V.  roceivod  a  day  (U-  iwo  a.iio  a  lilotti^r-calondar — IVdih  ouo  of  oiii'  advertising  t'lifiids.  It 
is  of  line  quality,  the  printing  good  juid  the  color  pleasing.  It  is  the  message  which  the 
hlotter  conveys,  however,  which  makes  it  uuu.-ual  and  interesting.    Hero  it  is: 

American  business  men  do  not  realize  the  value  which  trade  journals  and  technical  magazines 
miirht  be  to  them  in  increasini;  their  elliciency  and  in  givinR  them  a  broad  and  comprehensive  view 
of  their  business.  Our  loreij;n  competitors  read  almost  every  article  published  upon  their  business 
with  great  care  and  thoroughness.  Our  trade  journals  and  technical  papers  are  the  best  in  the  world 
and  they  should  be  encouraged  and  supported  by  our  business  men. 

"These  papers  are  preaching  the  gospel  of  sound  business  on  practical  lines  and  are  helpful,  not 
only  to  business,  but  to  the  country  as  a  whole.  If  the  suggestions  made  by  them  in  the  past  had 
been  followed  by  our  business  men  it  would  not  be  necessary  at  this  time  to  point  out  some  of  the 
fundamental  weaknesses  in  American  business." 

Adapted  from  the  book,  "Awakening  of  Business^"  by  Edward  N.  Hurley,  Chairman  of  the  Federal 
Shipping  Board. 

The  following  excerpt  from  the  letter  which  accompanied  the  blotter  in  question  i.s  equally  in- 
teresting explaining  as  it  does  the  reason  why  the  advertiser  spends  his  gpod  money  on  ex- 
pensive advertising  to  "boost"  as  he  says  the  technical  journal.  The  letter  was  written  by  the 
general  sales  manager  and  his  name  and  the  n  ame  of  the  concern  he  repre.sents.  though  with- 
held here,  will  be  supplied  upon  request. 

Several  people  have  asked  me  why  I  am  "boost  ing  the  game"  of  the  trade  papers.  They  find  it 
difficult  to  understand  just  how  I  expect  to  sell  ou  r  product  by  getting  people  to  read  the  technical 
journals;  and  many  of  them  think  me  a  fool  for  spending  hundreds  of  dollars  of  my  company's 
money  to  distribute  these  blotters.     *     *     *     * 

My  position  in  this  matter  is  taken  because  of  a  very  firm  conviction  that  the  people  who  read  the 
trade  papers  are  much  better  business  men  and  hence  easier  to  sell  a  good  product  to,  than  the 
men  who  do  not  read  the  trade  papers.  I  have  studied  this  question  for  several  years  and  do  not 
think  that  I  ever  found  a  man  consistently  read  ing  the  trade  papers  who  was  not  a  "live  wire" 
and  the  sort  of  fellow  I  like  to  do  business  with. 

On  the  other  hand,  I  have  found  that  the  men  who  do  not  read  the  trade  journals  are  unprogres- 
sive,  addicted  to  haggling  over  trivial  points  and,  on  the  whole,  very  hard  to  do  business  with.  The 
people  who  read  the  business  papers  know  what 's  what,  and,  in  selling  them,  it  is  not  necessary 
to  spend  hours  of  valuable  time  in  the  discussion   of  elementary  points. 

My  attitude  in  this  matter  is  possibly  an  unusual  one  but  I  am  firmly  convinced  that  it  is  the  right 
attitude.  Furthermore,  I  believe  that  if  my  ideas  on  this  subject  were  brought  to  the  attention  of 
the  people  selling  goods  in  the  marine  field  many  of  them  would  see  the  matter  in  a  new  light  and 
would  actively  co-operate  with  you  in  getting  yo  ir  publication  into  the  hands  of,  even  more,  the 
men  to  whom  they  wish  to  sell. 

The  trade  papers  are  doing  a  wonderful  work;  a  nd  every  good  business  man  should  boost  them  all 
he  can  all  the  time.

Roelofson  6 -in.  Banding  Machine 

Y 


OU  couldn't  imagine  a  more 
sturdy,  compact,  serviceable  ma- 
chine than  this!  A  glance  at  the 
illustration  will  show  you  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 
perfect  rigidity,  permanent  accuracy 
and  desirable  compactness. 

Chucking  with  spring  collet  chuck  in- 
sures accurate  and  speedy  chucking. 

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.

Immediate 
Delivery 

To  shell  plants 
changing  over 
from  the  manu- 
facture of  the 
larger  sizes  to  6" 
shells,  our  abil- 
ity to  make  im- 
mediate delivery 
should  be  of  espe- 
cial interest. 

And  remember 
that  the  Roelof- 
son is  one  of  the 
few  banding  ma- 
chines that  have 
stood  up  from  the 
first  of  the  muni- 
tion game  and 
are  still  doing 
duty.

With    Strength    and    Pulling    Power 


^  ^.m^ 


Whitooiiib-Hlaisdoll  Lathes  are  built  to  stanil  up  to  the 
most  exacting  reciuircments  of  modern  manufacturing. 

I'owcr  is  secured  by  the  big  cone  pulleys  and  the  large 
ratio  of  back  (rearing — by  the  construction  of  the  drive 
from  the  belt  to  the  work.  -Vniplo  strength  is  l)uilt  into 
every  detail.  The  carriage,  with  its  long  bearings  on 
the  bed,  and  its  extremely  wide  bridge;  the  apron  with 
its  reinforced  plates  and  heavy  gearing — these  methods,

QUALITY   OF    THREADS 

riio  quality  of  threads  cut  by  the 
W.  S.  O.  D.  is  due  to  construction  of 
the  die  head. 

Chasers  are  held  to  the  work  by  a 
solid  steel  shell  which  bears  on  all  four 
lands  directly  back  of  the  cuttinji 
teeth.  (See  diaprrani  above).  This 
shell  also  releases  and  closes  the 
chasers,  moving  backward  or  forward 
in  doinp  so. 

The  chasers  fit  in  slots  in  a  solid 
steel  body.  This  prevents  any  ten- 
dencv  of  the  lanils  to  tip.  etc. 

BIG  PRODUCTION 

The  saving  in  time  taken  to  back  off, 
the  free,  easy  cutting  of  the  lands,  the 
absence  of  trouble  with  the  die  head, 
all  make  for  big,  gratifying  produc- 
tion. 

LOWER  COSTS 

Saving  in  time,  increased  produc- 
tion, etc.,  mean  lower  costs,  and  conse- 
quently recommend  this  die  for  your 
use. 

The  W.  S.  O.  D.  is  made  in  three 
models,  one  of  which  is  particularly 
adapted  to  your  special  requirement. 
Tell  us  what  your  work  is  and  we  will 
recommend  the  right  head  for  the  job.

That    Wear-Longer 
Argument 

It  is  claimed  that  the  length  of  service  of  a  file  is 
immaterial,  that  it  is  the  work  done  quickly  which 
counts. 

Our  files  a^ree  with  the  cuttinsr  argument,  but — 
they  sro  a  little  further.  They  cut  quickly  first,  last 
and  all  the  time,  and,  like  tried  friends — 

THEY  WEAR 

They  have  the  teeth  and  they  have  the  stock.

Machining  the  British  6  in.  Mark  XI.  High  Explosive  Shell 

By   M.   H.    Potter 

<'Ji(i(i(j(s  in  l/ii  vom.plexiuii  (ij  tlij-  shell  tiiduKtiij  have  jolluwiil  tiu-li  (jIIh:i-  in  recenJ. 
iiionfhx  irifJi  kaleidoscopic  rapidifij.  and  the  resources  of  mnnujactUrerx  have  on  frequent 
ori-nxions  been  severely  tried  in  adjusting  themselves  to  changesin  tgpe.  The  design  of  shell 
dc-trribed  hcrnrith  is  that  upon  ii'hich  manv  rnannfacturers  are  at  present  eoncentrating. 


I  INASMUCH  as  many  manufacturer.-, 
have  found  this  particular  shell 
rather  difficult  to  produce,  and  have 
experienced  considerable  trouble  and  de- 
lay in  securing  rapid  and  steady  produc- 
tion, this  article  will  no  doubt  be  of 
timely  interest.  Special  attention  is 
called  to  the  sequence  of  operations,  the 
working:  gauges  used  and  the  tool  equip- 
ment involved. 

To  those  who  seek  the  shortest 
methods  and  the  least  number  of  opera- 
tions attention  is  especially  called  to  the 
method  as  pursued  in  this  instance.  Af- 
ter actual  tests  by  practical  e.xperience, 
the  following  was  found  to  be  the  best 
in  the  long  run.  In  other  words,  the 
easiest  way  is  not  always  the  best,  nor 
is  it  the  shortest.  Air-operated  man- 
drels and  collet  chucks  were  purchased. 

Cut  Off  Open   End 

Operation  1,  see  Fig.  1. — Special  ma- 
chine or  engine  lathe  with  two  cut-off 
tools  set  opposite;  tools  operated  to- 
ward.e  the  centre  by  means  of  a  cross- 
feed  screw;  the  feed  screw  is  operated 
by  worm  gears  driven  from  lathe  head- 
stock  gear. 

Gauges. — Length  g-auge  to  extend 
from  the  end  of  bore,  having  a  centre 
punch  to  mark  shell  before  this  opera- 
tion. 

Centre  Closed   End 

Operation  2,  see  Fig.  2. — Engine 
lathe  with  special  fixture;  the  shell  and 
drill  revolve  in  opposite  directions;  the 
fixture  consists  of  a  drill  spindle  mount-

for  roughing  the  straight  part  of  bore; 
the  two  cutting  tools  are  %  in.  square 
and  expanded  to  size  by  means  of  a 
taper  plug  screwed  into  the  end  of  the 
boring  head.  Second,  for  roughing  the 
taper  and  bottom  of  bore;  two  form  cut- 
ting tools  extending  1  in.  on  the  straight 
part,  held  in  taper  slot  in  boring  head 
by  two  machine  screws;  the  holes  (for 
the  machine  screws)  are  slightly 
elongated  to  permit  the  tool  to  be  "pack- 
ed up"  to  size.  Old  finishing  tools  are 
used  in  this  head.  Third,  for  finishing 
the  bore;  same  boring  head  and  tools

KIG.    ITA. 

The  shaft  A  is  lengthwise  of  the  lathe,  and  is 
driven  by  the  headstock  gears  ;  at  the  rear  is  the 
worm  B.  The  lever  C  carries  a  cam  which  meshes 
the  worm  with  the  worm  wheel.  The  hand 
wheel  D  (when  A  is  not  in  mesh)  allows  the 
operator  to  bring  the  cam  E  into  the  desired 
position.  The  chain  F  drives  the  main  cam  shaft 
G.  The  roller  on  H  swings  from  J  and  carries 
the  block  C.  These  blocks  (Nos.  1.  2.  3.  4.  5.  6. 
7)  vary  in  thickness  at  D  in  32nds  of  an  inch 
(see  table.  Fig.  16).  The  cam  E  has  a  lift  which 
gives  a  feed  of  100th  of  an  inch  to  one  revolution 
of  the  shell.  The  tools  K  and  L  are  against 
each  other,  the  distance  M  being  I  32  larger 
than  the  finished  shell,  which  permits  the  tool 
K  (recessing)  to  be  brought  to  the  left  1/32  of 
an  inch  to  take  a  finishing  cut  off  the  side  of 
the   recess. 


The  turret  carries  three  independent  tools — A 
the  circular  grooving  tool :  B  the  flat  waving 
tool,  which  is  operated  by  a  face  cam  running 
against  the  roller  C.  The  coil  spring  E  keeps 
the  tool  holder  against  the  cam.  The  undercut- 
ting tools  F  are  mounted  in  the  holders  G,  which 
have  racks  cut  in  their  shanks.  The  gear  H 
meshes  with  G.  and  by  means  of  the  handle  J 
(through  the  worm  and  worm  wheels  K)  the 
tnols    are    fed    forward. 


FIG.  20. 
The  ring   A   is  a   slide  fit  over  the  base  end   of 
the   shell,    the   distance    B    being    equal   to   one-half 
the  width  of  the  planing   chisel. 


FIG.  21. 

The  nose  of  the  shell  is  screwed  on  the  threads 
A.  The  threaded  lock  nut  is  then  driven  against 
the  nose  (the  taper  C  being  18'  to  match  the 
taper  of  the  fuse  hole  angle).  The  taper  shank 
D    fits    the    lathe    spindle.

srBM.\RINES  TO  RAISE  SUNKEN 
SHIPS 

THAT  the  submarine  considered  as  an 
engineering  creation  may  be  put  to  prac- 
tical constructive  use  in  salvaging  sunk- 
en ships  seems  likely  from  the  details 
■srhich  hare  been  received  regarding  an 
invention  by  W.  D.  Sisson,  an  American 
engineer.  Full  particulars  of  the  con- 
trivance are  not  at  present  available, 
but  from  snch  as  are  given  the  genera; 
working  scheme  may  be  deduced. 

The  four  accompanying  engravings 
are  from  photographs  taken  in  the  shop 
where  the  diving  bell  was  built,  and  it  is 
uncertain  whether  it  has  yet  received  its 
initial  test  in  actual  working  conditions. 

The  hull  is  a  vanadium  steel  sphere. 
8  ft.  in  diameter,  and  consists  of  two 
halves  with  a  water-tight  joint,  by  means 
of  which  they  are  bolted  together.  It  is 
built  sufficiently  strong  to  withstand  the 
high  pressure  which  will  be  encountered 
when  submerged  to  great  depths  and  is 
roomy  enough  for  the  two  operators  and 
the  working  apparatus. 

The  object  of  the  invention  is  to  pro- 
vide a  device  which  will  drill  hobs  in  the 
sides  of  the  sunken  ships,  thus  affording 
a  means  of  attaching  a  series  of  sunken 
pontoons   to   the   vessel    to   be   lifted,   so

that  when  the  requisite  number  of  pon- 
toons is  in  position  the  water  in  them 
may  be  pumped  out,  and  the  resulting 
buoyansy  w-ill  lift  the  ship.  The  drills 
used  are  2  in.  in  dia.  and  driven  by  elec- 
tric motors  inside  the  shell.  The  sphere 
is  held  tightly  against  the  sides  of  the 
vessel  on  which  it  is  operating  by 
means  of  a  series  of  electro-magnets  at- 
tached to  the  outside  of  the  sphere  by 
spindles  passing  through  holes  in  the 
four  adjustable  saddles,  which  may  be 
seen  in  the  two  engravings.     Four  3,000 


candle-power  incandescent  electric  lamps 
enclosed  within  a  2  in.  glass  protector, 
reinforced  with  steel  net,  are  attached 
near  the  magnets,  outside  the  shell,  for 
throwing  light  on  the  work  and  the 
operators  are  enabled  to  see  what  they 
are  doing  by  looking  through  lenses  -1 
in.   thick   in  the  sphere. 

It  may  be  explained  thai  the  stei-l  pon- 
toons which  will  be  used  are  40  ft.  long 
and  15  ft.  dia.  and  each  has  a  lifting 
power  of  ."^OO  tons  when  exhausted.  It 
Is  proposed  to  have  the  subniiirine  guide 
the  pontoons  to  their  places  after  drilling 
the  holes,  and  for  the  purpose  there  are 
four  propellers  and  a  rudder  so  arranged 
as  to  propel  the  globe  in  a  horizontal  or 
vertical  direction,  as  desired,  at  a  speed 
of  two  miles  per  hour.  Just  how  the  ac- 
tual attachment  of  the  pontoons  to  the 
ship  will  be  accomplished  we  are  unable 
to  state. 

The  submarine  and  ecjuipment  weigh 
t!  tons  in  the  air  and  are  lowered  into  the 
water  by  means  of  a  cable  stron;; 
enough  to  support  a  weight  of  50  tons. 
Through  this  cable  also  run  the  wires 
for  carrying  current  to  the  electric  ma- 
chinery and  lights  as  well  as  the  tele- 
phone wires.  The  atmosphere  within  the 
sphere  is  replenished  by  oxvgen  from  u 
cylinder  capable  of  supplying  sufficient 
oxygen  over  a  workin'j  period  of  72 
hours.  Chemicals  are  doubtless  provid- 
ed to  absorb  the  carbonic  acid  gas  pro- 
duced by  respiration.

tendent of  the  Wagner  Electric  Manu- 
facturing Company,  of  St.  Louis,  declar- 
ed at  the  recent  convention  of  the  Am- 
erican Society  of  Mechanical  Engineers 
that  the  women  workers  in  munitions 
and  other  plants  who  consent  to  wear 
overalls  are  of  the  masculine  type  and 
are  usually  lacking  in  sex-consciousness. 
He  believed,  however,  that  all  women 
workers  in  a  plant  should  be  made  to 
dress  alike  and  his  plant  had  found  out

by  experience  that  the  best  clothes  for 
women  workers  were  a  dark  skirt,  an 
unfadeable  blue  linen  waist  of  standard 
design  and  a  uniform  apron.  He  said 
that  al!  women  workers  would  usually 
obey  such  rules  about  their  clothes  pro- 
vided the  rule  were  enforced  for  every- 
one. The  uniform  clothes  were  optional 
on  Saturdays  as  many  women  desired  to 
shop  on  the  half  holiday.  Woman  work- 
ers had  usually  an  inherent  fear  of  men 
and  were  willing  to  follow  to  the  letter 
rules  laid  down  for  them. 

Mr.  Lord  said  that  in  employing 
women  successfully  in  plants  many  lit- 
tle things  hid  to  be  taken  care  of  that 
would  contribute  to  their  contentment  of 
mind  without  which  they  were  not  effi- 
cient. He  said  that  all  the  machines  in 
the  shops  of  his  company  employing 
women  were  painted  white  and  special 
attention  had  to  be  given  to  cheerfulness 
and  cleanliness  throughout  the  work- 
rooms and  conveniences.  He  also  said 
that  in  his  plant  there  were  on  an  aver- 
age of  two  marriages  per  month  among 
the  employees  and  they  were  always 
very  successful  chiefly  because  under  the 


conditions   of   working,   women   depended 
entirely    upon    their    natural    advantages 
to  attract  the  men,  and  the  clothes  con 
sciousness    and     vanity    of     the     woman 
were   eliminated.

FERRO-CON CRETE   WORK 

By   O.   C. 

IT  has  always  been  the  policy  of  modern 
engineers  to  encourage  the  design  of 
machines  for  the  efficient,  rapid  and  econ- 
omical performance  of  work  formerly 
carried  out  entirely  by  manual  labor; 
The  extended  employment  of  machinery 
is  more  than  ever  necessary  to-day  in 
view  of  the  existing  labor  shortage.  Ow- 
ing to  the  circumstance  that  ferro-con- 
crete  work  is  executed  on  the  site  with- 
out previous  preparation  of  the  mate- 
rials, the  suggestion  may  perhaps  be 
made  that  this  class  of  work  offers  lil- 
lle  scope  for  labor  saving  appliances. 
That  may  be  so  in  comparison  with  steel 
construction,  for  which  a  large  amount 
of  preliminary  work  has  to  be  carried  oui 
in  the  machine  shops,  the  fitting  shops, 
and  the  erecting  yard,  but  mechanical 
aids  are  of  much  value  to  the  reinforced 
concrete  builder. 

Amongst  them  may  be  mentioned  ap- 
pliances for  handling  materials  deliver- 
ed on  the  site,  machinery  for  crushing, 
.screening  and  otherwise  preparing  ag- 
gregates in  mixing  concrete,  for  hoistnig

and  distributing  this  mixed  material  ex- 
peditiously to  the  places  where  it  is  to 
be  used,  for  cutting,  bending,  and  other- 
wise preparing  bars  and  strips,  employ- 
ed as  reinforcement,  and  for  various 
woodworking  operations  incidental  to  the 
construction  of  moulds,  not  to  mention 
anything  of  the  elaborate  plant  required 
in  connection  with  the  execution  of  large 
contracts.  It  is  sometimes  possible  to 
execute  all  the  necessary  work  by  means 
of  very  simple  mechanical  appliances 
but  as  a  general  rule  it  will  be  found 
.■'dvantageous  to  make  a  special  study  of 
the  aids  available  for  the  substitution 
of  machinery  in  the  nlace  of  hand  labor.

the  upper  view  of  Fig.  1  a  pot  castin;; 
from  which  these  blocks  are  made  is 
shown,  and  it  will  be  noticed  in  this  con- 
nection that  a  round  beveled  llanire  i.- 
cast  al  one  end.  This  flange  is  for  (irip- 
pinE  purposes  while  performinR  the 
various  operations.

AND    FINISHED    BIXJCK. 

In  making  these  square  blocks,  the 
operations  are  performed  in  the  follow- 
ing manner,  the  first  of  which  is  turninp: 
the  beveled  flange.  This  is  accomplished 
by  jrripping  the  pot  casting  in  a  four- 
jawed  chuck  in  the  usual  manner  on  a 
lathe,  when  by  using  a  broad  nose  tool 
the  beveled  surface  X  is  turned  true,  this 
being  a  necessary  preliminary  opera- 
tion, as  by  so  doing  we  have  a  satisfac- 
tory gripping  surface  from  which  the 
pot  casting  may  be  held  true  while  per- 
forming the  remaining  operations.  The 
second  operation  is  performed  on  a 
chucking  machine,  as  illustrated  by  Fig. 
2.  the  method  of  doing  this  being  ob- 
Tious,  as  it  merely  consists  of  boring  the 
hole  with  the  cutter  A  held  in  a  boring

har,  the  pot  casting  being  gripped  by  the 
flange  in  a  three-jawed  chuck. 

The  boring  bar  at  this  operation  is 
piloted  in  a  bushing  B  held  in  the  chuck. 
Having  bored  the  hole,  it  is  now  neces- 


sary to  miu'hiiK'  the  four  sides  of  the  poi 
v-asting  arul  saw  it  apart.  Machining  of 
the  sides  in  this  case  is  performed  on  a 
-■•haper  using  index  centres,  and  the  nian- 


•HxiCfAma 


FIG.    .H.     METHOD   OF   SHAPING   THE    POT 
CA.STINC    SQUARE. 

ner    of    performing     this     is    shown     by 
Fig.  3. 

For  this  operation  the  pot  casting  is 
again  held  in  a  three-jawed  chuck  A  by 
the  flange,  while  the  other  end  is  sup- 
ported by  means  of  a  plug  B  in  the  bor^d 
hole;  the  plug  is  held  in  an  angle  plate 
C,  which  in  turn  is  bolted  to  the  platen 
of  the  shapcr.  One  side  of  the  pot  cast- 
ing is  now  machined  by  feeding  the  tool 
across  the  work  in  the  usual  manner, 
and  after  one  side  has  been  machined  the 
pot  casting  is  indexed  quarter-way 
round  and  machined  in  the  same  manner. 


FIG.   4.     METHOD   OF   MILLING   OUT    BLOCKS. 

likewise  the  two  remaining  sides  are 
machined,  thus  completing  the  rectangu- 
lar shape  of  the  pot  casting.  In  this 
connection  it  is  well  to  notice  the  recess 
Y  in  the  pot  casting  which  was  provided 
as  tool  clearance  for  shaping  into. 

The  pot  castings  being  now  finished, 
we  come  to  a  very  interesting  operation: 
that  of  cutting  the  pot  casting  into 
blocks.  Anyone  who  is  familiar  with 
turning  square  bars  in  a  lathe  knows 
how  hard  this  operation  is  on  the  tool 
and  machine  when  starting  to  cut,  as  the 
tool  is  only  cutting  during  four  intermit- 
tent periods  of  each  revolution  and, 
therefore,  there  is  a  tendency  for  the 
tool  to  dig  in  or  pound  as  it  takes  the 
cut. 


