the services
of the machine tools, may be noted
briefly.
The single purpose machines are big
developments of an earlier movement.
Their growth has been immensely quick-
ened . and favored by the intensive pro-
duction of munitions. The problem of
how to secure the most rapid output has
been the paramount one, and any tools,
however novel in design and without
precedent, that might help to gain this
end have been welcomed. These ma-
chines are justifying their existence, be-
cause thev increase output by sub-
division of tasks, and becau=e thev en-
able the large contingent of unskilled
and semi-trained labor which the war
has attracted to the shops to be utilized.
This movement, which, though not new,
has ill its swift growth assumed the
aspect of a novel phenomenon, is greatly
oxeriMsing the judgment of those who
have to accommodate shop arrangements
to changed conditions. One might enum-
erate more than a hundred new designs
of this class, the products of the last
three years, for dealing with nuiniLions
alone, to perform only one or two, or a
few, related tasks.
The influence which these single-pur-
pose tools are exercising will not cease
with the termination of the war. The
question ot the position which they maj.'
occupy in the future is of less import-
ance than that of the retention or the
aliiindonment of the system of which
Ihey are an essential clement. Many of
these machines, and others, embodiments
of the same methods, might be readily
enlisted in new services in the intensive
industrial war that must supervene.
They are essential if the dilution of labor
is to be retained. The principal machines
the work of which has been encroached
on by the single-purpose machines are
the lathes, followed closely by that of the
drills. A few observations on the firstj
named will show why the single-purpose
machines are, in the opinion of many
competent judges, to be preferred to the
more complicated general-purpose de-
signs.
Unskilled Labor Unsuitable
.4t the commencement of the war there
arose a huge demand for common turret
lathes-, which the supply was inadequate
to meet. It was rightly believed that the
possession of these would enable an im-
mense output to be secured. But two re-
quirements are essential if the best re-
sults are to be secured from such lathes
— a supply of skilled tool makers and
tool setters, and operators who have ac-
quired some experience in their working.
The supply of each of these require-
ments proving insufficient for the abnor-
mal demands made afforded the oppor-
tunity and emphasized the necessity for
the introduction of the single-purpose
machines. These are vastly cheaper to
produce than turret lathes are, and thev
exact the minimum amount of tool set-
ting, and can be operated by new atten-
dants after a very little instruction.
Although turret lathes are automatic
or semi-automatic in their movements,
an operator who is neglectful or insuffi-
ciently experienced may easily allow
tools to become slightly displaced or
damaged, and by continuing to use them
while in these conditions spoil a con-
siderable volume of work before the
g-dugers detect the fact. Especially is
this the case with the more elaborated
boxes of tools that are fitted with slides,
setting-up ■ screws, tightening screws,
and often with multiple tools. The more
numerous these fittings are, the more
liable is trouble to result when a neglect-
ful, inattentive or half-trained man is in
charge. Another fact to be observed is
that the time spent in preparing and set-
ting up batteries of tools and the fixtures
or boxes in which they are held is a large
item, since manv trials may have to be

PROGRESS IN NEW EQUIPMENT
A Record of New and Improved Machinery and Accessories for the Machine,
Pattern, Boiler and Blacksmith Shops, Planing Mill, Foundry and Power Plant
NEW DESIGN TOOL ROOM LATHE
IN the tool room lathe illustrated in
the accompanying engxavings the
Davis Machine Tool Co., Rochester,
N.Y., have incorporated refinements in
design and construction which make it
particularly capable of meeting the re-
quirements of a modern tool room where
accuracy, convenience, power and sim-
plicity are demanded.
The headstock design involves the use
of a heavy one-piece casting, having
solid boxes with front and rear walls
brought up to the centre line of the
spindle, thus tying the whole head to-
gether in a most substantial manner.
Gear guards are made to be integral
with the head and form a cover for the
cone which makes a safety device in
conformity with the laws of most States.
In the top of the gear guard is mounted
a brake for stopping rotation of spihdle,
a device much appreciated by skilled
operators.
The spindle made from high grade
crucible steel is turned all over and
ground to micrometer size, and runs in
heavy phosphor bronze boxes scraped to
fit and to accurate alignment. Large oil
pockets are cored in the walls under the
centre of each bearing, and the oil is dis-
tributed from them by rings, thus fur-
nishing a constant and even lubrication.
Front spindle bearing is tapered, and
wear is taken up by drawing spindle
into taper. The rear bearing is keyed to
and slides on spindle, and is adjusted by
a collar on the end which draws same
into taper bronze box. End thrust is
taken by hardened steel washers and
S. K. F. self-aligning ball bearings. A
1% in. hole is bored entire length of

ARRANGED BELOW SPINDLE.
REAR VIEW OF LATHE SHOWING THREE-POINT SUPPORT,
TAPER ATTACHMENT, AND CLEAN APPEARANCE
spindle with front end bored to No. 8
Jarno taper.
The back gears are placed under the
head stock at the front end of the
spindle. This arrangement applies the
drive from the cone through the gears
without the long eccentric shaft and quill
used on all cone-driven lathes, thus elim-
inating all torsional strains. Back gears
are brought into mesh by a handle placed
at the front of the lathe, making it un-
necessary for the opera-
tor to reach over the cone
as in the old construction.
The carriage has a
bearing on the ways of
19% in., with a cross
bridge of 6 in. wide, all
surfaces being accurately
scraped to bearings by
surface plates. Compound
rest swivel base is grad-
uated and provided with
four clamping bolts for
lacking some in position.
This construction permits
very heavy cuts to be
taken without and deflec-
tion in the rest. Full
length taper gibs are pro-
vided in both cross and
compound slides with end
screw and adjustment for
taking up wear.
A double plate type of
apron is used with two
bearing supports for all
shafts. Rack pinion
stud can be withdrawn when lathe
is used for screw-cutting. A cen-
tral oil pocket is arranged to lubricate
all bearings from one point. Longi-
tudinal and cross feeds are controlled
from apron and both can be instantly
released under heaviest cuts, and an in-
terlocking' gear is provided to prevent
both the feed and the half nut being en-
gaged at the same time. Feeds are ob-
tained through an independent feed rod
and the quick change gear box, without
the use of lead screw. They are 36 in
number and vary from 4V2 to 240. Feed
rod can be locked in or out by means of
clutch placed next to the gear box.
Screw-cutting equipment provides for
a range of threads from 1% to 80 per
in., including llVa, instantly obtained
through the quick change gear box.
Thirty-six leads regularly supplied, but
others can be cut by changing gears on
the quadrant. Lead screw is made fron.
machinery steel 1% in. diameter, turned
all over, and is guaranteed for accui-acy;
the maximum error allowed being .001
in. in 12 in. All gears in gear box are
cut from solid bar stock on a gear
shaper.
Reverse mechanism for the carriage
is operated by lever, placed at right
hand of apron, which controls a sliding
clutch under head stock giving right or
left hand travel to the carriage through
a set of accurately planed bevel gears.
This arrangement .permits spindle al-
ways to run forward, and thus doubles.

UNIVERSAL wood-boring MACHINE.
UNIVERSAL WOOU-BOKING
MACHINE
THE universal vertical and horizontal
wood-boring machine shown in the ac-
companying engraving is the product of
the Oliver Machinery Co., Grand Rap-
ids, Mich. It is designed to meet the
requirements of pattern-making and
other wood-working shops, being adapt-
able to heavy boring work, as well as to
a variety of jobs such as drilling holes
in metals and doing the work of a rout-
crk, shaper, buzz planer, when equipped
with the proper cutters.
The column is a single casting about
8 ft. high, bolted to a sole
plate and fitted with both
horizontal and vertical
spindles, each capable of
drilling holes 3 in. dia. and
under. The vertical spindle
is 1% in. dia. and slides in
a sleeve formed by the pro-
jecting end of the driving
pulley, which ends are
fitted with ball .bearings.
The tool end of the spindle
is bored to receive a % in.
straight shank tool or may,
when specified, be thread-
ed to receive a 3-jawed
chuck. The upper end of
the spindle is connected
through a thrust bearing
and link to the lever arm
which is operated by either
foot ti-eadle or hand pull
to feed the tool to the
work. The vertical travel
of the spindle is 12 in.; its
pulley dimensions .5 in. by
4V2 in., and speed 3.000 rev.
per min. when adapted for
single speed only.
The horizontal s.pindle
and ball bearing arrange-
ment is similar to the ver-
tical, but is supported by
means of a bracket attach-
ed to the column at a
height of 16 in. above
the Uible top, with the tiii)lc ul
its lowest position. It is driven by u
pulley l ',ii in. by 4 in. at a speed of 3,-
000 K.r.M. if supplied with one speeii
only, and has a forward travel of 7 in.
Lontrollcd by a foot treadle and coiled
spring which latter returns it to normal
position.
The IS in. by 30 in. Uible has vertical
adjustment of 17 in. obtained by hand
wheel and feed screw. It is pivoted on
both ends of a curved slide arranged at
right angles to the pivots, the amount
of tilt in either direction being such that
the table can be inclined up to 10 deg.
to or from the column and 30 deg. cross-
wise, the angle of setting being read
from the graduated .scale on the rockers.
Two types of this machine are sup-
plied — single speed and four speed —
which (iifTer only in respect to the coun-
tershaft arrangement and both types
may be furnished with from 3 to .') h.p.
motor drive as the work demands. Stan-
ilard etpiipment consisting of five 6 in.
twist bits of sizes, Vt in., % in., '/4 in.,
% in., and % in. is supplied with every
machine. The single speed machine oc
cupies 70 in. by 38 in. floor space and
weighs 2,000 pounds; the four speed belt
driven machine occupies 73 in. by 38 in.
floor space and weighs 2,300 pounds.
RATCHET TAP WRENCH
THE accompanying engraving illustrates
a ratchet tap wrench which has recently
been placed on the market by the Moss-
Ochs Co., Cleveland, O. It is made in
two sizes: No. 1, from to Vi in.; No. 2,
from V* in. to % in.
The device is of strong and substan-
tial construction and consists of a chuck
mounted on a shank provided with a
double acting ratchet. The T-handle fit-
ted to the upper part of the shaak i.';

