voluminous evidence OF the success OF
the idea has been furnished. Then

Although the western cities are de-

that the tank cars will not be able to

How the Burners Work.
There are several methods used in
forcing the oil through the burners tc
the heating chamber or fire box. 1t Is
done by a mechanical process on most
Of the steamships, and by an air and
steam pressure on other plants. The
burners operate much along the same
lines as an atomizing spray. The oil il

They are loaded at the waterfront

at the North and East rivers. The
