Taking the various smoke offenders
up in order, the problem OF the large
plants becomes especially matter OF
stokers, with proper boiler setting,
proper draft conditions obtained by
damper regulation or control OF fan

ton or IAN speed, Where a plant

some other method OF taking care OF

Another very serious problem In the
large plants is the matter of starting

banked the previous night Where.
plants use steam engines to drive the
fan and stosers, and these engines

Definition Of Smoke.

Smoke, as we all know, is tine
product OF the chimneys. II is COM
posed OF the unburnt products OF
coal mixed with some gases, among
which are water vapor, carbon d.
oxide and sulphur dioXide.
Clouds and fogs are formed by eX-
actly the same processes-the cloud
being an elevated fog, and the fog
being low cloud. When air be-
comes saturated with moisture. some
OF that moisture condenscs and forms
cloud or fog
We distinguish between light haze,
smoke or fog. II smoke or fog OBJ
scures an object 1000 feet away. II
believe that the manner In which
fog or cloud Is formed will throw
some light on the smoke and fog
condition of Salt Lake City. and will
therefore give il IN some detail. 1t
is usually said that fog or cloud is
urated or supersaturated. but this is
not the whole story. To carry the
explanation further we usually go
back 10 the basic work Of John Aiken.
This experimenter was led to line
of inquiry which is very interesting to
the meteorologist. He noticed that
water never froze unless it was cooled
to SO degrees and In contact With
some other Ice particles Also that
water did not boil unless there was
a free surface II tne neateu wafer
were covered with a layer OF oil ii
may be raised far above 212 degrees
Without boiling Reasoning from this,
it occurred to him that steam would
not condense unless there was q free
surface on which TO condense. The
sides OF the vessel containing the
steam would act as free surface
and steam condenses readily ON them.
The experiments showed that con-
densation in the form of cloud took
place very readily when the air con-
tained dust. but that no cloudy con-
densation took place when the. air
was filtered so as 10 be free from

Cloud-Fog Formation.

Cloud is formed by the cooling
which air undergoes when expanding.
II Is cooled below the dew point and
condenses on minute solid particles.
Fog is formed by the cooling OF air
below its dew point, but the cooling
is brought about by radiation or by
the transportation OF air from
warmer TO a colder region.
II no dust existed upon which the
moisture could condense the condition
would be very different from thal
which We know, The moisture would
condense on all exposed objects.
Trees. houses, and so forth would be
dripping with moisture. Our clothes
would soon become saturated and
umbrellas would be useless. Even
raincoats would not avail mucn, as
the moisture would condense on ones
face and flow down inside his collar
And this has actually been observed
in cases where the air was practical
ly free from dust and moisture:
The records OF the United States
weather bureau office at Salt Lake
City show d much greater per cent
ter. In summer il reaches as high
as S3 per cent in July and falls to
IS low as 43 per cent In December
and January. Likewise cloudy and
rainy days are more prevalent in
winter than in summer, and humid
ty follows the same general char
acteristics, the greater relative hu-
midity occurring in winter and the
least in. summer
A tabulation OF the number OF
fogSy and smoky days since the sta
ton was established shows that the
greater number occur in November.
December. January and February, A
period from April TO September, in
elusive. is practically without fog or
smokes as far as the records show

Overfeed StOkers.

On overfeed type stokers this start
Ing up proposition is not so serious,
but still the draft Is greatly impaired
by the chimney having cooled down,
and thus considerable care must he
used in starting up slowly, or else
smoke WILL be emitted.
The problem Of the small plants Is
much more serious, due in great part
to the fact that It Is not the rule to
have q fireman In constant attend
ance; there are numerous instances
where one man takes care OF three
or four, or even six, boiler plants and,
of course. has TO resort to heavy
firing at infrequent intervals. The
remedy is not easy. IF the plant own
ers could be convinced that more
money spent for labor would mean
a considerable saving In coal, large
step would be taken. However, minor
changes In boiler setting. the use OF
steam Jets or auxiliary blowers and a
better schedule for firemen Will ef-
feet much improvement.
II schedules could be arranged so
that one fireman would not have TO
start all OF his boilers at practically
the same time, so that he would de-
vote more time 70 each boiler and
build the fires up more slowly the
worst smoking period OF the day
would be greatly improved.

Problem in Homes.

The problem OF homes and apart
ment buildings is as serious as that
of the smaller downtown plants, The
period OF starting UP fires In the
morning is the most productive OF
smoke and Is the one In which the
most improvement can be made. II
the furnace tenders could be made
to realize that all Of the conditions
required for good combustion are
upset at this period, and further,
that considerable coal is wasted, per-
haps some advance could be made.
The remedy Is the expenditure Of
more time in starting up together
with the use Of klndling, In the
morning the fire remaining from the
previous night Is at a very low ebb,
the chimney Is cold, and the draft
is practically nil. When the furnace
tender dumps three or four big SHOW
els full OF coal on top Of the remain
ing fire he simply makes a distlllery
Of his furnace and great quantities
OF smoke and unconsumed gases
pass up the chimney until such time
as the draft has improved and the
FIRE picked up to sufficient point
to ignite them. The use OF kind
ling to warm the chimney and thus
get the draft started. and the feed
ing Of lump coal in small quantities
over period Of one-half TO three
quarters OF an hour would make a
wonderful change In the smoke con-
dItions In this city, and still permit
the use OF bituminous coal for fuel
purposes.

FOggy Days Lately.

Annlyzing the records for the past
twenty years We find an appreciable
greater number OF foggy days In the
last decade.
II seems then that with the growth
Of the city the foggy days have kept
step with IT, AS smoke gives an
abundant number of particles on
which the wafer yapor In the at
mosphcre can condense, IL IS logical
then to assume that In any city the
foeginess Will increase as the con-
sumption OF coal increases. The con-
densation OF water vapor facilitates
thus aids the formation OF fog. The
following table shows how fogs have
increased with the size OF the city of

and Practical Standpoints.

Society of Engineers The subjects OF

tied Data on the Atmospheric Condi-
tions in Salt Lake Valley and En-
glneer O. w. OFT, who handled the
Possibilities Of Reducing the Smoke
Production in Salt Lake Citv.'
Mr.. Thiessen stated that the obser-
vations on smoke haze and fog have
been tabulatcd since 1891 Unless one
studies and observes the phenomena OF
smoke, haze and fog very carefully, he
will frequently not distinguish be-
tween the two. He said;
Haze is generally supposed to con-
sist OF minute dust particles suspend
ed in the atmosphere. | say gen.
orally, because some have advanced
the theory that haze consists OF con-
densed water vapor on dust near the
earth's surface, but as haze is very
prevalent in autumn, 1t does not
seem probable that condensation can
take place on such a large scale
Haze exists In the upper as well as
In the lower layers OF the atmosphere,
sists OF minute ice particles, and re-
sembleS cirrus cloud, or II is
composed OF dust from meteors or
from volcanoes. The haze near the
earth's surface is proba bly, caused
by the dust OF the earth being blown
about. AS haze is prevalent in au-
tumn, the drying leaves would prob
ably add To The source OF dust
