Mr. John J. Thornycroft, an English
authority on steam engines. recently
maintained before the British associa-
ton that road steam engines. by a
slight alteration of the laws. can be so
constructed as 10 be of the highest
value to trade. He affirmed they could
be made TO carry loads of II tons at
four miles an hour. and that with tires
of Is inches width they would not injure
the roads more than horses do. as they
would act as steam rollers. Mr.. Thor
nycroft expressed 10 doubt of the pran-
ticability of his plan and claimed tho
it would work a revolution in agrT~--
ture as it would allow OF the free tr-
mission of lime. manure and heavy tim
Der to points where they might be
needed. The only unsettled pciEt in
the problem is the substitution of some
other material for rubber in the tires,
as rubber costs too much. 1t is be-
lieved. however. that this can be done
by some different treatment of wood.
