1.-The work is difficult, however, and
calls for clean-headed management to

usually takes from one to three years

necessitates shaking out the dry rot
which has crept into the establish

material Now Used in Combination
with Steel in the Continuation of
Lofty Smoker cks

One of the latest uses of the COM
bination of steel and concrete for
building purposes was exemplified at
Los Angeles, CAL, few months ago.
An enormous chimney 1.-the, mower
station of a, number of electric roads
was constructed of that material, re-
ports the New York Tribune. The
height of this chimney from the base
(which was Is feet below ground) was
$50 feet. The lower portion was 10.
feet square, outside measurement, but
at an elevation of 81 feet the structure
assumed a cylindrical form and had a
diameter of Is feet two inches.
Because unequal heat ting of various
parts might lead to unequal expansion,
resulting in fractures Tor at least un-
necessary strains), and perhaps for
other reasons also, it was decided to.
adopt a double wall system. The outer
shell begins with thickness Of nine
inches just above the square portion.

finishes with five inches. For the in

quence of, the reduction in both walls:
the space between them increases
with height. It begins with II inches
and ends with 16 inches. For the outer
wall the ingredients of the concrete
were mixed in this proportions: Cali
fornia portland cement, one part;
sand, two parts, and fine broken stone,
four parts. The formula for the inner.
shell was 1926. Perhaps the most
common ratio for concrete is 1855, but
engineers vary it frequently to suit
special conditions. Employing slight
ly different compositions for different
parts of the same work is a practice.
often followed.
In order to give greater strength to
the structure twisted steel bars were
arranged in the concrete, both vertic-
ally and hoizontally, in accordance
with well known patented system.

Danger is by no means an attrac-,

Sometimes he may take risk, but sell

of the climbing party and the POSSIBLE

What he does love is to eliminate bv