-MACHINE SHOP RESPONSIBLE FOR
MARINE ENGINEERING
PROGRESS
DESPITE the marked advantages of
hydraulic and electrical transmission
systems for ship propulsion, the use of
mechanical gearing seems destined to
become the most widespread on the all
important grounds of economy and gen-
eral applicability. The reasons for such
a belief were advanced by Alexander
Cleghom in his presidential address to
the Institution of Engineers and Ship-
builders in Scotland when he reviewed
the main features of progress in marine
propelling machinery during the past
ten years.
Generally speaking, the recipi-ocating
engine about a decade ago had given
place to the direct turbine for warchip.
fast liner, and Channel types; had com
promised with it for vessels of the inter-
mediate class; and had refused to re-
cognize it as having any claims on
that extensive class comprising the low-
speed types. But even under these con-
ditions the solution to the problem of
achieving the general applicability of
the turbine had come into view through
mechanical gearing. Ten years ago this
was in little more than its embryonic
stage; about three years later it had
reached the experimental stage; then
followed rapidly its promotion to the
proposal lists and the stage of tentative
application by the more courageous.
Now it occunies the proud position of
the standard type, demonstrating its
universal application by the rapid dis-
placement of the direct coupled turbine,
the combination system and the reci-
procator from the respective positions
in which they had established them-
selves. Its superiority over all these
types, in the essentials of economy,
weight, and space, is unquestioned, and
C A N A I) I A N M A C H I N E R Y -
its reliability is at least as certain.
Concurrently the growth of the rival
methods of hydraulic and electric trans-
mission is seen, but while each of these
systems has its particular advantages
over the geared type, neither can meet
it on the all important grounds of econ-
omy and general applicability. The
mechanical system at present makes the
pace and that pace at present seems
likely to be rather too severe for the
other forms.
But gearing in its rapid advance has
hardly halted at the single spur ami
pinion drive. The double arrangement
is now coming largely into use and this
apparently minor development is ob-
viously the special demand of the slow
speed ship wherein the reduction ratio
for suitable revolutions of the screw is
very large, though its utility is not con-
fined to the low power, low revolution
equipment. There has also been a mark-
ed revival in the marine use of super-
heated steam. Thus the latest achieve-
ment of this period of restless progress
in steam-propelling machinery is the
superheated-geared-turbine equipment,
transcending its forerunners in practic-
ally all respects and marking an epoch
of advance without equal in marine
engineering history.

TENDENCY IN MACHINE TOOL
DEVELOPMENT
(Continued from page 630.)
made before everything is quite ship-
shape. This contrasts strongly with the
simplicity of the equipment of the single-
purpose machines.
Another aspect which concerns turret-
lathe work that may not be neglected
when comparisons are being made is
this: In order that the lathe shall be
worked at its fullest efficiency all the
tools must complete their performances
in a single cycle, or often, in smal!
pieces, two cycles may be worked off in
one revolution of the turret. But in
making up combinations of tools, the
speed is set by that of the operation
which occupies the longest period, and
the others lag. The multiple-spindle
automatics are machines of general
utility which have been ipressed very
largely into the service of shell work by
the employment of special adaptations
of tools. They labor under the same
kind of disability which affects the or-
dinary turret lathes, namely, that the
length of the major operation sets the
pace for the others. Because of these
facts the single-purpose machines have
often been preferred to the turret lathes,
even though some re-chucking and re-
setting are entailed.
And thus, since every single item in a
piece of work — a motor part, an engine
detail, a shell section — may be the sub-
ject of alternative treatment, the indivi-
dual selection of methods must uHi-
nntely be determined bv the character
of the machine tools which happen to be
already available, or which can be ob-
tained with the lenst del^y; or. if the
choice is not limited, bv those which are
most adiintable to the class of labor to
be obtained and to the production of a
maximum output.

"Well, I'd be ashamed if I had as bald
a head as you. Look at my head of
hair!" "I just want to ask you one ques-
tion." "Yes?" "Did you ever see grass
growing on a busy street?"
Pat, who is "somewhere in France,"
had just received a letter from ould
Ireland. Being unable to read, he called
in the aid of the chaplain, who readily
agreed to decipher it for him.
But Pat was not wholly happy.
Drawing closer to the reverend gentle-
man, and lowering his voice to a whisper,
he said:
"I hope it's not angry ye'll be, sorr,
but as the matter is of a very private
nature, do you moind puttin' your
fingers in your ears, sorr, whilst you are
reading it out?"
When Slapdash Jones went home for
the holidays the first thing his mother
took out of the trunk was an overcoat,
and on it was pinned a pawnbroker's
ticket he had inadvertently omitted to
remove.
"Halloa! Ha, ha!" cried Slapdash.
"They must have forgotten to take this
off at the Smith dance when I left it in
the cloak room. Eh — what?"
A moment later his mother took out
his evening trousers. Unluckily, they,
too, bore a ticket.
"Why, Slapdash, dear," she exclaimed,
"you surely didn't leave these in the
cloakroom, too?"
An officer, far from popular with his
men, coming to camp one evening, was
almost drowned in a river swollen by
recent heavy rains. He was rescued by
a private in his own regiment. The
officer was duly grateful, and asked his
preserver how he could reward him.
"The best way, sir," said the soldier.
"is to say nothing about it."
"But why?" asked the astonished
officer.
"Because, sir," was the reply, "if the
other fellows knew I'd pulled you out,
thev'd chuck me in."
A penitent-looking man was on trial
for vagrancy and disturbance of the
peace. The judge seemed inclined to be
lenient with him.
"What was the prisoner doing when
you arrested him?" he said to the
policeman.
"He was having a very heated argu-
ment with a cab driver, your honor?"
"But that doesn't prove that he was
the worse for liquor," the judge said.
"Many sober people have arguments
with cab drivers."
"So they do, your honor," said the
policeman, "but in this case there was
no cab driver."

FIN.VL reports coming to hand as these lines arc
written indicate that aRain, as on previous occasions,
the Dominion has done what was expected of it, and,
havinp assured the twofold success of the Victory Loan,
may now turn to other than financial efforts with renewed
enerxy and eorrespondintr but long looked for success.
Beyond all question, the ultimate fate of every indi-
vidual is hourly approachinpr final decision. Where the
lives of nations are measured in thousands of years, of
empires in hundreds of years, the months niarkintr the
duration of the present war are as days and weeks of
battle as minutes. Viewed in retrospect in the yet dis-
tant future, the efforts now put forth by many of us will
assume their true proportions in the struggle, and that,
which in these few fleeting days seems worthy of admira-
tion, may then well receive little more than scant acknow-
ledgment at the hands of historians.
Much stress is laid by present-day economists on the
necessity of being prepared for the era of reconstruction
following the war, but these are all based on hypotheses
of a more or less personal nature, and influenced entirely
by the side of the opposing forces to which the theorist
is allied. It is presumed, no doubt rightly, that industrial
activity will continue unabated till desolation and destruc-
tion are replaced by habitation and production, but, — that
w^hich is destroyed in a day» cannot always be replaced in
a day, and what is more to be considered, as the war with
its tremendous expense drags on, is, — the cost of the war
will not cease when the last gun is fired.
When the most recent German war loan was floated it
was observed that the amount of money necessary annu-
ally to pay the interest on the cost of the war to Ger-
many, up to that time, would require four times the amount
ordinarily raised in peace time by taxation of the people.
Presuming then that Germany was preparing to carry out
a program of reconstnaction, is the German nation going to
increase an already enormous cost of existence by assum-
ing further obligations for the benefit of those whom she
had overrun and pillaged? Why is it that circumstantial
reports from generally reliable sources continue to give
information regarding the systematic removal of indus-
trial assets, — plant, machinery, raw materials, yes and
human beings, too? Can this be the conduct of a nation
whom we may ngnin compete willi in tlie world's markets
without soiling our hands? Can wo, least of all, again
trade with this aggri'nation of monsters and handl'.-,
utilixc, and perhaps eat the product of their country?
No! Not so long as an unredeemed Victory Bond
ninnins in the possession of self-respecting Canadian
workmen will the memory of present events permit such
happenings, tireat as will be the benefit to our country
through the splendiil efforts of all in making the loan a
success, its effects on our national and individual policies
in the future will l>v still greater, less spectacular, but
more lasting, a constant reminder and incentive to each
one of us that the best and only the best of what is in us
must be given freely to justify the unparalleled safety and
immunity in which we go about our business.
Kfliciency, that oft-(iuoted word worn threadbare in its
meaning through misuse and overuse, must become the
motto of each bondholder. Production, not profits must
know no limits if our nation is to become an Apollo and
carry its share of the world's burden in years to come.
Credit sufficient to restore civilization to some semblance
of its former self must be given and accepted freely by
all, and the manner in which labor plays its part during
the next decade or two will in large measure determine
tlie rapidity and thoroughness of the world's recovery.
The necessity for proper government control of Victory
Loan bonds will therefore be evident, in view of the num-
ber and disposition of individual subscribers, and the
efforts of uniirincipled parties to pull off profits through
unscrupulous market manipulation cannot be too strongly
condemned, especially in the interests of future loans. The
faith of the small investor must remain unshaken always,
and if such an undesirable development is permitted to
occur, and small investors, who have been argued into
buying by the assurance that they cj-n get their money
back at any time, find that they have been deceived, it
will mean that many new investors will receive such a
bad opinion of government bonds that they will not buy
again.
The remedy is easy, — a prohibition of the sale of bonds
under a certain fixed minimum. This regulation could be
enforced as a war measure and it would work no hard-
ship to anyone, except perhaps the unpatriotic few who
are declining to buy now in the expectation that they can
pick up the issue at bargain levels a little later on.

SHIPnilLDIXG ACTIVITIES INADEQUATE TO THE
EMERGENCY
A LATE wire from Washington, D.C., covering the
first annual report of the United States Federal
Shipping Board, indicates that the present powers of
the latter are totally inadequate to meet the existing ocean
freight service emergency arising from German submar-
ine activity. Additional powers, it is claimed, are necessary,
so that control may be had of ocean freight rates, and the
regulation and supervision of shipping generally. The
Board declares that not the least of the problems confront-
ing it is the threefold one of getting, keeping and training
men for their respective tasks and duties.
Vessel tonnage of mammoth quantity is under con-
struction and on order on or near every waterway, lake
and ocean coast of the United States and Canada, yet
there is little doubt that the work as a whole is not
marked by that progress which is so desirable, because so
urgent. The frank statement by the Shipping Board of
its inability to cope with the situation without extended
powers is in no sense a confession of weakness, rather is
it a warning, originating from expert conviction to those
whom it serves, that measures more drastic be enacted
and become operative without delay.

