Journal Box Packing Support. Editor: The Pittsburg, Shawmut & NorthernRailroad has had the waste supporting Too Much Beef. I have often thought, said Chordal,that unnecessary screwing of certainbolts is a fair test of a mechanics in-telligence. I once got up the drawing fora planer to plane 5 or 6 ft. square and25 to 30 ft. long. As a tool-holding ar-rangement I put in the usual two clampswith four good, big screws. The manwho ran this planer broke a bolt a made new ones of every kind of ironand every kind of steel, but still theybroke. A planer right alongside of thisone doing exactly the same kind of work,using the same tools, making the samecuts on the same pieces, but run by. \V.\STE CARRIER FORjournal box attachment, devised by me,under test for some time past, and I maysay it has given excellent service. Theconstruction is very simple, requiringonly a small quantity of sheet steel, 1-16in. thick. I find that the device takes care of anumber of conditions that railroad peoplehave been trying to overcome for quite awhile. In the first place it saves gives practically no trouble either tothe inspector or to the repair men on ac-count of it being applied or removedwithout disturbing the brass or gives the inspector a better opportunityto inspect the journals for roughness on TOURN.\L BOXES,another man, never broke a tool bolt, not- New Valve Gear. The subject of valve gearing isthat has engaged the attention ofbrightest minds among railway men,we observe among the devices recentlypatented an ingenious invention by L. Bowen, McComb City
