SCHOOL, STEAM ENGINE-It
HELPS Possible posse %''Sf" AS'"'P



steam engine was in the waterfalls
ing engine Of Thomas Slavery in 1898.
In this the steam acted directly on
the water to be raised. The first s
OF the piston was by Papin in 1905
in a modification Of Savery's engine.
In the same year Newcomer made
a piston engine which more nearly
approached our modern form. 1t was.
as its name implied, an atmospheric
engine. The piston. working in a
cylinder, was connected by a chain
with one end OF an overhead beam.
Steam admitted from the boiler to
the cylinder allowed the piston to be
raised by a heavy counterpoise hung
from the other end of the beam.
Then the valve was shut and the
steam in the cylinder condensed by
a jet of cold water. This left a vac.
uum in the cylinder and the piston
was forced down by the pressure
or the atmosphere. and the work
Yves done by lifting a pump-rod
which was fastened to the other end
OF the beam. The common story is
that a lazy, ingenious boy named
Humphrey Potter, who had been set
to turn the valve, made the engine
close and open its own velves by
means OF cords, and thus invented
the first automatic valve gear.

piston had made only a part Of its

pansion of the steam already in the

in conjunction with Murdoch, the
slide valve for controlling the ad.
mission and release OF steam. He
also patented the use OF two or more
successive cylinders on one engine,
or the modern compound engine
plan, which is used in large engines
where economy of fuel is important.
Watts inventive career extended
over a half century.

FACTORIES SHOW
TRIPLE INCREASE
Gain in Ten Years in State
Cited by Report.
BIZ Times Special

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-Value
of Indiana's manufacturers almost
tripled in ten years, according to a
report of the Department of Com
of the industrial census of The
United States taken in 1923.
In that year Indiana factories put
out goods worth slightly more than
two billion dollars, against a produc-
ton of $3.50, 600, 900 in 1914, before
the war. The exact 1923 figure was
100000, 900.
There were 291.131 workers in the
factories and industrial establish
ments in 1923, who made $374,509,-
900 in wages. In 1914 there were
1877 ,503 workers, who made only
$119, 258. 900, showing that the wage
average has more thar doubled from
about $500 in 1914 to about $1,000 in
1923.
The number of factories. however,
had decreased, from S,022 to 1909.
This centralizing tendence is shown
all over the whole United , States,
which had only 1860 factories in
1923, against 275,791 in 1914.

BOOSTS GRAIN
Domestic Factors Also Enter
Into Rise.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO. Jan. 27.-Foreign and
domestic factors combined to boost
grain prices at the opening OF the
Chicago Board of Trade today.
The Liverpool wheat market was
higher and Buenos Aires scored an
advance of Il cent at the opening.
Seaboard advices indicated a better
tone to cables with an improving de-
mand. To these factors was added a
growing sentiment among local
traders that the domestic situation
is becoming more and more bulEsh.
especially in view OF the increased
demand for wheat from the milling
interests.
Light corn receipts and reports
that farmers were becoming re-
luctant to sell their stocks gave this
grain some independent strength and
prices were f~ractionally higher.
Oats prices responded slightly to
the upswing in wheat.
Provisions opened steady with a
weak undertone.
