OLD SMOKESTACKS.
An Article For Which There Is Always a
Demand.

Among the very great variety of
things that may be bought at second
hand are smokestacks Of iron or Of
steel 1t may be that an establishment
puts in a bigger boiler and wants big
ger stack. If it is using a steel or an
iron stack, the old one Is taken down
carefully and new one set up. The old
stack may be sold to a dealer in second
hand boilers and machinery, or the
owner may keep it and sell it himself
to somebody that wants a secondhand
smokestack. If it is sold to a dealer, he
may remove it to his own yard, or 1t
may be that the original owner keeps 1t
on his premises until the dealer has
sold it. A manufacturer may move from
one place TO another and sell the old
plant, or parts of it. Here would be a
secondhand smOkestack. Secondhand
stacks are bought by various users. 1t
may be that the smokestack Of an estab-
lishment is worn out and that the boiler
Is not and that a secondhand stack
would last out the life of the boiler. In
such a case the user would get a second
hand stack if he could find one suitable.
Secondhand stacks may be used with
various temporary plants set up by con-
tractors and others. A smokestack may
be blown down in a windstorm and the
user supply the place Of it with one
bought secondhand.
A steel or iron stack costs about half
as much as brick stack. \ secondhand
iron stack costs about half as much as a
new one. Stacks Of metal are made now
usually of steel The steel used costs
now less than wrought iron. There is
an increasing use of steel instead Of
brick stacks Steel stacks up to and
feet in diameter would be classed as
portable stacks; larger stacks would be
of more or less permanent character.
Steel smokestaCks are now made up 20
Is feet in diameter. Very large smoke
stacks may be lined with brick.
Secondhand smokestacks up to 2 feet
in diameter are likely to be found IN
stock in the yard Of the dealer in second
hand boilers and machinery. and he is
likely to have stacks Of larger sizes else
where. There is always a demand for
secondhand smokestaCks. New York
