ENLASGEHENT OF THE J. P. DEVINE CO.'S PLANT. 



The J. p. Devine Co., Buffalo. Xew York, is constructing, 

 as an addition to its plant, a steel and tile building 203 feet 

 long, 60 feet wide and 60 feet high. 



This extension will be devoted entirely to the manufacture 

 of special apparatus for the chemical industry. This branch of 

 the company's business has increased extensively (hiring the past 

 two years, and its apparatus has become well and favorably 

 known. 



Since undertaking the above extension the Devine company 

 has also taken over tlie entire plant of the Pitts Agricultural 



Steel CoxjtructI'jn 



P, Dev 



Co.'s Xew Factory. 



Works of Buffalo, to do special casting work made necessary 

 by the unprecedented activity of the chemical industry. 



The Devine company is building plants for manufacturers for 

 the production of various chemicals including all dyestufTs and 

 higher intermediate colors, the making of which was confined to 

 Germany prior to the present war. The development of this 

 industry is most important not only because the attainment of 

 the necessary standard in the production of colors will render 

 this country independent of foreign sources of supply, but with 

 suitable apparatus American workmen can nitrate with equal 

 facility benzol, toluol or phenol for the manufacture of aniline 

 oil, or high explosives.
