Enormous Woman Pine Lines.

The water pipes of centuries ago were
made of wood and during recent years
modern methods have caused q revival
of the industry. IN earlier years wood
pipes were made from logs by the slow
and rather uncertain process Of boring.
Such pipes were only used for low
pressure service. Today wooden pipes
are made OF selected slaves. manufac-
tured with mathematical accuracy,
each stave being a perfect segment Of
the whole circle.
Douglas, or Oregon flr, obtained in
oregon and Washington. is the wood
best adapted for the manufacture of
such pipe. this timber, when saturated
with water and protected from outside
influences being practically everlast-
ing, Popular Mechanics for August
describes the methods used in banding
the slaves into pipe. and says:
Nearly 1900 feet OF this type Of
stave pipe 81-2 feet in diameter, has
also been placed In operation to fur
nish water for the turbines OF the cleo
trio plant that furnishes the power to
draw the trains Of the Great Northern
Railroad through its tunnel In the Cas-
power. The maximum head carried by
the pipe Is 1853 feet.
THE wooden pipe for this line was
delivered on special railroad trucks,
and consisted Of sixty-five cars OF
slaves of 100000 feet board measure
The steel bands, Weighing nearly g.
0O0, 900 pounds, were carried by thirty
seven cars. The malleable cast-tron
shoes required for anchoring this enpr-
nous continuous pipe line required five
