. Railway and locomotive engineering : a practical journal of railway motive power and rolling stock . vestoker has drawn the attention of anumber of eminent engineers and in-ventors for several years to furnish ap-pliances to meet the requirements of loco-motive service. It might seem at firstglance that if mechanical stokers haveproved eminently successful on stationaryboilers they might readily be adapted to overcome any advantage that a mechanicalstoker possessed. Some of the early experimenters fellinto the error of combining a coal crusherand stoker. It has been clearly demon-strated that the tender of a locomotive isno place for a coal cracker. The coalmust undergo some elemental preparationin order to be adapted for ready use in the details of the preceding appliances.The machine in its new form consistsof a screw conveyor for moving preparedcoal from the tender to the locomotive, an elevator for raising the coal to a pointabove the fire-door, a regulating systemfor delivering the coal to the fire-box, and an adjustable distributing system forspreading the coal over the grate.

The space islimited, the service must have the element•of flexibility as the requirements arevariable. The elements of simplicity andreliability must be assured, and themechanism must also be easy of opera-tion as the use of two much steam inpropelling the mechanism might readily a mechanical stoker. This idea has beenwisely accepted by the Locomotive StokerCompany in the production of their latestimproved stoker known as Type C, as itis the third and decidedly the best type ofstoker that the enterprising company hasproduced. It is the result of seven yearsconstant experimental work, and containsall that has been proved of real merit in the type B machine the small engine driv-ing the appliance had a constant speedwhen in operation of 450 revolutions
