One small walking or travelling hat,

An old fashion reborn as a result Of

this way.

vice in which it is used. 1t is not
reasonable to expect that the entire
loss covered by his item will in time
be overcome. The fuel which is lost
by dropping through CRATES and
mingling with the ashes is a factor
that depends on the CRATE design, on
the characteristics of the fuel, but
CHIEFLY on the degree of care exercis-

fuel thus accounted for.
Locomotives boilers are handi-
capped by the requirement that the
boiler and all it's appurtenances must
come within rigidly defined limits of
space, and by the fact that they are
forced to work at very high rates of
power. Notwithstanding this handi-
cap, the zone of practicable improve

day results and those which may
reasonably be regarded as obtainable
is not so wide as to bake future

COAL COSTS THE RAILROADS
ABOUT $40, 800, 900 YEARLY.
Government Reports 10000, 900
Tons Used i'm 19O6-Problem
Stubborn One.

WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-Ninety
million tons of coal, one-ffth of the
total production of the country, were
consumed by the 81 locomotives in
the United States in 1906 in hauling
freight and passenger trains. This
fuel cost the railroad companies
$170,500,0 600.
This enormous consumption OF
coal by the railroads led the United
States geological survey through its
technologic branch to conduct a
series of tests on a locomotive to de-
termine whether or not there could
be a saving to the country in the
amount of fuel used and the results
have Just been announced in a bull
letin of the survey.
Professor w. F. NJ. Goss, now
dean Of the University of Illinois,
who has charge of the experiments,
makes the statement that of the
total 90, 100000 tons of coal used,
1O,OSO, 900 tons are lost through the
heat in the gases that are discharged
from the stacks of the locomotives;
$4,000 tons are lost through Gin
ders and sparks; 100000 tons are
lost through radiation, leakage of
steam and water; 2,oSS, 600 tons are
lost through unconsumed fuel in the
ashes; and 100000 tons are lost
through the incomplete combustion
of gases. In addition, $4,000, 600
tons are consumed in starting fires,
in moving the locomotive to its train
in backing trains into or out of
sidings, and in keeping the locomo-
tive hot while standing.
Under ideal conditions of opera
tion,' says Professor Goss, much of
the fuel thus used could be served,
and it is reasonable to expect that
the normal progress of evolution in
railroad practice will tend gradually
to bring about some reduction in the
consumption thus accounted for. The
loss represented by the heat of dis
charged gases offers an attractive
field to those who would improve the
efficiency of the boiler. The fuel loss
in the form of cinders passing out
of the stack is very large and may
readily be reduced. A sure road to
Improvement in this direction lies in
an increased CRATE area. Opportuni-
ties for incidental saving are to be
procured by the application of brick
arches and other devices. Such losses
may also be reduced by greater care
