Bya special die construction, the pressmakes a complete washer at each strokeof the ram, insuring the concentricity ofhide with the outer circumference. Itleaves the washer perfectly fiat and withclean-cut edges. The punched washer isthrown out automatically into a box orto a pile by a mechanical hand operatedfrom the slide. The machine is equipped with a pulleyfor belt drive or. when specified, motorbracket and suitable gearing for electricmotor drive and one set of punches and.

POWER FOR STEEL MILLS FROM a report of the central stationpower committee of the Association ofIron and Steel Electrical Engineers,submitted at the recent meeting inChicago, the following has been taken,and for which we are indebted to theIron Age. The rate schedule of 20 power com-panies furnishing power to steel millshas been obtained. To permit compari-sons the net resultant rates for 5000-kw. loads at 50 per cent, loadfactor were calculated, which calcula-tions gave the following results: NET RATKS PER 50 PER FACTOR. Maximum Minimum Average 1000-Uvv. demand 5000-kw. demand 0.«67c The demand, including the effect ofpower factor upon it, is just as import-ant a part of a proper rate schedule asis the energy charge.
