 Notes. — In getting out above we have based on a somewhat similar 

 plant which we supplied to Ottawa and on the price we are at present 

 paying for engines and solidified oil. 



You will require to make any modification necessary to suit price of 

 oil obtained in East London and delivered at site. The same remarks 

 as above apply to waste. Spares for pumps are what we consider ample 

 for one year's running. 



Spares for motor are as recommended by makers of motors-
