nUR First Glass Engines, Portable and Station
Rrass Valves. The Pumps all have Brass BAH
Valves and Stop Cocks. All the bearings of the
Engines work on Brass or Rabbit metaI-Valye
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 V Rails the
full length of each section Of the Ways. Ali our
engines have q surplus of boiler in proportion to
their cylinders and when properly fred will always
make more steam than the cylinders can 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 nor
liability of engines, never using pound of me-
tai not necessary in their construction and to ia
citate transportation over very rough country, or
bad roads, the bed plate can be detached from the
boiler, carrying with 1t oil the machinery, dividing
the load and reducing the heaviest part to less than
1000 pounds-and this without disturbing any bolt
in the boiler sheets.
