Economy In Smoke Prevention.

After remarking that there can be no
hope of the general adoption of means
to prevent the fouling of the air of
great cities with factory smoke unless
1t can be demonstrated that the adop-

saving Of money to the makers of the
smoke, Prof. J. A. Switzer of the Uni

with smoke consumers based on the
principle of injecting, with steam-je Jets,