Nevertheless,  while  the  turning  uf 
square  or  irregular-shaped  work  may  be 
readily  accomplished  in  the  lathe  by 
using  a  rugged  tool,  this  operation  be- 
comes increasingly  dirticult  when  usin^ 
a  narrow  cutting-ofT  tool;  therefore,  it 
was  decided  to  i)erform  the  cutting-olT 
o|H'ration  of  the  blocks  on  a  vertical 
milling  machine,  as  shown  in  Fig.  4.  For 
doing  this  the  gang  of  cutters  A  was 
provided;  the  casting  itself  was  again 
gripped  in  a  chuck  B,  which  in  turn  was 
held  on  a  circular  milling  attachment  C. 
To  cut  off  the  blocks  the  cross-slide  was 
brought  out  enough  to  allow  the  work  to 
be  clear  of  the  cutters  while  it  is  being 
placed  in  the  chuck,  following  this  the 
cross-slide  was  fed  in  until  tho  cutters 
were  through  the  hole  of  the  pot  cast- 
ing. In  this  position  the  cross-slide  of 
the  milling  machine  was  clamped,  when 
by  causing  the  rotary  attachment  to  re- 
volve the  blocks  were  sawed  apart.  A 
view  of  the  pot  casting  showing  the  saw 
cuts  through  it  is  indicated  as  D,  and  it 
will  be  noticed  that  the  upper  cutter  on 
the  arbor  is  a  surface  mill  for  facing  the 
end    of  the   casting. 

Another  point  in  connection  with  this 
gang  of  cutters  is  that  each  cutter  is 
slightly  larger  than  the  one  below,  so 
that  the  upper  block  will  be  cut  off  first 
and  each  one  below  in  turn  will  be  cut  off 
next.

TONS  OF  COAL  IN   ELONGATED 
PILES 
By  N.  G.  Near. 
WHEN  bituminous  coal  is  piled  in  a  coni- 
cal   pile   the    tonnage    in    the   volume    is 
easily     estimated     from     the     formula, 
0.00248  D',  where   D   is  the  diameter  of 
the  pile  in  feet  at  its  base.     But  coal  is 
often  stored  in  elongated  piles,  as  shown 
in    the    accompanying    sketch,    in    which 
case   the   tonnage   of  bituminous   coal    is 
computed  from  the  formula: 

0.00248   D'-f  0.00474  AD"  =  tons 
(bituminous) 
where  A  is  the  length  of  the  "crest"  on 
the  pile  in  feet.     The  best  way  to  deter-

mine  the  length  of  this  crest  is  to  sub- 
tract D  from  the  total  length  of  the  pile 
at  its  base. 

The   sketch   shows   one   of  these   piles 
both  in  elevation  and  in  plan.     The  plan

shows  clearly  how  the  pile  can  be  cut  up 
into  three  parts.  The  two  curved  end 
portions,  when  added  together,  give  us  a 
pure  and  simple  cone,  whence  we  have 
the  0.00248  D'  in  the  formula.  The  cen- 
tral portion  has  a  triangular  section 
from  end  to  end,  and  its  volume  is  one- 
half  as  great  as  would  be  the  volume  of 
a  rectangular  block  having  the  same  base 
and  height.  The  tonnage  in  this  central 
triangular  portion  is  0.00474  AD".  Add- 
ing the  two  together  we,  therefore,  have 
0.00248  D"  + 0.00474  ADl 

Where  the  coal  is  anthracite  instead  of 
bituminous  the  formula  becomes 

O.00172    D' -I- 0.00.33    AD' =  tons 
anthracite. 

D  and  A  are  both  measured  in  feet. 

These  formulas  are  based  on  the  fact 
that  one  ton  of  coal  occupies  38  cu.  ft.  on 
the  average,  whether  anthracite  or 
bituminous.  The  natural  cone  of  anth 
lacite  is  0.25  as  high  as  it  is  in  diameter 
at  its  base.  For  bituminous  coal  the 
value  is  0.36.

LOADING    TIME    FUSES 
By  G.   C.  White. 

ALTHOUGH  there  have  been  many 
thousands  of  time  fuse  component  parts 
made  in  this  country,  there  are  very  few 
who  know  the  essentials  of  the  load- 
ing operation  and  while  not  strictly  of 
a  mechanical  nature  the  process  is  in- 
teresting. Like  the  manufacture  of  com- 
ponents, the  loading  requires  great  ex- 
actitude and  attention  to  detail.  It  is  not 
the  intention  of  this  article  to  deal  with 
all  the  operations  necessary  in  loading, 
hut  to  give  a  general  idea. 

Holes   to   Be   Drilled 

The  real  loading  is  performed  on  the 
top  and  bottom  rings  by  pressing  a 
certain  mixture  of  powder  or  composi- 
tion, as  it  is  called,  into  the  routing- 
channel.  This  composition  must  have  a 
vent  in  order  that  it  may  burn,  for  if 
there  were  no  vent  and  the  burning  were 
confined,  an  explosion  would  occur  and 
the    .clow   burning    or    time    effect    would 


FIG.    1. 


be  lost.  The  vents  are  what  the  manu- 
facturer of  components  calls  the  escape 
holes  and  they  are  elliptical  in  shape  on 
the  British  fuse.  The  escape  holes  are 
connected  with  the  composition  channels 
by  holes  drilled  through  the  escape  hole. 
The  extreme  end,  next  to  the  flash  hole 


where  the  flame  from  the  detonator  in 
time  pellet  comes  through  into  the  ring, 
is  drilled  with  a  hole  in  the  powder  vent 
called  the  vent  hole,  which  enables  the 
powder  to  commence  burning,  until  such 
time  as  the  powder  pellets,  which  have 
been  inserted  into  the  hole  connecting 
up  the  end  of  composition  channel  ant! 
escape  hole  and  the  escape  hole  itself, 
can  be  ignited. 

Jigs  for  Drilling  Holes 

All  work  done  in  drilling  these  holes 
and  in  routing  is  located  by  a  work  hole. 
The  jigs  used  are  shown  in  Figures  2,  3 
and  4,  and  their  operation  needs  no  ex- 
planation. The  jig  for  drilling  the  flash 
hole  in  bottom  ring  is  somewhat  dif- 
ferent from  that  used  for  the  top  ring 
as  it  must  be  drilled  and  counterbored. 
The  jig  proper  is  made  with  a  wing 
and   after  the  counterbore  is  drilled   the 


wing  is  thrown  out  of  the  way  and  the 
jig  moved  along  the  guides  until  it 
strikes  the  stop,  when  the  other  hole  is 
drilled.  A  double  spindle  Avey  drill  is 
used.  All  these  operations  are  done  after 
the  fuse  composition  has  been  pressed  in. 

Blending  and  Loading  the  Powder 

The  blending  of  the  powder  is  a  very 
important  part  of  the  loading  and  in 
this  department  nothing  is  left  to  chance. 
The  powder  used  for  loading  is  of  two 
kinds,  grain  and  mealed,  but  for  the 
purpose  of  this  description  it  is  unne- 
cessary to  go  into  the  details  of  their 
respective  merits.  It  is  sufficient  to  say 
that  there  is  very  little  difference  in  their 
efficiency.  The  powder  is  divided  into 
two  grades,  low  powder  21. .5  to  21.8  sec- 
onds and  high  powder  22.2  to  22..5  sec- 
onds.   The   ideal  blend  is  of  course  half 


and  half,  but  it  Is  sometimes  necessary 
to  mix  two  to  one.  A  trial  mixture  i.- 
made  up  and  sample  fuses  are  tested  at 
rest  in  an  electrical  machine  which  auto- 
matically records  the  length  of  time  con- 
sumed. A  sample  is  also  tried  by  spin- 
ning   a    fuse    at    2,500    revolutions    per

minute  in  a  specially  designed  lathe  and 
the  time  also  recorded.  If  these  tests 
are  satisfactory,  a  sufficient  quantity  to 
load  a  lot  of  fuses  is  made  up  and  a  re- 
test  is  made.  If  this  is  satisfactory  the 
required  amount  is  weighed  out  and 
sent  in  air-tight  cases  to  the  loading- 
rooms. 

These  loading  rooms  and  the  powder 
blending  department  are  conditioned,  or 
in  other  words  kept  at  a  temperature  of 
70  degrees,  and  at  a  constant  atmos- 
pheric condition,  as  it  is  an  established 
fact  that  barometric  conditions  affect 
the  time  of  burning  and  so  exacting  are 
the  specifications  in  regard  to  the  time, 
that  compensations  must  be  made  for 
variations  in  atmospheric  conditions.  As 
a  safety  first  precaution,  the  loading  de-

partments  are  divided  into  small  com- 
partments, each  capable  of  turning  out 
about  4,000  rings  per  day  with  13  men. 
The  loading  operation  consists  of  weigh- 
ing  out   the   powder,   evenly   distributing

outer  diameter  of  the  ring.  A  circular 
pluvr  is  inserted  into  the  bore  with  n 
press  fit,  the  idea  being  to  prevent  the 
ring  from  distorting  under  the  loading 
pressure  which  is  applied  under  a  slight- 
ly mo<iitied  Riele  or  Olsen  testing  ma- 
chine. The  pressure  required  is  ap- 
proximately 40.000  and  46.000  pounds 
t'or  the  top  and  bottom  rings  respeci- 
ively.  which  works  out  approximately 
29  tons  per  square  inch.  This  pressure 
does  distort  the  ring  and  after  the  cen- 
tre support  has  been  pressed  out  the  bore 
will  close  in.  making  it  necessary  to 
ream  the  ring,  which  is  the  first  assembly

may  be  divided  up  as  per  the  operatiori

TO  deaden  the  noise  from  trucks  rumb- 
ling over  a  concrete  floor,  a  factory  has 
successfully  used  a  heavy  tar  paper 
pasted  to  the  floor  by  paint.  The  method 
of  application  is  as  follows:  The  floor 
to  be  protected  is  first  given  one  coat- 
ing of  grey  cement  paint.  On  the  fol- 
lowing day  when  the  paint  is  thor- 
oughly dry,  a  second  coat  is  applied.  At 
the  same  time  one  side  of  a  five  ply  tar 
paper  is  painted  and  when  both  paper 
and  floor  are  still  wet  the  paper  is  care- 
fully laid,  wet  side  down,  on  the  floor 
and  rolled  with  either  a  roller  or  wide 
tired  truck  until  all  signs  of  air  pockets 
beneath  the  paper  disappear.  The  sur- 
face seems  to  improve  with  age  and 
very  effectively  reduces  noise  at  a  low 
cost    to    the    lowest    possible    minimum.

Modern  Welding  and  Cutting  Processes  in  Locomotive  Works^ 

By  A.   F.   Dyer  **

flic  light  of  scierUifi!'  novelties  is  only  confirmaton/  evidence  of  the  soundness  of  reasonin;/ 
iiml  courage  of  conviction  which  promoted  the  different  pioneers  in  each  line.  The  manner 
in  which  the  two  processes  have  proved  to  be  coinplementarii  to  each  other  ix  additional  en- 
drnce  that  there  /.x  -/  fie-ld  for  ever;/  advancement  in  applied  science. 


AT  the  present  price  of  material, 
scarcity  of  labor  and  difficulty  of 
obtaining:  steel  and  iron,  welding 
and  cuttin,g  by  both  the  above  processes 
has  proved  a  great  boon  and  an  almost 
indispensable  factor  in  railroad  repair 
shops. 

Seven  years  ago  we  employed  one  man 
as  an  acetylene  welder  and  owing  to  fail- 
ures through  his  lack  of  experience  the 
process  was  nearly  condemned,  but  as  we 
gathered  experience  both  gas  and  elec- 
tric welding  developed,  so  that  now  in- 
stead of  one  man  we  employ  eighteen 
and  have  often  to  work  them  overtime. 

Acetylene  Systems 

The  low  pressure  acetylene  gas  system 
is  used  and  the  whole  shops  are  piped  for 
the  acetylene;  every  other  repair  pit  has 
a  drop  connection;  in  roundhouses  we 
use  dissolved  acetylene  in  cylinders, 
which  saves  the  expenses  of  a  generator 
and  piping  where  the  process  is  only  in 
use  occasionally. 

There  is  a  great  difference  in  opinion 
as  to  the  relative  merits  of  high  or  posi- 
tive pressure  and  low  pressure  gas,  the 
manufacturers  of  pressure  outfits  con- 
tending that  you  save  oxygen  by  using 
their  type  of  generators  and  claim  that 
you  can  not  get  so  near  to  a  netural 
flame  with  the  low  pressure  gas  as  you 
can  with  the  high;  the  makers  of  the  low 
pressure  outfits  claim  that  by  the  use 
of  an  injector  embodied  in  the  toi'ch  or 
welding  head  a  neutral  flame  can  easily 
be  obtained;  we  find  we  can  obtain  a 
flame  as  nearly  neutral  as  can  be  obtain 
ed  with  the  outfit  we  use,  although  with 
pressure  gas  you  can  obtain  a  much 
larger  flame  for  the  same  size  head  than 
with  the  low  pressure.  The  principal 
factor,  however,  that  made  us  decide  on 
the  low  pressure  outfit  was  the  fa^ct  that 
our  main  supply  pipes  are  caiTied  over- 
head throughout  the  shops,  and  as  nearly 
all,  if  not  all,  oil,  steam  and  water  pipes 
are  overhead,  we  had  to  consider  a  very 
well  known  motto,  viz.,  "Safety  First," 
for  if  a  man  was  working  overhead  and 
by  mistake  bi'oke  a  joint  of  the  gas  pipe 
his  torch  or  candle  might  cause  an  ex- 
plosion, which  might  wreck  the  shop.  I 
may  say  that,  though  we  have  been 
using  the  acetylene  gas  for  eight  years, 
we  have  never  had  an  explosion  of  any 
sort  yet.  Our  low  pressure  generator 
went  through  a  big  fire  two  years  ago, 
and  we  were  enabled  to  repair  it  and  use 
it  for  several  weeks  till  we  received  our 
new  outfit. 

Electric  Outfits 
There  are  nmny  kinds  of  electric  weld-

inir  outfits  on  the  market,  and,  of  course, 
each  one  is  claimed  to  be  the  best  by  its 
respective  makers;  each  has  its  advan- 
tages., and  the  old  prejudice  very  often 
exists  among  operators  that  the  machine 
they  are  using  and  are  familiar  with  is  the 
best,  and  they  will  stick  to  that  opinion 
until  they  become  accustomed  to  the  new 
machine.  A  new  equipment  using  alter- 
natmg  currents  instead  of  the  direct  cur- 
rent is  now  being  put  on  the  market, 
and  only  weighs  150  lbs.,  and  gives  from 
20  to  200  amperes,  and  is  about  50  per 
cent,  cheaper  than  any  D.C.  machine  on 
the  market. 

The  electric  welding  outfit  consists  of 
two  generators,  each  operating  four 
welding  circuits;  the  shops  are  wired, 
and  at  convenient  places  connection 
boxes  are  placed  and  only  need  a  lead 
and  ground  wire  connected  to  them  and 
the  work  on  which  the  welder  is  en- 
gaged. 

The  outfit  used  has  panel  controls, 
which  allows  each  man  to  control  his 
amperes  independent  of  the  other 
welders. 

The  processes  have  proved  themselves 
fitly  to  be  ranked  amongst  the  greatest 
time  and  labor  savers,  and  also  we  may 
safely  say  money-savers,  introduced  for 
a  long  period.  For  instance,  in  the  not 
very  distant  past,  a  locomotive  with  a 
broken  frame  was  due  for  a  period  of 
several  days  in  the  shops  before  they 
could  strip  down  one  side  and  remove 
the  frame  to  the  smith's  shop,  weld  it, 
and  perhaps  have  it  machined  and  then 
replaced;  now  we  drop  the  pair  of  wheels 
which  may  cover  the  break,  cut  out  the 
crack  with  the  cutting  torch  to  the  shape 
of  a  double  V  at  an  angle  of  90°,  clean 
off  the  oxide  caused  by  cutting  and  weld 
up  with  the  metal  electrode,  using  soft 
steel  or  Swedish  iron,  a  frame  4  in.  x 
5  in.  being-  cut  and  welded  in  under  14 
hours,  and  it  can  be  done  in  less  time  by 
having  two  operators  on  the  frame  at 
once,  but  the  men  do  not  like  facing  each 
other's  arcs,  as  when  they  are  changing 
their  filling  rods  their  eyes  get  sore. 

Frames,  when  worn  by  brake  gear  at.d 
stays,  are  built  up  and  worn  holes  are 
plugged  and  welded  instead  of  reaming 
them  out  to  a  larger  size  and  thereby 
weakening  the  frame.  In  rebuilding  and 
superheating  engines  the  same  boilers 
are  seldom  used  on  their  original  frames, 
and  in  very  few  cases  do  the  various 
holes  in  angle  irons,  furnace  bearers, 
etc.,  come  into  alignment  with  frames  or 
boilers;  these  holes  are  welded  up  and 
redrilled. 

The  present  price  of  tool  steel  demand.s 
that  none  shall  be  wasted;  therefore,  we 
use  it  down  to  the  last  inch  by  welding 
it  to   tire   steel.     Twist  drills,   taps    and 


reamers  when  broken  near  the  socket  end 
are  welded  and  put  into  use  again;  for 
this  purpose  we  use  either  the  electrode 
or  gas,  but  in  both  cases  we  use  vana- 
dium steel  filling  rods,  as  we  find  this 
gives  the  best  results.  Spokes  of  driv- 
ing wheels  are  welded  and  flat  spots  on 
tires  have  been  successfully  welded  up 
when  it  was  necessary  to  do  so. 

Up  to  now  we  have  not  had  much  suc- 
cess on  cast  iron  with  the  iron  electrode: 
although  with  the  carbon  you  can  make 
a  fair  job,  but  the  gas  is  unquestionably 
the  best  for  any  of  this  material.  We 
have  successfully  welded  with  the  gas, 
steam  shovel  engine  frames,  slides  and 
cylinders  by  welding  in  patches  of  cast 
iron  where  worn  or  broken.  When  our 
contract  for  shells  was  completed  and 
the  lathes  that  were  used  for  this  pur- 
pose were  being  overhauled,  it  was 
found  that  most  of  the  V  slide  beds 
were  worn  down  by  the  tool  carriers; 
these  were  built  up  with  the  gas,  which 
saved  machining  these  beds  down  in 
many  cases  %  in.  . 

Boiler  W^ork 

In  regard  to  boiler  work,  most  of  the 
welding  is  done  with  the  iron  electrode, 
using  a  mild  steel  or  Swedish  iron  as  a 
filler;  it  is  found  that  the  electric  pro- 
cess localizes  the  heat  more  so  than  the 
gas,  though  it  is  the  writer's  humble 
opinion  that  the  gas  makes  a  closer  and 
neater  weld,  as  all  welds  made  by  the 
electrode  are  more  or  less  porous  unless 
hammered  up.  It  pays  better  whenever 
possible  to  do  so  to  put  quarter  or 
half  sides  in  order  to  get  out  of  the  fire 
line  in  preference  to  putting  in  a  patch, 
for,  as  a  rule,  however  well  the  patch  is 
wielded  it  generally  gives  out  in  from 
twelve  to  eighteen  months'  service,  and 
the  same  applies  to  cracks,  whereas  th« 
half  or  quarter  side  should  last  as  long 
as  the  firebox. 

When  a  nest  of  small  cracks  is  found 
round  the  staybolts  the  bolts  are  re- 
moved and  the  holes  countersunk  and 
welded  up.  This  method  has  been  found 
to  be  very  successful.  Corner  patches 
are  welded  in  by  running  the  patch  into 
the  tube  or  back  sheets,  as  the  case  may 
be,  at  the  same  time  removing  the 
flanges.  If  it  is  decided  to  do  away  with 
a  number  of  tubes,  plugs  are  welded  in 
the  holes,  first  countersinking  the  hole.> 
and  having  the  plugs  punched  by  a  coun- 
tersunk die  which  gives  the  proper  bevel 
for  welding. 

A  great  deal  of  trouble  vvas  experi- 
enced when  welding  in  the  superheater 
flues  and  tubes  when  this  was  first  start- 
ed, but  after  a  little  experience  much 
better  success  was  arrived  at.  Some  op- 
erators prefer  the  tubes  belled  and  othevd

pr«;f«-r   them    bt-iiilvit;    some    prvfcr    tho 
water  in  the  boil«>r  and  others  do  not. 

The  operators  I  am  connected  with 
like  the  belled  metho<ls  best  and  with  the 
water  in  the  boiler.  Thi|^  keeps  the  tube 
sheet  from  heating,  especially  round  the 
smaller  tubes.  Tubes  are  set  in  with 
eopper  ferrules  set  back  1  32  in.  and  the 
tlues  ar\'  belled  out  3  16  in.  to  7  32  in. 
and  the  small  tubes  3  J6  in.  The  sheet 
is  roughened  all  round  the  tubes  and 
Hues,  and  the  oil  is  then  burnt  otT  with 
the  oxy-acetylene  flame  and  tubes  and 
flue*  welded  in  with  electrode,  usini:  Si 
in.  mild  steel  or  Sweilish  iron;  the  latter 
is  preferred  if  caulkinj:  is  needed. 

Output   I'erformance 

A  sample  of  an  average  day's  work  is

U  rivet  holes  in  smokebox  and  4  pejr 
holes  in  foundation  ring. 

10  tube  holes  in  upper  portion  of  tire- 
k»x  tube  sheet.

to  2%  in.

Cut  out  3  sets  of  boiler  tubes. 

Cut  out  1  set  of  superheater  flues. 

Build  up  caulking  edge  of  fire  hole. 

Heated  comers  of  tube  sheet  for 
closing. 

Welded  broken  superheater  damper 
bracket. 

Built  up  reversing  lever  where  worn. 

Built  up  2  side  rods  where  worn. 

Cut  out  48  flexible  staybolts  in  firebox. 

Welded  2  cracks  ir  throat  sheet. 

.Air  Brake  Department: 

1  broken  flange  of  air  brake  cylinder. 

In  addition  to  this  list  two  men  are  en- 
gaged continuously  on  cutting  around 
the  shops. 

For  cutting  steel  and  wrought  iron  the 
oxy-acetylene  process  has  practically  no 
competitor,  it  being  impossible  with  the 
carbon  point  to  cut  as  fast  or  as  fine  and 
neatly  as  the  gas  torch,  although  for 
scrapping  fireboxes  and  frames,  the  car- 
bon point  is  cheaper  if  time  is  no  object 
and  labor  cheap. 

The  foregoing  examples  only  enum- 
erate a  very  small  fraction  of  the  uses 
to  which  the  two  methods  of  welding  and 
cutting  are  being  put  to  in  locomotive 
repairing  and  machine  shops,  and  fresh 
use?  are  being  found  for  it  every  day. 

Both   Processes   Valuable 

No  roundhouse  should  be  without  an 
oxy-acetylene  outfit,  both  for  repair  work 


and  as  a  p;irt  of  the  wrecking  outltl; 
many  days  are  lost  by  engines  being  tied 
up  through  |>arts  having  to  be  sent  to 
the  lu'arest  big  shops  for  repair,  which 
could  be  repaired  on  the  spot  with  a 
welding  and  cutting  outfit.  All  large 
roundhouses  should  have  both  processes, 
as  they  would  pay  for  themselves  over 
and  over  again. 

In  concluding,  1  would  stiite  that 
though  there  are  many  different  opinions 
as  to  which  is  the  best  process,  no  shop 
is  complete  unless  it  has  both  equip- 
ments, although  the  gas  has  really  the 
widest  range,  but,  on  the  other  haiul,  a 
heavy  piece  of  steel  or  iron  needs  no  pre- 
iieating  with  the  electrode,  but  welding 
can  be  commenced  as  soon  as  your  are  is 
drawn;  95  per  cent,  of  the  failures  which 
occur,  instead  of  being  laid  on  the  pro- 
cess, should  be  placed  on  the  shoulders 
of  the  operators. 

