New Burner Invented By Local Man Great Future For De vice, Mill Men Predict . A force draft device for sawdust and refuse burners, declared by prominent miiitnen U oe the most significant Improvement ever made, ha been recently patented by A. Kruso, owner and mnnager of the KruBe Lumber company, sltuateO on Hwnn Lake mountain. Tho device require no grate bars or drafts In the bottom, and the burner need not be bnllt to such heights a are necessary with the suction draft, grato bar type of burner. nruse invention consists of a heavy, iron water Jacket, which ex tends to the exact center of the furnace. Inside of this water Jac ket Is the nozzle which deliver the forced draft to tho burner. This nozzle Is fed by a motor and blow er outside of the burner some six or eight feet, and nozzle, blower, und motor aro mounted on a track, so that the Intensity of the forced draft may be regulated by the dis tance of tho nozzle from the core of tho heap of sawdust and refuse In the burner. There Is consider able space between the sliding noz zle and the protecting waterjacket which takes up the force of the air draft when It is not needed. The advantages of tnc Invention aro that It enables a smaller and less expensive type of burner to handle unlimited amounts of green Bawdust with greater facility than tho costly open grate type. The fire Is started in the center of the pile, and kept burning by the force of the draft until the heap of re fuse crumbles in from the top. Then the draft may be reduced, so as not to force soot and sparks out through tho top of the burner, as the case with high, open grate type of burner. Mr. Kruse arrived In Klamath Falls Monday from Longview, where ho placed orders with thej Long-Bell Lumber company fori three of his blowers, to be de-i llvered as toon, as they can be 1 I manufactured. The only Kruse ' blower in operation at present is at ! the plant of the Electric Lumber' company, near Portland. Superin-! tendent Hoffman, of the Long-Bell j Lumber company, in charge of all mill construction, visited the plant I with Mr. Kruse before the Long-' Bell order was placed, and after j seeing the burner In operation de Blared that it was the greatest im-1 provemeyt that bad ever been made IB sawdust and waste, burners. ! Mr. Kruso left Tuesday morning to arrange for the manufacture of his invention on a rnmmprrlnl ..ml..

It means the very best yet costs no more. quantities of greon sawdust has al ways ooon a problem to mlllmen, and other types of force drafts for blowers have not prove! practical. The simplicity and ease of operation of tho blower aro strong points In ii favor. Fire may be started In tho burner by tossing a piece of burning waste In frout of the noz zle and turning on the motor. Tin. (draft may be regulated by moving the motor, blower, and nozzle back ward and forward on the track, tba waterjacket performing the triple service of protecting the noz zle from melting In the extreme heat, keeping off falling slabs, thus leaving It free to move In and out, and of reducing the Intensity of the drart when the nozzle. Is moved farther from the center of the burner. Minneapolis Good; Lumber Demand in City Holds Brisk MINNEAPOLIS.
