One of the Large Coating Machines, The pipe is taken to the coating rolls, where the outside surface is coveredwith a thick layer of hot liquid asphaltum, rolled in sawdust on a sawdust table,placed back on the coating rolls to receive another layer of asphaltum and rolledagain in sawdust. This operation gives the pipe a double imperishable coating. The pipe is then trimmed on the ends and cooled on rollers revolving in abath of cold water, after which it is ready for shipment. has been in use for some forty-five years and is still doing good Michigan Pipe Company has sold its pipes all over the countryand even in distant foreign countries. Many other factories making wooden products were included a number of wagon and carriage factories, an oar fac-tory, and hoop factories.