Welding  should  not  be  treated  as  a 
side  line  of  the  machinists'  or  boiler- 
makers'  business,  but  should  be  treated 
as  a  trade  in  itself,  as  it  really  is,  for  it 
needs  the  entire  concentration  of  a  man's 
mind,  careful  study,  plenty  of  practice 
and  a  conscientious  man  to  make  a 
welder. 

Wherever  possible  a  separate  building 
or  suitable  space  should  be  provided  for 
bench  work,  and  should  be  equipped  with 
a  suitable  furnace  for  heating  ana  an- 
nealing castings,  and  also  have  plenty  of 
floor  room  to  allow  of  charcoal  fires  be- 
ing built  for  preheating  cast  iron  .jobs 
for  welding.

A   TREATISE  ON   SHELL 
VARNISHING 

By  Chief  Examiner 
THE  question  of  varnishing  a  high  ex- 
plosive shell  is  one  the  importance  of 
which  cannot  possibly  be  too  strongly 
impressed  upon  the  minds  of  all  concern- 
ed in  its  manufacture.  Many  lives  have 
been  wantonly  sacrificed,  and  countless 
dollars  worth  of  damage  has  been  done, 
through  carelessly  and  improperly  var- 
n'shed  shells. 

Why  is  a  shell  varnished  at  all  ?  To 
irive  it  a  nice,  pretty  appearance  ?  No. 
It  is  varnished: — First,  to  make  abso- 
lutely certain  that  the  bore  is  smooth — 
perfectly  smooth;  second,  to  protect  the 
bore  from  rust;  third,  to  prevent  the 
high  explosive  from  coming  in  contact 
with  the  steel  and  thereby  forming 
"Picric." 

Now  comes  the  question — What  is  the 
best  varnish  to  use  ?  The  obvious 
answer  is  "That  which  has  passed  the 
government  analytical  test."  But  it  does 
not  follow  that  "passing  the  test"  i-s 
enough.  This  test  is  principally  to  en- 
sure that  no  lead  is  in  any  of  the 
ingredients  used  in  making  up  the  var- 
nish— not  even  a  "trace"  of  lead.  It 
may  pass  the  test  well  enough,  and  yet, 
may  not  function  properly  when  ap- 
plied to  the  shell.  Again,  the  varnish 
may  be  good,  but  may  not  be  applied  in 
the  right  manner.  Or  the  shell  may  not 
have  been  properly  cleaned  before  being 
varnished.     These    points   are   all    worth 


tonsiilcralion  and  might  be  discussed  in- 
dividually. 

How  to  Clean  .Shells 

I.et  us  begin  at  the  beginning  and 
take  the  (piestion  of  cleaning  lirst.  Some 
lirms  .wash  the  shell  thoroughly  with 
gasoline  or  benzoline  and  then  dry  it 
out  with  rags.  This  is  a  method  that 
often  causes  trouble  partly  owing  to  the 
poor  quality  of  the  gasoline  of  the 
present  day.  Some  of  it  is  more  like 
kerosene  or  coal  oil  than  gasoline,  and 
possesses  a  kind  of  grease  which  re- 
mains on  the  steel  in  a  white  lilni 
after  the  spirit  has  evaporated. 

Then,  again,  the  rags  that  are  used 
should  not  have  any  lint  on  them  be- 
cause this  is  sure  to  stick  to  the  steel. 
It  is  very  important  to  be  sure  that  the 
compressed  air — if  such  is  u.sed  for  dry- 
ing out — is  (|uite  dry  because,  if  not  dry, 
spots  of  rust  will  form  on  the  steel 
after  the  varnish  has  been  applied,  and 
has  dried  or  been  baked. 

Some  firms  merely  blow  out  the  shell 
and  wipe  it  thoroughly  with  a  succes- 
sion of  rags.  This  method  never  brings 
success.  Other  firms  wash  the  shell  in  a 
solution  of  soda  or  soda  preparation 
used  at  almost  boiling  point.  This  is 
not  approved  of  on  account  of  the  soda 
getting  in  between  the  steel  and  copper 
band,  and  thereby  forming  verdigris. 
Besides  thi.s,  it  is  almost  impossible  to 
remove  all  traces  of  the  soda,  and  as  a 
natural  consequence  neither  the  var- 
nish inside,  nor  the  paint  outside,  will 
adhere  to  the  steel. 

The  best  knovn  method,  the  one  which 
is  sure  to  bring  the  best  results,  is  the 
following — it  is  of  course  a  little  more 
expensive  to  operate,  but  when  one 
comes  to  add  so  much  for  every  shell 
that  has  to  be  "rectified"  for  varnish — 
i.e.  revamished — perhaps  the  more  ex- 
pensive wav  is  the  cheapest  after  all. 
Wash  the  interior  with  a  jet  of  steam 
hot  solution  of  one  of  the  cleansers  per- 
mitted by  the  government  inspector. 
Then  dry  it.  after  washing  it  in  per- 
fectly clean  hot  water,  bv  using  1st.  a 
mop.  2nd,  a  dry  cloth.  3rd.  a  clean  dry 
cloth,  4th,  chamois  skin,  5th,  a  perfectly 
clean  chamois — then  anply  the  varnish 
while  the  shell  is  warm,  and  vou  will 
get  a  varnish  coat  that  is  absolutely 
smooth,  clean,  and  free  from  over- 
lapping. 

.Applying  the  Varnish 
Some  firms  prefer  the  spray  or  var- 
nish gun,  while  others  like  the  pouring 
method  best.  Splendid  success  has  been 
attained  with  each  method,  but  with  the 
pouring  there  is  invariably  more  trouble 
caused  by  the  varnish  getting  into  the 
threads  in  the  nose.  This  must  of 
course  be  completely  removed,  thereby 
causing  more  work  and  discontent — be- 
cause it  certainly  is  a  tedious  job. 

There  is  very  little  airdrying  varnish 
used  now-a-days,  because  the  authorities 
in  England  do  not  approve  of  it.  The 
varnish  used,  should  be  copal  baking. 
There  are  two  sorts — clear  and  dyed. 
Take  my  advice  and  always  use  the 
clear  stuff.  All  imperfections  and  dirt 
can   be   at    once   seen   through   the   clear

varnish,  but  with  the  colored  stuff  im- 
perfections may  be  and  are  covered  up. 
It  has  been  known  where,  in  certain 
cases,  this  covering  up  with  a  second 
coat  of  the  dyed  varnish  has  been  done 
on  purpose,  to  save  the  trouble  and  ex- 
pense— about  30c — of  revarnishing-  the 
shell.  No  examiner,  if  he  would  be  con- 
sidered any  good  at  all,  will  pass  any 
varnish  that  is  in  slightest  degree  faulty, 
or  of  which  he  is  not  absolutely  sure. 
If  he  is  in  the  slightest  doubt  whatever, 
he  should  have  the  shell  varnished 
again,  the  old  varnish  being  thoroughly 
removed,  whether  the  firm  like  it  or 
not.  The  varnish  question  is  too  im- 
portant to  be   trifled   with. 

In  the  earlier  days  of  shell  making, 
it  was  permissible  to  use  air-drying 
varnish.  This  has,  however,  been  done 
away  with,  except  in  some  special 
cases,  because  it  was  found  that  it 
cracked  and  peeled  off  after  the  shell 
had  been  stored  for  some  time,  thereby 
leaving  bare  spots  of  steel  exposed  to 
the  action  of  the  explosive.  It  has  been 
found  much  better,  and  safer  to  use 
copal  baking  varnish.  This,  as  I  said 
before,  should  be  applied  while  the  shell 
is  warm.  The  shell  is  then  placed  in 
an  oven  and  baked  for  from  2  to  2  ¥2 
hours   at   a   temperature   of  .300   deg.   F. 

Baking   Hints 

When  a  number  of  shells  are  placed 
in  the  oven  at  one  time,  the  shells  being 
cold  naturally  reduce  the  temperature 
of  the  oven,  so  that  it  is  very  neces- 
sary to  note  exactly  how  much  this  is 
reduced  and  give  the  shells  the  extra 
time  required.  The  shells  should  not  be 
loft  in  the  oven  too  long.  If  this  is  done 
the  varnish  will  come  out  burnt  and 
consequently  flake  off,  which  is  just  as 
bad  as  air-drying.  The  steel  also  takes 
on  a  burnt  color  and  the  inspector  will 
turn  the  shell  back  to  be  polished  with 
emery  cloth,  to  enable  him  to  give  it  a 
pi'oper    visual    examination. 

Great  care  and  constant  watchfulness 
is  therefore  required  when  baking,  and 
a  firm  is  wise  to  appoint  a  man  to  act 
as  inspector  for  them  who  not  only 
thoroughly  understands  the  varnish 
question,  but  who  will  give  his  entire 
attention  to  the  w^ork. 

If  a  shell  is  not  properly  varnished 
and  is  sent  out  to  be  re-done,  every 
scrap  of  the  old  varnish  must  be  re- 
moved by  blasting,  or  otherwise,  and  the 
old  varnish  being  baked  hard  is  some- 
times difficult  to  remove.  Not  only  this, 
the  time  taken  in  re-doing  work  that 
should  have  been  properly  done  at  first 
means  money  lost  to  the  firm  and  ow- 
ing to  the  extra  time  taken  in  re-bak- 
ing sometimes  a  whole  .shipment  is 
held  up  for  the  sake  of  half  a  dozen 
shells. 

Sometimes  the  varnish  take.^  a 
mottled  or  piebald  appearance.  This 
is  mainlv  due  to  spots  of  greasy  gaso- 
line, and  means  that  while  the  snotted 
portion  mav  be  covered  the  covering  is 
much  thinner  on  the  spots  than  on  the 
remainder.  Therefore  this  would  con- 
stitute a  dangerous  varnish  to  pass. 
A   great   deal   of  trouble   is   caused  by 


the  varnish  "running" — overlapping. 
The  specifications  call  for  a  "smooth 
continuous  coat,"  therefore  if  an  over- 
lapping or  wave  develops,  the  shell  has 
to  be  re-done.  Patching  up  faulty  places 
in  the  varnish  is  not  acceptable  because 
these  patches  bake  hard,  and  cause 
roughness    on   the    surface. 

Another  good  point  to  remember,  is, 
never  let  your  varnish  thicken  up.  As  it 
is  against  the  rules  to  "thin"  it  out,  a 
firm  will  be  wise  if  they  buy  their 
varnish  in  one  gallon  cans,  and  not  by 
the   barrel. 

Conclusion 

To  sum  up — The  points  to  watch  are 
perfect  cleanliness  before  varnishing,  or 
the  varnish  will  not  adhere.  Apply  the 
vai'nish  while  the  shell  is  warm. 
Whether  using  the  "gun"  or  pouring 
method,  watch  for  overlapping.  Be 
exact  in  the  baking  time.  Don't  do  any 
"patchwoi'k."  When  cleaning  the 
threads  be  careful  not  to  let  drops  of 
"Taxite,"  "Brantine,"  or  otner  strong 
varnish  remover  fall  into  the  shell,  be- 
cause if  you  do  that  shell  will  have  to 
be   re-varnished. 

When  one  thinks  it  all  over,  one  sees 
how  simple  the  whole  thing  is,  provided 
of  course,  that  the  men,  boys,  or  girls, 
in  the  varnish  room,  are  interested  in 
their  work.  As  remarked  at  the  begin- 
ning of  the  article,  the  varnish  question 
is  one  the  importance  of  which  cannot 
possibly  be  too  strongly  impressed  on 
the  minds  of  all  concerned — manufac- 
turers, shop  inspectors,  yes,  and  govern- 
ment men  too.  A  chief  examiner  is  held 
personally  responsible  on  the  vai'nish 
question  and  he  is  a  fool  if  he  yields 
one  fraction  of  an  inch    in  this  matter.

WHEELS   FOR   GRINDING   STELLITE 

CONSIDERABLE  interest  has  been 
shown  lately  in  the  grinding  of  stellite. 
Much  depends  upon  the  personal  element 
and  grinding'  conditions.  A  recent  num- 
ber of  Grits  and  Grinds  contained  some 
recent  experiments  conducted  in  labora- 
tories and  in  some  shops  where  consider- 
able of  this  material  is  being  used,  which 
may  prove  helpful  to  those  who  have  had 
stellite  grinding  as  one  of  their  prob- 
lems. The  tests  were  conducted  in  order 
to  answer  the  following  questions: 

1.  Do  the  different  grades  of  stellite 
require  different  grinding  wheels  on  the 
same  operation? 

2.  WTiat  grains,  grades  and  abrasives 
are  most  satisfactory  for  cylindrical 
grinding,  surface  grinding,  tool  and  cut- 
ter grinding  and  cut-off  grinding? 

3.  Is  there  any  advantage  in  wet 
grinding? 

4.  Are  wheels  commonly  employed  for 
hardened  carbon  and  high  sneed  steels 
satisfactory  for  grinding  stellite  ? 

5.  Will  finer  grits  be  better  than  those 
usually  employed  for  steel  tools  ? 

The  conclusions  reached  by  these  labo- 
ratory reports  and  by  reports  from  sales- 
men of  the  various  territories  where 
stellite  is  ground  successfully  are  as  fol- 
lows: 

1.  The   No.   38  alundum   is  by  far  the 


most  desirable  abrasive  for  the  precision 
operations  and  most  of  the  tool  grinding. 
However,  regular  alundum  is  satisfac- 
tory for  the  cut-off  grinding  and  may  be 
used  for  free-hand  grinding  of  heavy 
tools. 

2.  Vitrified  wheels  should  be  used  in 
preference  to  silicate  or  elastic. 

3.  No.  3  stellite  seems  to  require 
slightly  finer  and  softer  wheels  than  No. 
2  stellite. 

4.  The  advantage  of  wet  grinding, 
especially  on  the  precision  grinding  op- 
erations, is  in  more  rapid  and  accurate 
sizing  of  the  work  and  slight  retardance 
of  glazing.  Finish  is  also  somewhat  im- 
proved. On  tool  grinding  no  pronounced 
improvement  in  wet  grinding,  except 
that  it  keeps  the  wheel  face  cleaner 
and  enables  the  operator  to  handle  the 
tools  easier. 

5.  Wheels  used  for  stellite  are  inter- 
changeable to  a  certain  extent  with  those 
used  for  high  speed  steel  grinding.  This 
applies  especially  on  the  precision  grind- 
ing operations.  On  the  free-hand  opera- 
tions, our  laboratory  tests  call  for  No. 
38  alundum,  slightly  finer  and  softer  than 
would  be  used  on  steel  tools. 

6.  The  general  tendency  is  undoubt- 
edly toward  finer  grits,  while  grades  fol- 
low other  conditions  which  vary  greatly 
in  different  shops.  No.  46  grit  is  the 
I oarsest  size  which  produce  a  satisfac- 
tory finish  in  most  cases. 

7.  For  cylindrical  grinding  we  suggest 
3846-L  on  No.  2  stellite  and  3846-K  or 
38G0-J  on  No.  3. 

8.  For  surfacing  with  straight  wheels 
we  suggest  3836  and  3846-H  on  No.  2 
stellite  and  3846  and  3860-H  on  No.  3 
stellite.  For  surfacing  with  cup  wheels 
approximately  the  same  wheels  may  be 
used,  but  outside  conditions  will  un- 
doubtedly call  for  softer  wheels  on  the 
cup  wheel  gTinding  operations. 

9.  For  tool  grinding  we  suggest  3860- 
M  or  N  as  found  satisfactory  in  our 
tests.  However,  outside  reports  indicate 
'he  same  deviation  from  this,  namely,  36 
and  46-0,  also  46-K  and  GO-J  regular 
alundum. 

10.  For  cut-off  grinding,  60-3  or  46 
grades  4  and  5  alundum  elastic  should  be 
used. 

These  suggestions  and  recommenda- 
tions may  only  serve  as  a  starting  point 
in  many  instances.  Outside  conditions 
and  practice  are  so  varied  that  it  is  im- 
possible to  develop  standards  readily. 
Undoubtedly,  as  stellite  comes  into  more 
general  use,  more  experience  in  grinding 
will  be  obtained  and  then  more  definite 
.statements  and  conclusions  can  be 
drawn.

MANUFACTURING  ACTIVITIES  IN 
THE  U.  S. 

THE  eft'ect  of  three  years  of  war  upon 
the  manufacturing-  industries  of  the 
United  States  can  now  be  measured,  in 
some  degree  at  least,  hy  certain  official 
data  which  renders  possible  the  compari- 
son of  conditions  in  1917  with  those  of 
1914.  An  analysis  by  the  National  City 
Bank  of  New  York  of  figures  of  export 
of  manufactures  compared  with  those  of 
1914   indicates  a   wonderful  development

Thus  the  total  of  manufactures  exported

against  $728,000,000  in  the  same  month.-; 
of  1914. 

Export  Kijtures 

While  this  very  lar^e  increase  occurs, 
to  .1  considerable  extent,  in  strictly  war 
material,  it  also  applies  to  a  lar^re  pro- 
portion of  the  classes  of  >roods  produced 
by  our  manufacturers.  Iron  and  stee! 
manufactures  as  a  whole,  for  example. 
show  a  total  export  value  in  the  eiirht 
months  endins  with  Auirust.  1917,  of 
?»03,767,000.  airainst  $140.24(>,000  in  the 
correspondinir  months  of  1914.  beins  thus 
six  times  as  much  in  value  in  1917  as  in 
1914.  Manufactures  of  cotton  show  in 
the  eieht  months  of  1917  total  exports 
$91,907,000.  airainst  $34,028,000  in  the 
same  months  of  1914.  having  thus  a  little 
more  than  trebled  in  value  of  exports  in 
the  period  in  question.  Cars  and  car- 
riapes,  including  in  this  term  freight  and 
passenger  cars  for  railways,  automo- 
biles, both  freight  and  passenger,  aero- 
planes, motorcycles,  and  bicycles,  show 
a  total  for  the  eight  months  of  1917  of 
$111,073,000,  against  $30.3(51.000  in  1914, 
having  thus  nearly  quadrupled  in  value 
in  the  period  under  consideration.  Copper 
of  all  sorts  exoorted  in  the  eight  months 
of  1917  was  $349676.000.  against  $89,- 
713.000  in  the  same  months  of  1914.  hav- 
ing practically  trebled  in  value  in  the 
three-year  period. 

Paper  and  manufactures  thereof  ex- 
ported in  the  eight  months  of  1917 
amounted  to  S2G841.000.  against  $13.- 
337.000  in  1914.  Tinplate  showed  a  total 
in  1917  of  $24,211,000,  against  $2,950,000 
in  the  same  months  of  1914.  Refined 
sugar,  which  has  seldom  formed  an  im- 
portant factor  in  the  export  trade,  show- 
ed for  the  eight  months  of  1917  exports 
amounting  to  $48,421,000.  against  $2.- 
.595.000  in  the  correspondin.g  months  of 
1914.  The  -wood  and  lumber  industry  is 
apparently  the  only  one  of  the  great 
manufacturing  industries  which  has  not 
prosnered  as  a  result  of  the  war.  the 
total  value  of  wood  and  manufactures 
thereof  exported  in  the  eieht  months  of 
1917  halving  been  but  $41,832,000,  against

Import  Figures 

E%idence  of  the  acti%-ities  of  our  manu- 
factures is  also  shown  bv  an  examination 
of  the  import  figures.  The  bank's  state-

material  imttorted  for  use  in  manufac- 
turing in  the  eight  months  of  1917  is

wool  in  1917  $134,1.39,000,  against  $.50,- 
.521,000  in  the  corresponding  months  of 
1914. 

While  no  official  census  of  manufac- 
tures in  the  United  States  has  been  taken 
since  the  year  1914.  the  very  large  in- 
crease in  production  is  illustrated  not 
only  by  the  above  figures  of  increased 
imports  of  manufacturing  material  and 
increased  exports  of  manufactures,  but 
also  by  the  fact  that  the  quantity  of  pig 
iron  produced  in  the  country  in  the  eight 
months  ending  with  August,  1917,  was 
25,660,000  tons,  against  16,3.55,000  tons 
in  the  same  months  of  1914,  and  that  the 
quantit.v  of  cotton  used  by  the  factories 
of  the  United  States  has  increased  ap- 
proximately 25  per  cent,  in  the  same 
period  indicates  that  the  actual  quantity 
of  manufactures  turned  out  has  enor- 
mously increased,  while  the  advance  in 
prices  has  still  further  increased  the 
total  value  of  the  output  as  compared 
with  1914.

It.  C.   FISHEItlKS 

THE  report  of  the  British  Columbia 
I''isheries  Department  for  the  year  ended 
.March  31  has  been  issueil. 

The  report  shows  that  the  value  of  llic 
fishery  products  of  Briti.sh  Columbia  for 
the  twelve  months  was  $14,538,320. 
which  represented  40.54  per  cent,  of  the 
fishery  jiroducts  of  the  Dominion,  whicli 
totalled  $35,86(1,708.  The  British  Col- 
umbia production  exceeded  that  of  Nova 
Scotia  by  $5,371,469. 

Notwithstanding  the  fact  that  the 
fisheries  of  the  province  show  an  ir\-

ril.A'l'  till'  greater  portion  of  the  cut- 
over  pulpwood  lands  of  Canada  will  take 
from  30  to  100  years  to  reforest  them-

lumbermen  have  supposed,  is  the  state- 
ment made  by  Dr.  C.  D.  Howe,  of  the 
Faculty  of  Forestry,  University  of  Tor- 
onto, to  the  Commission  of  Conserva- 
tion. 

Of  special  significance,  in  view  of  a 
possibility  of  the  diminishing  coal  re- 
sources of  the  Jnited  States  soon  forc- 
ing Canadian  railways  to  use  hydro- 
electric energy  for  traction  purposes, 
was  the  address  of  S.  T.  Dodd,  traction 
expert  of  the  General  Electric  Co., 
Schenectady,  N.Y.  He  fully  described 
the  electrified  western  section  of  .  the 
Chicago.  Milwaukee  and  St.  Paul  Rail- 
way, which  covers  a  distance  of  440 
miles,  and  has  found  electric  traction  to 
be  considerably  cheaper  than  steam.

ALCOHOL  is  made  from  the  cheapest 
starchy  materials  available,  such  as  pota- 
toes, maize,  turnips,  molasses.  The  raw 
material  is  mashed  with  about  5  per  cent, 
of  malt,  and  fermented  in  the  usual  way. 
After  distillation  in  a  Coffey  still,  the 
spirit  is  diluted  with  water,  filtered 
through  wood  charcoal  to  remove  fusel 
oil  and  redistilled  through  a  fraction- 
ating column.  The  products  are  separated 
into  three  grades:  first  runnings,  and 
first  and  second  quality  spirits.  The 
first  runnings,  containing  about  95  per 
cent,  of  alcohol  with  a  smaH  quantity  of 
.'ildehyde,  may  be  used  for  burning  -t' 
give  rise  to  no  deleterious  effects.  The 
first  and  second  qualities,  which  are  96 
to  97  per  cent,  in  strength  and  contain 
only  traces  of  aldehyde — the  second 
quality  also  containing  a  small  quantity 
of  fusel  oil — are  known  as  silent  spirit. 
because  they  afford  no  evidence  of  their 
source.  These  qualities  are  used  for 
drinking  purposes — liqueurs  and  facti- 
tious brandy  and  whiskey — and  for  phar- 
maceutical preparations.

