Where the lines separate, the teeth are clear of each other, h; where the lines cross or coin-cide there will be double driving contact be-tween the teeth, k; and where ono line passes inside the other after crossing it, there will be an interference, in, unless avoided by trunca-tion.  The crossing point of the two secondary lines of contact will determine the maximum at allowable on each gear face. When, as is always possible by choosing the proper odontoids, the two secondaries coincide completely, or over any desired dis-tance, there will be double contact. In all such cases we have D' C' ----- a b, or the sum of the diameters of the lines of contact must be equal to the difference of the pitch (1iame-ters.

The properties of the odontoid can gen-erally be more easily developed and clearly explained if it is considered as a special case of the enveloping curve, than if it is treated as a rolled curve, while, for practical pur-poses, the conjugator, founded on the normal theory, has the advantage of any device that is founded on the rolled curve theory. fig. 23  
SPECIA CASES, THE SEGMENT AND CYCLOID, In another paper I purpose to explain the application of the normal theory to the seg-ment, the involute form of the segment, the cycloid, and special forms of the odontoid. Machine for Turning Irregu-lar Shapes. 
We illustrate with this a new machine for turning ornamental square legs for chairs, tables, lounges, stair balusters, etc., etc. ; it will cut, it is said, plinth blocks or any irregular shapes across the grain of either hard or soft wood sufficiently smooth to admit of their being finished without sand-paper. The ar-rangement of knives is such that one set of six knives may be so placed on the cylinder that they will produce an en-tirely di fferent, pattern or style of work, and with two Nolti 
place under constant pressure. Combustible gas and fresh air are drawn in during a por-tion only of the stroke of the pistons of the gas cylinders. These cylinders thus perform the function of suction bellows by drawing in air for the supply of the cupola. Taps and valves regulate the access and proportions of the two descriptions of gas. The mixture is effected at low temperature, in conduits ar-ranged for the purpose, and ignition is pro-duced by known processes. The volumes of the gas and steam cylinders are arranged in accordance with the expenditure of the two fluids. Nevertheless, the steam cylinders ought to be of themselves, powerful enough to start the whole machine. The high tem-perature produced in the gas cylinder by direct combustion would be a cause 'f speedy destruction of the machine, if the wh,)ls were not maintained at a very low relative tempera-ture. This low temperature would be an energetic cause of cooling in the gases, if it could not, bo met by other arrangements. But there will al ways be only a very slight drawback from direct, utilization, if the heat thus dissipated gives return in producing steam. The gas cylinders, as well as their frames, will therefore be surrounded by water, and placed, by means of their exterior surfaces, in communication with the boiler in such a way as to insure the circulation of the water and the creation of steam, The eleva-tion of temperature, even if very great, would pansion. The dispersive power of gases, so favorable to the use of boiler tubes, is evi-dently, on the contrary, an obstacle to the utilization of elastic force developed in the gaseous mass. Now, we have seen that in the case of boiler tubes, the efficiency—that is to say, the heat transmitted--was proportional to the diameter of the tubes. The loss would, therefore, be in inverse ratio to the diameter in the case of cylinders. But this is only ap-plicable to cylinders of very small diameter, and the loss decreases, in reality, in a more rapid proportion than the diameter increases. Therefore, an arrangement which, for a given consumption of gas, will give cylinders of the greatest diameter will be that with which the greatest direct utilization of heat will cor-respond in this respect. We equally conclude from this that, as far as possible, we must only employ one gas cylinder in each separate machine. But dispersion depends also upon time. Cooling, then, will be as much greater, other things being equal, as the working pace is slower. Now, a more rapid working pace seems to imply, as a consequence, cylinders of a smaller volume ; but this contradiction disappears when one reflects that the length of stroke is not necessarily related in an in-variable manner to the cylinder volume for a given expenditure. In like manner as for the elastic force of steam, the utilization of the elastic force of gases requires that the ex-pansion should be the most prolonged pos-sible. In the arrangement above described, there is a maximum of expansion for each particular case. Thus the effect is necessarily limited. The advantage, therefore, rests with an arrangement which will permit of giving back to the machine that which we may call the free play of the expansion—that is, the power of expanding so far as we may think it convenient within the limits only imposed by the nature of things. Finally, the utilization of the elastic force of gases still depends on one element which is entirely their own, but which is, at bottom, intimately connected with the utility of prolonged expansion. This element is compression, which should be the greatest possible for the greatest effect. It can be easily seen that we are dealing hero with -heated axpansion obtained after cold compression, which is a way of prolonging the esion ill some sort inverse to that Nvilieh consists in causing it vacuum H. way ----------

