These corrugariotis serve tlic purpose of stiffening and strengthening the sheet in the direct inn of the wave, making it possible vrt sufficient tn support the sheet at wide intervals. They also materially assist in the drainage of water to tlic eaves of the roof, which occurs so rapidly that the capillary at traction of the edge* of the joints is unimportant, aud when corrugated iron i> properly laid on a rof. no leak age should occur. Security against leakage may be obtain ed by lapping a sheet over its neighbor fur at least one cor rugation anti nailing them together tn a purlin. The sheets are galvanized after being stamped into shape, that is. they are covered with a thin layer of zinc, which metal is much more resistant to weathering than the irag, or rather, the steel body. Galvanization is carried out by 5pt cleaning the surface of tlie sheet by immersion in dilute sulphuric acid. This dissolves the thin layer of n:t: always present. Then the iron sheets are immersed in zinc chloride, which forms a flux and effects adhesion of the f.r.al vowt. After being heated, they are dipped into x bath of molten zinc, and ammonium chloride.

Galvanized iron, being non-porous. and being applied to the roof in such a wanner as to make ventilation thru {lie roof difficult or impossible. ought not le used in eases where much moisture is likely to evaporate into the air inside the building, as. for example, in housing live stock. The reason for this lies in the fact that condensation of _ water vapor trill inevitably ocenr on the under side of the ' roof. This condensation occurs because of the fact that the absolute humidity, the actual percentage of moisture in the air, is always higher inside a building inhabited by human beings than outside. .The amount of moisture in the interior is further increased by the fact that the inside temperature is invariably higher, and the air will hold more water vapor without becoming saturated. If the under side of the iron roofing is exposed, drops of water will condense thereon, due to the lower temperature, and . say run down the sides- of the building. This coiulitiou, known as siveatirg. may be materially reduced by placing rough boards on the roof immediately beneath the sheet metal, the boards acting as an insulator. Plastering the underside of the roof timbers will have the same erfect, but eifivrut ventilation must be provided by means of windows and ventilators along the ridge. The method of applying a galvanized iron roof is not 'cry difficult nor complicated. The timbering may be very lighr. The sheers are fastened to purlins, which are sup ported :n suitable positions on the rafters, spaced at iutervali of 6 or S feet. The sheets are nailed to the timbers with galvanized nails or screws, using galvanized washers under the head of the nail, to prevent leakage thru the hole. The screws are not twisted in place with a screw driver, as might be expected, but are hammered into place, core quickly. The threads are present only to permit with drawal of the screw without injury to the sheet. Screws *re-placed in the Center corrugation and hi outside ones, end always in the ridge, not iu the valley, which serves as a small drainage gutter. The outside screws are not dviveu in until the adjacent sheet has been lapped over. ifO'-.h 10-10 Pa'jt IS ------------- ------- ASBESTOS ------------------- The purlins. (the timbers attached to the rafter to hold the rootin':), are pla* -.1 one at top and one at bottom for small sheets. La rye sheets require an additional purlin in the center. The end lap for an average roof .should be at least 3 inches, for flatter roofs it should be more. Galvanized iron roofs are usually made in as simple a design as possible to avoid cutting the sheets. In cases where valleys are necessary a line putter is used, and for hips, a special shaped sheet is available which is nailed to the purlins at the sides. Painting the surface of galvanized iron roofing in creases the life of the roof considerably. Care must be ex ercised in selecting the pigment. as some of them, such as lead, will react with the zinc when wet and soon destroy the roofing. Red oxide of iron is to be recommended, and tar is excelleat, if its color is unobjectionable. 2^ew galvanized sheets are slightly preasy and must be washed before paintinp. They may be allowed to weather for some months before painting, when washing will not b necessary. The sheeting is very difficult to cut across the cor rugations ar.d it is quite impossible with shears. A ham mer and chisel are sometimes u*ed. a lonp and tedious pro cess. One authority recommends the use of an old hand saw as the best method, being more rapid and less trouble some. The preat advantapes of galvanized iron roofing are its cheapness- and the rn-.e with which a roof of it may be laid. Due to. its light weight as compared with other roof ing the supports for the roof may he made extremely light. It is, therefore, suitable for buildings of low cost, which will not house human' or animals and will not have to be artiacially warmed--in a word, for store houses of non- perishable poods. Due to its conduction of heat, the build ings are likely to be excf'-ivtly cold in winter and im- * moderately hot in summer. Its '*. contrary to general impression, need not be re-1 rioted to temporary structures, for with care iu construction and maintenance, the build ings can be made to la*t many years. The use of galvanized iron is, of course, purely utilitarian: from the esthetic standpoint there is nothing to recommend it. Pune J.J 1M') * * I1" # * f . ( ) sfcir; ASBESTOS %F'# E.