OVAL   TURNING 

THE  article  on  elliptical  lathe  work 
appearing  in  a  recent  issue  of  this 
journal  reminds  me  of  an  attach- 
ment used  some  time  for  turning  a  few- 
irregular  shapes,  the  dimensions  of  which 
were  not  required  to  be  very  accurate, 
but  had  to  conform  to  the  desired  throw 


rie<l  the  lever  C,  the  upper  end  of  which 
contained  a  small  hardened  steel  piece 
D,  the  point  bearing  on  the  surface  of 
the  eccentric  E.  This  eccentric,  with  a 
throw  of  1%  inches,  or  the  difference  be- 
tween the  major  and  minor  axis,  was 
keyed  to  the  shaft  that  turned  in  the 
bearings    of   the   fork   bracket   B.      This 


tained  by  the  action  of  the  small  cable 
I  and  the  weight  K,  the  former  passing 
over  the  small  pulley  located  on  the  side 
of  the  bracket  J.  Better  results  are  ob- 
tained when  the  strain  is  equalized  by 
using  a  cable  on  either  side  of  the  cross 
slide. 

The  action  of  this  device  is  illu.strated

of  the  difference  of  the  minor  and  major 
axis.  To  hold  ourselves  to  the  dimensions 
given  in  the  article  of  recent  date,  where 
Ihe  major  axis  was  TVz  inches  and  the 
minor  axis  4  inches,  the  oval  was  de- 
veloped from  the  oscillating  motion 
derived  from  an  eccentric,  this  being 
transferred  to  a  reciprocating  movement 
of  the  cross  slide  by  suitable  linkage. 
The   arrangement   of   the    device    as    at- 


shaft  P  was  driven  by  suitable  gearing 
arranged  at  the  rear  of  the  lathe,  so  that 
the  train  could  be  set  up  to  suit  the  work 
required.  The  fulcrum  of  lever  C  was  lo- 
cated in  a  vertical  midway  position  be- 
tween the  two  extreme  points  of  travel  of 
the  controlling  point  of  the  steel  block 
D.  Connection  was  made  between  the 
device  and  the  cros.s  slide  by  means  of 
the  rod  G,  the  small  bracket  H  being  se-

tached  to  a  lathe  is  shown  in  Fig.  1,  the 
work  A  being  held  in  a  chuck  secured  to 
the  face  plate  of  the  machine.  The 
bracket  B  was  secured  to  the  back  of  the 
carriage  and  from  the  lower  support  car- 


cured  in  a  position  to  suit  the  size  of  the 
work.  With  the  cross  feed  screw  re- 
moved, tool  adjustment  is  made  by 
means  of  the  compound  rest;  contact  of 
the   point   on    the   eccentric    being    main- 


by  the  graphical  sketch.  Fig.  2.  It  mu^t 
be  understood  that  to  derive  an  oval  or 
ellipse  from  an  eccentric  in  this  manner 
it  is  necessary  that  the  eccentric  make 
two  revolutions  while  the  work  is  making 
one.  To  determine  the  approximate  out- 
line of  the  oval  that  the  attachment  wfli 
produce  draw  two  circles  representing 
the  two  diameters  of  the  piece  required, 
in  this  case  7%  and  4  inches.  The  centre 
of  motion  of  the  eccentric  will  be  at  X. 
From  this  point  divide  the  circle  into  8 
equal  parts,  each  having  an  angle  of  45 
deg.  The  intersection  of  the  radial  lines 
with  the  eccentric  circle  will  be  the 
points  on  the  circumference  in  contact 
with  the  controlling  point  for  each  45 
deg.  of  movement.  From  the  various 
intersections,  using  X  as  a  centre,  draw 
arcs,  cutting  the  horizontal  diameter  at 
A,  B,  C  and  D,  these  points  representing 
the  lateral  travel  of  the  cross  slide  for 
each  45  deg.  passed  through  by  the  gen- 
erating eccentric;  and  as  the  work  is  re- 
volving at  one-half  the  speed,  it  will  pas.~ 
through  an  angle  of  22 Va  deg.  in  the 
same  period  of  time.  Therefore,  trans- 
ferring these  distances  to  the  portion  of 
the  line  A-B  lying  between  the  two 
circles,  and  describing  arcs  cutting  the 
various  radii  in  the  points  2  ft.,  3  ft., 
etc.,  will  give  the  points  through  which 
the  curve  can  be  developed.  Fig.  3  shows 
the  outline  that  would  result  if  the  eccen- 
tric were  used  in  the  ordinary,  where  the 
centre  of  the  connecting  rod  passes 
through  the  circle  l-b-d-b._  If  the  con- 
necting i-od  were  of  infinite  lengthy  the 
developed  outline  would  be  more  ellipti- 
cal  in  shape  than  here  shown.

detract  from  the  earryinc  capacity  of

ferro-concrete  vessels  to  compete  will, 
steel  vessels  in  normal  times.  Expcri- 
i  n>c  from  ferro-concrete  construction 
..-■u>re  is  not  directly  applicable  to  vc.s- 
>els. 

Fixed  structures,  as  a  rule,  are  onl> 
subjected  to  a  load  the  maximum  of 
which  is  known,  and  which  only  acts  in 
one  direction,  whereas  the  loail  to  which 
a  vessel  may  be  exposed  cannot  directly 
be  calculated,  and  its  direction  is  con- 
stantly varyinii.  especially  in  a  turbulenl 
sea.  Under  these  circumstances,  pcnd- 
injr  fresh  experience,  the  strength  of  a 
ferro-concrete  vessel  must  be  determineil 
by  comparison  with  that  of  a  steel  ves- 
sel of  the  same  type  and  dimensions. 
That,  however,  is  a  diflficult  problem,  as 
a  steel  vessel,  on  account  of  peculiarities 
in  construction  and  buildinjr,  in  some  di- 
rections may  have  more  material  than  is 
necessary  from  preneral  strength  consid- 
erations, and  also  because  several  quali- 
ties of  concrete,  which  it  is  necessary  to 
know  in  order  to  make  fairly  reliable 
comparisons,  with  steel  vessels,  are  not 
yet  sufficiently  ascertiiined. 

The  actual  building:  process  of  a  ferro- 
concrete ship  is  such  that  the  quality  of 
the  material  and  the  workmanship  can- 
not be  controlled  with  the  certainty  ob- 
tainin.e  for  steel  vessels.  The  tensile 
stren.trth  of  concrete  is  very  limited. 
Tensile  stresses  must,  therefore,  be  car- 
ried as  far  as  possible  by  the  reinforcing 
steel.  In  a  floating  structure,  however, 
the  concrete  cannot  be  altogether  guard- 
ed from  tensile  stresses,  which  are  apt 
to  create  small  cracks.  Such  cracks  may 
also  arise  during  the  setting  of  the  con- 
crete. On  shore  they  are  generally  con- 
sidered to  be  of  minor  importance,  but 
it  is  by  no  means  certain  that  such 
cracks  may  not  play  a  different  part  in 
a  vessel  exposed  to  varying  stresses  and 
the  effect  of  penetrating  sea  water. 


THE  GYROSCOPIC  COMPASS 

By  C.  T. 

THE  French  physicist  Foucault  was  the 
first  to  analyse  the  phenomenon  of  the 
gyroscope  which  underlies  its  applica- 
tion to  the  compass.  Foucault's  efforts, 
which  were  made  in  1851,  resulted  in  the 
deduction  of  two  laws:  firstly,  that  a 
rapidly  rotating  wheel  suspended  with 
freedom  to  move  about  all  axes  will 
maintain  its  plane  of  rotation  in  space; 
and  secondly,  that  a  gyroscope  suspend- 
ed will  tend  to  process  or  turn  about  the 
vertical  axis  in  an  effort  to  place  its 
plane  of  rotation  coincident  with  that  of 
the  earth.  The  question  of  utilising  this 
phenomenon  in  an  instrument  which 
would  seek  and  maintain  the  true  north 
meridian,  regardless  of  position,  speed 
or  course,  or  oscillating  movement  of  the 


iHiii_\  .111  «r\irii  It  was  lluuiilU-d,  llivolvcvi 
;i   great  many  problems. 

Early  in  his  work  the  .American  in- 
ventor Sperry  became  convinced  thai  the 
major  problem  was  one  of  pure  engineer- 
ing in  devising  a  suspension  which  would 
be  frictionless  about  the  vertical  axis,  al- 
lowing the  gyroscope  to  turn  with  per- 
fect freedom  in  its  etTort  to  seek  the 
meridian.  The  problem  was  solved  by 
suspending  the  gyroscope  or  sensitive 
element  from  a  strained  wire,  the  top  of 
which'  is  carrieil  in  a  frame  surrounding 
the  gyroscopic  element,  the  frame  bein^' 
oriented  by  an  electric  follow-up  system 
in  such  a  way  as  to  cause  the  fr.'ime  to 
follow  any  tendencies  of  the  gyroscopic 
element  to  move  about  the  vertical  axis. 

Numerous  other  problems  iiuite  as  dif- 
ficult of  solution  were  encountered.  Per- 
haps the  most  difTicult  of  all  was  that  in- 
\olved  in  so  suspending  the  sensitive  ele- 
ment that  it  would  be  unaffected  by  thi 
acceleration  pressures  arising  from 
movements  of  the  vessel  on  which  it  wa.-- 
mounted.  In  developing  that  point  it 
was  necessary  to  collect  a  large  amount 
of  data  relating  to  the  time  taken  by  all 
classes  of  vessels  to  accelerate  from  one 
speed  to  another.  From  this  data,  the 
acceleration  pressures  were  calculated 
and  actually  applied  to  the  experimcnta! 
instrument  by  means  of  weights  allowed 
to  act  for  a  certain  length  of  time.  The 
Sperry  G^To-Compass  as  it  is  in  service 
to-day  demonstrates  how  all  these  diffi- 
cult problems  have  been  solved.

.V  T.\I.K  OF  A  KUN-DOWN  SHOP 

By  H.  Middleton. 
WHEN  Bob  Philips  undertook  the  job 
of  rehabilitating  the  Drew  Hat  Co.  he 
thought  he  would  have  a  great  deal  of 
hydraulic  work  to  do;  in  fact,  it  was  be- 
cause of  his  experience  as  a  machinist 
on  such  work  and  his  ability  as  an  or- 
ganizer that  the  second  generation  of 
Drews  hired  him.  The  elder  Drew'  had 
founded  the  business  shortly  after  he 
came  to  America,  and  having  always 
made  money  in  it,  had  been  satisfied  to 
let  things  go  on  as  they  were;  but  after 
his  death  the  sons  decided  on  a  more  up 
to-date  policy. 

The  hat  business  is  a  big  user  of 
presses  and  steam — hydraulic,  steam, 
lever,  and  toggle  presses.  Philips  found 
the  hydraulic  presses  in  good  shape,  also 
the  accumulators,  pumps,  and  piping: 
they  were  of  English  make,  and  had  been 
in  charge  of  a  Yorkshire  man,  who  took 
pride  in  them  because  of  that.  But  the 
lever  and  toggle  presses  being  so 
"simple."  had  had  little  or  no  care, 
simply  because  they  had  been  left  to  the 
unskilled  hands  who  worked  on  them. 

A  saving  of  over  $500  on  the  first  trip 
through  the  press  room  is  rather  un- 
usual, but  it  was  made  in  this  instance. 
The  hand-operated  presses  are  all  coun- 
terweighted,  and  Philips  noticed  an  un- 
usual form  of  counterweight,  consisting 
of  a  box  filled  with  junk.  His  investiga- 
tion led  to  an  examination  of  the  junk, 
v^hich  proved  to  be  snelter  and  lead — 
and  from  150  to  300  lbs.  of  it  on  every 
machine.  The  .^substitution  of  a  baser 
metal  scrap  for  the  spelter  made  a  good 
start.      Further    savings    were    made    on 


Ihc  overhead  by  such  simple  meaii.s  as 
washing  the  windows  and  so  cuttin;^ 
down  the  light  bill;  h:iving  the  lioor 
swept  in  the  corners  and  under  thi- 
presses,  netting  an  unbelievable  heap  of 
well  chewed  tobacco  quids,  which  soKI 
for  ?15  for  fertilizer;  and  in  having  tlir 
rusted  joints  of  some  of  the  presses  th:u 
"wouldn't  work"  loosened  up  and  oiled, 
thus  increasing  the  capacity  of  the  press 
room  twenty  per  cent.— which  goes  to 
show  that  there  are  homely  ways  ol" 
making  money   without  spen<ling  it.

TOK 

By  S.  H.  I'i. 
KXl'ERIENCE  is  one  of  maij's  best  edu- 
cators but  it  is  very  often  a  hard  task- 
master. The  bulk  of  the  knowledge  that 
most  of  us  have  acquired  has  been  doled 
out  by  this  ever  existing  and  often  un- 
relenting teacher;  and  it  is  probably  well 
that  it  is  so,  as  many  of  the  lessons  thu.> 
learned  are  more  likely  to  make  a  last- 
ing impression  upon  us  than  if  the  same 
were  handed  down  to  us  as  a  hereditary 
legacy.  How  many  men  to-day  profit 
by  the  experience  of  their  elders?  The 
majority  of  us  are  like  the  child  that 
must  touch  the  fire  even  after  being  told 
that  by  doing  so  he  will  get  burnt.  Sho)) 
accidents  are  more  often  caused  by 
thoughtlessness  or  carelessness  on  the 
part  of  the  workmen  than  from  the 
faulty  condition  of  the  plant  equipment. 
The  human  element  is  the  most  per- 
verse factor  in  the  safety  problem  of 
shop  management  We  are  prone  to 
criticize  the  actions  of  those  about  us^ 
but  too  often  fail  in  a  proper  analysis 
of  our  own  accomplishments.  A  fre- 
quent cause  of  injury  to  machinery  i.-; 
the  impulsiveness  of  the  operator,  this 
trait  being  particularly  pronounced  in 
young  apprentices  and  inexperienced  me- 
chanics. The  first  duty  of  a  workman, 
when  placed  upon  a  new  machine,  is  to 
become  familiar  with  its  operating-  . 
mechanism. 

Many  machine  tools  of  to-day  are 
equipped  with  every  facility  for  maxi- 
mum efficiency,  and  at  the  same  time  re- 
lieve the  workman  of  much  of  the  physi- 
cal and  mental  effort  incidental  to  the 
manipulation  of  equipment  of  the  last 
decade.  This  does  not  mean  that  it  re- 
quires a  less  skilful  operator  to  do  effec- 
tive Work  on  a  modern  machine,  as  it  is 
probable  that  closer  attention  is  now  re- 
quired than  ever  before,  owing  to  the 
greater  possibility  of  becoming  confus- 
ed by  the  various  knobs  and  levers.  The 
semi-automatic  nature  of  present  day 
metal  working  tools  has,  however,  de- 
stroyed much  of  that  reasoning  power 
that  in  former  days  was  so  common  in 
the  average  workman.  Apprentices  and 
older  'mechanics  should  endeavor  to  cul- 
tivate the  habit  of  speedy  but  accurate 
forethought  in  the  discharge  of  their 
duties,  as  a  mental  review  of  possible 
developments  will  often  prevent  injurj- 
to  a  machine  or  an  operator. 

To  illustrate  by  an  example:  Some 
time  ago  a  young  mechanic  was  borinr 
piston  ring  castings,  which  in  the  rough 
weighed  about  80  lbs.     After  completing

the  work  on  one  of  these  he  placed  an- 
other one  in  the  chuck  without  removing 
the  boring  tool  from  the  tool-post.  In 
order  to  center  the  work — a  four  jaw 
chuck  being  used — one  of  the  jaws  was 
slackened,  leaving  the  casting  supported 
by  two  others;  turning  the  work  through 
an  angle  of  180  deg.,  and  with  the  right 
hand  placed  on  the  upper  portion  of  the 
ring  to  steady  it,  he  started  to  adjust 
the  easting  to  position.  One  of  the  side 
jaws,  however,  had  apparently  been  rest- 
ing on  a  small  lump,  so  that  the  down- 
ward pressure  from  the  top  screw  re- 
leased the  work,  causing  the  piece  to 
fall  from  the  chuck,  and  catching  the 
man  unprepared  his  hand  was  caught 
between  the  tool  and  the  work,  resulting 
in  a  badly  lacerated  finger.  A  little 
forethought  in  removing  the  tool,  or 
supporting  the  work  while  setting,  would 
likely  have  prevented  the  injury  sus- 
tained. Accidents  occur  every  day 
through  over  impulsive  action  on  the 
part  of  workmen,  which  a  moment's 
forethought  would  oftentimes  prevent.

ELECTRIC    DRIVE    FOR   WARSHIPS 

By  D.  Street. 
IT  is  confidently  expected  by  those  who 
favor  electric  transmission  for  ship  pro- 
pulsion that  the  electrically-driven 
cruisers  and  battleships  now  building  for 
the  American  Navy  will  demonstrate 
conclusively  that  the  electric  drive  is 
superior  to  all  others  for  naval  vessels 
of  this  class.  The  features  upon  which 
this  confidence  is  mainly  founded  are  the 
maintenance  of  a  high  efficiency  at  all 
speeds,  and  the  diminished  risk  of  a  ves- 
sel being  temporarily  crippled  by  a 
breakdown  in  the  engine  room. 

No  attempt  is  made  to  claim  for  elec- 
trical transmission  as  high  an  efficiency 
at  full  power  and  speed  as  can  be  ob- 
tained from  the  geared  drive.  In  the 
new  battle  cruisers  the  losses  from  tur- 
bine to  propeller  shaft  will  be  about  7 
per  cent,  at  top  speed.  It  is  conceded 
that  at  full  speed  a  geared  drive  will 
show  a  better  figure  than  this — better, 
perhaps,  by  2  per  cent. — but  a  battleship 
is  only  on  full  speed  for  a  fraction  of  its 
time,  and  the  normal  cruising  speed  re- 
quires only  about  one-tenth  of  full 
power.  It  is  here  that  the  electric  drive 
is  expected  to  show  great  advantages. 
At  light  loads  the  efficiency  of  the  geared 
turbine  equipment  falls  off  considerably 
owing  to  the  reduced  thermal  efficiency 
of  the  main  turbines  themselves,  and  to 
the  relatively  greater  drag  of  gearing, 
bearings,  reversing  tui-bines,  and  idle 
parts  of  the  main  turbines. 

Even  though  special  cruising  turbines 
are  fitted,  the  efficiency  at  cruising 
speed  must  be  low,  for  such  turbines  can- 
not have  the  efficiency  of  a  single  large 
main  turbine,  and  they  add  still  more  to 
the  drag.  With  the  electric  drive  the 
transmission  efficiency  can,  on  the  other 
hand,  be  kept  equally  good  at  all  speeds; 
the  number  of  motors  and  turbines  used 
can  be  adapted  to  the  demand  for  power, 
and  this  gives  a  very  important  gain  in 
economy  at  all  speeds  below  the  maxi- 
mum.    At  19  knots   only  one  turbine   is 


required  to  drive  the  ship,  and  it  runs  at 
full  speed  instead  of  at  half-speed  as  it 
would  in  a  geared  equipment. ,  Thus  the 
steam  efficiency  at  19  knots — a  desirable 
cruising  speed — is  equal  to  the  best  at- 
tainable at  any  speed,  and  as  cruising 
economy  gives  increased  cruising  radius 
without  renewal  of  fuel  supplies,  high 
efficiency  at  this  speed  is  a  matter  of  the 
greatest  importance. 

Breakdown  Possibilities 

In  regard  to  the  risks  of  complete 
breakdown,  it  is  pointed  out  that  in  the 
geared  equipment  each  shaft  has  a  sys- 
tem of  turbines,  gears,  bearings,  thrust- 
balancing  devices,  and  lubricating  sys- 
tems, all  mechanically  locked  together, 
and  that  with  high  speed  machinery  any 
kind  of  trouble  with  any  of  these  parts 
generally  necessitates  the  immediate 
stoppage  of  the  whole  system,  whilst  if 
a  breakdown  has  occurred  it  may  be  ne- 
cessary to  stop  the  ship  while  the  wreck- 
age is  cleared  away  and  the  shaft  un- 
coupled, after  which  the  idle  propeller 
would  still  act  as  a  very  serious  drag  on 
a  fast  vessel.  In  the  electrically-driven 
ship  there  is  no  mechanical  connection  of 
the  shaft  to  anything  but  the  rotors  of 
the  motors,  which  cannot  be  subject  to 
mechanical  interference. 

The  shafts  are  subject  to  the  same  pos- 
sibilities of  bearing  or  thrust  trouble  as 
shafts  in  other  ships,  but  the  presence  of 
the  motors  does  not  increase  this  danger, 
and  the  speed  being  low,  it  is  remote  in 
any  case.  With  this  equipment  any 
motor,  generator,  or  turbine,  if  in  any 
kind  of  trouble,  can  be  instantly  discon- 
nected without  stopping  the  ship  and 
with  only  a  small  loss  from  the  highest 
speed  capacity.  The  versatility  of 
transmission  constitutes  one  of  the  most 
important  advantages  of  electric  drive 
in  such  a  ship.  With  one  motor  out  of 
eight  in  trouble  only  one-eighth  of  the 
maximum  capacity  is  lost,  and  the  ship's 
maximum  speed  is  impaired  by  only 
about  one  knot.  If  a  generator  or  tur- 
bine is  in  trouble  the  maximum  speed  is 
reduced  only  about  two  knots.  With  two 
generating  units  and  four  motors  out, 
the  ship  can  make  26  knots,  and  with 
three  generators  and  four  motors  out  she 
can  make- 19  knots.  If  parts  give  trouble 
they  are  simply  cut  out  and  repaired  at 
leisure,  or  as  opportunity  affords. 

Self-Contained  Reverse 

A  further  point  made  is  that  the  elec- 
tric drive  dispenses  with  the  need  for 
reversing  turbines  and  eliminates  com- 
plications which  they  involve.  Import- 
ance is  also  attached  to  the  large  eaina 
in  fuel  economv  afforded  bv  super-heat, 
and  it  is  expected  that  the  demonstration 
of  the  ability  to  use  safelv  high  deo:rees 
of  suner-heat  may  constitute  one  of  the 
most  important  reasons  for  adontine  the 
electric  drive.  In  opposition  to  these 
claims  can  onlv  be  advanced  one,  that  of 
greater  weight.  This  can  be  discounted 
on  the  heavv  ships,  where  protection  is 
of  vital  importance.  On  the  liTht  fast 
vessels,  such  as  destrovers  and  scouts, 
where  no  protection  exists,  evervthin?  is 
sacrificed  for  speed,  and  for  such  vessels 


the  mechanical  reduction  gear  stands 
pre-eminent   to-day.

VELOCITY  OF  SOUND  IN  SEA- 
WATER 

By  T.  J. 

AS  is  well  known,  the  aberration  to 
which  aerial  sound  signals  are  subject 
makes  the  transmission  of  sound  through 
water  a  much  more  desirable  medium  for 
the  exchange  of  signals,  but  there  is  a 
certain  amount  of  error  always  found  in 
short  distances  from  the  shore  when  a 
ship  is  endeavoring  to  find  her  distance 
by  echo.  The  elasticity  of  the  water  is 
a  great  determining  factor,  as  the  veloc- 
ity of  sound  through  a  medium  is  equal 
to  the  square  root  of  the  quotient  found 
by  dividing  the  elasticity  of  the  medium 
by  its  density.  The  elasticity  of  sea 
water  is  2.02  by  10.10,  and  its  usual 
density  is  1.03;  and  the  computed  veloc- 
ity of  sound  through  the  ocean  is  there- 
fore 1,400  metres,  or  4,593  feet  per  sec- 
ond. Owing  to  the  uncertainty  of  locat- 
ing the  place  from  which  the  sound 
waves  are  reflected  to  form  an  echo  any 
method  of  finding  distances  in  navigation 
by  means  of  submarine  echoes  is  not  at 
ail  serviceable.  In  the  location  of  sound 
signals  every  effort  is  made  to  avoid  the 
formation  of  echoes  on  account  of  the 
uncertainty  which  their  presence  pro- 
duces  in   locating  the   submarine    signal.