the amount of heat produced by friction in the same length of time, which must be .con-ducted away by the materials of the journal and bearing. It then follows that with any proportion of bearing surface, and other conditions the same, a speed may be reached at which it will be impossible to operate even the most per-fectly fitted and lubricated journal, without providing additional means of conducting away the hit. One of the first considerations in a high-speed bearing would be to provide as good a conducting material as circumstances will permit, and then let the amount of bearing surface be proportioned to the work of fric-tion in foot pounds per minute. In propor-tioning a crank-pin for high-speed engines, it seems to me important that the above facts be fully considered, and if they are it follows that Mr. Hoffman's proportions are of very limited application to high-speed engines. He also says, in speaking of engine main bearings, " Of course large and long bearings under high speeds, are the most unreliable." I do not think it fair to take this sentence to express fully his mature views in that matter, but I cannot let it pass without mention. Taking the case of a 51" engine shaft I cannot see why he should say that long bearings are the most unreliable, unless he means that long bearings have actually loss real bearing surface than short ones in the ca s which he had in mind wi►.n. writing. Again, if an engine shaft were small and the weight and work it transmitted were so great as to produce flexure of the shaft within the bearing, then it would be a positive benefit to make it larger in diameter, and thereby get ar>itional bearing surface both by pre-Venting flexure and increasing the surface area of the shaft. So it would seem but reasonable that a large and long bearing would stand a much better chance of having sufficient bearing surface than a short and small one would have. Increasing the diame-ter of the shaft beyond that necessary to attain the desired stiffness, would probably be of no benefit, from the fact that the increase of weight of the shaft would increase the friction enough to neutralize what would be saved by decreasing thy pressure per square inch of surface, unless the pressure wore groat ein to force out 110 11- 1 I •)r.ount,. 
To get the work done on time, you are com-pelled to use what there is at hand. If you sit down and say " I can't," someone takes your place that " will try."

" Do, it will just save me $1,000." I said it would go at the appointed time. The piston-head was fitted on a taper, turned smaller than the body of the rod, with a nut to hold it on. I first straight-ened the rod. I had noticed a sheet of old boiler iron lying before the furnace. Out of this I cut two circu-lar pieces 8i" in diameter (the cylinder was 9"x18"), with a hole in the center of each ; filed these holes to fit the rod closely, one to go against the shoulder, the other for the nut to turn against ; next fitted two pieces of oak 1,, thick, of a diameter to fit the cylinder with holes to fit the rod, being careful that they were in the center and fitted tight. I put three r bolts through plates and wood to clamp them firmly. Next, I cut a groove in the center of the wood 1:1-"x1-;" to receive hemp, put it on my rod, screwed up the nut and had as good a head as any one wood want for a short time.