Our efforts to trace the source of the ru:aor men tioned in February "asbestos" concerning the process of making synthetic asbestos Sires, have, thru the kindness of one of our readers, been successful. On October S:h, 2223, a patent was granted to Morris Grossman of New York City, covering the process of Manufacturing Synthetic Mineral Fibres. The patent is numbered 1,720.609, Serial Number 225,322, application for which was filed October 17, 1927. The process is -described as consisting in boiling sodium silicate srith a solution of canstie soda under 'pressure for several hours, concentrating the liquid, spinning the sodium silicate into fibre and thereafter passing the fibre thru a hardening bath containing a solu tion of calcium chloride. The patent states "The pro duct of this process is adapted to replace asbestos in the industrial arts." We have discussed this process with engineers and others in the asbestos industry, and so far the concensus of opinion is that while asbestos fibres could quite prob ably be produced by the process described, the cost of equipment, etc., would be so high as to make it not prac ticable commercially. We have aim succeeded in locating the patentee^Morris Groisman at 1-J0 W. SS:h Street, New York City. Natural ly the question which arise are: To what purpose does Mr. Grossman intend to put this process f Has he attempted to do anything with it commercially or dues he intend to jio so! We may be able to answer the-se questions next mouth. Copy of the patent can be obtained from the U. S. Patent^ Office if 10c (in currency) is sent together with the information in the secoud paragraph of tills article. We hope our readers will study the description of tbt process and comment upon it freely.

We were vastly amust-il not Ion; ago in reading an article which ptntrd from a manual put out in 1010 by our of the leading automobile manufacturers at that tine, this giving a list or spare parts which the manufacturer deemed necessary for motorists to carry with them when drivin; one of his cars. *11)0 list ran like this: A set of valves, springs, cotters and piston rings for the engine and a spring and leather for the clutch are necessary. Jr park plugs aud washers, steel brake cables, spare magneto points and a contact-maker all should be kept on rite etir ready for use when required. Asbestos sheeting aud string, copper wire, low tension cable, hi;h tension cable insulation tain*, emery powder and cloth, oil can, parafhn injector, graphite, lubricant, calcium carbide, gasoline funnel and strainer, spare rubber hose 'and clips for cooling system, spare lamps--all these trill be required at one time or another, and it is better to carry a good supply than find yourself delayed for sev eral hours while trying to procure a fairly emcicut sub stitute. A complete tire repair outfit, two inner tubes with valves, one pressure gauge, tire irons, jack, tire pump and compound for repairing punctures and cuts complete the like of tools and spares. .. And some of u.\ can very easily remember the time when the list was none too long. The development of distribution channels for auto mobile spare parts, which makes it ditnciilt except in sparsely .settled sections to go more than a mile or two without pacing a repair shop, is, when you sit down and consider it, simply amazing. And very possibly this efEcirnt distribution is responsible for more sales of cars than any other factor with the exception of price. _ Motoring would not sippent nexrly so much to the ladies of our generation if they were obliged to do their own repair work along the road--nor to a great many lueti either, we Venture to say. We notice one omission from the list, however. Didn't tin- motorists of 11' 10 ever run out of gas? Fu<jr / * < O r V ^ .

A.' There i< no article perhaps which can be so damned nr praised as Packing for the reason that failure bring* iu it> train so many disastrous results, while efficient and dur able Pat-kin- contributes so very much to the satisfactory running of the machinery in which it is fitted. Speaking with long and intimate knowledge of the manufacturing and administrative side. I have no hesita tion in stating that the majority of bad results are due primarily to two main causes. First the lack of practical knowledge by buyers and secondly earrlrvoievt in treat ment. . The nnn-practical buyer looks at the nutter almost entirely from a price basis and so by adopting that attitude brings his circle of suppliers down to the employment of cheap material and low prices, with an immediate handicap to the Engineer who will naturally fail to get the best re sult* out of inferior articles. The first co*t does not neces sarily mean economy hut on the contrary it has been amply proved that a higher but reasonable price that permits the employment of first grade materials has a substantial re- ` flection iu maintenance costs, gives infinitely less trouble t the Engineer and so saves labor expense: and by that extra durability and efficiency, which can generally be ex pected from high grade specialties, actually results iu diminished expense. The proof that this statement is correct is the fact that where buyers are converted to this doctrine, it is rarely that the purchase of cheap and inferior Packings is reverted to. One important point iu this connection is the placing of orders for Packings of well-kuowu Brands. It is a moral certainty that makers of high-grade goods ohm maintain their standard and this gives the necessary safe guard to the buyer and engineer. Treatment is obviously of the greate-t importance, as the best Packings can he ruined if incorrectly Used. M>sl > manufacturers issue very clear instruction* ns to the best Jlaiijsvy.