U.  S.  ENGINEERS  DISCUSS  WAR 
TOPICS 

WAR  topics  predominated  at  the  conven- 
tion of  the  American  Society  of  Mechan- 
ical Engineers,  recently  held  at  the  Engi- 
neering Societies  Building,  29  West  39th 
Street,  New  York,  the  engineers  discuss- 
ing the  shipbuilding  problem,  the  air- 
craft problem,  the  fuel  problem,  the  agri- 
cultural problem,  etc. 

Methods  were  considered  whereby  the 
problem  of  fuel  conservation  will  be  met 
either  by  compelling  coal  consumers  to 
execute  such  measures  of  economy  as  the 
authorities  prescribe,  or  else  by  dissem- 
inating correct  information  regarding 
the  mining  and  consumption,  of  coal,  ac- 
companied by  an  appeal  to  the  patriot- 
ism  of  the   consumers. 

Such  subjects  as  expenses  and  costs, 
accident  prevention,  labor  turnover  ex- 
pense, and  the  relation  of  industrial 
management  to  engineering,  were  dis- 
cussed. Dr.  John  A.  Brashear,  past- 
president  of  the  society  and  widely 
known  in  connection  with  the  develop- 
ment of  the  modern  telescope,  addressed 
the  members  and  their  guests,  taking  for 
his  subiect  "The  Science  of  the  Beauti- 
ful in  Commonplace  Things." 

Honorary  member.=:hip  in  the  Ameri- 
can Society  of  Mechanical  Engineers  was 
conferred  "  upon  Major-General  George 
W.  Goethals  in  recognition  of  his 
achievements  in  engineering,  and  Ex- 
President  Taft  gave  an  address  on  "The 
War's  Call  to  Professional  Men."  These 
functions,  which  were  held  in  the  im- 
i:ressive  auditorium  of  the  engineers' 
building,  were  followed  by  a  reception 
to  the  new  president  of  the  society,  Mr. 
Charles  T.  Main.

hammer  which  posses.^es  all  the  ile.sirable 
fe«tur«>s  of  power  hammers  in  addition 
to  WinK  independent  of  shaftinp  and 
belts. 

The  weiirht  of  the  complete  hammer 
is  1,200  lbs.  and  it  is  expre.-i.'jiy  suited  for 
handling  all  sorts  of  lipht  miscellaneous 
tool  dressinp.  forKinyr.  weldinp,  straiirht- 
eninjt.  blacksmitliinjr.  etc.,  ordinarily 
done  by  hand,  thus  avoiding  the  un-

and  providinir  a  hammer  readily  movable 
to  the  work  in  shipyard,  shop,  mine, 
quarry  or  contract  work. 

The    main    frame   consists   of  a  heavy 


PNEUMATIC    LIGHT    FORGING    H.\MME1R. 

anvil  portion  cast  solid,  and  having  a 
rigid  integral  box  housing  supporting 
the  working  parts.  Cylinder  is  bored 
and  reamed  and  has  a  key  across  the 
entire  face  of  frame  in  addition  to  four 
bolts.  Ports  are  large  and  direct  and 
main  valve  is  quickly  accessible  through 
cover  plate  on  valve  chest.  Main 
stuffing  box  gland  is  of  ample  length,  is 


liu.-^licd   with   bronze  and   made   in  halves 
for  easy  removal. 

Heat  treated  vanadium  alloy  steel  is 
used  for  tlie  one-piece  piston  and  rod; 
llie  ram  head  and 
guide  shoe  are  made 
of  a  single  open- 
hearth  forging,  and 
have  a  long  Uiper  lit 
on  the  rod.  Van- 
adium alloy  steel  is 
used  for  the  valve 
gear  pin  inside  of 
ram.  Liberal  wear- 
ing surface  is  pro 
vided  on  the  guides 
which  extend  down 
as  far  as  practicable. 
Dies  are  of  the  plain 
forging  type  of  spe- 
cial tool  steel  suit- 
ably tempered.  The 
upper  die  is  dovetail- 
ed and  keyed  to  ram, 
while  lower  die  is 
dowelled  to  anvil. 

Operation  is  con- 
trolled by  pressure 
on  the  foot  lever,  the 
speed  depending  on 
the  air  pressure  and 
thickness  of  stock — 
from  1.50  to  200  blows 
per  min.  The  hitcher 
speed  automatically 
occurs  on  thicker 
sizes  of  the  hammer's 
range  which  is  from  1/16  in.  to  2  in.  in- 
clusive. No  ad.iustment  is  required  in 
striking  and  reversing  on  any  thickness 
within  the  above  capacity,  speed  and 
force  being  controlled  directly  by  amount 
foot  lever  is  depressed.  Hot  iron  2  in. 
square  is  readily  worked. 

The  hammer  occupies  a  floor  space  14 
in.  by  24  in.;  is  66  in.  high;  dies  2%  in. 
by  4Vo  in.;  requires  30  cu.  ft.  free  air  per 
min.  at  90  lb.  pressure  per  sq.  in.  for 
steady  operation  at  full  speed.

UNIVERSAL  CUTTER  AND  TOOL 
GRINDER 

A  UNIVERSAL  cutter  and  tool  grinder 
of  modern  design  and  adapted  for  a  very 
wide  range  of  tool  room  work  is  built 
by  Wilmarth  &  Mormon  Co.,  Grand 
Rapids,  Mich.  Their  No.  1  Universal 
grinder  is  shown  in  the  accompanying 
engraving,  and  has  eight  speed  changes 
for  table  travel  graduated  from  12  in. 
to  7.5  in.  per  min. 

The  travel  and  reversing  mechanism 
is  contained  in  a  gear  box  at  the  left 
of  the  saddle  and  somewhat  to  the  rear. 
It  is  a  complete  unit  in  itself  and  is  so 
arranged  that  it  can  be  attached  to  the 
hand  feed  machines  of  this  type  already 


in  service  with  very  little  work.  It  is 
driven  by  the  two  step  cone  pulley  at  the 
extromc  left,  four  speeds  being  obtain- 
ed on  each  step. 


UNIVERSAL   CUTTER    AND   TOOL    GRINDER. 


The  gearing  from  the  box  to  the  table 
is  arranged  so  that  it  can  be  entirely 
disengaged  leaving  the  table  free  for 
operation  by  the  handw-heel  at  the  front 
of  the  saddle  or  the  lever  at  the  rear 
without  operating  any  of  the  power 
feed  mechanism  which  drives  the   table. 

The  front  of  the  table  is  provided  with 
a  tee-slot  which  carries  adjustable  dogs 
for  operating  the  reversing  mechanism 
at  the  desired  points  on  the  work,  allow- 
ing the  operator  to  shorten  or  lengthen 
the  stroke  as  desired. 

All  of  the  mechanism  is  entirely  self 
contained  with  none  of  the  working  parts 
exposed  to  grindings  or  dirt,  and  all  of 
the  gears  are  run  in  a  bath  of  oil  to  in- 
sure  long  wear. 


AMPLE  STEEL   SUPPLIES  FOR  THE 
WAR 

AMPLE  supplies  of  steel  for  all  the  Gov- 
ernment's war  needs  were  assured  to 
the  War  Industries  Board  by  repre- 
sentatives of  the  largest  steel  mills  in 
the  United  States.  They  proposed,  how- 
ever, a  different  system  of  allocating  or- 
ders to  take  into  consideration  idle 
capacity,  the  fuel  supply  and  transporta- 
tion conditions.  In  line  with  this  sug- 
gestion, hereafter  placing  of  order?  will

be  centralized  in  the  hands  of  J.  L.  Rep- 
lo.ijle,  the  board's  steel  expert,  and  it  u 
believed  that  deliveries  will  be  expendit- 
ed.  Ways  and  means  of  expediting-  prD- 
nuction  of  the  war  instruments  whicn 
are  to  bring  victory  in  the  war  occapied 
the  attention  of  the  conference  aimoft 
exclusively  during  the  two  hours  the 
meeting  was  in  progress.  Whether  tHe 
filling  of  war  orders  would  leave  suffi- 
cient steel  for  private  industries  was  de- 
clared to  be  "another  question,"  which 
none  of  those  present  would  answer  de- 
finitely.

CANADIAN   RAILWAY  CLUB   HELPS 
HALIFAX 

THE  Canadian  Railway  Club  meeting  at 
.Montreal  last  week  decided  to  forego 
their  annual  dinner  this  year,  owing  to 
the  general  conditions  that  prevail  at 
the  present  time.  In  view  of  the  fact 
that  the  war  is  still  at  its  height  and 
the  recent  devastation  at  Halifax,  it  was 
thought  advisable  to  postpone  the  event. 
By  a  unanimous  vote  a  grant  of  $200 
was  passed  for  the  relief  committee  of 
the  stricken  city,  the  money  being  wired 
while  the  club  was  in  session.

DOCTORS  ARE  REALLY  ENGINEERS 

COL.  W.  O.  OWENS,  in  charge  of  the 
Motion  Picture  Department  of  the  Am- 
erican Medical  Museum  in  Washington, 
under  the  direction  of  General  Goorgas, 
declared  at  the  recent  convention  of  the 
American  Society  of  Mechanical  Engi- 
eers  that  he  had  come  to  look  upon  doe- 
tors  and  medical  men  as  biological  engi- 
neers, inasmuch  as  their  chief  business 
was  to  keep  the  human  engine  in  perfect 
v.'orking  order.  His  statement  was  em- 
phasized by  Major  Frank  D.  Gilbreth  of 
the  Engineers  Officers'  Reserve  Corps, 
who  described  how  the  soldiers  crippled 
in  the  war  are  provided  with  means  for 
performing  useful  industrial  work  and 
making  themselves  self-supporting.  In 
the  course  of  the  discussion  on  the  crip- 
pled workers,  illustrations  were  shown 
of  men  putting  on  their  trouSers  with 
blacksmiths'  tongs,  one-armed  men  driv- 
ing nails  with  magnetic  hammers  quicker 
than  two-armed  men  could  with  ordinary 
hammers.  Major  Gilbreth  urged  the  uni- 
versal employment  of  cripples  in  work 
which  they  could  perform  and  said  it 
would  be  socially  indecent  for  employers 
lo  give  a  job  to  a  normal  person  when  a 
cripple  could  just  as  well  do  it.  He  told 
how  efficient  cripples  were  in  industrial 
plants.

WELDING     WORK     DISCUSSED     BY 

RAILWAY  MEN 
.\T  the  last  regular  meeting  of  the  Can- 
adian Railway  Club  a  paper  was  I'ead  on 
"Oxy-Acetylene  and  Electric  Welding  in 
Locomotive  Work"  and  the  discussion 
that  followed  proved  to  be  the  most  in- 
teresting and  instructive  that  the  mem- 
bers have  so  far  experienced.  The  cen- 
ter of  the  discussion  hinged  on  the  ad- 
vantages and  disadvantages  of  the  lap 
and  butt  weld  as  applied  to  construction 
and  repair  of  fire-boxes  and  flue  sheets. 
While  no  definite  conclusion  was  arriv- 
ed at  considerable  data  and  information 


were  brought  fonvard  that  .will  be  of 
value  for  future  operation  of  this  class 
of  welding.

SOUTHERN  CANADA  POWER  CO. 
DEVELOPMENTS 

THE  map  accompanying  the  annual  re- 
port of  Southern  Canada  Power  Co.  re- 
cently issued  shows  that  the  company's 
operations  cover  an  exceptionally  wide 
range  of  territory,  doubtless  the  largest 
east  of  the  Niagara  power  zone.  On  the 
south  power  is  carried  across  the  inter- 
national boundary  into  Derby,  Vermont. 
On  the  west  the  transmission  lines  ap- 
proach as  near  to  Montreal  as  St.  Johns, 
Iberville,  St.  Hilaire  and  Beloeil.  On 
the  north  Drummondville  and  adjacent 
municipalities  are  tapped,  while  on  the 
east  the  principal  points  of  consumption 
are  Sherbrooke,  Lennoxville,  Richmond 
and  Compton.  These  distances  are  ap- 
proximately 70  to  75  miles  east  and  west, 
north  and  south. 

It  is  quietly  but  gradually  developing 
into  an  important  development,  and  is 
extending  a  network  of  power  wires 
throughout  the  south-eastern  section  of 
the  Province  of  Quebec,  and  working  up 
the  available  hydro-electric  propositions 
in  that  area. 

The  report  states: 

"Considerable  progress  has  been  made 
during  the  year  in  the  consolidation  of 
the  subsidiaries  acquired,  as  referred  to 
in  the  last  report.  Since  then  the  com- 
pany has  purchased  the  municipal  plants 
of  the  City  of  Granby  and  the  Town  of 
Bromptonville,  and  is  now  engaged  in 
the  joining  up  of  its  various  isolated 
properties. 

"The  company  at  present  has  under 
construction  about  eight-five  miles  of 
transmission  lines  from  Sherbrooke  to 
Granby  and  Cowansville,  from  Sher- 
brooke to  Bromptonville,  and  from  St. 
Cyrille  to  St.  Germain  through  Drum- 
mondville, with  the  necessary  sub-sta- 
tions and  distribution  systems. 

"The  power  development  at  Rich- 
mond, Drummondville,  Foster  and  Gran- 
by are  being  considerably  improved  and 
enlarged  and  put  into  shape  for  the  most 
economical  operation,  through  the  trans- 
mission lines,  with  the  other  plants  of 
the   company. 

"A  great  deal  of  work  has  been  done 
in  connection  with  the  engineering  in- 
vestigation of  the  company's  water 
powers,  and  additional  rioarian  and 
other  riehts  have  been  acquired,  so  that 
tjraetically  all  such  work  usually  pre- 
liminarv  to  such  developments  is  nov\ 
completed."

The  boy  came  into  the  house  weeping

"Dear  me!"  cried  a  nervous-looking  in-

in   here." 

Up  jumped  another  gentleman  with  a 
gold  watch  chain  and  white  waistcoat. 

"I  must  get  out  at  once,"  he  said.  "I 
have  just  taken  some  money  out  of  the 
bank  and  I  won't  chance  being  robbed." 

The  policeman  nudged  the  conductor. 

"It's  all  right  now,  drive  on;  they've 
both  got  out." 

The  dominie  was  told  by  his  family 
doctor  that  a  glass  of  toddy  would  do 
him  no  harm.  "I  canna  mana.ge  it,"  said 
the  minister,  "my  housekeeper  wad  gos-

"Oh,  keep  it  in  your  private  cupboard, 
and  when  you  get  your  shaving  water  in 
the  morning,  get  a  little  extra  supply." 

A  month  later  one  of  the  female  par- 
ishioners who  was  calling  on  the  house- 
keeper enquired  as  to  the  dominie's 
health. 

"I'm  sair  afraid  the  meenister  is  los-

"My  goodness,  how  is  that?"  said  the 
visitor. 

"Weel,  he  asks  for  shaving  water  five 
or  sax  times  a  day." 


A  good  story  is  being  told  concerning

It  appears  that  he  was  once  cross- 
examining  a  witness  in  an  agrarian  case 
in  Ireland,  and  the  man,  describing  how 
a  tenant  was  evicted  from  his  holdings 
by  the  bailiffs,  remarked  that  the  beam 
used  to  break  down  the  door  of  the  cabin 
was   shaped   like   a  battering-ram. 

Sir  Francis  saw  an  opening — or  he 
thought  so,  at  all  events. 

"Have  you  ever  seen  a  battering- 
ram?"  he  asked. 

"I  have,"  replied   the  witness  stolidly. 

"Where?"  snapped  Sir  Francis. 

"In  London." 

"Whereabouts  in  London?"  persistet. 
Sir  Francis,  with  a  smile  of  incredulity. 

"In  the  South  Kensington  Museum."

TKAIMNO.  BRAINS  FOR  AFTER-WAR  TRADE. 

WAR  is  still  with  us,  and  may  be  for  a  while.  With 
the  echo  of  the  first  shot  in  the  war  there  awoke  in 
progressive  business  minds  the  thought  of  trade 
after  the  war.  Not  "Business  as  Usual"  but  "Business  far 
Better  than  Before"  is  the  slogan  to  follow.  Leaders  in 
business  life  are  busy  upon  after-the-war  problems  to-day. 
Already  the  key-word  to  their  thoughts  is  out. 

That  word  is  Education.  Its  effect  is  found  in  the  de- 
cision of  the  Tootal  Broadhurst  Lee  Co.,  Manchester,  to 
appropriate  $50,000  a  year  for  five  years  for  research  to 
improve  their  products,  and  for  education  to  improve  the 
general  efliciency  of  their  employees.  "Without  improved 
education,  and  a  closer  link  between  science  and  industry, 
our  future  trade  cannot  expand  as  it  should,"  says  the 
Chairman  of  their  Board  of  Directors.  "In  this  respect  we 
are  behind  some  other  countries." 

So  part  time  instruction  in  a  works  school  during  work- 
ing hours  is  provided  for,  and  employees  who  show  out- 
standing ability  are  to  be  selected  for  further  education. 
In  special  cases  they  may  have  whole  time  education  and 
a  university  course  to  develop  them.  The  purpose  of  the 
appropriation  is  to  produce  more  specialized  expert  help 
for  the  company.  Part  of  the  fund  is  to  be  spent  in  re- 
search work  by  already  available  experts.  The  educational 
policy  pursued  is  to  bring  out  more  experts. 

The  race  for  trade  after  the  war  will  be  closely  con- 
tested. The  countries  best  prepared  by  the  education  of 
the  industrial  and  business  brains  that  are  to  run  their 
commercial  concerns  will  come  out  winners.  Financial  as 
■well  as  industrial  training  is  demanded.  Sir  Richard 
Vassar  Smith,  in  a  recent  address  before  the  Institute  of 
Bankers  in  London,  said  that  recent  developments  of  inter- 


iiatioiial  banking  meant  a  demand  for  young  nion  with  ;v 
knowledge  of  foreign  languages,  foreign  exchange,  and 
the  i-ommorcial  and  financial  conditions  of  other  countries. 
Clearly  a  call  for  still  further  specialized  education  for 
the  ruoM  who  are  to  make  a  winner  of  tiMilc  sifter  the  war. 


W  II A  I    II  ATM  THE  YEAR  UROIKIHT  US? 

TIIK  api'ioailiing  dose  of  the  year  bids  many  of  us 
glance  backward  and  in  silent  retrospect  consider 
whence  wc  have  come  and  wliitluT  do  we  go.  Each 
year  has  seen  the  prediction  that  the  war  would  soon  be 
over,  and  each  year  still  sees  it  with  us,  inlluencing  our 
thoughts,  words  and  deeds  to  such  an  extent  that,  when  it 
does  reach  a  conclusion,  the  void  left  by  the  disappearance 
of  such  a  mainspring  of  industrial  activity  will  be  imme- 
diately unfathomable. 

Military  events  have  influenced  activities  of  the  past 
year  very  greatly,  for  instance,  the  alternate  depression 
and  cheerfulness  which  have  marked  the  fluctuations  in 
nninitions  manufacture.  That  such  happenings  should  take 
place  is  incidental  to  the  nature  of  their  origin,  but  that 
their  etfeet  on  our  private  and  national  disposition  should 
pass  unnoticed  is  not  right.  It  must  be  constantly  kept 
in  mind  that  the  readjustments  necessary  during  the  tran- 
sition period  will  have  a  much  more  acute  influence  on 
our  individual  lives  than  any  temporary  depression  has 
had  hitherto. 

Viewing  the  turnings  and  twistings  of  Fortune's  ship, 
and  admitting  however  unwillingly  that  results  are  not 
what  seemed  likely  to  materialize  at  certain  periods,  we 
must  take  such  comfort  as  we  can  from  the  saying  that 
"things  arc  never  so  bad  but  what  they  might  be  worse." 
There  is  a  mean  level  to  which  all  influences  gravitate, 
some  upward  and  some  downward.  Mankind  is  not  gifted 
with  such  powers  of  intuition  that  basic  principles  can  be 
ignored,  and  of  these  the  law  of  action  and  reaction  is  not 
the  least  important. 

As  a  nation,  Canadians  in  Canada  have  suffered  less 
than  any  other.  That  we  can  expect  to  see  the  business 
through  and  remain  on  Easy  Street  while  the  rest  of  the 
world  is  struggling  in  by-ways  and  vacant  lots  is  abso- 
lutely foolish.  Knowledge  to  plan,  ability  to  execute  and 
determination  to  support  our  share  of  the  world's  burden, 
willingly  as  well  as  uncomplainingly,  are  the  essentials 
for  our  future  guidance.  It  is  a  pleasing  feature  of  the 
situation  that  financial  interests  realize  the  extent  to  which 
they  will  be  strained  in  the  period  of  readjustment — their 
ability  to  withstand  it  will  determine  more  than  anything 
else  its  duration  and  intensity. 

The  time  for  preparation  is  here — preparation  for  any 
eventuality,  and  the  tentative  evidences  during  the  past 
year  of  all  that  readjustment  will  imply  must  receive  more 
than  ordinary  consideration  from  those  directly  concerned 
with  the  industrial  future  of  the  country.  If  the  year  has 
done  nothing  else  than  bring  to  us  all  a  sterner  realiza- 
tion of  the  present  and  determination  to  face  the  future, 
it  has  not  been  unavailing.

Market  Condition  and  Tendency 

Trading  Easier  ]\'itli  Approach  of  Christmas — Steel  for  Priraft 
Work  Scarce — Wa.thinyton  Price  Revisions  Aivaited — Coke  Shorl- 
af/e  Continues.  .  ^ 

BUSINESS  generally  tlii.-;  week  ha.s  been  upsel  on  aecduul  nf 
the  elections  but  in  other  respects  there  is  practically  no 
change  in  the  situation.  Trading  will  likely  be  cpiiet  for 
the  remainder  of  the  year  as  the  Christmas  holidays  intervene. 
Merchants  report  quiet  times  in  the  iron  and  steel  trade  owing  to 
the  difficulty  being  experienced  in  obtaining  supplies  of  steel  for 
ordinary  purposes  which  Ls  re.stricting  manufacturing  operatiiuH. 
Consumers  not  engaged  upon  war  orders  are  thus  in  an  extremely 
ilifficult  position,  and  the  demand  from  such  sources  has  fallen  oft. 
It  is  not  very  difficult  to  obtain  steel  for  war  work,  but  a  consider- 
able part  of  this  is  direct  mill  businea?  and  special  arrangements 
oxist  for  facilitating  the  procuring  of  supplies.  Prices  of  steel  pro- 
ducts continue  firm  except  for  lighter  gauges  of  black  sheets  which 
are  easier:  a  slight  decline  in  steel  plates  is  expected  in  the  near 
future.  No  announcement';  have  been  made  following  an  import- 
ant meeting  in  Washington  to  discuss  the  revision  of  prices  on  steel 
products.  It  is.  however,  'believed  that  no  change  will  be  made 
from  the  prevailing  .schedule.  The  shortage  of  coke  continues  to 
restrict  the  production  of  pig-iron  and  the  situation  in  the  States 
is  getting  more  acute.  Furnaces  in  thi.s  district  are  also  feeling  the 
effects  of  the  coke  shortage.  The  non-ferrous  metal  markets  are 
quiet,  interest  being  centered  on  developments  at  Washington 
where  an  announcement  is  expected  sluirtly  concerning  fixed  prices 
■n  copper,  lead  and  spelter. 


