D.* Galvanized Irmi is manufactured in sheet* which are corrugated itt a series of longitudinal waves. These corru gation* serve the purpose of .stiffening and strengthening the sheet :n the direction if the wave, making it possible yet sufficient to support the sheet at wide intervals. They also materially assist in the drainage of water to the eaves of the roof, which occur* so rapidly that the capillary at traction of the edges of the joints is unimportaut, and when corrugated iron is properly laid on a roof, no leak age should occur. Security against leakage may be obtain ed by lapping a sheet over its neighbor fir at least one cor rugation and nailing them together to 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 iron, or rather, the steel body. Galvanization is carried out by first cleaning the surface of the sheet hv immersion in dilute sulphuric acid. This dissolves the thin laver of rust alw a y s present. Then the iron sheets arc immersed in zinc chloride, which forms a flux and effects adhesion of the final coat. After being heated, they are dipped into a bath of molten zinc, and ammonium chloride. The zinc sticks to tl:r sheets, which arc slowly withdrawn, drained and plunged into water. The sudden cooling causes the appearance of the familiar frosted surface due t> sudden crystallization of ihi- metallic zinc. According to Blake*, "the best makes if galvanized iron, which are manufactured from substantial and high class sheer-, and galvanized with a thick deposit of zinc, , can be depended on to last as long as thirty years, under ordinary conditions.*' Naturally in regions mu-Ii as the ueighborhoi-d o f chemical works, where the atmosphere contains large amounts of corrosive gases, the protective zinc coating ipitckly corrodes. leaving the bare irin expos- Teclmtcal Director, fniversal Trade Press Syndicate. ?E.

Galvanized iron, being non-porous. and being applied to the roof in such a manner as to make ventilation thru tlie roof difficult or impossible, ought not be used in cases 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 will inevitably occur 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 ill 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 . may run down' the sides- of the building. This condition, known as sweating, may be materially reduced by placiu? 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 etfect, but eifieent ventilation must be provided by means of windows and ventilators along the ridge. * The method of applying a galvanized iron roof is not Tfr7" difficult nor complicated. The timbering may be vers* lighr. The sheets are fastened to purlins, which are sup ported in suitable positions on the rafrers. spaced at inter vals 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, more quickly. The threads are present only to permit with drawal of the screw without injury to the sheet. Screws are-placed in the enter corrugation and iu outside ones, and always in the ridge, not in the valley, which serves as a small drainage gutter. The outside screws are not driven in until the adjacent sheet has been lapped over. 31a,-h 10-10 Fane IS ____________ A S B E S T O S ---- -- --------- The purlins, (the timbers attached to the rafter to hold the roofing), are ph, d one at top and one at bottom for small sheets. Large sheets require an additional puilm 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 m as simple a design as possible to avoid cutting the sheets. In cases where valleys are necessary a zinc gutter is used, and lor hips, a special shaped sheet is available which is nailed to the purlins at the sides. ... r ,, ,, 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 tlie roofing. Red oxide of iron is to be recommended, and tar is excellent, if its color is unobjectionable. New galvanized sheets are slightly greasy and must . be washed before painting. They may be allowed to weather for some months before painting, when washing will not be necessary. The sheeting is very difficult to cut across the cor- ru-ations and it is quite impossible with shears. A ham mer and chisel are sometimes u>ed. a long and tedious pro cess. One authority recommends the use of an old hand saw as the best method, being more rapid and less trouble- RmeTlie great advantages of galvanized irou roofing are its cheapness and the ease with which a roof of it may be laid. Due to its light weight as compared with other roof- )u<r -he supports for the roof may lie made extremely lig.it. iA s therefore, suitable for buildings of low cost, which will not house human' or animals aud will not have to be artificiallv warmed--in a word, for store houses of non- rerlshable goods. Due to its conduction of heat, the build- in,.* are likelv to be exce-ively cold in winter and xm- *moderated hot in summer. Its use. contrary to general impression, need not be re-tricted to temporary structures, for with care in construe!ion 2nd 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. _ Putje Marik injy ASBESTOS \ E.

Our efforts to trace the source of the rumor men tioned in F ebruary " asbestos" concerning the process of making synthetic asbestos fibres, have, thru the kindness of one of our readers, been successful. On October Sth, 1929, a patent was granted to Morris Grossman of New York City, coverin'* the process of Manufacturin'* Synthetic Mineral Fibres. The patent is numbered 1,730,609, Serial Number 226,522, application for which was filed October 17, 1927. . The process is -described as consisting in boilin'* sodium silicate with a solution of caustic soda under pressure for several hours, concentratin'* the liquid, spinning the sodium silicate into fibre aud 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- abh- 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 also succeeded in locating the patentee Morris Grossman at 140 W. Sotli Street, Xew \o rk City. Natural ly the question which arise are: To what purpose does Mr. Grossman intend to put this process? Has he attempted to do anything with it commercially or does he intend to do so? We may be able to answer these questions next mouth. _ Copv of the patent can be obtained from the U._S. P a te n t Office if 10c (in currency) is sent together with the information in the second paragraph of this article. We hope our readers will study the description of the process aud comment upon it freely. Pao Ji) March J!<20 I ASBESTOS ASBESTO Arizona Crude . Italian Crude Canadian Crude .

The 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. Spark plugs and washers, steel brake cables, spare magneto points and a contact-maker all should be kept on the car ready for use when required. Asbestos w etting' and string, copper wire, low* tension cable, high tension cable insulation ta|M% emery powder and cloth, oil can, paraffin injector, graphite, lubricant, ealciua carbide, a*olinc funnel and strainer, spare rubber hose and clips for cooling system, spare lamps--all these will * 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 efficient 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 list of tools and spares. . And some of u* can very easily remember the time N.> when the list was none too long. The development of distribution channels for auto mobile spare parts, which makes it difficult except in sparsely settled sections to go more than a mile or two without parsing a repair shop, is, when you sit down and consider it, simply amazing. And very possibly this efficient distribution * responsible for snore sales of cars than any other factor with the exception of price.

G. Leaht, F. I. R. I.. An<h:. In>t. X. A.' There is no article perhaps which cau be so damned nr praised as Packing for the reason that failure brings ju its train so many disastrous results, while efficient and dur able Packin': contributes so very much to the satisfactory running of the machinery in which it is fitted. Speaking with Ion? 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 carelessness in treat ment. * . The non-practical buyer looks at the matter 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 sults out of inferior articles. The first cost does not neces sarily meau economy hut on the contrary it ha- been amply proved that a higher but reasonable price that permits the employment of first grade materials has a substantial re- ' flection in maintenance costs, gives infinitely less trouble to 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 in 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 in this connection is tile placing of orders for Packings of well-known Brands. It is a moral certaiuty that makers of high-grade goods must maintain their standard and this gives the necessary safe guard to the buyer and engineer. Treatment is obviously of the greatest importance, as the best Packings can be ruined if incorrectly used. Most manufacturers issue very clear instructions ns to the best S i^ a tru l M anastr.

The addition of another dryer of the American pro fess rotarv type provides sufficient drj ing capacity to handle the crushed rock. Two large rock storage bins have been added, one be tween the primary and secondary crushers, and the other between the tertiary crushers and the mill. The*e two bins provide a sufficient reserve ore to enable the null to keep in constant operation. , .. The mill flow sheet has been completely altered and is now properly equipped to handle a large tonnage of rock and produce high quality clean asbestos fibres ranging *.rom spinning grade to shorts. / The Vermont Asbestos Corporation, financed bv strong private interests in Boston, Massachusetts, lias no funded debt and has never offered shares of its stock to the public.