Market Condition and Tendency
Success of Victorij Loan will benefit Canadian industries,
shell orders to he placed. Steel and metul markets quiet.
Moi
THE astonishiug success of the Victory Loan will be a source
of gratification to the country at large and will a.ssure a
continuance of prosperity. Canadian industries will benefit
through the expenditure of this vast sum of money as it will be all
spent in Canada. The munitions industry will Ijenefit to a greater
degree perhaps than any other, as a con.siderable proportion will
be appropriated for the manufacture of shells. Already arrange-
ments have been made to place large orders for shrapnel, 4.5-inch
and 6-inch shells, which will keep a number of plants actively em-
ployed for several months. As a result of these shell order.s.
another period of activity in the machine tool business may be
looked for. The iron and steel trade is rather quiet just now due
to tlie difficulty that is being experienced in obtaining material for
any purpose other than that required in the production of war
equipment. As a result private consumers are handicapped in
their manufacturing operations and output is being restricted.
The steel mills on the other hand have all the business that they
can take care of and are enjoying great prosperity. Prices of steel
products are holding firm with the sole exception of galvanized
sheets which have declined. Prices of pig-iron are unchanged. In
the States the shortage of pig-iron is becoming serious as it is cur-
tailing the output of steel. The situation in the scrap metal
market is unchanged. There is a fair demand for iron and steel
scrap but copper and other non-ferrous metals are dull. Tin is still
very scarce although some relief is looked for in the near future.
MONTREAL, Dec. 3, 1917.— The
exceptional success of the Vic-
tory Loan has been the out-
standing feature of the past week,
and this latest indication of the
people's optimism promises well
for the activity that will be ex-
pressed in the distribution of the loan to
the many requirements of the Govern-
ment for the successful prosecution of
the war during the next six months. The
near approach of the final closing of
navigation is demonstrated in the added
pressure that is being felt by the vari-
ous railroads, and already some con-
gestion is being shown in certain direc-
tions. Plants that have received orders
for 75mm. shell are actively engaged in
rearranging their equipment to manu-
facture this new type, and it is expected
that operations will be in full swing
early in the New Year.
Pig Iron
The shortage in pig iron is becoming
serious in the United States owing to
the enormous demands that are made on
the furnaces and the heavy require-
ments of the government; it would not
be surprising to see this situation more
acute dn the very near future. The
congestion of the railroads has delayed
the delivery of coke and other raw ma-
terials with the result that production
has been somewhat hampered. The sit-
uation here is virtually unchanged with

tor i« tin- at'.i'.tiile of the Amoriciin Gov-
ernment in cor- th llio rfpulal-
inir of aale an<i n. and the sub-
sequent distrihulii'!'. i<i nearly nil classes
of steel. The priority of war require-
ments is one of the chief features in the
present acute position of the steel mar-
ket, as it is practically impo.^.-jible for
manufacturers to obtain material unless
a loiaranfee is piven that the steel is to
be used for essential war purposes.
With the increasinp demands that will
likely be made for certain phases of the
war proRramme. it is anticipated that
the domestic situation will become fur-
ther disorganized. The progress of steel
shipbuildinf; in Canada has suffered to a
larfre extent by the inability to secure
sufficient plate to carry out the work that
had been planned in this connection. The
increasing activity in this direction in
the States makes it additionally difficult
for plate consumers here to acquire ma-
terial for their prospect we needs and this
branch of industrial enterprise is feel-
inp the effect of abnormal conditions
more than any other. The acute condi-
tion at the present time is intensified by
the difficulty that the trade is experienc-
ing in the delivery of material owinp to
the lack of transportation facilities, the
railroads being unable to cope with ex-
isting requirements.
With the approach of the new year
some are looking forward to a revision
of the prices that have recently been
fixed by the government, but the general
opinion seems to be that as the trade is
just beginning to adapt itself to the ne-vv
conditions, it is not thought that any
changes now contemplated -will seriously
affect the quotations that are the ruling
factor in general trading. Some con-
sideration may be given to certain de-
tails to relieve the pressure in certain
directions, but it is not expected that
the general tone of the market will un-
dergo any marked change with the com-
ing of the Xew Year. Dealers here are
still governing their operations by de-
velopments at Washington, but with the
exception that steel shipments are
harder to obtain from the States, the
situation is unchanged and prices are
well maintained; quotations being the
same as given last week.
Metals
The general market in respect to
metals is unchanged but recent develop-
ments have given a new tone to the sit-
uation. In an effort to better control
the distribution of certain metals, the
American Government have placed new
regulations on the ixnportation, to avoid
;iii\ii>inL; Hi ii speculative nature and so
insure a^ninst the possibility of accumu-
lation of surplus stocks. The feature
of the week is the position of tin, which
i> still occupying the attention of the
■ i-ade owing to the marked scarcity that
ims resulted from the inability io secure
shipping p«'rmits. Copper is quiet bul
incren.<ied sales have been reported by
small dealers. Spelter is unsettled with
users awaiting government action. Leail
is quiet and unchanged. Antimony \a
quiet but stronger. Aluminum is in les.-s
demand but firm.
Copper. — With the exception of the
slight increase in activity that has de-
veloped out of the recent concession of
the Government in connection with the
."i per cent, commission allowed to deal-
ers on small transactions, no feature has
ari.sen to change the general tone of the
situation, and the market in copper is
practically nil, trading being virtually
in the hands of the government. Recent
regulations are being strictly adhered to.
but, outside of the demands that are
made for war necessities, producers
claim thev have very little metal avail-
able for domestic consumers. The hope
is entertained in some quarters that this
condition w-ill be relieved early in the
New Year, but apparently nothing bas
as yet been done that would encourage
the trade in this connection.
If war requirements are as large as
reported, little relief can be expected by
the consumer for some time, but with
production proceeding at the present
rate, some arrangement will likely be
possible whereby the general trade will
be more freely supplied with much need-
ed metal. The local market is at pres-
ent very strong and dealers report a
difficulty in obtaining supplies. Quota-
tions are unchanged but the market has
a stronger tendency; lake and electro
are quoted at 33 and castings at 32 cents
per lb.
Tin. — This metal is retaining the
center of interest in the metal situation
owing to its abnormally strong position
due to the pronounced scarcity in the
States. The conditions in the United
States have become so acute that the
Government have commenced to com-
mandeer all available supplies in ware-
houses, and this action is expected to
proceed further. The result, as intend-
ed, has been to relieve the immediate
need, but the ultimate effect will be to
deplete the available supply for future
requirements. Unless conditions as they
exist at the present time show early
signs of improvement, the situation will
take on a very serious aspect and one
that may well assume alarming propor-
tions. Recent action taken by the Am-
erican Government to regulate the Im-
portation of material, and require a lic-
ense to this effect, will avoid the possi-
bility of metal being hoarded for specu-
lative purposes.
The American position of tin is very
strong, the market being controlled by
the highest quotations in the history of
the trade. This week's market is one
cent higher than that of last week, the
current quotiition being 81 cents per lb.
Dealers here report a very strong mar-
ket bul, owing to considerable stock of
metiil, the situation has not been marked
by the tension that characterizes the
American market. Tin here has ad-
vanced one cent during the week and'
can be had for 72 cents per lb., to regu-
lar customers of the dealers.
Spelter. — In anticipation of early ac-
tion being taken by the American Gov-
ernment regarding the fixing of prices,
the trade in speller has been quiet. Both
producers and consumers are anxiously
awaiting the next step of the regulating
committee so as to be in a position to-
base their future operations on the
changes that will be put in force. The-
present market is a little (|uiet but con-
tinues relatively firm. I^ocal dealers are^
quoting 10% cents on a steady but un-
eventful market.
Lead. — The situation in lead is un-
certain and present activity is not pro-
nounced. Consumers are not directly
interested in the present situation as
many are very well covered for their
immediate requirements. Local condi-
tions have taken on a better outloolc
owing to the developments in shrapnel
shell orders, but so far no increase in
activity has developed in connection with
the sale of lead. Dealers continue to-
quote 9 '4 cents per lb.
Antimony. — No increase in the de-
mand has been noted in this metal but
considerable int-^rest has been created
by the recent action of the American
Government in controlling the importa-
tion of antimony and kindred alloys by
means of the license system. One out-
come of this latest move has been the
noticeable decline in the offerings, the
tendency being to see what the develop-
ments will be before disposing of further
metal. With the present quotation so
close to the actual cost of producing the
metal, sellers are taking advantage of
every opportunity to put the market on
a stronger footing. New York quota-
tions show an advance of % cents on-
the week. Dealers here report a firm
market with unchanged prices, but an
undertone of strength. Current prices
are maintained at 17 cents per lb.
Machine Tools and Supplies
Considerable improvement has de-
veloped in the macbrne tool market ow-
ing to the impetus that has been given
by the renewal of munitions activity,
and this is expected to be additionally
pronounced in the near future, as pros-
pects for more shell orders are very
bright. "The volume of inquiry for gen-
eral equipment is not heavy but of suffi-
cient importance to maintain the inter-
est of dealers. Activity in the States is
on the increase and this is making it in-
creasingly difficult to obtain delivery of
machinery from American concerns, ow-
ing to the urgent requirements for their
own government purposes. The recent
demand for all classes of supplies has
shown an increase of late due to the re-
ne-wal of activity in munitions manufac-
ture.

