SAWDUST FURNACE.

[Illustration: Sawdust Furnace Section]

Referring also to page 33 for information relating to the burning of

sawdust and shavings S. S. Ingham, _in the Stationary Engineer_, says

upon this important matter:

“Regarding a furnace for burning sawdust, I submit the accompanying

cuts. I have built numbers of these oven furnaces for burning this fuel

in the south, and all have given excellent results. The dimensions

are for 60″ × 16′ return tubular (4″ tubes) boiler with stack 50 per

cent. greater area than the flues; a good draft is necessary.” It will

be understood that the upper cut is designed to show end view of the

furnace whose side is shown in sectional view at the bottom of the page.