MONTREAL,  Que.,  Dec.  17,  1917.— 
Industrial  activity  continues  un- 
abated, althougli  general  busi- 
ness has  been  somewhat  disorganized  by 
the  unusual  interest  being  taken  in  the 
Federal  House  elections.  The  recent 
heavy  snow  and  cold  weather  has  added 
another  to  the  difficulties  under  which 
manufacturers  labor  at  the  present  time, 
as  it  has  been  almost  impossible  under 
certain  conditions  to  secure  delivery  on 
much  needed  material.  The  recent 
calamity  at  Halifax  resulted  in  the 
destruction  of  a  large  number  of  cars,  a 
feature  that  has  added  to  the  acute  con- 
dition of  car  .shortage.  Embargoes  on 
exports  from  the  States  makes  it  in- 
creasingly difficult  for  manufacturers  to 
obtain  material  and  supplies  from  Am- 
erican centers. 

Pig  Iron 
The  situation  in  pig  iron  is  unchanged 
although  producers  have  been  working 
under  difficulties  during  the  past  week 
owing  to  inability  to  obtain  raw  mater- 
ials, the  recent  storms  and  continued  cold 
weather  creating  a  serious  factor  for 
the  furnaces.  The  situation,  however, 
has  shown  a  little  improvement  during 
the  past  few  days  but  the  shortage  of 
iron  is  still  more  or  less  pronounced.  In 
some  quarters  expectancy  is  shown  that 
some  revision  will  be  made  on  the  prices 
now  ruling  in  the  States.

to  alter  the  general  tone  of  the  steel  sit- 
uation.     No    ilettnite    nnnouncoment    has 
appurcntly  bt-on  jiivon  out  ivK'iiniini;  the 
tk-cision     arriveil   at    during;     Uio     rcct-nt 
meotint;  bet\vot>n  the  Govi'rnmont  otllcials 
and    the   steel    proilucors   antt    mnnufat-- 
turers.     While   tliere  is  some   possibility 
that  prices  may  be  renjjustod  in  tlie  near 
future,  it  is  nut  likely  that  this  will  take 
place  until  well  into  the  New  Year,  ami 
even  then  it  is  not  anticipated  that  such 
revisions  will  materially  effect  the  pr»>s- 
ent    condition   of   the    market,    although 
some  steps  may  be  taken  to  relieve  the 
pressure  that  is  felt  in  certain  directions. 
The   recent    trend   of  events,   however, 
has  not  been  such  as  to  remove  the  un- 
certainty that  has  characterized  the  sit- 
uation for  several  weeks  so  that  all  buy- 
in>t   is   accomplished    in   a   more   or    less 
cautious  manner.     This  attitude  is  more 
pronounced  in  those  steel  products  that 
are  not  in  jrreat  demand  for  Government 
purposes.     In  addition  ^o  the  increasing 
requirements    for    war    necessities,    tlie 
weather  conditions  durinp  the  past  week 
or  so  have  greatly  hampered  the  trans- 
portation of  all   classes   of  materials  so 
that  production  has  suffered  in  many  res- 
pects;   this   at    a    time    when   the   recent 
closing  of  inland  navigation  has   placed 
additional   pressure   on   the  various   rail- 
roads. 

Conditions  are  becoming  so  acute  that 
unless  consumers  are  working  on   Gov- 
ernment  contracts    it    is    practically   im- 
possible  to    obtain    steel    and    this    tend- 
ency is  daily  becoming  more  pronounced. 
The    freight   congestion    in    the    Eastern 
States   has   necessitated   placing   an   em- 
bargo on  all  export  material  other  than 
that    specified   for   war  purposes.        The 
open   market   on   billets   and    sheet   bars 
is  now  virtually  a  thing  of  the  past  as 
protlucers    are    conserving    their    entire 
output     for     Government     requirements. 
This  condition  also  applies  to  structural 
material  and  domestic  users  of  this  class 
of  steel  have  had  to  suspend  operations 
until  relief  is  assured.     The  urgent  need 
for  more,  cars   and  the   stupendous  pro- 
gram of  shipbuilding  is  taxing  the  plate 
mills   to   their   fullest   capacity   and   this 
situation  is  likely  to  become  worse  before 
it  is  better.  The  same  applies  to  almost 
every   other   line    of   steel    product   and 
Canadian  conditions  are  reflected  in  those 
prevailing   in    the    States.      It   has   been 
reported    that    some    difficulty    is    being 
experienced    by   those    of    our   manufac- 
turers who  have  secured  American  shell 
contracts,  in  obtaining  the  reauired  steel 
from   the   States   owing  to  the   deferred 
action  of  the  authorities  at  Washington. 
The  Canadian  situation  on  the  whole  is 
unchanged    and    is    likely   to    remain    so 
until  the  turn  of  the  New  Year,  as  the 
elections   here    and    the    coming   holiday 
season  will  have  the  result  of  disorgan- 
izing business  to  some  extent.  The  heavy 
snow    and    cold    of    the    past    week    has 
materially  affected  transnortation  facili- 
ties and  manufacturers  have  suffered  in 
consequence.       Dealers     report     a     very 
strong  market  with  all  price  quotations

Metals 
The    general    situation    in    the    metal 


market  is  unchanged  with  tin  still  hold- 
ing the  center  of  interest.  Conditions  in 
the  Stales  aiv  still  hijiging  on  the  pend- 
ing price  fixing  on  some  of  the  metals, 
ilelinite  action  on  which  is  expocU-d  at 
any  time.  The  coming  holiday  season, 
however,  has  interfered  with  the  pro- 
gress of  the  work  and  the  New  Year 
may  arrive  before  an  anouncenienl  is 
made.  Copper  is  quiet,  no  early  possibil- 
ity of  price  revision  iKMng  apparent.  Tin 
is  very  strong  but  the  acute  condition  of 
the  past  few  weeks  is  less  pronounced. 
Spelter  is  active  under  Government 
orders  hut  the  open  market  is  very  quiet. 
Lead  is  quiet  but  firm.  Antimony  is 
again  weak  and  aluminum  is  in  less  de- 
mand. 

Copper. — Steps  have  been  taken  dur- 
ing tlie  past  week  towards  coming  to  an 
understanding  as  to  the  price  that  will 
govern  the  sale  of  copper  during  the 
coming  year  or  at  least  for  such  a  period 
as  may  be  agreed  upon  by  producers  and 
the  Government.  The  announcement  that 
some  of  the  smaller  producers  find  it 
very  difficult  to  operate  at  a  profit  under 
the  prices  now  ruling  might  indicate 
that  any  change  would  be  in  an  upward 
direction.  However,  nothing  definite  has 
vet  been  done  and  it  is  still  problemati-

cal  just  what  conditions  will  prevail  dur- 
ing the  months  of  the  coming  year.  Re- 
adjustments will  probably  depend  upon 
developments,  their  nature  at  the  pres- 
ent time  being  very  uncertain.  Local 
activity  is  light  but  prices  are  well 
maintained,  dealers  here  are  quoting  33 
cents  for  lake  and  electro,  and  32  cents 
for  castings. 

Tin. — The  market  in  tin  continues  to 
be  the  feature  of  the  metal  situation, 
and  although  the  most  recent  reports 
point  to  a  relief  of  the  existing  acute 
conditions,  there  is  still  a  pronounced 
shortage  of  tin  both  here  and  in  the 
States.  While  nothing  has  been  made 
public  as  to  the  progress  made  by  the 
American  Govemment  towards  obtain- 
ing better  shipments  of  tin  from  Eng- 
land or  other  points  under  the  control 
of  the  British  Government,  consumers 
are  beginning  to  feel  the  pinch  as  the 
available  supply  of  spot  tin  is  becoming 
noticeably  less.  Some  consumers  who 
were  fortunate  enough  to  have  covered 
their  requirements  have  been  induced  to 
dispose  of  small  quantities  of  metal  to 
other   users     to    meet     their    immediate 


needs.  Early  prospects,  however,  seem  to 
be  towards  an  easier  situation,  but  this 
can  only  be  shown  by  future  develop- 
ments. The  latest  reports  show  a  prac- 
tical suspension  of  business  on  the  New 
York  market,  with  the  latest  ((uolation 
at  the  nominal  figure  of  80  cents  per  lb. 
Dealers  here  report  active  market  with 
prices  very  firm,  the  current  (juotalion 
being  78  cents  per  lb. 

.Speller. — The  gonerni  demand  for 
spelter  has  shown  no  tendency  to  in- 
crease although  the  buying  by  galvan- 
izers  for  Government  sheet  contracts 
has  been  recently  quite  heavy,  manufac- 
turers not  being  inclined  to  take  any 
chance  on  the  market  for  a  lower  price, 
rather  showing  a  tendency  to  amply 
cover  their  requirements  at  present 
prices.  The  attitude  of  the  American 
Government  in  connection  with  the  fix- 
ing of  spelter  prices  appears  to  be  very 
uncertain  and  it  is  expected  that  this 
factor  will  be  left  for  trade  conditions 
to  automatically  adjust  as  the  demand 
becomes  more  on  a  par  with  production. 
The  New  York  quotation  .shows  a  weaker 
tendency,  the  quotation  of  7%  cents  be- 
ing a  decline  of  hi  cent  on  the  week. 
Prices  here  are  unchanged  at  10%  cents 
per  lb. 

Lead. — The  situation  in  lead  has  shown 
no  tendency  to  develop  special  features 
and  the  market  is  at  present  unsettled 
owing  to  the  uncertainty  that  prevails 
regarding  the  contemplated  action  of  the 
American  Government  in  the  setting  of 
price  to  regulate  the  sale  of  metal. 
While  this  was  expected  to  have  been 
announced  before  this  it  is  not  likely 
that  definite  action  will  he  taken  unti. 
after  the  holidays.  Reports  of  pending 
business  of  considerable  volume  have  giv- 
en a  stronger  tone  to  the  general  situa- 
tion. Lead  is  quoted  at  OVsc  but  with 
a  weaker  tendency. 

Antimony.— Reaction  has  followed  the 
recent  slight  activity  in  the  antimony 
market  and  quotations  have  again  declin- 
ed; New  York  is  quoting  15  cents,  a  de- 
cline of  V2  cent  over  that  quoted  last 
week.  The  local  quotation  is  firm  and 
unchanged  at  18  cents  per  lb.;  the  de- 
mand being  fair.  ^  .■  „ 
Muminum.— The  market  is  not  active 
and  the  demand  is  light,  prices  are  un- 
changed but  with  an  easier  undertone. 
Dealers  here  are  asking  60  cents  per  lb., 
but  the  market  is  weak  with  a  lower 
undertone. 

Machine  Tools  and  Supplies 
The  machine  tool  industry  is  at  pres- 
ent regulated  by  the  requirements  of  the 
government,  particularly  in  connection 
with  the  business  in  the  States,  a  factor 
that  to  a  large  extent,  may  be  sa.d  to 
prevail  also  in  Canada,  as  manufacturers 
here  are  dependent  to  a  large  degree  on 
the  American  market  for  their  supplies 
n  machine  shop  equipment.  The  restric- 
tions that  have  been  placed  on  the  export 
of  machinery  from  the  States  have,  how- 
ever given  increased  impetus  to  tool 
builders  here  in  Canada,  as  shown  m  the 
srreater  activity  in  certam  lines.  While 
the  week  has  been  fairly  quiet,  the  volume 
of  sales  has  been   sufficient  to  maintain-

an  interest  in  tiie  market.  Political  ac- 
tivity lias  somewhat  disturbed  the  regu- 
lar progress  of  events  and  it  is  not 
anticipaied  that  any  great  business  will 
be  in  evidence  until  the  country  has  be- 
come settled  and  the  holiday  season  is 
over.  It  is  known  that  several  industrial 
developments  have  been  suspended  until 
the  election  returns  are  announced.  A 
return  to  normal  conditions  may  follow 
the  holiday  season  and  in  anticipation, 
many  dealers  are  looking  optimistically 
forward  to  it.  Business  in  small  sup- 
plies has  shown  a  little  falling  off  and 
this  is  accounted  for  by  the  disturbed 
condition  of  the  country  at  the  present 
time.  No  weakening  tendency  has  de- 
veloped in  the  prices  quoted  on  small 
supplies  and  quotations  are  generally 
very  firm. 

Scrap 
The  market  is  generally  quiet  with  an 
unsettled  tendency  owing  to  the  nervous 
situation  that  prevails  in  the  States.  It 
is  expected  that  some  action  will  be  tak- 
en early  in  the  New  Year  towards  the 
regulation  of  prices  controlling  the  sale 
and  distribution  of  old  materials,  a  fac- 
tor that  will  tend  to  put  this  market  in 
a  more  stable  relation  to  that  of  other 
markets.  The  local  situation  has  shown 
an  inclination  to  weaken  on  metal  scrap 
but  steel  and  iron  scrap  is  firm  with 
stronger  quotations  on  steel  axles  and 
machine  shop  turnings.  Scrap  brass  has 
declined  one  cent  during  the  wee'k;  heavy 
quoted  at  15  cents  and  light  brass  at  10 
cents  per  lb.  Heavy  lead  is  now  5% 
cents,  a  drop  of  V2  cent  per  lb.  Alumi- 
num is  weaker,  the  quotation  of  25 
cents  representing  a  decline  on  the 
week  of  3  cents  per  lb.  Scrap  zinc  has 
"become  a  litle  stronger,  an  advance  of 
%  cent  raising  the  price  asked  to  SVa 
•cents  per  lb.  Steel  axles  are  in  good 
demand  and  quotations  have  advanced, 
although  the  ruling  prices  are  on  the 
sliding  scale;  a  nominal  quotation  being 
$.S8  per  ton.  Machine  shop  turnings 
show  an  advance  of  50  cents  per  ton, 
the  current  quotation  being  $9  per  ton. 


signs  of  improvement,  and  the  outlook  is 
not  by  any  means  satisfactory.  Little 
difficulty  is  being  experienced  in  obtain- 
ing steel  for  war  purposes,  but  for  or- 
dinary manufacturing  requirements  con- 
sumers are  not  able  to  obtain  material  in 
sufficient  quantities  to  satisfy  their 
needs.  The  result  is  that  business  is  dull, 
particularly  for  merchants. 

Comparatively  dull  conditions  will 
likely  prevail  for  the  balance  of  this 
year,  and  probably  for  the  greater  part 
of  the  first  quarter  of  1918.  This  ap- 
plies to  purely  domestic  business,  and 
not  to  that  section  of  the  trade  engaged 
upon  war  orders.  Special  arrangements 
exist  for  facilitating  the  production  of 
war  equipment  and  for  obtaining  all  ne- 
cessary materials  for  this  purpose,  but 
this  is  not  the  case  for  noi-mal  manufac- 
turing activities.  War  requirements 
take  precedence  over  all  other  work, 
which  means  that  consumers  not  engag';d 
upon  war  orders  will  have  to  be  content 
to  take  what  they  can  get.  The  niiils 
are    exceptionally    busy     now,    but     war 


Toronto 

TOEONTO,  Ont,  Dec.  18.— Interest 
this  week  has  centred  almost  entirely  in 
the  General  Election,  with  the  usual  ef- 
fect on  business.  Apart  from  this  there 
have  been  no  developments  of  import- 
ance. The  favorable  result  of  the  elec- 
tion ensures  a  continuance  of  the  "Carry- 
on-with-the-War"  policy  which  will  be  to 
the  benefit  of  the  industrial  situation  in 
Canada. 

The  shortage  of  raw  materials,  parti- 
cularly of  steel,  is  assuming  more  serious 
proportions,  and  there  is  no  relief  in 
sisht.  A  serious  shortage  of  coal  has  re- 
cently been  revealed  in  some  parts  of 
this  province,  while  the  natural  gas  sup- 
ply hns  failed  in  Western  Ontario,  due  to 
the  severe  weather  prevailina:.  A  number 
of  factories  have  been  practically  closed 
down,  causing  a  dislocation  of  business. 
Steel 
The  shortage  of  iron  and  steel,  which 
has  already  caused  some  restriction  in 
jnanufacturing     operations,      shows     no 


IVIARKET     LETTER     DEVELOP- 
MENT 

The  attention  of  metal  working 
plant  executives  is  directed  to  the 
enlargement  of  the  scope  and  use- 
fulness of  our  Market  Letter  De- 
partment. In  New  York  and  Pitts- 
burgh, expert  correspondents  have 
been  engaged,  and  are  already 
furnishing  each  week  concise  re- 
ports of  production  activities,  price 
movements,  etc.,  within  the  terri- 
tory served  by  each  of  these  im- 
portant centres.  During  the  next 
few  weeks,  further  additions  will 
be  made  to  the  number  of  our

needs  have  first  call  upon  their  output. 

As  far  as  can  be  judged  at  present  no 
marked  price  recessions  are  likely  to  be 
ir.jde  this  year.  The  lighter  gau>:,xs  of 
black  sheets  are  easier,  having  declined 
again,  and  a  decline  in  boiler  plate  is  ex- 
pected shortly.  Apart  from  these  two 
products,  there  is  no  indication  of  an  im- 
mediate fall  in  prices  on  steel  products 
generally.  The  situation,  however,  in  re- 
gard to  prices  is  somewhat  uncertain,  and 
may  to  some  extent  depend  upon  de- 
velopments at  Washington.  An  important 
meeting  was  held  in  that  city  towards 
the  end  of  last  week,  when,  it  is  uncier- 
slood,  the  question  of  revising  the  fixed 
price  schedule  was  discussed.  No  an- 
nouncement has  been  made  in  rej-ard  to 
the  result  of  the  conference,  but  it  is  be- 
lieved that  the  present  schedule  of  steel 
prices  will  be  reaffirmed  by  the  Govern- 
ment. 

President  Wilson  had  previously  fixed 
steel  prices  with  the  understanding  that 


they  would  be  subject  to  review  after 
January  1.  At  last  week's  meeting  the 
steel  men  pointed  out  that  reductions  in 
the  present  rates,  which  it  is  understood 
had  been  contemplated,  would  seriously 
impair  the  efficiency  of  the  industry.  It 
is  considered  almost  certain  that  the 
Government  will  allow  the  present 
schedules  to  stand. 

The  unfilled  tonnage  statements  of  the 
U.  S.  Steel  Corporation  for  November 
revealed  a  shrinkage  of  about  150,000 
tons  from  the  previous  month,  but  it  was 
the  smallest  decrease  that  has  been 
shown  for  some  time,  and  as  there  was 
no  let  up  in  shipments,  it  is  a  sign  that 
the  current  business  of  steel  companies 
is  showing  a  big  increase,  with  prospects 
good  for  an  increase  in  unfilled  tonnage 
for  December.  At  present  time  the  vol- 
ume of  steel  business  is  showing  some  in- 
crease over  what  it  has  been  at  any  time 
previously  since  price-fixing  was  first 
announced,  with  private  consumers  good 
buyers  and  a  number  of  large  Govern- 
ment contracts  being  placed. 

Pig  Iron 

The  shortage  of  coke  continues  to 
cause  much  anxiety  to  consumers,  and  as 
a  result  the  pig  iron  situation  is  growing 
more  serious.  Production  of  pig  iron  in 
this  district  has  not  yet  suffered  much 
from  the  lack  of  coke,  but  will  likely  do 
so  unless  conditions  improve  materially 
in  the  near  future.  In  the  United  States 
the  shortage  of  pig  iron,  in  view  of  the 
heavy  demand,  has  reached  an  acute 
stage,  and  is  steadily  growing  worse, 
with  little  hope  of  improvement  in  sight. 
Instead  of  meeting  the  growing  demand, 
the  furnaces  have  been  barely  able  to 
keep  the  output  from  falling  behind,  the 
output  not  being  sufficient  to  meet  the 
consuming  requirements  of  the  trade. 

Scrap 

There  is  little  to  be  said  in  regard  to 
conditions  in  the  market  for  scrap 
metals.  Business  is  very  quiet;  in  fact, 
there  is  hardly  enough  business  passing 
to  form  a  correct  opinion  of  prices.  The 
principal  reason  for  the  dull  market  is 
the  contemplated  price-fixing  in  the 
States.  On  this  account  consumers  are 
staying  out  of  the  market  pending  a  de- 
finite settlement  of  fixed  prices. 

Machine  Tools 

This  has  been  a  comparatively  quiet 
week  in  the  machine  tool  business,  with 
no  developments  of  particular  import- 
ance. The  demand  is  principally  for 
tools  for  those  munitions  plants  which 
are  preparing  to  execute  new  orders  for 
shells.  It  is  becoming  increasingly  diffi- 
cult to  get  equipment  from  the  States, 
as  a  license  has  to  be  obtained  before 
any  machine  can  be  shipped,  and  also  the 
demand  there  is  so  heavy  that  deliveries 
now  run  into  several  months. 

Supplies 

Business  continues  steady,  with  firm 
prices  ruling.  Gasoline  and  coal  oil  are 
very  firm,  due  to  the  advance  in  crude 
oil.  Higher  prices  for  coal  oil  are  not 
unlikely.     An  advance   in   Pratt  &   Cady

MetaLs 
Although  prices  for  the  most  part  con- 
tinue firm  and  unchanired.  the  market  is 
unsettled,  due  to  conflictinjr  report*  from 
Washington  concerning  the  situation  in 
retrard  to  prices  of  copper,  lead  and  spel- 
ter. The  price  of  copper  was  established 
some  time  apo.  but  there  is  an  impres- 
sion that  it  will  be  revised  in  an  upward 
direction.  An  announcement  rejrarding 
fixed  prices  for  lead  and  spelter  is  ex- 
pected any  time,  but  there  is  no  indica- 
tion as  to  what  the  trend  will  be.  The 
tin  situation  continues  very  unsatisfac- 
tory owine  to  the  shortage  and  unusually 
high  prices.  The  shortafre  of  tin  is  seri- 
ous, particularly  for  manufacturers  of 
tin  plate.  Business  in  the  local  metal 
trade  is  steady  and  fairly  active. 

Copper. — Considerable  uncertainty  pre- 
vails in  reirard  to  the  revision  of  copper 
prices,  which  are  beins  considered  at 
Washingrton.  The  general  feeling  seems 
to  be  that  if  any  change  is  made  at  all  it 
will  be  upward.  It  is  generally  believed 
that  there  will  be  sufficient  copper  to 
meet  all  demands,  and  the  situation  in 
this  respect  is  satisfactory.  Copper 
prices  are  unchanged,  lake  and  electroly- 
tic being  quoted  at  32c  and  castings  at 
31c  per  pound. 

Tin. — The  serious  shortage  of  pig  tin, 
evident  for  over  a  month,  threatens  to 
cut  down  the  production  of  tin  plate. 
This  shortage  has  already  been  respons- 
ible for  a  sharp  advance  in  price,  and 
there  is  no  indication  of  any  improve- 
ment in  the  situation  in  the  meantime. 
It  is  understood  that  the  U.  S.  Govern- 
ment is  taking  steps  to  have  the  British 
regulations  modified  in  respect  to  tin,  so 
as  to  allow  of  adequate  consignments  be- 
ing shipped  to  the  States.  Tin  quotations 
locally  are  nominal  and  unchanged  at  80c 
per  pound. 

Spelter. — The  market  is  inclined  to  be 
easy  pending  the  expected  announcement 
from    Washington,    which    may    fix    the 


pruc  for  prime  Western  and  the  higher 
grades.  Local  price  is  unchangeil  at  lOH-c 
per  pound. 

Load. — The  market  is  unsettled,  being 
influenced  by  the  price-fixing  now  under 
consideration  at  Washington.  The  im- 
pression prevails  that  if  a  tlovernment 
price  is  established  it  will  probably  be  be- 
low the  current  market.  In  the  mean- 
time lead  is  unchanged  at  SH-c  per 
pound. 

Antlmon\. — The  market,  which  was 
active  some  days  ago,  is  now  quiet.  Quo- 
tations are  unchanged  at   18c  per  pound. 

Aluminum. — The  market  for  aluminum 
is  steady  and  unchanged  at  62c  per 
pound. 


