Appleton-The Thilmany Pulp
and Paper Company of Kaukauna,
and the Wisconsin Tissue Paper Com
pany of Appleton, according to the
Post, are about TO become pioneers
on this river in the adoption of
a new kind of power-producing APP
plianCe, which will doubtless be rap
idly resorted to by the other mills.
The appliance is the Delayal exhaust
steam turbine. The Thilmany people
have ordered one 300-horse power
and one 75-hOrse power turbine, and
the Wisconsin Tissue Paper Company
one l10-horse power turbine. These
turbines are run by the exhaust
steam from the reciprocating engines.
They take this steam at two pounds
pressure and collapse ii into a vac
uum The astonishing claim is
made-and guaranteed-that these
exhaust steam turbines will dupli-
cate the power of the reciproCating
engines. That is to say, it is pos
sible to hitch a turbine to a 300
horse power reciproCating engine and
get 800 more horse power without
ad litional consumption of live steam.
In other words it is possible to double
the work ordinarily done by the
steamer with a stated amount of
work to be done to cut the power cost
in two.

A Eorse's Toe Nails.

Few persons realize that horse ; hoof is really the same thing as ths toe nails of human beings or Of ani- nals hay ing toes. The horn of ;i heot grows just as a toe nail does. he aoof grows more rapidly in unshod uorses than in those wearing shoes. and it grows faster in horses whic1 are we'll groomed and well fed. But on an average the horn grows about { third of an inch a month. Hind hoofs grow faster than fore hoofs. The toe of the hocf being the longest part, i' takes longer for the horn to grow down there than at the heel. For in stance, the toe will grow entirely down in from eleven to thirteen months while the heel will grow down i'll from three to five months.
