. Canadian forest industries July-December 1912. Lumbering; Forests and forestry; Forest products; Wood-pulp industry; Wood-using industries. Log^Haul-up and Mill Pond Wayagamack Sawmill shut down or is not supplying enough fuel. The boilers are fed automatically from horizontal conveyors which empty into the steel troughing and are connected with the furnace feed openings by steel discharge spouts. Each boiler is provided with a "Vulcan" soot cleaner and is connected by a steel smoke breeching to a brick smoke stack 150 ft. high, 72 in. in diameter. Above the boilers, a large header extends across the battery and is fed by steel U-pipe from each boiler. The steam from the header is carried into the engine room by a 10-in. pipe which passes the steam through a large capa- city steam separator before it is fed to the engine. A 6-in. main from the separator carries into the sawmill the steam necessary to operate the steam actuated machinery. In the engine room, which adjoins the boiler house, a "Waterous Heavy Duty Saw Mill Engine" drives directly on the two line shafts of the sawmill proper. This engine has 24-in. x 30-in. cylinder, is equipped with improved rocker valve gear, and carries a fly-wheel pulley 13 ft. 0 in. x 3 ft. 6 in. The engine room also contains a 30-40 engine, which drives the fuel conveyors. This is provided so that the boilers may be supplied with fuel when the mill is shut down and steam is needed in the pulp mill. The sawmill itself is 160 ft. long, 53 ft. wide at its greatest width. It is set back some 36 ft. from the water's edge and it, as. General Interior View—Wayagamack Sawmill.
