“Tt has also shown,— 
“J. A cool, clean, uniform fire 
must be maintained in the producer 
and to obtain this, operators must 
learn from experience -how to care 
for and maintain their fires and be 
persistent in so doing. 
“2. The operator must keep the 
engine clean, and well oiled and the 
ignition and compression in perfect 
order. 
“3 For the best economy the 
plants should be run at least 10 
hours per day, as a long standover 
and consequent cleaning and longer 
blowing up, use coal to no purpose. 
“4. That under the best condi- 
tions a station duty at full load of 
150,000,000 foot pounds per 100 
pounds of coal can be obtained and 
a station duty for the summer 
months of 125,000,000 and for the 
year including about six months 
when runs of but two or three days 
of six hours each are made, of about 
80,000,000 obtained. 
**5. That our fuel cost with coal 
at $5.00 varies for 1,000,000 gallons 
raised one foot, from an average of 
1 73-100. cents in summer to 2 78-100 
eents in the short runs and long 
standovers of winter, and even when 
taken for the year and under the 
adverse conditions mentioned, the 
average for the year is 214 cents. 
“Those of us who were responsi- 
ble for this installation feel that the 
results we have obtained and are 
daily obtaining, are sufficient to 
show that in the field of water sup- 
ply pumping plants where condi- 
tions are at all similiar to those at 
Manchester Gas Producer plants can 
be managed very economically and 
efficiently and make a decided sav- 
ing in operation as compared with 
the steam plant which in such cases 
would be adopted’’. 
Mr. Allen had a collection of pic- 
tures which he cast upon a screen 
to more fully illustrate his talk. 
The Manchester plant, we might 
add, is regarded as one of the model 
pumping plants in New England, 
with its gas producing power ma- 
chinery, instead of the old-time 
steam pumps, and also with its new 
concrete standpipe. Committees and 
engineers from other cities and 
towns all over the east have been 
here or have made inquiries about 
the plant, and several of the en- 
gineering papers throughout the 
country have had articles on it. 
The success of the new plant re- 
flects great credit upon the town and 
especially upon the comnittee and 
engineer and others who were instru- 
mental in seeing it established.
