WHAT IT'S

1
and wooden core within the inner
cylinder. The OGDEN core is made of
section of qnartered oak, placed loose
ly on pins on "a shaft, SO that they can
be revolved. The cylinder in which the
core is placed is 1s inches in circum
ference and 36 inches long. Around
4 this is jacket of three inches of water
Ilheld in the outside cylinder which is
covered with asbestos to contain the
Il heat. The inner cylinder is left rough
after boring, The wooden core, also
is not smoothed. 1t is revolved on the
shaft inside the cyilader. The result
is that the water is turned into steam.
At speed of 600 revolutions a minute
in the SO inch cylinder, ten pounds of
steam is generated every three min
utes. This rate keeps up to the cap
acity OF all the machines which have
been tested. The steam has temper
ature of 324 degrees and is absolutely
dry. 1t melts lead aud carbonizes wood,
bat it does not burn the wood on the
inside of the cylinder. Paper can be
placed on the inside of the cylinder
with the wooden core and taken un |
changed after the machine has run all
day. One core has been used iE a ma
chine at the plant for three years, and
the wear on it is hardly perceptible. 1t
s seems that the machine will last in.
Il definitely.
The quality of the steam is the same
as that which is obtained ty passing
steam from Ordinary boilers through
red hot pipes. 1t is superheated. This
is the kind of steam that is used in
1 packing houses for rendering lard and
to refne the, various products. q
The machine is made in another
style for heating buildings. The prin.
/ c.pls is the same, but the cylinders are
| 8 naller and the water is not placed
I around the inner cylinder in the same
/ manner. A wicking arrangement is US
. ed and the water fed in as it is used.
The machine is driven by electric
power if handy and adapted to that
:. which may be obtained from sixteen
J candle. power electric. light. In this
tmachine& one pint of water will make
s16 gallons of superheated steam.
We understand that the first demon.
stration made will be of the machine
as a heater and its advantages over
any known method heretofore used
both as to cost and also as to clean.
Id liness and convenience. Here is what
is claimed for it by the inventor and
also what in a number of proofs as
II we'll as in several years practical test
in buildings has been successfully
proved:
With natural gas water, electricity
Is or other power as motive power
we can he It an eight room house at
~ an expense of 26 cents day. This is
J. demonstrated daily at the factory:

~ machine can with the power from an
incandescent lamp o. 16 C. p. generate
sufficient heat for an room residence
r. or at the same cost that it takes to run
\ an electric fan; while as to cleanliness
!, there is no smoke, no SCOT or chimneys,
no ungainly stoves or furnaces, no
handling of wood or coal, no tending
to fires, or getting up at midnight to
prevent the house getting cold or heat
"a ing all out doors for II esale of heat.

Ill is to turn. on, the current and the heat
Is is there as long as the machine is
al rnnning while the instant the desire
for the use is past, the currant is cut

x cost it is such tremendous saving
~ that it takes ones breath. 1t means

IT. shortly remove to Spokane where he

III Of its uses and ptacticability not only

OIL and to this end he intends to DISPOSE

Is possible SO he can move into his new
