SMOKE CONSUMPTION AT SUNDERLAND.—The Cor-
poration of Sunderland have commenced a crusade against
the smoke nuisance in their borough. After careful experi-
mental inquiries, they have come to the following conclu-
sions :-1. That in all cases, by careful firing alone, the pro-
duction of dense black smoke can be avoided and the quan-
tity of smoke of any kind materially reduced. 2. That
with careful firing, combined with alterations of a simple
and inexpensive kind (chiefly to regulate the admission and
distribution of air) to ordinary furnaces, the quantity of
smoke produced can be reduced to a degree altogether unob-
jectionable, and with considerable economy of fuel. 3.
That by the adoption of Jukes's patent, which renders the
supply of the furnace entirely independent of the fireman,
the most perfect results are obtained; and that the addi-
tional expense incurred by its adoption is, in large works,
returned by the diminished consumption of fuel and
the economy of labour and expense in attending to the fur-
nace. 4. That the consumption of smoke by ordinary river
steamboats and steamtugs is perfectly practicable by
methods similar in principle to those used for land furnaces.
In of these inquiries and experiments, they
have resolved forthwith to compel the manufacturers of the
town to consume their 151:110ke, and are Colladellt of mum
