New Form OF Arc Lamp.

A new form of arc lamp has Just
been devised, says the Scientific Amer.
lean, in which carbon disks are used
instead of carbon rods. These disks
are constantly rotated, and the arc
takes place between the peripherIes of
the disks. Owing to the continuous
rotation, the disks are consumed uni.
formly. The lamps are small as
compared to the ordinary type. The
size OF a ten-ahpere lamp is but 20
inches over ALI 1t Is claimed for this
lamp that it will burn 80 per cent.
longer than the rod type.