As an illustration I would mention the frequent alarm of the Junior Engineer when he sees St earn Packing blowing when steam is raised and which often results iu his getting `Spauuer Fever" ud the Packiug being screwed up so hard as to entirely destroy its elasticity. Such is, of course, radically wrong treatment, as it will'be found that in al most every iustauce. the maker requests that the Packing when first fitted shall be screwed up hard so av to insure cnrevt fit. and then the Glaud slacked back until just feel ing the Packing, which means that under steam the Pack ing has the essential opportunity for expansion. Brake Lining Should Contain Asbestos * By W. T. P.vt.nra. Mgr.. Bussell Mfg. Co., Middletown, Conn. . Due to the excessive heats developed in bringing au automobile to a stop, brake linings must be of such a com position that they will not break down or burn up under these high temperatures. When a vehicle weighing, say 3.000 pounds, is brought to a stop from a speed of 50 miles per hour in approximate ly 4 seconds, as it is quite possible to do with the present four-wheel brakes, there is about 450.000 foot lbs. of kinetic energy to be converted into heat that has to be absorbed, or dissipated. thru the brake lining and brake drums. The average brake drum wearing surface on cars of such weight is only about HUO square iuches. If many quick stops like this are made in a short time, it can readily be . seen that this surface ean not possibly dissipate such an enormous amount of heat and as a result the brake drams would >oon he red hot. Many times, when driving in heavy tranic or in hilly counrry. the brake drums are often at a temperature of :j00* Fahrenheit :r considerable periods of time.

Insulating Radiation Bv H. C. Chari.cj I was tramping thru the heat treating department of X larpe automobile manufacturing establishment one day when I noticed that the radiant heat .thrown otf by some furnaces each time the ilnor was opened was directed to ward the temperature recorders. The recorders were located just to one side of the furnace door and I was curious to know why this radiant heat did not affect the recorders. The revurd-rs are sus ceptible to radiant heat and will not read correctly tinder such conditions. In this instance, however, 1 found that ample precaution had been taken as the hack of the re corder had been covered with a ptar:er inch layer of as- bespts. To prevent the rapid deterioration of the asbestos a sheet of metal had been placed over it and tin* tliru bolts were insulated from the sheet metal by the u-e of asbestos washers. In this -manner the instruments were retained Hear the furnace where the operators could keep in close tom-h with the temperature conditions of the furnace and contents. 1 was informed that prior to moving the instruments li**ar tit** furnace, considerable spoiled material had result ed from iimde<piate supervision of temperature. To keep tin- instruments at a distaiier from tie- furnace resulted in indifference in watchiuj* the temperature indicators. 1' i i ......... ..........ASBESTOS -------------------- The Vermont Asbestos Corpora tion Reports Progress The Vermont Aslwstos (."orjur.itson announces the ap pointment of William A. -lanitsch as Manager ami L.

The minds of our great Industrial executives were turned to and employed Iri devising ways and means of lncreas* In; their personal or their cornorate profits thru the "market" rather than thru the more efficient runniog of their own business. While these captains of Industry were pouring their millions Into Wan Street for a quick, but temporary broflt. they too were allowing waste to flow thru their power plants for a very definite loes of operation-profit. Reports show the coal business to be much Improved. As has oftep been said recently--"Businesses were rsnnlne themselves"-- everybody from the Chairman of the 2nsrd. to the night watchman was "In the market" Now these same executives and captains of Industry, by beer necessity, are returning to thnr work, and surely they will find the weeds of neglect much harder to control. People reallre to a crest extent that the market was not thrir Joh. and the bit terness of sseculatlon-Ioss makes the prospect of operation profit werier. Business is looking now for ways and means of employln; Its money In sure and continuous profit-making Invest ments. and for ways to recover their losses or to continue their profits This forced situation opens up a splendid acd unusual op portunity for Insolation.

Commiitioner of the Uibrtiot Brake Lining Anociafion The Asbestos Brake Using Association his hid Its attention called to complaints received over the failure of brake linings due to oil and Irene leaksce out of the beinogs on to the drums. This Is particularly noticeable with the Tist nusber of Intersil brake shoes sotr employed. xad It naturally follows that with oil on the llaing *-change la brake action Is frequently experienced. The beat of friction win bum oil or crease to a bard carbon, thut forming a g'.ate. When the oil la drat apalied. It will re duce the friction almost to zero. It may also cause a elate to form, and later. If the brakes become wet. they will sot hold well unless the pressure Is sufficient to force the water from between the friction surfaces. They then lend to crab, to some cases this also causes sweilin; of the material, which also mar result In brakes graphing. When a fabric lining once becomes cohered with oil or Crease. It Is did.cull to obtain equalisation of the brakes. Id most cases it la advisable then to replace the lining aud prevent future occurrence of the crease leakier. U Is almost Impossible to remove alt traces of-the crease, even with careful cleanin; by casoltae. as it becomes entrapped In the spaces between the yam. All service stations aad garage men dome brake rellaing. adjusting work, should examine the felt oil retaining washers lor teaknee of crease from the axle, and If necessary, replace. The Asbestos Brake Llniuc Association recommends to all cerrtce station; performing brake work that It give particular attention to this subject: It will not only prevent Increased costs of free adjustments, but mar also help solve tbe problem nf why brakes with certain linings do not hold properly.

Still, frequency of ends is a point of judgment. Wc know of one salesman, an exceptionally aide man. who de liberately makes few calls on some of his very best cus tomers.
