Trouble-Free Service and Mainte' nance Time Saving Make This a W a r Time Pump The drain on man-power and the need for 3-shift operation day after day call for equipment such as the Amsco-Nagle Centrifugal Pump to minimize replacements and attention. Made in two distinct units, the water end and the bearing stand, the complete assembly has the rigidity and alignment of single unit design and the flexibility of a "tailor-made" pump. Mounting the water end on the hearing stand by means of tubular supports insures the accurate alignment necessary for easy replacement and efficient operation. The bearings are remote from the abrasive or corrosive materials the pump is handling, and no part of the pump structurally important is otherwise exposed to corrosive abuse. The clamp lug method of fastening the side plate in place in the casing affords quick access to internal parts. The impeller is usually screwed on to the shaft even when manganese steel or other materials difficult to machine are employed. Another advantage of the Nagle design is the accessibility of the stuffing
box made possible by the tubular method of assembling. Two corrosionresisting nuts, accessible either from below or above, with abundant room for adjustment, are provided. Pack ing glands are made with precision to insure evenly distributed pressure and accurate adjustment. Water ends can be made of alloys suitable for al most any chemical plant application. Our many years' experience in apply ing impact and abrasion resistant manganese steel and heat and corro sion resistant chromium-nickel alloys, as well as non-ferrous alloys, is of value here. Amsco-Nagle pumps are made in sizes from %." to 1 6 " dis charge, with impellers up to 3 8 " diameter, having capacities to 12,000 gallons per minute, and for heads up to 200 feet. Among the oil refineries, chemical and chemical process factories, rock products plants, sand handling sys tems and other industrial applica tions where our pumps are employed, problems have been solved by these pumps very likely similar to your own.
Right: Clamp lugs permit quick removal of side plate on this Amsco-Nagle 2" type "Τ" horizontal shaft pump. Below:r Note method of mounting unitary wate end on bearing stand by means of lockin-place tubular supports. A type "*/T* 1-1/2" self-priming pump. These design features are characteristic of other Amsco-Nagle Pumps, both hori zontal and vertical shaft types.

VlICTORY JaA -M'nautili &4242&/uztua T k e slow combustion pipette, long familiar to g a s analysts, for t h e oxidation of combustible components b y means of a hot platinum wire, has felt t h e long arm· of research o n catalysis. New catalytic equipment ( p a t e n t s p e n d i n g ) now standard on all Burrell Gas Analysis Apparatus (both V i c t o r y a n d B u i l d up M o d e l s ) d o e s t h e job of the slow combustion pipette faster, safely, a n d m o r e accurately. T h e n e w catalytic method is f a s t e r because of a more simple t e c h n i q u e — safe l^ecause t b e hazard of accidental ex plosions is eliminated— m o r e a c c u r a t e b e c a u s e t h e analyst is relieved of bothersome manipulations. À t u b e containing the catalyst performs a l l of t h e functions of the slow combustion p i p e t t e — oxidizes combustible components such a s hydrocarbons, hydrogen, and carbon monoxide. The reaction products are c a r b o n dioxide and water as with the slow combustion pipette a n d the calculations are identical.

What i s "by-product power?" Well, let's consider conditions which exist in countless process plants. Steam is required for processing or heating with two sources usually available: livo steam from the boiler or exhaust steam from some prime-mover. If live steam from the boiler is used, its power is lost. If exhaust is used, the inherent power in the steam is captured en route. It's really "by-product power."

Under many conditions, the Troy-Engberg Steam Engine fits into this "by-product power" situation better than any other drive. It's "by-product power" at its best, furnishing the necessary steam for processing or heating while at the same> time producing power at the lowest cost . . . often at a cost sufficient to pay for the engine i n a few months, or a year o r two. A n d always, the Troy-Engberg Steam Engine is depend able, flexible, durable and quick-starting. It has high-startinçj torque and ability to handle heavy overloads for long periods.

Misbranding of Livestock and Poultry Remedies INVESTIGATIONS made by t h e Food and Drug Administration show that there are many livestock and poultry remedies on the market with labelings that d o not conform with provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Directions for the use of a drug, should furnish not only information a s to t h e dosage, frequency, and duration of administration of the drug, but also information concerning the purpose for which it i s to b e used. Many veterinary preparations investigated were found to consist of ingredients having entirely dissimilar physiological actions.
Developments in the Steel Industry during 1942
Ruggedness and dependable accuracy, too, distinguish the ALL-METAL THERMOMETER Readability in an indicating thermometer is an outstanding advantage / / full dependence can be placed on each read ing. Thus the WESTON thermometer has been widely adopted throughout the process industries: because it pro vides both these essential factors . . . readability and de pendability . . . without compromise. It's simple, all-metal temperature principle .. . minus gases, liquids, capillary and involved mechanisms . . . assures "on-the-dot" accu racy over a far longer period of time. In addition, this allmetal construction safeguards against failures due to vibra tion or over-ranging. You're more certain of your reading
T P H B abrupt shift from a defense to a war program has wrought many changes in the operation of t h e steel industry. The unprecedented demands for semifinished steel products caused the rehabilitation of existing and t h e addition of many new blast furnaces, open-hearths, coke ovens, blooming, slabbing, plate, structural, and rod mills. T h e production of steel ingots in 1942 was well over 85,000,000 tons—an all-time high record of production. There has been little expansion in the equipment used for finished products, although some cold-strip mills have been built for rolling alloy steels, brass, and aluminum.
. . . with a WESTON.
WESTON all-metal thermometers are supplied in types and diameters for most industrial applications and in stem lengths from 2Vi t o 24". Accuracy, over the entire scale, guaranteed within 1% for the industrial models . . . % of 1% for the laboratory model. Literature gladly sent on re quest, although production facilities are at present devoted solely to the war effort. Weston Electrical Instrument Corporation, 660 Frelinghuysen Avenue, Newark, N. J.
