The corrosive power OF pure wuter on
new or unscaled boilers was well illus
treted in the city OF Glasgow. when u
new water supply was introduced from
Loeb katrine. one Of the p,irest waters
in the world which are available for
city consumption. The former supply
had been poor and calcareous, and old
boilers were much. coated with lime
scale. To the dismay Of the users, those
who had put In rev boilers or new
tubes found them rapidly corroling.
while the old scaled and coated boilers
remained as before; those. too, who had
removed every possible trace Of incrus-
tation from their old boilers by me-
chanical or chemical means. intending
thus to get, us they expected. the full
benefit Of the pure water, were also
badly troubled by corros;on; and even
the old boilers. as the scale was grad
ually removed by the unvarying soft

were taken to prevent II. II was found,
however, in this case. tina. introducing
little lime from time TO time--enough
to give the boilers a slight calcareous
coating-usually prevented the corrosive
