Rods jointed. All the joints are surfaced iron
joints, both in the cylinders and pumps. No gum
or packing used on our Engines. Our Mills have
iron Board Rollers, and wrought iron Rails the
full length of each section OF the Ways. All our
engines have a surplus of boiler in proportion to
their cylinders and when properly fred villa always
make more steam than theeylinders ean.use for
they make steam just in proportion to their work
when running light they make less; load them
down and they will constantly blow of at the safe
ty valve.
We also have close eye to the weight and por-
liability of our engines, never using pound of me-
tai not necessary in their construction; and to fa-
eilitate transportation over very rough country, or
bad roads, the bed plate can be detached from the
boiler, carrying with it all the machinery dividing
the lead and sducing the heaviest part TO less than
4GOe pounds-sand this without disturbing any bolt
