Burning Coal Dust.

The enterprises of one motorcar
manufacturer extend even to the own
ership of mines in West Virginia,
from which he digs coal for his motor
car factory.
In the plant at River Rouge, Mich,
eight enormous boilers are being in
stalled for furnaces which will burn
pulverized coal and gas simultaneous
ly. This will be accomplished by fir
ing the coal vertically from the top
and injecting the gas horizontally
through the side of the furnace, the
coal flame and gas flame uniting at
the proper point for greatest efficiency
These furnaces will burn 1000 tons
Of coal per day, and from the time
the coal leaves the mines in West Vir-
ginia until it's residue is carried away
as ashes, it will not be touched by HUI
man hands. All requisite operations
will be done mechanically-dum
pulverizing, carrying to bins, stocking,
and even transportation Of the ashes

New Type of OiI-Burner.

A recently developed heavy-oil-
burning engine of only medium high
compression, that is, a semi-Diesel
type, is adapted to uses in Oil fields
and localities where the water con-
tains large quantities Of gritty sub
stances, making it unsafe to inject
into the cylinders, says Popular Me
chanics Magazine. The Diesel design
is adhered to in the new type With the
exception that the excessively high
compression pressures of 400 to 500
pounGs to the square inch are not
used, . start the engine, the mer-
cury is brought to a high heat with a
blowtorch. After starting, the heat
of the compression and combustion
maintains the, temperature. Mercury
is used, for the reason that it is a
fairly good heat insulator and keeps
the bottom of the chamber hot, and
that, though it boils, there is no loss,
as the vapor condenses on the inside
wall of the water acketed top Of the
igniter and returns to the bottom.
