Conclusion The establishment of this industry as a part of the plant at Chicagorepresents the combined effort of a large number of inventors, engineers,designers, and mechanics. While the actual plant was built within acomparatively short period, the advances which have been made in theart represent several years effort. Briefly, the development of com- CONYENTIONAL MECHANICALAND HANDLING PRACTICE inPROVED MECHANICALAND HANDLING PRACTICE. MieETA ^ 5Q FT Fig. 26—Wire drawing pltint pact and high speed wire drawing machines has required a much smallerinvestment in buildings and equipment as compared with a plant of thesame capacity using commercial equipment. A comparison of therelative floor area, based upon the conv^entional and the improved typesof wire drawing equipment, is illustrated by Fig. 26. The super-visory force in charge of the operation of this new mill must be given aconsiderable share of the credit for its successful operation. Copper Refining, Lawrence Addicks.
