THE TRAcKLESS TROLLEY.
Advantages i4 Possesses Over Other
 Means Of Transportation.

RailleSs .electTic traction has attract ed much attentiqn in England lately. Several short transportation lines have beep built on that principle. and some thirty similar schemes are HOW under consideration in various semirural re- gionS. The "trackleSs trolley" used at Leeds and Bradford consists of "buS' similar to the ordinary gasoline stage. except that it's motive power is electricity obtained through trolley from an overhead wire It is said to be much cheaper to operate than d gaso- line bus and where traffic is light has, of course. I similar advantage over the regular train running on tracks be- cause of lower first cost. the entire ex- pense of q special roadbed being elimi- mated.
 The cost of putting up the trolley wires at Leeds was but S6,220 per mile. The forty horsepower buses cost S3,5O0, and it has been found by experience that the complete cost of operation per mile varies from II to 13 cents, In Leeds the fare is cents for four mile journey.
 R. E. Neale. who describes the Leeds and Bradford Installations in the Engi- neering Magazine, says that the track less trolley can make money even where the traffic is thin at fare of from to 1la cents per mile. Appar- ently the trolley bus cannot compete with the tram where traffic is heavy. but if has. according to Mr. Neale q distinct field nf its own in suburban regions and at resorts where heavy de- mands at one season are followed by no passengers at all during the remain der of the year. AIr. Neales figures in- dicate that it is cheaper to operate than the gasoline stage by from one- half a cent to cent per passenger mile.

Automatic Fire Doors.

The construction of fire door and its installation may be standard in every way, but for the door to be of service it must be closed at the time of fire As employees of plant can not always be depended upon to close the doors that may be left open during the operation of the plant, because of panic or other reasons. fire doors should be either self closing or auto matic X self closing door is one which closes by itself as soon as a person has passed through. This door is normally always closed and never should be allowed to be blocked open. The automatic type is held open by means of weight or catch, which has connected with 1t a series of fuslble links. In case of fire the solder on one or more of the fusible links melts from the heat. releases the weight or catch and the door closes automatic. ally. This type of door should be em- rIoyed wherever 1t is necessary for the door to be kept open at times, but otherwise the self closing door Is preferable Engineering Magazine.

 Last year tho total quantity of do- mestic tiuorsnar reported to tine United States geological survey as marketed in the United States was S1,O4S short tons. valued at $Gli.4!7. compared with 6042T short tons valued 1t S.3O.- 19G. in 1910. an increase in quantity of 17.Go1 short tons and in value of S1S1.251.
 FluorSDar is found in crystals. gen. erally cubical. in color ranging from a clear. slightly bluish or green glass like tint throuch various other brilliant colors to dark purple although much of 1t Is white and opaque. Associated with other minerals. fuorspar has q broad distribution. hut deposits of worknh hle size are not abundant. the de- pssits thus far exploited in the United States being found only in the states of Arizona.

 Fiuorspar is used in the manufacture of glass and of enameled and sanitary ware. thp electrolytic refining of anti mony and lead. the production of aluminium and in the iron and steel industries. where it is used as fuy in blast furnaces and in gasic open hearth steel furnaces. It is estimated that about so per cent of the American t1uorSpar output. mainly in the form of ,yroval cnnr c consumed in tho manu- fracture of basic open hearth steel.
