OIL BURNER IS
HIGHLY PRAISED

The most severe tests made of the
Hart Oil Burner have shown con-
clusively that it will give guaranteed
service in any home or building to
be heated. The burner is sold by the
Vonnegut Hardware Company, 100
124 E. Washington st.
The Hart burner, which has been
distributed by the Vonnegut Hard
ware Company seven years, is the re-
suit of more than thirty-six years of
experience and it has gained a wide
reputation for service. Indianapolis
homes equipped with this burner
during the present winter have been
kept comfortably warm. throughout
the coolest of days, reports made to
the company have shown.
The burner is listed as STANDARD"
by the Underwriters Laboratories,
Inc. 1t has q unit control feature,
through which each of the various
working parts are automatically CO.
ordinated. This feature makes for
utmost safety in operation.
BY means of a modern atomizing
system the burner burns fuel oils
very satisfactorily. The process of
atomization is accomplished by mix
ing oil and air mechanically under
pressure, passing it through a ven
+uri, which produces a frothy mix
ture, similar to fog, although much
finer. This process breaks up the
fuel oil so that it is thoroughly COM
bustible. 1t brings about complete
carbonization.
No part of the burner is in the
combustion chamber and with auto
matte control safety is secured. The
control features, regulating degrees
of temperature, have been very popu
lar with housewives.
With the simplicity of the burner,
installation can be made in furnace
in five hours without disturbing
household schedules. This factor has
been instrumental in the sale of a
large number of the burners, Off
Gals have reported.

BETTER BUSINESS

Optimism prevails generally
among the contractors Of 1ndianapo-
lis for good year in 1927, accord
ing to o. D. Haskell, president of
the o. D. Haskell Lumber Company,
e. Twenty-Fifth st. and Nickle
Plate Railroad.
No phenomenal development
booms are anticipated in 1927, but
steady, brisk building year is ex-
pected, he said. A normal year to
take care of the increased popula-
ton will prevail, he added.
Lumber prices are expected to
maintain about the same level of
1926, which was slightlS lower than
1925, Haskell declared.
indianapolis is growing briskly,
5000 to 10000 year being added,
and that means continued prosper
ity in the building business. New
homes are being built and the older
homes are being remodeled to meet
demands of new tenants.
sWe may expect also the usual
charges in large types OF old homes,
which will be made over into du-
plexes, small apartment houses or
for other purposes. All OF these
charges call for lumber of various
kinds.
Gas soon as the weather opens
up we may expect a rapid recovery
from the usual winter letdown of
building. Many large contracts are
to be entered upon, along with the
usual demand for homes" he said.