Washington 

VV..\SHI\t;TO\.  D.C,  Dec.  1.-..— Chair- 
man K.  .\.  Hurley,  of  the  United  States 
Shipping  Board,  this  week  announced 
that  the  Board  in  co-oporation  with  the 
Federal  Bureau  of  Standards  will  under- 
take the  construction  of  concrete  cargo 
ships.  This  decision  follows  an  investi- 
gation by  the  Bureau  of  Standards  of  a 
4,500-ton  concrete  vessel  now  under  con- 
struction at  San  Francisco.  The  Ship- 
ping Board  and  the  Bureau  of  Standards 
will  send  special  representatives  to  the 
San  Francisco  yard  at  once  to  gather 
information  regarding  the  methods  of 
construction.  These  will  be  used  in 
later  concrete  construction  by  the  Gov- 
ernment. 

Concrete  .Ship  Construction 

The  Shipping  Board  has  negotiated  a 
provisional  contract  with  Matthew  Hale, 
of  Boston,  for  the  construction  of  twenty 
concrete  ships  of  .'i.iiOO  tons  each,  by  a 
Boston  Company,  to  be  called  the  Liberty 
Shipbuilding  Corporation.  The  contract 
provides  for  a  concrete  vessel  now  under 
construction  by  the  Boston  concern  being 
accepted  by  the  Emergency  Fleet  Cor- 
poration. The  Boston  interests  plan  to 
construct  their  ships  in  a  Southern  yard, 
to  be  located  either  in  South  Carolina  cr 
Georgia.  In  presenting  the  proposal  to 
the  Shipping  Board,  Hale  stated  that 
the  plans  of  his  clients  had  been  approv- 
ed by  marine  experts  of  the  Massa- 
chusetts Institute  of  Technology.  The 
Shipping  Board  is  further  considering 
the  construction  of  concrete  barges  to  be 
used  in  the  coastwise  traffic. 

Barge  and  Tug  Construction 

Chairman  Hurley  has  announced  that 
the  Shipping  Board  has  transferred  $3.- 
360,000  of  its  available  funds  to  the  War 
Department  for  the  construction  of 
twenty-four  barges  and  four  tugs  to  be 
used  on  the  Mississippi  river.  These 
craft  are  essential,  it  was  stated,  in  mov- 
ing lumber  and  steel  to  the  Gulf  ship- 
yards. 

Merchant   Service  Control 

Following  weeks  of  discussion  regard- 
ing control  of  the  personnel  of  th?  mer- 
chant service,  a  compromise  has  been 
reached  whereby  the  Shipping  Board  and 
the  Navy  Department  will  exerc'se  joint 
control.  The  plan  for  joint  jurisdiction 
was  explained  in  an  announcement,  is- 
sued by  the  Shipping  Board,  as  follows: 


"Tho  bulk  of  vessels  under  the  Ameri- 
can (lag,  whether  engaged  in  the  trans- 
Atlantic  trade  or  elsewhere,  so  long  as 
they  retain  their  character  as  merchan^- 
mon.  will  continue  to  bo  manne.!  by  mer- 
chant sailors.  Troopships  and  vessels 
carrying  whole  cargoes  of  munitions  or 
sup|)lios  for  the  army  and  navy,  l.o'v- 
ever,  for  military  reasons,  will  be  iumi- 
ncd  by  naval  crews." 

Acting  on  this  plan  tho  Shipping  Board 
luis  adopted  a  comprehensive  program 
for  obtaining  civilian  crows  that  will  be 
needed  on  tho  new  lloets  of  the  merch- 
ant marine.  About  .'iS.OOO  officers  and 
men  will  be  re(iuirod  for  the  ships  the 
Board  aims  to  put  into  commission  be- 
fore tho  end  of  1!)18. 

Kxplosive   Plant    Construction 

Daniel  C.  Jackling,  of  San  Francisco, 
managing  director  of  a  group  of  copper 
mines,  has  been  designated  by  Secretary 
of  War  Baker  to  take  charge  of  the 
building  of  the  Government's  explosive 
plants.  Expenditure  of  more  than  .$90,- 
000,000  is  contomplated  in  the  erection  of 
these  plants  to  supplement  the  present 
output  of  the  private  munitions  manu- 
facturers. 

Thomas  A.  Edison,  with  four  other  in- 
ternationally known  scientists,  may  .soon 
be  called  upon  to  rule  on  the  genuine- 
ness of  what  is  claimed  to  be  the  great- 
est invention  of  mankind.  The  "Gara- 
bed"  resolution,  providing  investigation 
of  the  purported  discovery  of  Garabed 
T.  K.  Giragossian  of  a  virgin  natural 
force  has  passed  the  House  of  Repre- 
sentatives. If  the  Senate  and  President 
Wilson  approve  it,  a  committee  of  five 
eminent  scientists  1 1  which  the  invention 
will  be  demonstrated  will  be  appointed. 
Closing  hours  of  the  debate  on  tho 
resolution  produced  a  strange  .scene.  Op- 
ponents of  Garabed,  after  interposing 
every  known  parliamentary  obstruction, 
had  brought  into  the  House  floor  an 
electrical  machine  which  they  claimed 
paralleled  the  Garabed  invention,  but  it 
was  removed  shortly  after.  Henry 
Perrigo.  Kansas  City,  Mo.,  electrician, 
whose  machine  figured  in  the  wrangle, 
stated  he  will  attempt  to  induce  Con- 
gress to  subject  his  invention  to  tho 
same  committee  of  scientists  which  will 
pass  on  the  "Garabed."  Perrigo  claims 
to  be  able  to  produce  unlimited  electricity 
from  the  air  without  the  use  of  fuel. 
Garabed's  claims  are  not  based  on  elec- 
tricity. 

Under  schedule  2531%,  the  Bureau  of 
Supplies  and  Accounts,  Navy  Depart- 
ment, will  open  bids  on  December  28  for 
furnishing  machine  tools.  On  the  same 
day,  under  schedule  2529%  the  Bureau 
will  open  bids  for  furnishing  64  motor 
generators  and  29  dynamo  motors  to 
various  navy  yards. 

A  quantity  of  pipe,  nuts,  rivets,  hoes, 
etc.,  are  required  by  the  Panama  Canal 
Commission,  bids  for  which  will  be  open- 
ed December  28,  under  Circular  1189. 
which  can  be  obtained  from  General 
Purchasing  Agent,  this  city. 

The  Alaskan  Engineering  Commission 
is    inviting   bids   until    December   27   for 


December  20,   1917.

Now  York 

NKW  YORK,  Oec.  ITi. — GovcrnmciU 
munition  onlors  are  still  bcintr  placoil 
with  a  lilH>ral  hand,  and  other  war  con- 
tracts arc  in  readiness  as  soon  as 
the  factories  have  been  adjusted  to 
take  them.  Freight  consrestion,  railroad 
embargoes,  snow.storms  and  zero  wea- 
ther, while  curtailintr  plant  opera- 
tions in  New  KnRland.  have  failed  to 
check  the  ardor  of  manufacturers,  who 
are  jrivinv:  almost  their  entire  time  to 
assistini?  the  Government  to  produce 
>:uns,  shell  and  air  craft  for  the  army  and 
navy.  There  is  scarcely  a  New  Enpland 
factory  that  has  not  received  an  order  of 
some  kind  from  the  Watertown  Arsenal 
coverinp  pun  parts  and  mechanisms  and 
tools  to  equip  the  new  extensions  at 
Watertown. 

.\t  Bridpeport  the  Liberty  Ordnance 
Co.  is  preparing  to  preatly  increase  its 
output  of  ,1-inch  naval  puns,  and  the 
Rcminpton  .\rms  U.  M.  C.  Co.  is  increas- 
ing production  of  rifles  and  cartridges. 
The  Colt's  Patent  Fire  Arms  Mfp.  Co., 
Hartford,  C-onn.,  is  rapidly  equipping  its 
plant  at  Meriden,  which  was  recently  ac- 
quired. Half  of  the  Mayo  radiator  plant 
at  New  Haven,  belonsring'  to  the  Marlin 
Arms  Co.,  is  being  converted  for  the 
manufacture  of  rapid  fire  machine  guns, 
and  it  is  also  increasing  the  output  of  its 
Norwich  plant.  The  Sterling  Motor  Co., 
Brockton.  Mass..  is  building  an  addition 
in  order  to  be  in  position  to  execute  new 
contracts  for  shell  and  for  gun  sights, 
recently  received  from  the  Government. 
Airplane  Plant  Organization 
Furniture  manufacturers  of  Grand 
Rapids,  Mich.,  at  the  behest  of  the  Gov- 
ernment have  mobilized  their  plants  for 
the  manufacture  of  airplanes  and  have 
organized  the  Grand  Rapids  Airplane 
Co.  with  a  capital  stock  of  $200,000, 
through  which  individual  manufacturers 
will  receive  their  orders  from  the  Gov- 
ernment. Automobile  plants  at  Lansing, 
Mich.,  are  preparing  their  factories  to 
turn  out  war  munitions.  The  Reo  Motor 
Co.  is  making  changes  in  its  shop  equip- 
ment for  the  manufacture  of  shrapnel 
cases.  The  Lincoln  Motor  Co.,  cif  Detroit, 
who  recently  purchased  $2,500,000  worth 
of  machine  tools  to  manufacture  Liberty 
airplane  motors,  expects  to  have  the  new 
plant,  now  under  construction,  ready  for 
operation  by  the  middle  of  February. 
Dodge  Bros.,  Detroit,  who  have  been 
awarded  a  large  contract  for  recoil  gun 
devices  by  the  Government,  expect  to 
nave  their  new  plant  ready  in  the  spring, 
and  fifty  of  the  tools  recently  com- 
mandeered by  the  Government  in  New 
York  have  been  ordered  shipped  to  De- 
troit. 

Fewer  large  contracts  for  machinery 
were  placed  in  the  New  Y'ork  market  in 
the  past  week,  but  there  is  still  an  active 


demand  for  small  lots  of  tools  needed  by 
plants  on  the  seaboard  as  well  as  in  the 
interior.  The  American  Can  Co.,  which 
has  an  order  for  four  million  1^>  mm. 
shell  from  the  Government,  is  preparing; 
to  purchase  l.'iO  tools  for  the  equipment 
of  its  Edgewater,  N.J.,  plant.  This  com- 
pany is  also  going  to  increase  its  plant 
at  Jersey  City.  The  Standard  Ordnance 
Corporation,  which  is  to  build  1,').')  mm. 
gun  carriages  at  Hamilton,  Ohio,  has 
made  adilitional  purchases  of  tools  in  the 
New  York  market.  The  United  States 
Government  is  still  in  the  market  for 
cranes  for  installation  in  the  new  shops 
at  the  Washington  Navy  Yard  and  for 
equipping  the  Sandy  Hook  Proving 
Ground. 

Steel  Output    Will   .Meet    Kcquirenient.s 

.\t  the  Washington  conference  last 
Monday  between  the  War  Industries 
Board  and  represenUitives  of  the  Iron  & 
Steel  Institute  it  is  understood  that  as- 
surance was  given  by  the  producers  that 
while  the  output  of  steel  is  being  cut 
down  by  coke  shortage  and  freight  con- 
gestion, an  ample  supply  of  all  products 
will  be  available  to  meet  war  require- 
ments of  the  United  States  Government 
and  its  Allies.  The  question  of  price  re- 
vision to  be  made  after,  the  1st  of  .Jan- 
uary was  only  referred  to  incidentally, 
but  some  consideration  was  given  to 
prices  at  the  meetinir  held  yesterday. 

The  Iron  &  Steel  Institute  is  preparing 
a  pamphlet  giving  in  detail  the  base  and 
differential  prices  with  tables  of  "extras" 
established  by  agreement  between  the 
Government  and  the  manufacturers, 
which,  by  request  of  the  War  Board,  will 
be  issued  to  the  trade  as  the  official 
guide.  It  is  known  that  some  members 
of  the  Federal  Trade  Commission  are  in 
favor  of  revising  prices  in  the  near  fu- 
ture, but  this  sentiment  is  not  accepted 
by  the  War  Industries  Board,  and  the 
steel  manufacturers  and  distributors  are 
strongly  opposed  to  any  changes  until 
time  has  been  given  to  test  the  schedules 
already  adopted. 


Pittsburgh 


PITTSBURGH,  Pa.,  Dec.  15.— The 
steel  market  has  turned  still  quieter  in 
the  past  week.  There  is  an  effort  made 
by  some  authorities  in  the  trade  to 
ascribe  the  quieter  conditions  of  the  past 
fortnight  to  the  resuscitation  at  Wash- 
ington of  the  price  question.  At  the 
same  time  they  profess  to  feel  assured 
that  the  Washington  authorities  are  not 
going  to  make  any  serious  effort  to  have 
prices  revised  downward,  and  no  one  eon- 
tends  that  there  is  any  hope  of  the  pro- 
ducers having  them  revised  upwards.  It 
seems  more  natural  to  attribute  the 
quietness  of  trade  to  the  season  of  the 
year  and  the  fact  that  the  country  is 
getting  still  more  on  a  war  basis. 

Last  Monday's  conference  between  the 
War  Industries  Board  and  the  iron  and 
steel  makers  was  devoted  chiefly  to  con- 
sideration of  revised  methods  for  appor- 
tioning w-ar  steel  tonnage  and  placing 
the  actual  orders.  Prices,  it  is  said,  were 
mentioned  only  casually.  The  programme 
is  that  following  yesterday's  conference 


between  the  Fedei-al  Trai|i>  ("oiiniiission 
and  representatives  of  the  steel  industry 
tlie  Commission  will  submit  to  the  War 
Industries  Bo;ird  some  of  the  cost  data  it 
has  been  accumulating  in  the  i)ast  six 
moiitlis,  whereupon  the  board  will  call 
another  meeting  with  the  steel  industry 
prior  to  Jan.  1,  As  the  various  set  prices 
were  definitely  announce<l  to  run  to  that 
date,  it  is  necessary  to  take  some  formal 
action,  if  only  to  pronounce  them  good 
for  a  further  period  or  for  an  iiulelinilc 
tinu'. 

Operating    DilTicultie.s 

A  cold  snap,  with  zero  weather,  de- 
scended upon  the  whole  central  west  im- 
mediately after  last  report  was  written, 
and  in  the  past  week  all  operations  in 
the  iron  and  steel  industry  have  been 
materially  reduced.  There  has  been  a 
fresh  shortage  of  coal  at  many  steel 
plants  and  the  shortage  of  coke  at  blast 
furnaces  has  been  accentuated.  There 
have  also  been  difficulties  with  frozen 
ore,  frozen  pipes  and  other  obstacles  to 
full  production. 

While  much  is  made  in  trade  circles  of 
the  decreased  production  arising  from 
weather  and  transportation  difliiculties, 
it  is  important  to  observe  that  the  steel 
makers  have  given  the  Government 
authorities  fresh  assurances  that  all  the 
war  steel  required  will  be  furnished  on 
time,  while  on  the  other  hand  ordinary 
buyers  do  not  seem  to  be  incommoded 
seriously  by  insufficient  deliveries  of 
steel.  If  they  are  not  receiving  as  much 
as  they  could  use  under  normal  condi- 
tions, their  own  operations  have  likewise 
been  interfered  with  by  much  the  same 
influences  that  have  operated  in  the  steel 
industry. 

Production  Varies 

The  rate  of  production  shows  wide 
vai'iations  in  diff'erent  lines.  Steel  is  di- 
verted to  the  finishing  departments, 
whose  product  is  most  needed.  Sheet 
bar  supplies  to  tin  mills  are  almost  nor- 
mal, while  to  sheet  mills  they  are  greatly 
reduced.  In  the  past  week  the  tin  mills 
have  operated  at  between  90  and  95  per 
cent,  of  capacity,  the  sheet  mills  at  only 
about  50  per  cent.  Production  of  shell 
steel  and  plates  seems  to  have  been  well 
maintained,  while  production  of  standard 
steel  pipe  and  wire  has  sufl'ered  greatly. 
All  the  American  Steel  &  Wire  Co. 
plants  at  Cleveland  were  down  at  the  be- 
ginning of  the  week,  chiefly  from  lack  of 
coal. 

Pig  Iron 

It  continues  to  be  the  case  that  there  is 
pi-actically  no  pig  iron  ofl'ered  in  the 
market  for  early  deliveries.  There  is  no 
basic  or  Bessemer  at  all,  and  foundry 
iron  can  only  be  bought,  if  at  all,  by  reg- 
ular customers  of  the  furnaces.  There 
is,  however,  some  foundry  iron  business 
being  done  for  second  quarter  and  sec- 
ond half  of  next  year.  The  require- 
ments of  foundries  are  much  lighter 
than  formerly,  but  there  is  con-espond- 
ingly  light  production,  so  many  furnaces 
being  operated  on  basic  iron.  Quotations 
when  made  are  always  at  the  set  prices, 
$3.3  for  basic  or  No.  2  foundry,  $36.30

i-ica.-iinir    very   considerably. 


I'ro.spect.s  of  Supplies 
While  the  market  situation  presents 
the  appearance  of  streuK'th,  with  deliver- 
ies ill  practically  all  lines  rather  dilli- 
cult  to  secure,  excejit  upon  old  contracts, 
there  is  little  doubt  but  that  with  any- 
thinKT  like  full  proiluction  of  the  basic 
materials,  pij:  iron  and  crude  steel,  there 
would  be  fairly  plentiful  supplies  of  tiii- 
ished  steel  in  certain  forms,  those  not 
larnely  renuired  for  prosecutintr  war. 
The  finished  steel  industry  has  only  a 
terUiin  amount  of  flexibility,  the  total 
linishinir  capacity  only  slijilitly  exceed- 
ing the  total  capacity  for  producinjr  raw- 
steel. 

With  the  production  of  raw  steel  cur- 
tailed, the  output  can  be  allotted  in  ac- 
cordance with  the  needs  for  finished  pro- 
ducts, the  mills  makini?  the  products 
most  in  demand  beinir  operated  as  full.\ 
as  possible  while  the  mills  whose  pro 
duct  is  not  so  much  needed  receive  cor- 
respondingly  less   steel.     If   the   produc- 


tion of  steel  were  at  capacity,  instead  of 
in  the  neighborhood  of  8.')  per  cent,  of 
c.ipacity,  the  steel  could  be  finished  only 
l>y  divcrtiiiH:  more  of  it  to  the  dopart- 
nionts  now  operaliiiK  at  far  below  llioir 
capacity,  an<l  such  finished  products 
would  then  be  found  to  be  relatively 
plentiful.  The  ([uestion  is  whether  the 
blast  furnaces  and  steel-makinK-  depart- 
ments can  operate  at  capacity  at  any 
time  this  winter. 

Iron  and  steel  exports  in  Dclobei 
amounted  to  571.8i):i  ^ross  tons,  against 
489,41.')  tons  in  Sci)tember,  and  a  month- 
ly average  of  5-13,000  tons  in  the  lli 
months  November,  lOlG,  to  October, 
1917,  inclusive,  approximately  the 
twelvemonth  period  of  heaviest  exports. 
While  some  exports  have  been  em- 
barjroed,  and  the  shippintr  situation  is 
unsatisfactory,  it  is  evident  that  ship- 
ments of  war  material  are  Koinji'  to  lie 
so  forced  as  to  maintain  a  jiood  total 
tonnajje   of  exports   rijrht   alonn'.

Toronto.  Ont. — Fire  Chief  Smith  has 
recommended  the  purchase  of  two  motoi 
fire  trucks,  to  cost  $24,000,  to  protect  the 
district  surrounded  by  Liberty  Street, 
Dutferin  Street,  Hanna  Avenue  and  the 
G.T.R.  tracks.  Works  Commissioner 
Harris  reports  that  new  high-pressure 
mains  in  the  district  would  cost  $20,000. 
Windsor,  Ont. — The  Water  Commis- 
sioners have  decided  to  instal  at  once 
two  motor-driven  pumps  to  obviate  dan- 
ger which  threatened  to  arise  as  a  re- 
sult of  the  fuel  shortage.  It  is  proposed 
to  use  Hydro  power  to  drive  the  pumps 
and  to  keep  the  present  steam  installa- 
cion  for  auxiliary  purposes.  However, 
in  order  to  relieve  the  load  upon  the 
Hydro  system  in  the  early  evening  the 
steam  pumps  will  be  used  for  an  hour 
or  two. 

Chatham,  Ont.  —  A  serious  situation 
has  developed  in  Western  Ontiirio  on  ac- 
count of  a  shortage  in  supply  of  natural 
gas.  The  gas  pressure  failed  in  Chat- 
ham last  Saturday,  the  available  supply 
being  hardly  sufficient  to  keep  water 
from  freezing  in  the  boilers.  There  ia 
also  very  little  coal  in  the  city  and  a 
number  of  factories  may  have  to  close 
down.  Unless  there  is  a  change  in  the 
temperature  very  little  relief  can  be 
expected. 

Hamilton,  Ont. — At  a  special  meeting 
of  the  Barton  Township  Council  hela 
last  Saturday,  it  was  proposed  to  enact 
a  by-law  for  the  purpose  of  raising  $55,- 
000  for  the  purpose  of  installing  a  Hydro 
system  in  the  township.  It  will  require 
$22,000  as  a  first  investment  to  buy  out 
the  present  system,  the  rest  of  the 
funds  to  be  held  for  extensions,  etc.  The 
question  will  be  placed  before  the  elec- 
tors of  the  township  when  they  ballot 
for  the  municipal  elections. 

North  Vancouver. — The  district  of 
North  Vancouver  council  on  Nov.  29 
passed  a  resolution  authorizing  the  clerk 
to  prepare  a  general  loan  by-law  to  pro- 
vide the  sum  of  $35,000  for  waterworks 
purposes.  The  money,  which  in  the 
event  of  this  by-law  passing  at  the  gen- 
eral elections  in  January,  is  intended  for 
the  establishment  of  a  waterworks  sys- 
tem east  of  Seymour  river.  The  prin- 
cipal need  for  such  a  system  is  to  pro- 
vide a  steady  and  sure  supply  to  the  two 
large  indu.stries  at  Roche  Points — the

New  Tonnage  Equals  Losses. — British 
tonnage  completed  in  the  month  of 
November  was  within  measurable  dis- 
tance of  the  tonnage  losses  in  that  per- 
iod by  enemy  attacks,  it  was  announced 
in  the  House  of  Commons  on  Dec.  11, 
by  Sir  Leo  Money,  Parliamentary  private 
secretary  to  the  Ministry  of  Munitions. 
Contracts  Adwarded  for  4,000  New 
Ships. — Contracts  have  been  let  by  the 
TInited  States  Federal  Shipping  Boaro 
for  4,000  ships  with  net  dead-weight  car- 
rying capacity  of  eight  million  tons. 
Raymond  B.  Stevens,  vice-chairman  of 
the  board,  told  the  members  of  the  Aca- 
demy of  Political  Science  at  the  opening 
of  their  thirty-seventh  annual  meeting  at 
New  York  on  Friday  that  he  thought  at. 
least  six  million  tons  would  be  available 
next  year. 

Buy  Machinery  for  China  in  U.  S. — 
A  party  of  eight  Chinese  has  arrived  in 
New  York  to  an-ange  for  the  purchase  of 
a  large  quantity  of  machinery  for  ship- 
ment to  China.  The  report  has  gone  out 
that  the  purchase  was  to  be  of  agri- 
cultural implements  and  machinery,  but 
Mr.  Y'ing  said  this  was  not  so.  Mr. 
Ying  emphasized  the  fact  that  they  had 
been  appointed  by  the  Chinese  Govern- 
ment to  handle  the  machinery  purchase, 
and  they  would  have  nothing  to  do  with 
any  other  matter  while  in  America. 

