The Day rf Firing Boilers by Hand is Past Hand firing boilers in most industrial plants is tremendously wasteful. It is almost impossible to get complete combustion by hand firing, and this results in a big percentage of fuelwaste. Besides, hand-fired furnaces require competent operators, which are high-priced andhard to get. Both of these problems—and others, too—are solved completely by the ^lede(|ris^St0 This highly efficient, patented equipment puts an end to wastedfuel by getting the very last unit of heat out of each ton of coal. Itsaves as high as 30% of coal and 80% of labor, in comparison withhand-fired methods. The LACLEDE-CHRISTY STOKER saves fuel because itsdistinctive, patented construction insures completeness of com-bustion. It puts the maximum of generated heat intlw boiler, therebysaving a big percentage of the heat energy that in ordinary furnacesgoes up the chimney! The LACLEDE-CHRISTY STOKER cuts the cost of fuel inanother way: it enables
