is almost completed after more than
two weeks OF continuous work OF an
expert foreman and a gang Of half a
dozen hands. Owing to limited space

been placed the work has required great
care and skill and has consumed much
more time than would have been neces-

will furnish the motive power for the
entire factory covering almost the
whole OF a city block.