HOW TO LEARN-BUYING TOOLS-STUDYING AT HOME--A HOME CLASS-PRELIMINARY PRAC-TICE-PROJECTION. 
The question is often asked by young me-chanics, " How can I learn to draw ? " or " How can I obtain a knowledge of practical drafting ; being so situated that I cannot get the benefit of instruction from a teacher ? " There is one method of studying drafting, which is within the reach of all, no matter how or where situated, and to such would-be students these remarks are directed : Buy a few drawing tools, or make them ; also a book treating of drafting, and study at home during the odd moments and spare hours. A very good idea of drafting may be gained at home, and no one need feel diffident about saying " I learned drawing by the kitchen fire." If there are a number of person who de-sire to study let them club together and start a drawing school of their own. Let them ac-quire a book treating upon the subject ; pro-viide themselves with a room where they can work undisturbed, and begin the work at the beginning by learning to draw lines and curves ; to erect perpendiculars ; to lay off angles, and to construct squares, triangles, and polygons. Let them begin at the very beginning, and not try to " know a thing before they learn it." Become accustomed to handling the tools, find their " weak points," and also their own, and study to favor the ono and correct the other. By- the time that a knowledge of the in-str►►ents has been ►teq►ired, they will be Id& to perform most (If the problems per-i t)► IJoe art or drafting; that is, they

Then the pressure after ignition would attain barely thirty atmospheres, and, as we are dealing here with the case in which combus-tion is effected without excess of air, the pressure would necessarily be lower in all other cases. It is, therefore, probable that in many cases we can really attain the absolute limit of utilization. To sum up, while manifestly lending itself, in the completest possible manner, to the utilization of elastic force developed in the gaseous mass by combustion under constant volume, the arrangement now in question is not less simple than the preceding one—at least, unless we consider as a complication the necessity (or rather the convenience) of em-ploying in some cases, distribution by clack-- valves. This distribution is generally the most advantageous, and there is nothing to prove that it is not applicable even to locomotives, and, above all, to the case in question.—ing.

Increasing the diameter of a crank-pin will not greatly increase its tendency to heat, because if its diameter is double, the velocity of its surface is doubled, but this is almost neutralized by the fact that the pressure per square inch of surface is reduced just half. The main considerations therefore in deter-mining the diameter of a crank-pin should be, fist to give it sufficient transverse strength, and second, sufficient surface area so that the maximum pressure per square inch of surface may not exceed 14,000 pounds and which in marine engines seldom exceeds 800 pouno a true urmal P K, In speaking of surface area of -1 the normal arc --;ns I mean the pr,, in no way dependent upon the curvature of the pitch line 0 K, they are the same,for the same arc 0 H on all curves, and therefore all odontoids traced on the same side of any number of different pitch-curves by tlie “me point on the same roller are similar ',)/ -

But in this, their conclusion would bo at fault, as it would be in many other instances if they were to adopt that which would seem most natural concerning a place of this sort. The system of payment here, if such it can be called, is this : The employes are sup-posed to be paid once a month, upon which day of the month they never know, until they receive their money. Usually it arrives be-tween the first and tenth day. Twice within a year they have had to wait two or three weeks longer than the usual time, and i;,z,e they received pay for two months' work in the same week. To say that this irregularity and ofttimes delay is inconvenient, and that it sometimes brings distress upon some of the two hundred and fifty or three hundred machinists, black-smiths and foundrymen employed there, would only be stating the truth in mild terms. If the U. S. Government were hard pushed for money, or if it were some private firm which was financially embarrassed, this state of affairs might seem justifiable, but for a country with millions of dollars in the treasury is there any excuse ?

