ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES.
PREVENTION OF SCALE IN BOILERS.

This being a matter Of much interest
In this section, and any information on
the subject being acceptable, we give
the following from one Of our scien-
tifc exchanges: A very simple mode
OF preventing boiler incrustation Is in
general use at Darmstadt Gas Works.
The engine has worked night and day
since 1884, almost without Interrupt
ton, and the formation Of calcareous
deposits has been prevented by the use
Of crude pyroligneous acid, combined
with tar; 1t Is either introduced into
the boiler or mixed with the feed wa
ter. Since the mixture has been in use
they have never had to use a hammer
to remove scale. Each year during
the summer, when less gas Is required,
the boiler Is opened, and perhaps a
couple Of handfuls Of loose sediment
taken from the bottom. The quantity
employed Is very small-iust enough
to redden litmus paper consequently
the iron II not attacked, as indeed Is
apparent from the fact that the boiler
has been but twice under repair.
