And beside^these, it saves much trouble of moving the gas and watchingthe whole time it is being made, and also ensures the purity ofthe gas (, if the nitrate ammonia be pure). With an appa-ratus of this kind and 4 lbs. of nitrate of ammonia 100 gals, ofgas lias been produced, without any attention more than startingand turning out the gas at the end, in 4 hours. KHO Fe.
