The tracks run the entire length of the storage bins over the boilers, and the car discharges at any point. From the bins the coal is drawn to automatic stokers. Ihe C. W. Hunt Co. for he not only uses gravity for handling concrete materials, butalso for mixing them. He dumps all his material, either by derricks,belts, or other contrivances, into a hopper which in turn dumps mtcanother, four or five being arranged one over the other, and the wetconcrete comes out of the bottom ready for use. This is a very activecompetitor of the cubical. Smith, and other mixers. Sometimes oneis the cheaper and more thorough mixer and sometimes one of theothers is the best for a given locality. Of course, if the point ofsupply is much higher than the point where the concrete is taken fromthe mixer, the gravity method would have an extra advantage. A concrete plant that