Scrap
The market is in an unsettled condi-
tion owing to the conflicting reports that
ai-e current as to early future prospects.
While some anticipate a weaker condi-
tion, others look for a stronger market,
the natural outcome being an unchanged
position for most lines of scrap and old
materials. Local prices are firm and un-
changed.
Toronto
TORONTO, Ont, Dec. 4.— The re-
markable success of the Victory Loan
will be gratifying to Canadians as well
as to our Allies, not only because it
shows a determination to "carry on"
with the war, but also by reason of the
benefit that will accrue to Canadian in-
dustries in tke form of orders for war
supplies. The munitions industry in
particular will benefit by the success cf
the war loan, as a considerable propor-
tion of the money will be appropriated
for the manufacture of shell. Already
arrangements have been made to distri-
bute substantial orders for shrapnel,
4.5-inch and 6-ijich shell, which will keep
many plants actively employed for sev-
eral months.
Steel
The iron and steel market is some-
what dull, the siituation being practically
unchanged. Business is on the a.uiet
side owing to the difficulty that is being
experienced in obtaining steel for any
purpose other than for war equipment
and munitions, etc. Judging from the
number of inquiries received by local
merchants, there is little doubt but that
business would be brisk if all the ma-
terial that is required could be obtained;
this apiplies to imported steel as well as
domestic material. The inquiries cover
a variety of lines and come for the most
part from manufacturers who are suffer-
ing from the shortage of steel. Manu-
facturing operations are being restricted
on this account, which is creating a
scarcity in a number of articles required
for evei-y day use. Manufacturers should
place their orders for iron and stee!
goods required in their business well
ahead of time and not allow stocks to be-
come depleted before ordering fresh
supplies, by this means avoiding delays
in deliveries.
From all accounts the outlook for the
steel companies is very favorable, the
volume of orders on hand being as large
as at any previous time. Production
continues on a favorable basis, and a
continuation of open weather will help
considerably towards this end. Munition
orders will continue to be an important
factor in the steel trade, and will account
for a considerable proportion of the out-
put during the next six months.
Prices of steel pi-oducts, with few ex-
cerptions, are holding firm, there being
no changes to announce this week except
in galvanized sheets, which have de-
clined about 50c per 100 lbs. It is likely
that there will be a further decline in
prices of the lighter gauges of black
sheets, although they are unchanged in
the meantime. In the primary market
inquiries for black sheets are heavy and
manufacturers are making every effort
to take care of their regular customers.
Large requirements by the Government
have made it necessary for producers to
supply only consumers who are engaged
in the manufacture of essentials.
Chicago warehouse prices are down,
steel bars being- now quoted at 4.10c;
structural shapes, 4.20c, and plates,
4.45c. The steel market in the United
States has been more active in the past
week than at any time since prices were
fixed, with some increase in private de-
mand in nearly all lines and with many
large Government contracts reported. It
is believed that the unfilled tonnage
statement for November will not show
nearly as much of a decrease as the pre-
vious one. . .
Pig Irort
There has be-fitl no change in the do-
mestic pig iron market this week, but the
situation in the States is becoming more
serious owing to the scarcity of fuel and
labor. The shortage of fuel at the blast
furnaces in the Pittsburgh district con-
tinues to be extremely acute and has
resulted in an additional number of
stacks being banked. The shortage of
coke is curtailing the output of pig iron

and in turn the production of steel.
Steel companies in the United States
have been buying low phosphorus iron
recently in Canada, and notwithstanding
the recent embargo placed on shipments
by the Dominion Government, the metal
has been released; but hereafter licenses
will have to be secured to obtain Can-
adian material. On the other hand, the
United States furnaces are in receipt of
heavy inciuiries from Canada for basic
and Bessemer iron.
Scrap
The market for iron and steel scrap is
fairly active at unchanged prices, which
are holding firm. The supply of these
materials is, however, none too heavy,
which is keeping the market firm. Prices
of copper and other non-ferrous metal
scraps are weak and demand light.
Machine Tools
Business in the machine tool trade is
gradually becoming more active and the
outlook is brighter than it has been for
some time. That further shell orders
will be placed in Canada is assured by
the announcement that the Imperial
Munitions Board has received instruc-
tions from the British Government to
issue contracts for shrapnel, 4.5-inch and
6-inch shell to all Canadian firms equip-
ped to produce these sizes. The volume
of these contracts, it is understood, will
keep the plants actively engaged until
well into the new year. This is all en-
tirely new business, and is, therefore,
additional to those contracts now being
executed. New equipment will be re-
quired in a number of plants to increase
production and also to replace worn-out
tools. Canadian machine tool builders
will benefit by this new business and an-
other spell of activity is assured. Owing
to the increasing activity in the United
States, deliveries of machinery from
across the line are becoming more back-
ward, some classes of equipment being
very difficult to obtain.
Supplies
The market for machine shop supplies
is steady and prices are holding firm, al-
though there are fewer changes being
made now than formerly. A very fair
demand is reported by dealers, who are
looking for increased business from
munition plants.
Metals
There is no material change in the sit-
uation in the metal markets and prices,
generally are holding firm at last
week's levels. There is no change in the
tin situation although some relief is-
expected shortly, in which case prices
will probably decline. The copper sit-
uation is gradually being cleared up al-
though there has recently been some
confusion in the trade in the States in
regard to jobbers' re-sale prices. The
Sub-Committee, Washington, has made
suggestions as to the fixed differentials
between the various grades of spelter
but did not make any suggestions in re-
gard to the base price. The lead market
is quiet and unchanged, as is also the
antimony market. An improvement in-
the position of both these metals is look-
ed for when the shrapnel contracts are
placed.
Copper. — -There is some confusion in
the primary market over the resale price
for jobbers but the situation is gradually-
being straightened out. The producers
wU\ supply copper after Jan. 1 at the
established price of 23V2C a pound which
may be distributed in small lots to the
smaller consumers at 24.675c per pound.
The dealers propose to sell copper which
they hold and wh''ch costs them more
than 23V2C at an advance over the
original cost to them. It is figured that
after January the smaller consumers
may look for a price which must not
exceed 23%c a pound plus 5% commis-
sion. About that time it is expected that
the hiPih priced copper will have disap-
peared. The local price is unchanged
and market quiet. Lake and electrolytic
are quoted at 32c and castings at 31c
per pound.
Tin. — An improvement in the tin sit-
uation in New York is expected shortly
as the Sub-Committee on tin, at Wash-
ington, has been given power to control
the distribution of tin in the United
States and has taken steps to supervise
tin importations. The U.S. Navy_ De-
partment has commandeered all tin in

Sydney
SYDNEY. N.S.. Nov. 20.— The Victory
Loan campaign closed with great succes.^
at the works of the Dominion Iron &
Steel Co. A toUl sum of $420,000 was
subscribed by ■'^.845 workmen. As there
are not more than 4,800 workmen at the
steel ■works altogether, and as among
these there are included a great many
men of alien enemy nationality, the
nnmber of subscribers reflects great
credit on the rank and file generally,
because the total of $420,000 did not in-
clude any really large subscriptions.
The contribution of the coal-workers
has not been so generous as that of the
steelworkers, this being to some extent
due to the scattered nature of the collier-
ies and the difficulty of arranging so
eflfective a campaign as was made at the
steel works. The Coal Company's men
will probably contribute between S280,-
000 and $300,000 gi\'ing a combined total
of not less than $700,000. to which has
to be added $3,000,000 subscribed by the
Dominion Steel Corporation, and credited
Tialf to Nova Scotia and half to Mon-
treal.
Mine Workers Seek Further Wages
Increase
As was feared the Amalgamated
Mine Workers of Nova Scotia have made
a demand for a wage increase upon the
operators in the Sydney District that is
c-i'e impossible of fulfillment. The A.
M. W . has uskcd an increase ranging
from u minimum to ;!0 per cent, to 75
p<>r wnl. advance on existing rates. As
such an iidvimce on top of the Inoreases
given during the past two years is
manifestly out of the question, it is
probable the failure to agree will result
in the appointment of a Conciliation
Hoard.
The coal production of the Dominion
Coal Company for November fell to
280,000 tons, the lowest during the win-
peri ml.
The local tribunals are considering
the application of the Dominion Steel
Corporation for the exemption of its
employees from military service on the
ground of the national importance of
their occupation in the production and
transportation of coal and steel. It is
expected that very general exemptions
will be granted, as both the steel and
coal companies are producing the majoi
portion of their output to the direct

The season of navigation just closed
has seen the smallest shipment of Nova
Scotia coal to the Upper Provinces in

Washington
WASHINGTON, D.C., Dec. 2.— The
fact that the Germans destroyed more
British .ships in the first ten months of
unrestricted U-boat w^arfare than Great
Britain or any other nation has ever
built in a full year has just been made
knowTi. The revelation was made when
Chairman Edward N. Hurley, of the
United States Shipping Board, made pub-
li':' a letter he had written to Senator
Gilbert M. Hitchcock, of Nebraska, on
the subject. The Germans have sunk in
ten months something over 900 British
vessels of more than 3,000,000 tons dead-
weight.
Chairman Hurley said the greatest
shipbuilding feat ever accompliBhed was
that of England in liU;i, when (588 ves-
sels of 2,8i»8,221) tons were completed,
•liiivin in I'JKi, Mr. Hurley said, built
forty-three ships of l!l2,i)i);{ tons. This
was the biggest tonnage finished by any
nation except (!reat Britain. The Am-
erican prograinnio, unless held up, will
produce (>,OOl),llOl) tons by the end of
ims. About .'),00(),000 tons will be com-
pleted in 1918, thus surpassing Great
Britain's best effort by about a million
tons.
The United States now has available
for trans-Atlantic service 582 ships of a
total of :!, 721,800) tons, including oil-
tankers and former German and Austrian
vessels. German and .'\ustrian ships
operated by the Shipping Board number
lO.'i, of 688,900 tons. American citizens
hold eleven more of these ships, totalling
i;;i,91.') tons, making the aggregate Am-
erican holding of enemy vessels 752,87.''<
Ions.
New Yard Activities
In reply to questions rcganiing the ac-
tivities of new shipyards, Mr. Hurley said
all of them that have contracts now have
the ground cleared and will have their
buildings and ways completed early ii
1918. The new yard at Hog Island, Pa.,
must deliver fifty ships before November
1. 1918, he said, and the Port Newark
yard must finish seven in June. The new
Bristol P»int plant must have four ships
reidy for service in May.
"Have any British, French, Norwegian,
Italian or Dutch authorities yet assert-
f(i that they are now building new ships
as fast as the submarines are destroy-
irm them?" Chairman Hurley was asked.
The reply was an emphatic "No." It will
be up to the United States, he indicated,
to produce new ships faster than the
(iermans sink them, providing losses are
not pulled down by the Allied navies.
A table has been compiled by the
Emergency Fleet Corporation showing
the vessels under contract and pending
contract, and vessels which have been
requisitioned by the Fleet Corporation.
The figures are: Wood vessels, 375; total
deadweight capacity, 1,330,900 tons;
composite vessels, 58.207,000 tons; steel,
451 vessels; 3,186,400 tons; total con-

This total includes requisitioned vessels

Conservation of Coal
Canadian manufacturers will be in-
terested in the news that Canada must
place herself upon the same basis as the
United States with reference to the con-
servation of coal. This has been made
plain to the Dominion Government by
the United States Fuel Administration.
In an official communication to the Can-
adian Fuel Controller, Dr. Harry A. Gar-
field, Fuel Administrator, pointed out
that Canada would be expected to resort
to the same measures to save coal as are
being adopted in the United States. Dr.