U.S.  Steel  Output.— Considering  all 
the  difficulties  against  which  the  steel 
comnanies  have  been  obliged  to  contend, 
production  in  November  was  satisfac- 
tory, being  slightly  larger  than  in  Sep- 
tember or  in  July.  The  average  monthly 
output  of  steel  since  July  1  by  the  Steel 
Corporation  has  been  approximately  1,- 
640,000  tons.  The  production  of  rolled 
products  in  November  is  indicated  to 
have  been  a  little  under  1,200,000  tons, 
and  the  average  monthly  output  since 
July   1   is   1,235,000  tons. 

Wrr  Exnenditure  for  November. — 
Canada's  war  expenditure  during  the 
month  of  November  totalled  $18,714,472, 
making  a  grand  total  of  war  exnendi- 
ture to  November  30  of  $151,969,271. 
The  total  net  debt  on  November  30  was 
$958  000.700.  as  compired  with  $706.- 
128,082  on  November  30.  1916.  Revenue 
for  the  month  on  consolidated  fund  ac- 
count was  $24,322  946.  and  expenditure 
for  the  month  $12,922,635.  Revenue  for 
the  eight  months  period  to  November  30 
was  $170,042,006  and  expenditure  $79,-

ex-President  of  the  Montreal  Board  of 
Trade  and  President  of  the  (.'aiiada

ish Government,  through  Lieutenant- 
Colonel  W.  Orant  .Morden.  the  K'ft  uf 
four  battleplanes  for  use  on  the  Westera 
front,  and  the  Air  Uo.ird,  in  acoeptinir 
the  K'ift.  has  expressed  its  warm  appre- 
ciation of  so  Kenerous  a  contribution. 
Mr.  Carruthers  has  already  presented

Kill  to  (iet  Kid  of  (ierman  Control.  — 
The  non-ferrous  metal  bill,  which  jrives 
the  British  liovernment  control  of  all 
dealings  in  metals  not  containing  iron 
and  is  intended  to  destroy  what  hitherto 
had  been  a  virtual  German  monopoly  in 
those  metals,  was  passed  on  the  second 
readinir  by  the  House  of  Commons,  Lon- 
don. KnKland.  on  Dec.  9.  In  the  course 
of  the  debate  Andrew  Bonar  Law.  Chan- 
cellor of  the  Exchequer,  said  he  wished 
to  let  Germany  know  that  Groat  Britain 
roalii'.'d  her  power  conin:ercially,  and 
Ihat  when  the  time  came  he  should  use 
it.  Germany  should  also  remenibtr,  he 
said,  that  the  longer  t!ie  war  lasted,  the 
leys  jaw  material  there  would  be  to  go 
round  and  the  allies  would  help  them- 
selves first. 

To  Build  TraininK  Ship.— The  Danish- 
Canadian  Patriotic  Fund  of  Toronto  has 
launched  a  campaign  for  a  subscription 
of  $100,000,  which  is  to  pay  for  the 
building  and  rigging  of  a  school-ship  for 
the  training  of  young  lads  in  practical 
seamanship.  It  is  the  intention  of  the  or- 
ganization to  build  other  ships  for  the 
same  purpose.  These  will  be  stationed 
at  such  points  as  St.  John,  Quebec,  MonL- 
reai,  Winnipeg,  Vancouver,  etc.  The 
"Denmark,"  as  the  first  ship  will  be 
called,  is  to  be  presented  to  the  Cana- 
dian Navy  League,  and  will  be  stationed 
at  Toronto.  It  will  be  considered  the 
flagship  of  the  fleet.  All  money  orders 
and  cheques  should  be  made  payable  to 
the  Danish-Canadian  Patriotic  Fund  and 
sent  to  the  Wesley  Building,  Toronto. 

Canada  Large  Buyer  of  L\S.  Tin 
Plate. — According  to  the  United  States 
Department  of  Commerce  imports  of  pig 
tin  and  palm  oil,  both  essential  in  the 
manufacture  of  tin  plate,  show  an  in- 
crease for  the  ten  months  ended  October 
31,  1917,  over  the  corresponding  period 
for  1916,  whUe  exports  of  domestic  tin 
plate  and  teme  plates  show  a  falling  off. 
Imports  of  palm  oil  amounted  to  33,- 
703.671  pounds,  against  24,976,235 
pounds  in  1916,  and  imports  of  pig  tin

pounds,  compared  with  433.000,173 
pounds  in  1916.  Argentina  and  Canada 
were  the  largest  customers  for  Ameri- 
can tin  plate,  the  former  country  leading 
for  the  first  time  in  this  respect.

Power    Cnnal    Making    Progress. — Kx- 

cellent  progress  is  now  being  made  on 
the  Chiiipawa  Hydro-electric  Power 
Canal  and  the  preliminary  work  has  got 
well  under  way.  The  construction  rail- 
way which  will  carry  away  the  material 
excavated  has  been  completed  from  the 
Whirlpool  to  the  power-house,  and  the 
rest  of  the  line  is  being  pushed  forward. 
The  Hydro  encineers  were  handicapped 
by  shortage  of  labor,  but  now  about 
3.'iO  men  are  employed.  At  the  present 
time  operations  are  being  centred  on  the 
erection  of  a  concrete  bridge  for  the

.Tapan  Needs  Chemicals. — The  ban  on 
cotton  and  restriction  on  steel  have  caus- 
ed much  anxiety  throughout  Japan,  but 
now  chemical  importers  are  at  the  fore 
protesting  against  the  shutting  off  of 
their  supplies  of  caustic  soda,  glycer- 
ine, and  soda  ash,  all  of  which  are  large- 
ly obtained  from  the  United  States. 
These  three  articles  are  much  wanted 
in  Japan.  Soda  ash  is  required  for  glas.-i 
manufacture,  and,  to  the  end  of  August 
of  this  year,  was  imported  to  the  value 
of  $1,696,484.  Much  more  than  50  per 
cent,  of  this  came  from  the  United 
States.  England  has  now  prohibited  ex- 
port of  any  of  these  chemicals.  At- 
tempts have  been  made  to  manufacture 
soda  ash  in  Japan,  but  they  are  still  in 
the  experimental  stage.  Glycerine  is 
m-oduced  in  Japan  bv  a  few  concerns, 
hut  their  combined  output  is  entirely  in- 
adequate. 

G.T.R.'s  Annual  Track  Insnection 
Completed. — The  annual  insnection  of 
track  over  the  Grand  Trunk  Railway 
System  has  just  been  completed.  This 
inspection  has  occupied  six  weeks,  and 
has  included  a  thorough  examination  of 
rails,  ties,  etc.,  on  the  1.145  miles  of 
main  line,  and  on  some  thousands  of 
miles  of  branch  lines.  The  inspection 
party  travelled  over  the  system  in  a 
specially  constructed  car  fitted  with 
electrically  controlled  devices  for  regis- 
tering the  efficiency  marks  gained  by  the 
various  sections  for  excellency  of  track 
maintenance.  There  was  the  keenest 
con^petition   .between    the    various    sec- 


tion gangs,  foremen  and  supervisors  for 
the  honors  which  are  given  to  the  section 
considered  to  represent  the  highest 
standard  of  mainlenancc  work.  These 
inspection  trips  serve  to  increase  the 
enthusiasm  of  the  men  engaged  in  this 
important  branch  of  railroad  work,  and 
enable  the  odlcers  to  give  the  closest 
s\ipervi-sion  to  the  maintenance  of  tlie 
track  in  a  high  state  of  elliciency.

Standard    Oil    Co.,    of    New    Jersey. 

Lt.  J.  K.  L.  ROS.S.  of  the  R.N.C.V.R., 
has  been  promoted  to  the  rank  of  com- 
mander for  the  si)lendid  services  he  has

Col.  Magee,  and  left  in  1916  for  England,

fax. Capt.  Murray  was  for  about  15 
years  in  the  Elder-Dempster  West  Afri- 
can trade,  and  also  in  the  West  India

Elder-Dempster  line,  Captain  Murray 
went  with  the  ships  and  served  under  the 
C.P.R.  until  four  years  ago,  when  he  be- 
came Harbor  Master  of  Quebec.  When

Hst  summer  returned  to  Halifax,  where 
he  was  put  in  the  Imoerial  service.  He

Frank  Mutton,  Salesman 

and  salesmanager  of  very  brilliant  record — has  completely  caught  a  point  of  view  which 
we  have  been  presenting  for  years  and  years,  and  latterly,  most  of  all.  This  point  of 
\  lew  is: 

■    Men  engaged  earnestly  in  the  affairs  of  business  will  and  do  find  immense  help  and 
illumination  from  reading  each  week    THE   FINANCIAL    POST    OF   CANADA. 


THEY  -et  wheat  sifted 
from  the  chaff.  They 
set  news  and  information 
about  the  things  that 
really  count  in  the  e(jn- 
(luct  and  inoveinents  of 
business  and  Canadian 
pulilic  affairs.  They  get  ;i 
olear  interpretation  dl"  news, 
events,  happenings  and  fac- 
tors that  detei'inine  jiresent 
and  future  developments. 
They  read  what  big  men  have 
written  or  said  about  Canadian 
liusiness  and  public  affairs, 
and  what  exceedingly  well- 
informed  men  glean  about 
securities,  markets,  tendencies 
and  other  phases  of  l)usiness 
and  investments;  they  read  a 
commercial  newspaper  most  in- 
terestingly wi-itten,  admirably 
edited,  sane  and  unpartizan.  When 
a  newspaper  of  this  type  and 
quality  is  available,  the  wonder  is 
that  any  business  executive  or 
salesman  or  salesmanager  tries 
to  set  along  without  it. 


If  we  had  written  this  letter 
ourselves,  we  could  not  have  put 
it  better : 

Attention,  Editor 

Recently  we  sent  you  a  subscrip- 
tion covering-  the  delivery  of  "The 
Financial  Post"  to  each  of  our

going  on  in  the  different  industries

Country.  Your  paper  contains  in- 
formation that  is  invaluable  to  any

F.  E.  MUTTON, 

General  Manager, 
International  Time  Recording  Com- 
pany of  Canada,   Limited. 
Toronto,  Oct.  12,  1917. 

Prior  to  his  connection  with  International  Time 
Recording:  Company,  Mr.  Mutton  was  Canadian  man- 
asrer   of  National    Cash    Register  Co. 


N 


O  salesman  or  sales- 
manager  can  do  his 
best  work  without  know- 
ing- the  kind  of  news 
which  T  ri  E  FINAN- 
CIAL POST  exists  to 
]iroYide.  Anything  that 
multiplies  a  salesman's- 
or  salesmanager 's  know- 
ledge and  ability  requir- 
ed in  the  selling  of  goods 
and  in  meeting  buyers 
and  customers,  is  likely 
to  he  a  cheap,  cheap  in- 
Yestment.  Mr.  Mutton 
was  and  is  a  success  be- 
cause he  incorporated  in- 
to himself  and  his  or- 
ganization outer  forces 
of  ])ower.  Read  his  let- 
ter auain. 


OUR  POINT  IS: 

BUSINESS  and  salesmanagers  can  most  profitably  do  what  Mr.  Mutton  has  done: 
Subscribe  for  a  copy  for  each  man  able  to  use  knowledge  of  current  business  and 
public  affairs  in  Canada  to  increase  sales,  to  buy  wisely,  to  know  when  to  extend  or  con- 
tract credit,  and  when  to  go  slow  or  speed  up  production.

What   Can  You  Save? 

By  Using  Parts  Made  in  the 
Punch  Press 

Look  over  your  standard  parts,  Mr.   Manufacturer,  and  see  what  parts 

can   be   made    (or  could   be   made  by   slight  change   in   design)    by   this 

process. 

You  will  be  surprised  at  the  saving  you  can  effect. 

We   make   Blanking,   Perforating,  Drawing,  Forming  and  all   classes  of 

dies   and   tools   for   plain    or   difficult     stamping     to   suit   the    production 

required. 

A  Battery  of  presses  is  also  available  at  our  plant  to  manufacture  parts 

for  you  with  the  understanding  that  you  pay  only  for  good  parts  made. 

Our  facilities  ensure  prompt  deliveries  at  right  prices.

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.

Oxy Acetylene  \vl^lcling  and  Cutting 


Two  Thousand  Joints  on  Ten 
Miles  of  Piping  Made  Leak- 
Proof  at  Less  Cost 


This  illustration  shows  the  jrroundwoi-k  of  2-inch 
iimmonia  pipe  which  forms  the  floor  of  one  of  the 
Inrjrest  artificial  ice  rinks  in  the  world.  The  size 
of  this  immense  rink  is  210  ft.  by  90  ft.  Ten 
miles  of  pipinp  was  required,  and  every  one  of  the 
2.000  joints  was  welded  by  the  Prest-0-Lite 
Process  at  a  substantial  saving  in  cost  over  the 
old-style  threaded  joint.  Moreover,  the  work  was 
neater  and  smoother  as  well  as  stronRer,  because 
the  welded  joint  is  as  strong  as  the  pipe  itself. 


PROCESS 

has  become  standard  practice  on  steel  pipe  lines 
in  thousands  of  factories  and  plants.  It  is  widely 
used  in  the  construction  of  piping  systems  for 
steam,  gas  or  air — in  office  buildings,  hotel?,  fac- 
tories, power  plants,  mines,  machine  shops  and 
refrigerating   installations. 

The  Prest-0-Lite  Process  employs  both  Rases*  (acetylene  and 
oxyecnl  in  portable  cylinders.  Prest-0-Lite  Dissolved  Ace- 
tylene (ready  to  usel  is  backed  by  Prcst-0-Lite  Service, 
which  insures  prompt  exchanRe  of  full  cylinders  for  empty 
ones.  Provides  dry.  purified  gas.  insuring  better  welds, 
iiuicker  work  and  lower  oi>erating  cost.  Adaptable  for  oxy- 
acetylene  cuttint:  by  the  addition  of  a  special  cutting  blow- 
pipe. 

Full  instructions  are  furnished  free  to  every  user  of  Prest- 
0-I.ite  Dis.solved  Acttylene.  Any  average  workman  who 
understands  metals  can  learn  the  process  quickly  and  easily. 
Write  for  valuable  illustrated  literature  and  data  on  work 
others  are  doing  by  this  process,  in  construction,  manufac- 
turing and  repairing.  It  may  prove  to  be  the  solution  of 
your   problems.

A    corner    of   one   of    L'Air    Liquide    Society's    Canadian    factories    for    manufacturing    Oxygen    and 

Dissolved    Acetylene. 

What  that  word  "Service"  means  to  you 


The  Oxy-Acetylene  process,  to  be  the  means  of  saving' 
you  money,  time  and  labor,  must  be  supported  by  an 
efficient  service  for  g-ases  (Oxygen  and  Dissolved  Acety- 
lene). On  this  alone  depends  the  success  or  failure  of 
the  process  when  applied  to  your  industry.  Neither 
effort  nor  money  expenditure  has  been,  or  is  being, 
spared  to  give  the  word  "Service"  its  true  and  distinct

The  Diamo-Carbo  Dresser  is  being  very  generally

Diamonds  are  becoming  more  scarce  and  quality  is 
deteriorating.  The  quality  of  the  Diamo-Carbo  is  uni- 
form and  in  most  places  will  do  the  same  work  as  a 
diamond.     They   can    be   tried   at   our   expense. 

The  Desmond  Huntington  No.  2  is  the  best  dresser

NO  DRAGGING  BACK  ON  THE 

NON-CUTTING  STROKE 


To   proitct   users   of   Racine    Hitrh-Spced   Metal-Cutting 

Machines,  we  caro'  a  large  stock  of  the  famous 

Racine  H.S.   Tungsten   Blades. 


A  patented  device  of  this  Racine  High  Speed  Metal 
Cutting  Machine  automatically  lifts  the  ])iade  clear 
of  the  work  on  every  return  stroke. 

In  this  feature  alone  the  Racine  increases  both  out- 
13ut  and  endurance  of  the  blade  500  per  cent. 

Therefore  time  saved — blades  saved — would  soon 
return  to  your  pocket  the  reasonable  cost  of  a  Racine. 

This  fact — because  it  is  a  fact — could  be  proved  to 
your  satisfaction  if  you'd  let  us  send  you  names  of 
Canadian  j)lants  using  Racines — -one  Montreal  plant 
is  using  168  —  or  if  you'd  let  us  ship  a  Racine  on 
trial  terms  that  you  consider  fair.

of  slow  hand-and-wrench  methods  in  hundreds 
of  plants,  the  change  to  Hannifin  increasing 
output  from  20  to  100  per  cent.  And  that  is  not  all. 
Seven  times  in  ten  Hannifin  Air  Chucks  and  Man- 
drels are  operated  by  men  and  boys  new  to  machine 
shop  vv  ork — and  often  by  women. 

80  long  as  there  is  labor — male  or  female — capable  of 
simply  turning  the  Hannifin  air  control  lever,  Hanni- 
tin  Air  Equipment  will  enable  you  to  meet  the 
demands  of  war  on  a  100  per  cent,  efficiency  basis. 

io  prove  the  altogether  superior  features  of  Hannifin 
Air  Equipment,  we  ship  on  trial.  And  if  you  find  a 
Hannifin  Air  Chuck  is  not  all  we  claim — almost

more  about  submarines  and  their  capturinp  in  the  January  MACLEAN'S,  and  pass  on  to  others  the  news  of 
this  unsigned  contribution. 

Ships — more  ships — and  yet  more  ships 

Tills  i.<  a  very  strong  article  which  Miss  Agnes  C.  Laut  contributes.  As  usual  she  is  very  well  informed. 
Regarding  the  duration  of  the  war  she  voices  American  opinion  when  she  says  that  it  is  likely  to  be  long  drawn- 
out.  The  United  States  people  are  buckling  down  to  a  stern  struggle.  At  this  time  we  want  very  much  to  read 
what  well-informed,  virile  thinkers  and  writers  have  to  .say  about  the  war,  since  things  are  not  any  too  bright  in 
certain  directions.  Miss  I.aut  has  a  good  deal  to  say  about  the  shipping  programme  of  the  T'niled  States,  and  cer- 
tainly she  gives  facts  and  sets  us  thinking  as  few  writers  do. 


"Jim"  by  Robert  VV.  Service 

A  POEM  by  this  strong  poet — a  poem 
wroufrht  amid  the  smoke  and  hell  of 
battle,  yet  fanciful  and  tender.  One 
wonders  how  men  can  write  fanciful 
verse  amid  surroundings  that  seem  so 
adverse  to  thinking  and  writing,  yet 
some  gifted  can  detach  themselves  and 
let  fancy  play;  or  is  it  that  their  minds 
see  through  the  real  and  horrible — 
through  the  immediate  environment  into 
inner  things?  Whatever  it  may  be,  we 
ought  to  be  glad  for  the  verse  that  men 
like  Service  give  us,  remembering  how 
and  where  it  is  produced. 


Adam  and  Arthur  William 
Brown,  Brothers 

aDAM  brown  is  a  Canadian  short 
/A  story  writer  of  large  promise.  His 
brother,  Arthur  William,  is  one  of 
New  York's  foremost  illustrators.  Both 
brothers  have  joined  their  gifts  to  make 
Hannibal  Helps  a  mightv  good  feature  of 
the  .January  MACLEAN'S. 

A  New  Serial  by 
Alan  Sullivan 

ALAN  SULLIVAN'S  recent  novel.  The 

/-\    Inner  Door,  is  being  well  received. 

Perhaps  we  have  no  better  novelist 

of  his  type  in  Canada  to-day.     He  writes 


books  that  show  introspection  and  fine 
analysis.  This  serial.  The  Magic  Makers, 
adds  venture  and  mystery  to  psycho- 
logical study,  and  is  a  rare  good  thing. 
Arthur  Heming  illustrates  the  story, 
which  begins  in  Scotland  and  is  transfer- 
red to  Canada  where  the  stage  is  set. 

The   Regular    Departments 
of  MacLean's 

REVIEW  of  Reviews,  Women  at 
Work,  The  Business  Outlook — are 
'  present  in  goodly  measure.  Op- 
penheim's  The  PavvTis  Count,  Trench 
Pictures,  and  first-class  illustrations  by 
artists  of  note  help  to  make  the  January 
MACLEAN'S  good  value  for  money.

Lower  Your

Made  by  the 
Rich  Tool  Company 


FORGED  DRILLS 


Not  one  in  one  thousaml  snaps  on  the  toughest  ili'illing  joljs,  whether  or  not 
feed  is  heavy  and  speed  high. 

And  Rich  Forged  Drills  never  burn  nor  bind  when  your  drill  pre.sses  are 
stepped  to  maximum  speed  and  the  feed  crowded  because  the  work  is  a  rash 
job. 

Rich  Forged  Drills  are  highest  grade  high-speed  steel — and  the  fibrous 
grain  is  not  cut  and  consequently  weakened  as  in  a  milled  drill. 

Uther  rea.sons  whj'  Rich  Forged  Drills  accomplish  more  than  ordinary  drills 
any  user  of  Rich  Forged  Drills  will  explain.  The  particulars  are  also  given 
in  the  Rich  catalog.    Write  for  it. 

Consult  us  for  shell  plant,  mill  and  factory 
equipment.

SYSTEM 

Save  8  to  20%  of  fuel — and  increase  the 
efficiency  of  your  plant.  The  Morehead 
System  takes  condensation  from  steam 
lines  and  returns  it  to  the  boilers  as  pure, 
HOT  feed  water.  Better  service  from 
steam   lines — actually  increases  efficiency 

of  steam  heated 
machinery. 
M  any  users 
report  that  steam 
heated  equipment 
is  made  to'  pro- 
duce 50%  greater 
volume.  Ask  us 
to  send  literature.

You  have  tried  the  rest.  Now 
use  the  best  for  screw  cutting 
and  threading. 


Our  standard  is  uniformity  at 
all  times  and  a  guarantee  of 
quality  with  every  barrel  of 
oil  produced. 

PRICES  ON  APPLICATION 


The  Right  Heat 

is  the  only  heat  to  woi-k  with  if 
you  are  going  to  turn  out  goo^l 
work. 

An  ordinary  mechanic  can  keep  a 
Gilbert  &  Barker  Furnace  steady 
and  even,  insuring  a  uniform  tem- 
perature. 

G.  &  B.  are  built  right — from  the 
ground  up.  The  built-up  construc- 
tion with  heavy  sheet  metal  is 
reinforced  with  heavy  angle  iron 
straps  riveted  and  bolted.  The 
counterbalanced  door  clears  the 
opening  to  full  height,  admitting 
the  heaviest  charge.  Fire  brick 
chamber  lining,  door  lining  and 
floor  tile  are  of  best  quality. 
And  in  every  G.  &  B.  furnace  you 
get  the  benefit  of  52  years  of  ex- 
perience and  study  with  gaseous 
and  liquid  fuels.  Our  line  includes 
more  than  one  hundred  types  o^ 
furnaces. 

At  present  we  are  making  prompt

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- 
ting 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.

It's   a  "Mecol" 

And  that  word  "Mecol"  stamps 
the  character  of  the  furnace. 
The  best  firms,  the  largest  firms, 
small  concerns  with  the  systems 
and  organization  up  to  highest 
pitch  have  installed  the  "Mecol" 
products.  They  realize  the 
value  to  be  obtained  from  our 
furnaces. 

Illustration  shows  our  Gas 
Fired,  Heat  Treating  Furnace 
with  preheater.  Consult  us  re-

Three  of  the  machines  that  by  their  cost- 
reducing  features  have  established  themselves 
"solid"  with  the  home  users  and  by  these  same 
merits  are  reaching  out  in  foreign  countries. 
A  silent,  but  powerful  message  of  the  Rhodes 
efficiency. 


Their  capacity  is  greatly  promoted  by  the 
adjustments  which  may  easily  and  quickly  be 
attached.  For  shaping,  slottmg,  die  making, 
tool  making,  etc.,  these  machines  stand  para- 
mount. An  inquiry  on  your  stationery  will 
receive   prompt  attention.
