The history of the Automatic
Oil Burner can properly be said
to have begun in 1916.
In 1916 Morgan j. Hammers,
now president and general
manager of Electrol Burner Com
pany and Albert B. Premier
undertook the development OF a
small automatic fuel oil burner
for use in steamer automobiles,
motor boats, and for automotlVe
equipment in the Army.
Their idea was reduced to prac'
tice in the latter part of 1917,
and their machine had the
fundamental principles of control
now represented in automatic oil
burners of today.
Used in Trenches
The first burner was put into
successful operation in a motor
vehicle in December, 1917. About
this time the General Engineer.
ing Company, in which Mr.
Hammers was interested, was
given an order for burners for a
series of high-powered steam
tanks. so built and constructed

ment, none Of the factories we're
allowed to use coal on these
Mondays. Therefore, it was de-
cided that this would be a good
time to try out the heating
capacity of these small burners,
After the heaters we're tried out
in open spaces on concrete floors
they were placed in two large
sectional cast iron boilers. From
that time there were some types
of automatic oil burners in those
boilers continuously. Thus the
automatic oil burner industry
was born.
The first household automatic
oil burner to be installed was in
the home of a Mr.. Ault in Cleve-
land, Ohio, superintendent of the
Paragon Oil Refining Company,
who wished to make certain de-
examinations in regard to the use
of different grades of oil. This
was a temporary installation.
The first regular household
automatic installation for per-
manency was made in the home
of w. C. Knight. of Detroit, Mich,
in the fall of 1918. The Second
automatic burner installed was
in the residence of a Mr.. Philip,
who was sales manager of Dodge
Bros. Motor Co.
The first automatic oil burner
installed in Washington was in
the home of Harry Stevens, TOT
Fifth st. N. w., in February, 1920
At present. according to est
mates by D. R. Bean, of Griffith
Consumers Company, local fue
merchants, there are approximate
~ $4,000 oil burners in metropoll
tan Washington. During the pres
ent year alone, more than 2,OOC

actual size is being built into the
exhibit to show the next step in
show window lighting. For years
the industry has been telling the
story of people crossing the street
to see a properly lighted show
window.
Now the story should include
not only show window lighting
but store front lighting, and it is
expected that both representa-
tives of the industry and build
ers, architects, etc., will be inter
ested in this advance in the art
of commercial lighting.
Facilities also will be provided
in which the actual equipment of
individual manufacturers of other
types of commercial lighting fix

There are to be two models Of

fuel in America. Practically all
boilers there were equipped with
oil burners.
AS far back as 1890, house.
heating on crude, homemade oil
burners was not uncommon in the
oil fields of western Pennsyl-
vania.
Tests Conducted
In 1903 the United States Naval
Liquid Fuel Board conducted a
series of tests with the burners
which were available at that time,
to determine whether or not it
would be advisable to equip vessels
of the United States Navy with
oil-burning equipment. The results
of these tests were so favorable
that the Navy adopted oil fuel
for it's newer vessels and made
many conversions on the older
ones.
In undermining the barracks
and officers quarters at Fort
Baker, California, in 1912, it was
decided to burn oil in all of the
boilers furnishing heat for houses,
barracks and officers quarters,
for cooking and for heating the
domestic water supply. Thirty
seven burners we're installed in
boilers, hot-water heaters and
ranges throughout the post.
The area covered by these
installations was about three
quarters of a mile in length.
These burners, like all others
up to that time, were not auto
matte but had to be manually
liohfed

HISTORY Of OIL
HEAT FRAUGHT
WITH INTEREST

Oil was Known and priced
among the prehistoric peoples.
There are rec ordS of its use for
heat and light by the ancient peo'
Piles of Persia, Asia Minor, China
and the Caspian regions.
In the writings Of the Egyp'
tians, Phoenicians and early Arab
:ans frequent reference is made to
the intensive and comforting heat
where a number of oil lamps were
used to produce light.
Russian Evolved Idea
However, it was hundreds OF
years later that the qualities of
oil as a heat producer were first
practically applied. To mechanic
named Werner, employed in a
Russian refinery, should go the
credit for having first suggested
that refuse oil, which corresponds
to our heavy fuel oil, be burnt as
fuel.
In 1861 he experimental with
numerous devices and finally SET
tied on a continuance consisting
of a les of CRATES, or grlddleS,
over which the oil trickled and
burned. 1t was patented in 1867
and had a wide use.
American inventive genius did
not lag far behind, and in 1862
Shaw and Linton patented a fur
mace in which oil fuel was con-
veyed into the interior in a gas
eouS state. In 1863 the first spray
burner was introduced in America
by Bridges Adams.
III 1865, Ayden, Wise and Field
introduced the first nozzle feeder
in London. However, the honor
of inventing the first really prac-
tai burner rests between Ayden
and his associates and a Russian
named Spakovsky, the latter using
a blast of hot air to atomlze the
oil, whereas the Ayden device en-
ployed superheated steam.
Began in West
Oil heating in this country be-
gan on the West Coast. Being
without commercial deposits of
coal, early industries in California
depended upon coal shipped from
Australia, British Columbia and
the State of washington, while
experiments were being carried on
with the use of oil as fuel. Even
as early as 1888, oil was burned
as a fuel on the Pacific Coast in
heating some of the large hotels
and office buildings.

November saw trade and industry
go forward despite warm weather.
High prices Of tobacco Spurred

trail states. Wholesale trade under
the urge of holiday buying was
good. October export trade value
was the largest in more than three
years.
Drouth effects upon feed crops
were factors in a price rise in
which corn equalled or exceeded
wheat. Engagements of Argentine
corn followed earlier buying of
cats; low grade wheat came from
Canada.
Steel production gained slowly
but steadily against seasonal trends;
scrap metal advanced and the auto
industry expanded. Machinery, tools,
plate glass, wool, rayon and electric
household articles were in fairly
active production. House building
and renovation increased. Cotton