Garfield points out that an intensive
campaign is being- carried on in this
country for fuel economy. It is suggest-
ed that Canada conduct a similar cam-
paign for the limitation of the uses of
coal and the co-operation of the United
States Goveiuiment in such a campaign
is offered. Most of the Canadian coal
supply is derived from the United States,
and the Fuel Administration has under-
taken to give Canada a pro rata share of
the United States' supply on the same
basis as the various States of the Union.
The Fuel .4dministration, however, de-
mands that Canada safeguard this supply
by conservation measures in line with
those undertaken in the United States.
The Banking .Situation
The daily commerce report of the
Department of Commei-ce publishes a
report taken from the London "Statist"
of November .3, presenting its customary
annual review of the intemational bank-
ing situation, giving, among other data,
a statement comprising those banking
institutions whose deposits and current
accounts exceeded £20,000,000 at the
close of 1916. Eighty-four instiutions
are listed and in this list are three Can-
adian institutions. Twenty-fourth on
the list is the bank of Montreal with de-
posits and current accounts of £60,214,-
000. The Canadian Bank of Commerce
is thirty-eighth, with £6,417,000, while
the Royal Bank of Canada is forty-
fourth, with £40,141,000.
Carbons for electricity may no longer
be exported from France to the United
States and allied countries without spe-
cial license. A consular report from
Paris says that the permits for such ex-
portation which formerly modified the
embargo of December, 1914, affecting
these articles has been withdrawn bv a
ministerial decrease. Special applica-
tions must now be made for permission
to export these goods to any country.
Xavy Dept. Specifications
The Bureau of Supplies and Accounts
of the Navy Department has issued
notice of proposed purchases of various
materials, as follows:
Schedule 1581, motor generators for
various navy yards; schedule 1572, fif-
teen navigational, sounding, motor driven
machines for the Brooklyn yard;
schedule 1580 six portable ventilating
sets for Portsmouth yard; schedule
1582. five lathes, engine, high-duty, uni-
versal, 12-inch, 5-foot bed, for the
Annapolis naval academy.
The Bureau of Supplies and Accounts,
the Navy's purchasing organization, has
evidence that at least one commodity has
been deliberately held for abnormally
high prices. In the case of tin, the
navy has commandeered 1,000 tons
stowed in New York warehouse, but has
turned over to the American Steel and
Iron Institute the question of further
adjustment of prices and supply. The
navy had sufficient tin, through fore-
sighted purchases last spring, to supply
its own needs, but there was a prospect
that if more tin were not given con-
tractors, the navy destroyer program
would actually be halted for want ot'
machinery in which tin was used dir-
ectly or as an alloy. One New York
concern — a Dutch house — had a big sup-
ply of tin, from which the navy drew 800
tons. The manager, manifestly, was
holding for high prices, for he did not
even know what to charge when asked
for a quotation. He informed the de-
partment he would have to consult his
home office. This waiting on high prices
was undertaken in the face of the fact
that Holland would have no market here
if the British had not permitted her to
ship the goods in. Tools intended for
South America have been seized because
of the pressing need for them here.
The United States Tariff Commission
anounce that it will hold hearings in
the near future for the purpose of re-
ceiving information and suggestions from
representatives of industry and com-
merce and labor and foreign trade on
war disturbances and the plans for re-
ad.iustment to peace times, which are
being considered.
President Wilson has issued a procla-
mation under the authority of an act of
Congress of October 6, 1917. forbidding
the importation into the United States
or its territorial possessions, from Great
iBriitain, her colonies, possessions and
protectorates, and from a long list of
other countries, of various commodities,
except under license granted by the
War Trade Board in accordance wuh
the regulations. The list of commo-
dities includes vanadium, vanadium ore,
nickel and nickel ore, chrome and chrome
ore, titanium and titanium ore, etc., or
any ferro-alloy or chemical extracted
therefrom.
New York
NEW YORK, Dec. 1. — The United
States Government is obligated to pay
$;:!,000,000 for merchant ships, ordnance
and ammunition. A little more than
one half of this amount is for big guns
and projectiles and a little less than
half is for cargo boats. The official I'e-
port of the United States Shipping
Board issued last Monday shows that
the Emergency Fleet Corporation has
entered into contracts for 1,310 boats of
various tonnages for which it will pay
approximately $1,360,000,000 and con-
tracts for 99 additional boats of an
aggregate capacity of 610,000 tons are
under negotiations which when placed
will make the total obligations of the
corporation $1,465,000,000 including the
ships commandeered as well as those to
be built and those already under con-
struction or delivered.
Shipbuilding Steel Requirements
The building of the 1,409 boats, in-
cluding 33 ships already completed and
released, will require almost 2,300,000
tons of steel plates and shapes. The
Navy Dep't is also building- or having
built battleships, cruisers, torpedo boat
destroyers and other war craft that will
require 450,000 tons of plates and
shapes, or a grand total of 2,750,000
tons of .steel to carry out the full pro-
gram of the Shipping Board.
The 451 ships of steel construction of
■">, 186,400 tons deadweight will require
1,062,000 tons of steel, and the 426 ships
of 3,029,508 tons capacity requisitioned
require 1,009,508 tons of steel to build.
The composite and wooden ships that
are under contract require scarcely more
than 25,000 tons of steel. Since the re-
port, some of the 99 ships under negoti-
ation have been placed under contract.
These 99 boats will require 204,000 tons
of steel.
The Submarine Boat Co. has taken
additional orders from the government
for 100 five thousand ton ships, making
a total of 150 cargo boats to be built at
Port Newark. The United States Steel
Corp. has appropriated approximately
•$18,000,000 for its Southern subsidiary
plants, half of which will be used in the
construction of the Chickasaw Ship-
building plant at Mobile and the other
$9,000,000 will be expended for exten-
sions to and the equipment of the Ensley
plant of the Tennessee Coal, Iron & Rail-
road Co., made necessary to roll plates
and .shapes for the ships to be con-
structed at Mobile. It is estimated that
about 10,000 tons of structural steel will
be required for shipways, power plant,
boiler, machine, metal, joinery and forge
shops as well as for storehouses and
office buildings at Mobile. Extensions at
the Ensley plant will require between
8,000 and 10,000 tons of shapes.
The Steel Corpoi-ation originally ap-
propriated only $6,000,000 for the" Fed-
eral Shipbuilding plant in the Hacken-
sack Meadows, but an additional $2,000.-
000 was appropriated about ten days ago
and probably several more millions will
be called for before construction and
equipment there are completed.
Munitions Orders and Expenditures
The U.S. Ordnance Bureau has dis-
tributed additional orders for 1,250,000
shells which will require approximately
106,000 tons of steel rounds and forg-
ings. The American Brake Shoe &
Foundy Co. will manufacture 750,000
155 mm. shells and Westinghouse Elec-
tric & Manufacturing Co. and the Mc-
Myler-Interstate Co., of Cleveland, will
manufacture 500,000 200 mm. shells.
The Bureau is now distributing orders,
also, for the machining of 900,000 240
mm. projectiles. It is understood that
a large proportion of this business will
go to the American Car & Foundry Co.
and to the American Brake Shoe &
Foundry Co.
Contracts for the forging of 2,150,000
shells have already been allotted among
twelve steel companies and forge shops.
Since the U.S. entered the war, it is
estimated that the Ordnance Depart-
ment has awarded contracts for 60,-
000,000 shells of various sizes and it is
expected that contracts for 30,000,000
additional shells will be placed as soon
as manufacturing capacity is prepared
to execute the work for the Government.
The War Industries Board has allotted
orders for 50,000 tons of steel plates in-