One Way to Improve Steam-engine Economy. 
Improvement in the steam-engine for the past fifty years has consisted mainly in put-ting into practice what was already known to be desirable. In this, as in most other affairs, it was found to be one thing to know what was desirable, and another thing to ac-complish it. Better plans of construction have rendered the use of high steam-pressure and high piston-speed more common, and these, with better workmanship and careful attention to details, have brought about better economy. Considered as a machine, recent improvements in the steam-engine have been important. Undoubtedly there is room for further improvements in these directions—there is no such thing as standing still—but the ground has been so well covered that nothing radical is to be expected, except it come from the establishment of new and important facts in the science of steam engi-neering, and from a direction not now very obvious. Improvements in tools and ma-chinery for doing good work cheaply have had much to do with improving the construc-tion of the steam-engine, not only by affording the means for doing so, but frequently by pointing out the direction for improvement. Aside from this, the introduction of better instruments for, and better methods of, meas-uring effect has been important. But steam engineering embraces not only the designing and construction of steam-engines and boilers, but their management, as well, and here there is room for general pro-gress in the direction of better economy. If not a new field, it is one that has not been as extensively cultivated as it ought to be. Users of steam-engines are, owing to long and persistent effort, fairly well educated in the economy of paying for good design and construction ; but they do not to the same ex-tent appreciate the value of good manage-ment. Sometimes they are, so it seems, of the opinion that there is not much in the way of economy in the every-day management of a steam plant, except what is comprised in stopping and starting, and in keeping up the motion for the required number of hours ; their interest ceases after hiring an engineer just eom potent f(?r this duty, or employing a , a‘tont etigInewr who finds no (.0 OpiTIL 
• [MARCH 20, 18s6 
probable that in many instances they would find something startling in the difference. Further investigation would sometimes re-veal incompetence in the engine-room ; but, perhaps, oftener the cause would be found in their own refusal to second the efforts of a competent engineer. Either would be about equally fatal to good economy. Not that the every-day economy of a motive plant is likely to equal that of a closely conducted test of the same engines and boilers, but the latter shows the possibility that may be closely ap-proximated. To insure that the best at-tainable results are being obtained, it is abso-lutely essential that comparisons be readily made. This has been provided for by modern science and common sense, and to fail to make use of what is thus provided is to put to one side one of the best known means of securing economy. When, as is often the case, the results of actual practice are about fifty per cent. those of a fairly conducted test there is good reason to look for some-thing wrong. But means of easily making comparisons must be provided if any advan-tage is to be taken of the experience of others. Economy in motive power is made up of small things, and observations must be specific as well as general. When the operation of the motive plant gets outrageously bad, an expert is called in to straighten matters out. But this is not until after a good deal of waste. When it is done, the cost of discovering the trouble, to say nothing of the cost of the remedy, is likely to be more than that of previously supplying the engineer with such things as he required, and by reasonable encouragement making an ex-pert of him, ready to suggest preventives in-stead of costly remedies. The interests of manufacturers call for economical motive power, and a very apparent direction for improvement in this respect is through the engine-room. We hear a great deal of the need of skilled workmen in other branches, and but little of the need of skilled engineers, yet economy in manufacture must begin in the engine-room. Engineers must to a greater extent than most other workmen educate themselves ; they ought to be afforded every reasonable opportunity for doing so. Not out of any sentiment, but because it is policy to do so. Whenever this is (lone we hiLvo novor heard vomidailit that It did 
Territorial Limits of Natural Gas. 
Among later developments of the natural gas boom are published statements that " pay-ing " wells have been discovered, and are being " worked " in a number of towns as far removed from the original centers of pro-duction as Central and Northwestern Ohio. We believe, also, that equally confident claims are made for some Southern towns. If the published statements of the new " finds " are well based, it would seem that the territorial limits of the natural gas " fields " are not yet very well defined, or with present knowledge of the subject capable of very close defini-tion. 
A New Railroad Brake. 
It is not often that a really great invention is born of what a lawyer would call " malice aforethought." A Virginia inventor is living proof that such an exception may occur. In a local paper he publishes an advertisement highly laudatory of an automatic railroad brake, which he has " discovered " and pat-ented, but omits to publish any explanation of its construction or the principle on which it acts. In the published card, he says he was standing at the " station " as a freight train went by, and noticed that the brakeman tried to stop the train, but found some difficulty in doing so immediately. The future inventor thereupon remarked to some gentlemen present that he proposed to get up an automatic brake, which would stop the train without " all that trouble." He now announces that, after four years of hard study and almost sleepless nights, he has accomplished his object, and closes by ex-pressing his hope that railroad managers will examine his " patent right " at once, that they may " relieve the poor, worn-out, rest-broken and frozen brakemen;" his " greatest desire " being to see them released from their exposure and sufferings. His next greatest is not stated, but it is to be hoped that rail-road managers will be willing to gratify it, if it is shown to their mechanical satisfaction that our Virginia friend's claim for his inven-tion are as well based 1LH w„ think, however, Hint. toast, riiilr11a1l mitiingorti

