RESULTS OF THIS WATER PURIFICATION.

1. The boilers do not need to be cleaned during a whole season, as they

remain entirely free from incrustation; it is only required to avoid a

collection of soluble salts in the boiler, and therefore it is partly

drawn off twice a week.

2. The iron is not touched by this purified water. The water does not

froth and does not stop up valves. The fillings in the joints of pipes,

etc., do not suffer so much, and therefore keep longer.
