Mill Receives
New Machinery

The Toledo Lumber company this
week received a three hundred
horse power engine, huge planer
that will make anything from the
finest moulding up to handling
timbers twenty inches square, and
a water heater to be used in warm
ing the water before it is turned
into the boilers, thus increasing the
capacity of the boilers to a consid-
cradle extent. With the iustala-
tion of this machinery the capacity
of the mill will be increased some
what as they will now have plenty
of power.
The large engine will be in
stalled on the foundation where the
middle engine now sets and will be
used to pull the machinery in TIE
east end of the mill. the edger,
trimmers. cut-offs and the planers.
The other large engine, which is
now in the mill, will be used to
run the big saws exclusively. The
new planer will require seventy
five horse power to operate it.
The water heater consists of
large jacket filled with coils. The
steam from the engine exhaust
passes through this jacket heating
the coils and the water for the boil
ers coming through these coils is
quite warm or hot, owing to the
amount used, and makes it much
easier to keep the required head Of
steam.
This machinery. it is expected,
will be installed the latter part of
January. In the Spring a new
building will be built back from
the mill for the use Of the light
plant. Another boiler will be in
stalled in it along with the mill en-
gine which is being replaced by
the new one, thus making the plant
separate from the mill altogether
and enabling them to give longer
and better light service. The light
plant also has received small
dynamo which is being installed
this week and will be ready for
operation next week. This ma
chine will furnish lights for tn.
Dime" and will take this much
load off the main dynamo and will
allow them to give the other patrons
a steadier light.