Pittsbiirirh
piTT.<;BrR(;u. r.i . n,^ j.~The
finished steel market h:i« heen decidedly
more active in the month just closed
than in October. There has been si
larvrer volump of spe<-itic;itions Btrainst
old conlmcts and soniewh.it more new
buyinjr. The new huyini; is iis n rule
limited by the ubility of mills to miike
e«rly deliveries. Some of them can take
on no new business .it .ill. while none
can fake on niore than limited tonnagres.
Sheet* Active
Easily tlie most active branch of the
pcneral finished steel trade has been the
sheet market. It Is estimated that the
independent mills booked about 140,000
tons, in blue annealed, black and pralvan-
ized. Of this perhaps one-fourth was
Government business, although no spe-
cific tijnires are obtainable. The book-
ing? were about one-half (rreater than a
month's output, deliveries running all
the way from prompt to first half 1918.
In all cases, so far as can b« learned,
the Government prices prevailed, on the
basis of -J. 25c for blue annealed, 5c for
black and 6.25c for palvanized. The
Government prices, however, do not ne-
cessarily apply to exports for peace
purposes. Next in point of activity has
been wire products, .\ctivity in these
lines was due chiefly to the simple cir-
cumstance that mills were less sold up,
and buyers less well covered, than was
the case with most other products, par-
ticularly the heavy rolled steel materials.
Market Tone Improved
There has been a further improve-
ment in the general tone of the market.
This doubtless arises in large part from
the better financial situation and out-
look, which is improved although not
perfect. Some close observers date the
inception of the improvement from the
time Secretary McAdoo made his state-
ment, early in November, that the Gov-
ernment's war ex^)enditures would be
much less than had been reported, or
say about ten billion for the fiscal year.
Some of the stiffening, however, is at-
tributable to the further curtailment in
iron and steel production that has oc-
curred in the past three weeks, due to
shortage of coke and coal, this being al-
most entirely a reflection of the traffic
congestion, particularly in the Pitts-
burgh district.
Pig Iron Unobtainable
Except for occasional odd lots of
foundry iron which furnaces consent to
sell to needy and regular customers, no
pig iron can be bought in this district.
Reports from the east show a fairly
iarse volume of busines.s, and evidently
the eastern districts are not suffering
from coke shortage a.s much as the Pitts-
burgh and valley districts, and the Chi-
cago di.itrict. The majority of mer-
chant furnaces have been losing produc-
tion, having to bank for longer' or short-
er periods on account of not receiving
sufficient coke. One Shonango valley in-
terest, with three stJicks. had to bank
two of them this morning. The steel
works are suffering as much, as to their
blast furnaces, as the merchant stacks.
The Carnegie Steel Co. has been oper-
ating only -18 of its 59 blast furnaces,
this being due entirely to traffic conges-
tion, as it makes all its coke itself.
W. P. Snyder & Company, who com-
pute monthly the average price obtain-
ed for Bessemer and basic iron at val-
ley furnaces, including all sales of 1,000
tons or over, report November averages
at $.36.30 for Bessemer and J.'SS for
basic, these being the set prices, and
the same averages obtained for October,
but while the total tonnage used in the
October computations was about 100,000
tons, the November computations in-
cluded only a very small tonnage.
Government Buying
The Government continues to allot
large tonnages of steel, but details are
withheld. The placing of shell steel bus-
iness continues and additional allotments
are being made of ship steel. A signifi-
cant item is that while no public an-
nouncement has been forthcoming, the
steel trade learns that a fresh canvass
has been made of the plate situation, to
determine the feasibility of placing or-
ders for freight cars to relieve the rail-
roads. It has been found that on ac-
count of the large increases in plate
rolling capacity due to new construction,
it will be possible to take care of the
shipbuilding programme as being speed-
ed up further, and still leave a consider-
able tonnage of plates for steel car
building. It seems to be the intention
to place some large orders, first for loco-
motives and then for cars, on behalf of
the domestic roads, the filling of the
orders to be speeded up under the Gov-
ernment's priority authority. The Rus-
sian situation makes it necessary to de-
fer the filling of orders tentatively
placed for Russian account, and this re-
leases some locomotive and ear-building
capacity.
The Railroad Pool
Of much more immediate importance
than the prospective placing of equip-
ment orders for early delivery to the
railroads is the agreement reached one
week ago to-day to pool all the rail-
roads east of Chicago. The operation
of the pool is placed in the hands of
seven railroad officials, known as the
General Operating Committee of the
Eastern Railroads. The committee
reached Pittsburgh on Tuesday and
opened offices in three rooms in the
Union Arcade (where these letters are
written). Wednesday it issued half a
dozen orders to the railroads of sweep-
ing significance. Next day, Thanksgiv-
ing Itay. it kept at work. Friday it mov-
ed into larger quarters, ten rooms, ami
today, Saturday, it worked to 7..'!0 p.m.,
to resume work Sumlay morning at 111
o'clock.
The early orders issued were directed
chiefly to clearing the congestion in the
Pittsburgh district, all through tralfic
east ami west being embargoed and or-
dered to iiroeeed by lines north or south
of Pittsburgh. The I'cnnsylvania's
"Broaiiway Limited," the crack 20-hour
train between New York and Chicago,
was ordered discontinued. The "Fast
Freight" lines were ordered iliseonlinu-
cd and put on regular freight schedules.
Various other measures were taken.
These strenuous measures taken to re-
lieve the situation in the "Pittsburgh
gateway" may result in congestion else-
where, but the significant thing is that
it has been the congestion in the Pitts-
burgh district that has been the chief
factor in curtailing iron and steel pro-
duction below the physical capacity of
furnaces and mills. The coke shortage
has been almost entirel.v of Connells-
ville coke, and the major part of the
Connellsville coke production should
pass to or through the Pittsburgh dis-
trict. As to coal shortage, this has been
felt chiefly by steel mills in the Youngs-
town district, and mo.st of the coal for
those mills must pass through the Pitts-
burgh district.
Presumably the measures being tak-
en by the General Operating Committee
will have important results, and if there
are results they will be chiefly by way
of the congestion in the Pittsburgh dis-
trict being relieved, and larger produc-
tion of pig iron and steel should result
very shortly.

EXPORTING TO THE ORIENT
THE Manitoba Rolling Mills Co., Win-
nipeg, recently secured a large order
from the Orient for iron and steel bars.
This is required for repair and upkeep
of railway equipment, as well as in ship-
yards and engineering trades of China
and Japan. This is the start of what
will probably develop into a large ex-
port business between Western Canada
and the Orient. The Manitoba Rolling
Mill Co. have only been operating for
the last eighteen months, and during
that time their output has increased un-
til to-day it approximates 2,000 tons per
month of finished product. This com-
pany is rolling high quality bar iron
and steel, rolling the steel from new
electric steel billets. They are supply-
ing considerable tonnage to be used in
connection with wooden shipbuilding in
Canada, for the upkeep of railway roll-
ing equipment and engineering trades,
as well as for use in the manufacture
of agricultural implements. They have
also disposed of large tonnages of rein-
forcing steel used in the construction of
grain elevators and general building
work. Further tonnages are shipped
through wholesale hardware and black-
smith supply jobbers for general farm
and blacksmith purposes.

^ijir WHY?
First: Because in our Extractor,
we use a steel of different an-
alysis than that in the taps
themselves. Second: Because it is
not tempered the same, for taps
have to be left exceedingly hard
in order to maintain their cut-
tinij edge and they are there-
fore brittle. Third: Because the
Fingers of our Extractors are
further from the axis of the tap
than is any solid portion of the
tap itself and they thus have a
greater leverage in their favor;
and Fourth: Because they are
shaped to fit the grooves of the
tap, using, therefore, the great-
est amount of material.

and iron would be taken care of by a
melting furnace, rags and cloth would
be sterilized in an automatic laundry,
all bottles would be washed and steriliz-

To Fi.x Price of Silver. — Negotiations
are proceeding in London between Great
Britain and the United States with a
view to fixing the price of silver for the

Chancellor of the Exchequer, who made
an announcement to this effect in the
House of Commons recently. He said
he thought it possible an agreement
would be reached.
Dominion Customs Revenue. — Customs
receipts for the eight months of the
fiscal year closing Nov. P,0 aggregate
$115,324,907, as compared with $94,728,-
997 for the corresponding period last
year, an increase of $20,595,909. For
Novi'nibor alone receipts wore $12,949,-

with November, 1916.
Now Metal From Nelson, B.C. — A
Scottish scientist has discovered a new
metal which is believed to belong to the
platinum group. It is called by him
canadium. He has obtained a few grams
per ton in the pure state by treatment
of certain rocks found in Nelson, B.C.
There is some anticipation that the new
metal will find industrial uses, especially
hy jewelers.
HIanUot Insurance Expired. — On Doc.
2 at midnight all marine insurance of
the blanket nature became void, but
many companies continue to insure their
boats by the trip. Many companies
carry their own insurance, and these
may operate until the ice closes the loek.i
at the Soo. Vessel men, made optimistic
by the unusually mild weather, are hop-
ing for one or more round trips yet. The
majority, however, of the small boats
are now in winter quarters.
Two Vessels Launched at Poison's. —
Two steel fishery protection vessels were
launched at the Poison Iron Works, To-
ronto, on November 27. Although no in-
vitations were issued, a large number of
persons were present to witness the
ceremony, which took place v;ithout any
misha,p. The engines and boilers are
ready to be fitted up immediately, and
it is anticipated the boats will be able toi
pass down the St. Lawrence before navi-
gation closes. The vessels were not
named, but are numbered T.R. 15 and
T.R. 16 respectively.
New Zealand Wants (iuicksilver.— ■
The New Zealand Government has offer-
ed a bonus of 8 cents per pound for the
first 100,000 pounds of retorted quicK-
silver that the mines of New Zealand
produce, under the; condition that at
least one half of the quantity is pro-
duced on or before March 31, 1920, and
the remaining half before March 31,
1921. It is reported that there are sev-
eral rich deposits in the Dominion of
Canada, but that little has been done as.
yet for lack of fufficient capital.
Freight Service Over Quebec Bridge.
— The service of the car ferry steamer
Leonard between Quebec and Levis was
suspended on Monday, and freight cars
will run over the Quebec bridge, which
will greatly expedite shipments. It is
stated that the steamer Leonard may
be sold for service in the Straits of
Canso. It is also announced that within
two weeks passenger trains will be run-
ning over the bridge, and Canadian
Government railroad schedules from
Montreal eastward will be changed in
consequence.
Economy in Tin-Plate. — Manufactur-
ers of food products are warned by the
Food Controller for Canada that the use
of tin-plate must be curtailed in every
possible way. So serious is the situa-
tion that the United States has prohibit-
ed exportation, except under license. No
export licenses will be granted for uses
other than for the manufacture of food-

New Concern Develops Hematite
Mines. — Tho prcvailintr high prices of
henintito iron ore of good quality has
slimulatod this class of mining in On-
tario and Quebec. Ono of the companies
recently incorporated in Canada is the
Canadian Union Iron Minos Corporation,
Montreal, with a capital stock of $1,000,-
000, which intends opening deposits near
Sutton, Que., where hematite iron ore
has been uncovered analyzing 68 per
cent. meUillic iron. This company has
already commenced operations at an-
other mine near Perth, Ont., from which,
it is said, there were several thousand
tons of iron ore taken a few years ago.
Urges .Survey of Power in Canada. —
At the Dominion Conservation Commis-
sion annual meeting in Ottawa on Nov.
28, A. B. White, C.E., read a paper urg-
ing that nothing be done to alienate
power rights on the St. Lawrence Jlivcr
until a comprehensive survey had been
made. Sir John Kennedy, consulting en-
gineer of the Montreal Harbor Com-
mission, believed that a scheme of de-
velopment should be agreed upon by an
engineering commission and then handed
over to a joint commission, such as the
International Waterways Commission.
He favored Government development.
R. A, Ross, a Hydro-Electric engineer,
from Montreal, agreed, and also advo-
cated a scientific survey of the whole of
Canada's power and undeveloped energy.
Lake Steamers for Overseas Trade. —
An important part of the work of the
Department of Marine and Fisheries at
present is concerned with the transfer
of steamers formerly employed in trad-
ing on the Great Lakes to the overseas
trade. Some of the larger lake steamers
had to be taken through the canals in
two sections. It was announced recent-
ly by an official of the department that
ten steamers hitherto employed in trad-
ing on the lakes have already gone or
are going to the overseas trade. One
steamer, of full canal size, built at the
Poison Iron Works, Toronto, for Nor-
wegian interests, is going out in a few
days and another large steamer, built

To Cut Down Non-Essential Trades
in V. Sw— The United States Govern-
ment's first move toward curtailing non-
ossontial industries during tho war was
made on Sunday when tho fuel adminis-
tration sent to coal producers a proforred
list of consumers to serve as a tniile in
tilling orders. Tho list osiUiblishoK pro
forontial shipment for (lovornmont or-
ders of railway fuel, household rociuire-
inents, public utilities, stool plants, coke
ovens an<l munition plants. F;icing a
loal shorUiKo of fifty million tons for the
country, the fuel adminis;tration is de-
tcrniine<l that a radical slo^p was neces-
sary if essential industries and public
utilities were to bo kept running. It
turned down suggestions that a list of
non-essential industries and i)ul)lic utili
ties whore coal should be denied and
established instead the i)re<'erontial list
as less likely to injure the banking'
•irodit of concerns which it is considered
certain will suffer.

