There seems TO be practically no
limit to the size Of railway loco
motives. Year after year they
grow larger and more powerful.
The Santa Fe is having built ten
monsters, each having the capac-
ity of about two locomotives of
the standard types now in common
use. Each of the new engineg
will weigh, with tender, 100000
pounds. These very heavy en-
gines are rendered necessary, not
because those now lii use lack the
horse power to pull heavy loads,
but because their driving wheels
cannot get the necessary hold on
the rails to enable them to exert
their full power. Only about a
quarter of an inch, possibly less,
of the surface of the driving wheel
Of a locomotive comes into contact
with the rail. A four-wheeler,
therefore, must do all of its pull
ing on a surface of one inch or
less, and a sIx-wheeler on a sur
face Of an inch and a half. If the
contact surface between wheels
and rails could be doubled, the
capacity of the locomotive would
be vastly increased. Many me-
chanical geniuses have attempted
to solve the problem of giving the
locomotive a better "foot-hold, "
but none has succeeded.

years ago..

the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this

SCOTS Emulsion does more
