In these days of con-solidations of companies, factories coverimmense areas, and telpher lines are avail-able both within large buildings and also be-tween the various structures no element is more costly in manu-facturing than the employment of humanstrength to the handling of materials. Tel-pherage employs machinery to do the workof men at a minimum of cost with a maxi-mum of speed and efficiency. Modern in-tensified production has produced greatlyincreased demand for prompt handling ofmaterials, owing to the greater output ofmachines and men, and it is in this fieldthat telpherage will be found an meiNEERlNG mw.