Motor. Marine and Aircraft Red Book,
1917. — 439 pages and numerous illustra-
tions. Publi.shed by the Technical Pub-
lishing Co., London, England. Price
.5/6, ($1.40). This is the seventh edition
of a year book published under a new
name more in keeping with its extended
field. This volume contains an abund-
ance of information pertaining to motor
cars and their manufacturers, motor
cycles, commercial and agricultural
motors, marine motors, aircraft, etc.,
together with full information relating
to the legislation necessitated by the
war as affecting motor, aircraft and
allied industries. The information has
been collected and made easily access-
ible concerning internal combustion en-
gines, steam engines and electric motors.
Special attention has also been paid to
the use of motors in agriculture and
horticulture, and in the municipal and
public services. The book contains nine
sections and a dictionary of technical
terms in five languages, the latter being
introduced to further the interests of
the export trade. It is not possible to

B.C. SI'IU'CK l't)K AlKI'LANKS
'i'ho survi'y of tlie forcsl resources of
British Columbia, upon wliicli the Com-
mission of Conservation has been en-
gaged for tlio past four years, has
proved of striking immediate value in
the prosecution of the war. The Im-
perial Munitions Board, which has de-
finitely taken ii\ hand tlie organization
of airplane manufai'ture, found itself in
ininu'diate need of large (|uantilies of
airplane spruce, and the Commission
was able, as a result of its survey, to
furnish the board with specific informa-
tion as to the location and ownership of
all the large bodies of spruce in British
Columbia suitable for that purpose. The
fact that this information had previous-
ly been collected enabled the Munitions
Board to take up without delay the mat-
ter of securing the necessary supplies of
this vitally important material.
Steps are being taken to increase the
production of airplane spruce bejp)nd all
limits previously thought possible.
This is but another example of the
vital importance of Canada's natural re-
sources in winning the war. Many ex-
perts hold that the best prospect for
definitely and overwhelmingly maintain-
ing the supremacy of the allies is in
connection with the war in the air. This
involves the manufacture of many thous-
ands of airplanes, toward which the most
intense efforts of the Allies are being
directed. The most suitable species of
wood for this purpose is Sitka or silver
spruce, of which gi-eat quantities are to
be found on the Pacific coast of North
America. Canada's share of this timber
is very large, and is considered so im-
portant in the prosecution of the war
that its export, except under license, has
recently been prohibited by the Govern-
ment to all destinations abroad other
than the United Kingdom, British pos-
sessions and protectorates.

MINERAL CONSERVATION ADVO-
CATED
AT the annual meeting of the Domin-
ion Commission of Conser-vation held in
Ottawa last week Sir Clifford Sifton
stated that: "No serious attempt has
been made to grapple with the problem
of preventing the serious and irrepar-
able waste which is constantly going
on in the mining of our coal areas. Pro-
vision for inspection to prevent the loss
of human life has been made by the
provinces; but the permanent waste of
very large quantities of valuable coal
still goes on."
The war has stimulated mineral pro-
duction in many lines, including copper,
nickel, asbestos, zinc, silver, lead,
chromite, cobalt, pig iron and graphite.
"The establishment at Shawinigan
Falls of an electrolytic process for re-
covering metallic magnesium from
magnesite has greatly stimulated the
production of this mineral. Magnesium

COAL-GAS IN AUTOMOBILES NOT
TO BE RESTRICTED
THE British Minister of Munitions has
informed the Automobile Association
that so long as the gas is conveyed in
bags, at or slightly above atmospheric
pressure, and is not compressed in steel
cylinders, it is not considered that at the
present time there is any need on general
grounds' of restricting the use of coal-
gas for motor purposes, though should
motorists use coal-gas on any consider-
able scale it may, in the interests of
national requirements, become neces-
sary at some future time to impose cer-
tain restrictions on its use.

n «nnp judgment, determined by prejudice
rather thnn l)y rcii»oninK nnnlysls 7
I put these nuestiona not to be disnprree-
nblc. but becnuso, if neceBftnry. I want to
spur you to appreciate. *^hc value that
there is in dlscusRion of current events.
Many people, fortunately, appreciate its
value instinctively. Perhnrs you are one
of these. Many others arc bc-Kinninp: to
appreciate it.
This is shown by the Ktowinpr popu-
larity of clubs and classes on current
events.
Only a few years aro such clubs and
cl.'i.Asea were almost unheard of. To-day
most of our hiprKer cities have half a dozen
of them or more.
In one city — Boston— a talented woman
of my acquaintance draws an income of
thousands of dollars a year from her lead-
ership of current events classes.
Other men and women have similarly
discovered that interest in current events
is increasing so t ipidly that they can well
afford to orRanize classes like those con-
ducted by the Roston woman.
Still, there remain many people thou-
sands of people — who never discuss cur-
rent events. Many thousands more dis-
cuss only such events as come under the
headinKS of "crime." "the theatre," and
"sports."
These are the people I want to reach.
They are the people I want to rouse to
recognition of the practical helpfulness
they will find in discussion of current
events in Reneral.
Current events clubs and classes might
well be orjjanized in every neiprbborhood,
with weekly meetings to take up the out-
standing happenings in international af-
fairs, national politics, literature, art.
music, science and industry.
Regular attendance at. and active par-
ticipation in. these meetings will prove
to be an education in itself.
Tt will enlarge the mental horizon and
l)roaden the moral sympathies. By dis-
ciplining the mind to active thought it
will raise the level of workaday efficiency.
It will make for a more alert, a more
conscientious citizenship. It will give zest
and color to a life which perhaps has
hitherto been pathetically drab.
Unsuspected powers will be awakened
With a better grasp on the realities of
life, the whole personality will expand.
One evening a week is certainly not too
much to give to a discussion of the day-
to-day developments in our wonderful
world.
It may mean doing without an evening
at cards or at the musical comedy, or at
the dance hall. But this, after all. is
not a terrible sacrifice.
And from the occasional talk over cur-
rent events will come more profit than
could possibly come from any number of
evenings spent in card-playing, dancing, or
listening to musical comedies. — Reprinted
from the Toronto Daily Star.

Snipers and Sniping — by a Sniper
A^NlI'l'.lv is l);u'k in Canada — a star siii|ur, who has 154 marks on bis rifle, every mark
incaninsj; a German life. Most of ns know absolutely nothing of the work of the sniper,
but tlio story — a rcmarkalile one — is told in the Christmas (December) MACLEAN'S by the
cliampiou sniper of the (^anadian Expeditionary Forces. This man was buried by a shell-
explosion, was dug out by two comrades, and he has lived to tell us his wonderful story, in
MACLEAN'S. It's worth 15c to get this story alone.

Politics From Within
— Leacock, of Course
TRUST Leacock to see a chance for his witty and humorous
pen. He deals with the humorous phases of electioneering in
C«::ada in his usual vein.
Why Laurier sent Troops
to South Africa
THI-S contribution, bj- Col. John Bayne Maclean, goes back-
ward many years — to the time of the South African War
in 1899-1900. That was when Canada first took up arms for
the Empire. Politics, of a high order, was back of the decision
to send Canadian troops to the .\ntipodes. It is "inside" history.
Oppenheim — Allenson —
McBeth — Mumford
ALONG instalment of Oppenheim's absorbing story, The
Pawns Count, is given in the December MACLEAN'S. A
short story, by A. C. Allenson is seasonable. Madge McBeth
contributes a complete novelette. The Man Who Wasn't. And
Ethel Watts Mumford. teller of delightful tales, delicately told,
gives us the first of a series of short stories — Love and the Lock-
smith.

Their Work, and the Review of Reviews— all are present in

Gadsby's Story of the
Union Government
GADSBY is saturated with Ottawa knowledge — much of it of
the iiKsidc variety. He pokes about, talks with big men;
and big men, and lesser ones, talk with Gadsby. Useful sort
of man, is Gadsby. What he hears and learns he writes about
for MACLEAN'S; and in this story of his about the new Union
Government, he reveals the undercurrents on the movement that
developed into negotiations, and which finally resulted in a
Union Government. Gadsby adds interesting biographical in-
formation to his brilliant study.
Robt. W. Service is back
ag:ain
BACK in MACLEAN'S, that is— in body, he is still in Flanders —
where the fighting grows uglier all the time. Service has
taken time to write verse for MACLEAN'S. You know well the
virility of his style, and the gripping, human character of his
verse. It is about life and men in the trenches he writes —
about our boys far from us. It is worth something to see our
boys as Service sees them. Read "The Shape at the Wheel" in
the December MACLEAN'S.
Arthur Stringer Avrites a
Beautiful Christmas Poem
STRINGER is a wonderful man — wonderfully versatile, won-
derfully human. He is a master of the short-story and of
the detective and mystery type of story; and he can ciimb the
heights of literary endeavor, as he has in this passing sweet
poem — Christmas Bells in War-time. Y'our heart is tender these
times of horrible slaughter and of heroic achievement, and you'll
be grateful to Stringer for putting beautifully your innermost
thoughts and feelings.