 it, is running In the work, or when the work Is running on the drill ? A.—Probably it will be when the drill is ru:.ning in the work, as the chips have then a better chance to work out of the hole, as they are alternately carried over and fall under the drill. 
(114) H. V., Greenpoint, N. Y. , writes : 1. I would like a permit to run a small steam yacht. Whore should I apply for it? A.—At the inspec-tor's office, in the New York Post-office. 2. How much power will I get from an engine 234"x3", at 60 lbs. boiler pressure ? A .—Probably you may get nearly one horse-power. 3. Is a screw 14" diameter and 20" pitch too large ? A.—About right. (115) A. E. H., Bradford, Conn., asks : how to pulverize resin economically, in large quantity ? A.—A method used in some large paper mills, is to use a common corn-cracker, such as in use in some country grist-mills for breaking up corn in the ear. A machine of this description can be so adjusted (like a coffee mill) that resin can be ground to any desired degree of fineness. (116) Laurel, Ind..; asks : 1. What is your opinion of suspending the rear end of a tubular boiler by means of a strap passing entirely around it, instead of by hooks riveted on? A.—W e can see no objections, except-that the expansion and con-'Taction of the long strap will bring about a little more up-and-down motion to that end of the boiler. How many 4" tubes should there be in a 42" hell ? A.—Barr gives the number of 4" tubes for a 42" shell as 25. 

(117) E. D. asks : 1. What is the method of computing the specific volume of steam at any given pressure ? A.—We cannot give you a satis-factory rule. You will find this matter discussed in Steam Engineering, by Nystrom. You will find in any work on steam engineering tables that will give you the desired information. 2. How can I compute the horse-power of a compound engine without the use of an indicator ? A.—The work done by a compound engine will generally be a little less than what would be done in the low pressure cylinder alone, working with the swill., ratio of expansion. . 
(118) H. P. A., Brooklyn, N. Y., asks : Can you give me any information respecting the methods of coating the bottom of ships with con-crete ? T belie it is done for the purpose of pro-tecting thei- „vc'_,heads from injury by loose arti-cles riVine• briut, and also as a water proof cover-astomary to cement the bottoin of the upper turn of the bilge, in the rivets, plates and angle ,F,An. of the bilge-water, which cement and sand in ing it Water lodge--n(i limber ways

3 Plain Milling Machine. We have in our works and in constant use, about one hundred Milling Machines, and our experience with them has demonstrated that for manufacturing purposes where many duplicate pieces are required, that the best work is produced and the most econ-omical results obtained from machines that are con.- 1 pact and solid, so arranged that t he pieces operated upon can he quickly placed in position and quickly removed after the cut is taken. We have designed a line of Milling Machin es for manufacturing purposes, combining the above de-sirable qualities, of which the No. 3 Plain Milling Machine is a type, and by their use we have sound it practicable to produce from10 to 20 per cent. more work in a given time than we could possibly obtains from any other type of a milling machine on the same work. The Spindle is driven by a gear and pinion from a three-step cone with 3" belt. It has a vertical adjustment of 6". The Table is 9" wide, 27" long, and has-12" longi-tudinal and 4" transverse movement, and is moved longitudinally 2" by one turn of the hand-wheel. Tlae Feed is automatic with three changes, stopping automatically at any required point. The Vise has jaws 6Y8" long, 1 7-16" deep, and will open 33/8", Counter-shaft has pulleys 10" diam. for 3" belt, and should run about 375 turns per minute • The Price includes vise, counter-shaft, wrenches, &c , delivered f. o. b. at Providence, It.
