The oxy gen is drawn from the air by certain chemicals which Mr. Bundy has com pounded and not only -will it produce power, but light and heat are also obtained by the same process." The chemicals are inexpensive and running the truck the entire day costs just five cents. "The chemi cals are taken from the natural sources that are all about us," de clared Mr. Bundy. "They cost prac tically nothing, and unless there is air pressure, not explosive, and a child can drink them' and it will not hurt it." The generator containing the chemicals was placed on the side of the Overland truck and a small tube connects it with the large tubes of the truck engine. A small air hole in one of the tubes allows the air to pass in and a cap over this opening is regulated by the throttle of the machine. The more the cap is rais ed and the more air is allowed to nass into the tubes, the faster the engine runs. There is not one drop of oil of any description used in this new process and the Overland which Mr. Bundy vised, a model of about ten years ago, runs as smooth ly and evenly as the most expensive car on the market today. At present the regular car engine is beiner used, but the inventor now has under way an engine -which will occudv about one-third as much space and which is especially adapt- on tn th oxve-en Dower nrocess.

The benefit which will be derived from this invention, the saving which will be realized by its practi cal use will be invaluable to the world and the fact that.

WASTE IN MANUFACTURING LUMBER IS ENORMOUS James D. Lacey in the Lacey Tim ber Digest for June sets forth very clearly the situation as to waste in lumbering operations and prospects for more complete use of material which it is now impossible to han dle at a profit. His article is quoted in part: "No other industry furnishes the would-be reformer such material for his favorite pastime of "viewing with alarm" as he readily finds by a su-. perficial survey of the lumbering activities of the United States. The' bald statement that but forty per , cent of the industry s raw material is utilized is sufficient to the uni tiated to prove gross inefficiency and wilful waste. But the truth, when one really gets at it, is noti nearly so bad as some frequently! quoted generalizations would seem . to indicate. "It 13 a business axiom that the reclamation of any waste product is1 practicable only when it is profitable. ' No business enterprise can afford to engage in conservation measures purely out of sentiment. Every in dustry is compelled to "waste" those things which will not pay for their own conversion into useful commodi ties and in the lumber industry of the past the percentage of such waste has run very high. "This situation, however, is chang ing very rapidly. Chemical science has made important strides in the development of processes for the utilization of waste products of the forest; and it happens that chemis try affords the chief key to the util ization problem in this industry. Then, too, the upward trend of tim ber values in itself has tended to stimulate interest in every seeming opportunity for more complete util ization. When the timber suipolv seemed inexhaustible, the attitude of those who owned timber was much like the attitude of the American farmer in the days when farm land was so cheap that it seemed more profitable to work the land out and move than to maintain its producing capacity by fertilization and rota tion of crops. Today timber has a value that serves as an incentive to the development of processes for its complete conversion into merchant able products and this incentive is bound to increase with the unfailing advance in stumpage values. "A visit to the sawmills in any section today will show lhat very few are wasting the short lengths and other odds and ends that every mill sent to the refuse burner a few years ago, As the standard grades of lumber have increased in value, these items have become saleable, and are adding to the profit of the business. But thi3 is merely a first step in utilization. Other steps, of far greater importance, are being taken by lumber manufacturers in all parts of the United Sttaes, by way of installations of plants for the production of chemical by-products, paper pulp, etc. "It is not altogether improbable that the time may come when the by product distillates of wood will, rank ... lllc jjiUUUCI or lne CQ sawmill operation."
