CRAMER, Charlotte, N. C. Mill Engineering, Continued. A NOTABLE EXAMPLE. There are many things about mill engineering that can bestbe illustrated by a set of mill plans. It has therefore seemeddesirable and convenient to wind np this section by reductionsfrom a set of working drawings of a mill actually built. I have selected for this illustration the new No. 3 Mill andpower plant of the Highland Park Manufacturing Company,which has just been erected at Charlotte, N. C, and for which -PLOT-NEW NO. 3 MILL POWER HOUSE. HIGHLAND PARK MFG. CO. CHARLOTTE. Key to Plot Shown Above. (i) Power House. (2) Coal Chute. (3) Spur Track. (4) CoalHaulage Tracks. (5) Dam.