THE Ix'iiefit of this long experience, wliicli
iiicludes a thorough worlving knowledge of
fuels, combustion and heat-treating methods
is yours, whether you iiistal one Gilbert and
Barker furnace or a hundred.
This should mean a great deal to you if you
contemplate installing furnaces.
Gilbert and Barker furnaces are known for
their dependability, wherever they are used.
The exi^erimental stage in their construction
has been long passed. Year in and year out
they give unequalled service to their users. It
will pay you to investigate them. Our Engin-
eering Department will gladly advise you.
AVe are now making delivery
from f^tock on the smaller
furnaces. All are made for
either eas or oil fuel or can
lie furnished with combina-
tion gas or oil burners. Cata-
log 24 gives more details.
You'll find it interesting.
In (iill)ert & Barker Furnaces, heat loss from
radiation is cut dovm to the minimum. Heavy
walls and the high quality of the fire hrick used
retain the maximum amount of heat.
Linings are made of the very best grade of
Penn.sylvania Fire Brick, Hard Baked.
None but the best grade materials used through-
out.
Repairs, when necessary, are readily made without
distiu'bing the general construction.
We make both Gas and Fuel Oil Burning Heat
Treating Furnaces in more than 100 standard
types.
These are some of the many good reasons why you
should investigate. Get catalog 24 now.

Clean Out Shells
For light grinding, polishing, drilling — for
cleaning out shells of all sizes — the Strand
is the machine you need.
Drop a card for catalog to-day.
Clean out the interior wall or base of any siee
shell and retouch the rough spots
with this
"STRAND*'
Flexible Shaft Machine. Freely flexible to a
certain radius, where it automatically forms a
stop, it positively prevents accidental short
bends. Shell factories throughout Canada use
it with great success.
Three-speed countershaft and belts prevent
overloading of the motor.
Simply remove the detachable handle and
wheel, and drill chuck can be attached quickly
and easily.
The Strand Flexible Shaft with metal casing
outwears any other shaft and gives none of the
trouble common to ordinary flexible shafts.

PRACTICALITY
AFTER fifteen years' study
of the Miner's and Lum-

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

Circulating Pumps
Eliminate the separate relief valve and its necessary
piping by installing the Roper Circulating Oil Pump.
But, you say, why install a new system when the present
is good enough? This "good enough" _ article may
appear to be giving satisfaction, but, is it giving the best
to be obtained. Can you speed up without any fear?
With a Roper you need not have any fear of any kind.
The oil flows from it in a steady, even stream, and there
you can speed up to full capacity and let her go feeling
confident.
Inquire. You will get valuable information anyway.

__ width to give the greatest rigidity undT
heavy cuts. The shears are made extremely mas-
sive and the bed walls extra thick, providing the
necessary mass of metal to absorb the vibration
and shocks incident to heavy turning at high
speeds. Heavy box girths tie the front and rear
walls of the bed together at close intervals. Im-
proved type wide angle V on front shear to take

DESCRIPTION
CARRIAGE "^^^ bridge is very wide and
extraordinarily deep ; it
will not spring under the heaviest cuts. The car-
riage is gibbed to the bed at the rear on the
outside and will not lift under any conditions.
APRON '^'^^ apron is of heavy double plate
type affording a support or bear-
ing to both ends of all shafts. Apron is tongued
and grooved to the carriage, also bolted and
dowelled. The feed friction has a greatly in-
creased diameter and will pull the heaviest feeds

to the bed by four large locking bolts operated
at the top of the barrel. A simple binder locks
the tailstock spindle in correct alignment ; this
clamp is located at the extreme front end, where
it grips the spindle with the utmost rigidity
and absolutely does away with distortion of any
kind. The screw is unusually large to resist any
buckling tendency. Suitable screws are provided
for setting over for Taper Work.

The surface of the piece
is absolutely unmarred.
Because after the cut,
the cutter is automatic-
ally brought to a stand-
still — the work returns
under it while the
spindle is stationary.
Cincinnati Automatic Millers
for Manufacturing
RIFLE AND MACHINE GUN COMPONENTS
and similar parts
They have the intermittent
feeding feature, which has
proven so successful on our
earlier machines, with this
addition — after the cut is
taken the spindle is stopped
automatically so that the
work returns beneath it
while the cutter is stationary
— no danger of marring the surface of the work because of a revolving cutter.
Consider too, the advantage of this from the standpoint of safety. The operator
removes the finished piece and chucks a new one while the cutter is stationary.
He can't get caught by a swiftly revolving although idle cutter. After he chucks
the new piece, he moves one lever — and immediately both the spindle and feed
."-— «=> - « movements start again.
This is one improvement on the Cincinnati
Automatic. There are others equally vital.
Do you wonder this new machine has already
made a place for itself in the esteem of a
number of big munitions shops?
For manufacturing parts in quantities it offers
exceptional advantages. ,^

PLAIN VISE
HAS been designed with as much care and fore-
thouyrht as we have given oui' milling machines,
cutters, and other products. There are good fea-
tures in all vises, and bad features in some. When de-
sig'ning- this vise, we took into consideration all the
difficulties encountered, because of the shortcomings and
faulty construction of vises which had come to our
attention, and have endeavored, to the best of our
ability, to eliminate these objectionable features.
It is a fact that the milling machine vise in many
instances is expected to take the place of a jig, or fix-
ture, and becomes quite an efficient addition to the mill-
ing machine, especially when used in pairs, so that one
vise can be loaded or unloaded while the cutters are
working on the piece, or pieces to be milled, in the other
vise. Realizing this, we have made the tongue slot, on
all vises, an exact distance from the face of the solid
jaw. This feature is taken care of by efficient jigs for
milling these slots.
All milling machine vises should be made as low as
possible, without sacrificing strength and the facilities
for clamping. This we have accomplished by having a
cast, and machine finished flange on all four edg-es of
the vise, thus allowing it to be clamped in any position
on the table.
The jaws are of steel and can readily be removed
for occasionally increasing the range, or inserting
special jaws for holding pieces of irregular shape.
The ways of the vise are solid, giving the base
greater strength, and the construction of block and
gibbs such that they wipe the ways free of chips and
foreign matter.
The movable jaw is made of ample thickness to allow
for as large a diameter of screw as is consistent with
the height of the vise. Tongue slots are milled at right
angles to each other, so that the vise can be held paral-
lel, or at right angles with the spindle.
It is also a fact that nearly all vises break diagonally
from the corner of the solid jaw to the base, or on a
diagonal line from the screw bearing to the base. We
find that in casting these bases, this part of the vise
has hitherto been solid, and has contained a larger
amount of metal; the shrinkage, therefore, being
g'reater at both ends, causes the metal there to be
spongy and as this is where the greatest amount of
stress comes, the castings usually break at these points.
To overcome this trouble, we have set cores in both ends,
as shown in sectional view below. These cores allow an
even distribution of metal all around, eliminating
shrinkage, and makes for stronger construction through-
out.
The movable jaw is gibbed around the outside. This
design eliminates the objectionable feature of having
slots cut in the base of the vise for clamping the gibbs
directly underneath. These gibbs, however, do not
interfere in any way with the clamping of the vise onto
the milling machine table.

The regular equipment furnished with this vise is as

Since the demand for this vise has been very great.
we have arranged to keep them in stock, for immediate
delivery.

We are not Playing
Checkers
Every man-jack of us at the Carborundum plant is working like
the proverbial beaver, for never before has there been such
a demand for Carborundum and Aloxite Products.
We are doing our level best to meet this big demand —
enlarging our plants, increasing our forces, speeding up pro-
duction — we are even building a big 20,000 horse power
furnace plant in Canada in our efforts to keep up with things.
We have a definite service to perform for we are helping to
produce the necessities of war.
Carborundum and Aloxite
Products are Doing Their Bit
They are grinding shrapnel shells, high-explosive shells, rifle barrels and
parts — grinding bayonets and sabers. They are grinding a hundred and
one different parts of the aeroplane and the auto truck, the machine gun
and the field gun. They are shaping armor plate and grinding car wheels;
grinding plowshares, and the tools of the metal-working trades of the world.
They are grinding torpedo tubes and torpedoes, -grinding submarine engine
bases; beveling the lenses of periscopes and buffing the soles of the army
shoes and grinding the shears for the pocket kits of the "Sammies."
They are doing a thousand and one war tasks quicker and better than they
have ever been done before.
Carborundum and Aloxite products are surely doing their bit, but with it all we haven 't
neglected for one instant our regular patrons^ we are doing all in our power to keep up
with the pace; to keep up to the standards of Carborundum service.

This chuck can be applied to any make of lathe, without
alteration to the machine, and will increase proiluction
from 25% to 75%. It grips and relea.ses the shell while
in motion — no need to stop your machine.
It is a single unit combination attached to the face plate
of lathe, supported by an additional heavy duty bearing,
thus making a heavy duty lathe out of a light machine.
A small lever operates the chuck, ^^'ill operate with a
pressure of 60 lbs. per sq. in.

time, IaV)or and materials — it means quicker
and greater production with less effort and cost.
Production is increased when machines are lubri-
cated properly; upkeep and labor is reduced and
time saved.
Oil, therefore, is a necessity that should be protected by
modern storage and handling facilities so that waste,
careless handling, evaporation and deterioration of oil
will be stopped, and the danger of interruption to pro-
duction by fire, removed.
Ideal provision for the economical Storage and Distri-

CUT YOUR SHOP COSTS
Nobody would think of putting 16-inch lathe work on a 30-inch lathe, then
why leave small parts on a large Milling Machine ?
A Steptoe Hand Miller or small power feed can be handled quickly and will
cut your production cost. You will have less money invested in your Milling
Machines and have more machines to do the work.
That same principle applied to your small planer work will cut the cost of
planer work.
A Steptoe Shaper will do the work faster because it can be handled quicker.

For the Reason the
Wood is Steamed and
Bent with the Grain
RICH
Drills are Forged
and Twisted Hot
-<^>aaiti.;
fis-
The high-speed tool steel in !;ii h
Forged Drills, Reamers and Bit-
remains as strong as the solid bar.
Forged — instead of milled — the
line grain of the steel is not ent
an<l weakened. Conseqnentiy,
extra tongh work at highest speed
is ordinary work to Rich Forged
Tools. They never hnrn or himl.
Til lasting service yon will finil
that Ricli Forged Tools arc as
diH'ercnt from ordinary milled
tools as solid oak furnitnre is dif-
ferent from glitter and glne. But
tlie surface difference to tlie
average man is not discernahle.
Therefore, wlien buying Drills,
Reamers and ISits, know for cer-
tain that each is stamped: Ricli
Tool Company.
