H. DELANY (The taking of test data for economy study in steam electric plants is greatly facilitated by the use ofproperly designed log sheets. In this article the authors set forth suggestions for keeping lab on the waterfed to tlie boiler, and the oil to the furnace, together with a general log sheet for the complete illustration is also given for the construction of a graphic log sheet that has proved helpful in fueloil practice. These suggestions are being embodied in a book on the elements of fuel oil and steam engi-neering—a work of
