Until tne last few years there (.being from 300 te> <00 feel per minute, observation only. was a popular prejudice against it, but depending on material and size) gives The subject may conveniently be di owing to the improved composition of very large capacity. It handles very successfully every material and is par ticularly applicable to sand, gravel, ce. ment, ore and grain. The lite of the belt is from three tei six yean and the pulleys from fifteen to twenty years. Scraper or night conveyors are made of fiat steel plates attached to either one or two strands of cnain, and travel in a trough, pushing the maeerial ahead. This makes a very convenient arrangement when the material is car ried from 30 to 300 feet. It has many advantages, among which may be' men tioned that it admits of discharging materials at any point along the trough by means of gates. In common with all conveyors pushing the material, the wear on all parts is excessive anu the power consumed is large. These points are considered only when the material is of a heavy or abrasive character. The flights should be connected to roll- A V-Bucket Elevator Conveyor. »Mate.rial-Hanelling Bn*rineer, Seattle. November 7. 1908 PACIFIC BUILDER AND ENGINEER 401 ers or wearing shoes, thus relieving them of wear. Archimedes was the first to use the principle of the screw or spiral for handling material. As now construct ed it consists of a steel ribbon rolled in the shape of a spiral and mounted on a shaft. This ribbon should be made of short lengths instead of a continuous piece, owing to the ease of repair. if a short length is Injured the damage is confined between two points and not the entire length. The spiral conveyor is used only for Short lengths, although some are in operation up to 100 feet. The torsional Strain on tbe shaft is so great that it is impractical to go much beyond this length, especially for heavy materials. The same elisadvantages apply to this type as to the scraper conveye>r. as the material is pushed instead of being carried, it is very satisfactory, however, handling fine materials such as cement, grain and slack coal, and in all cases where the space is limited. To overcome the objections of the' Bight conveyor, due to the wear and power consumed, the Idea was evolved to have the' trough travel with the ma terial. The pan conveyor was one of the first results of ibis suggestion, it consists of short lengths of she>et steel bent ui> at the sides, and the ends over lap the pan ahead The above-mentioned types are suit able only for conveying horizontally or on a grade.

It is good practice to handle heavy pack ages with belts only when it is neces sary to have light equipment, such as in portable conveyors. Package elevators are built to die charge at one floor or at any one of the number. In the former the fingers or trays are rigidly attached to the two strands of chain and are unloaded as the chain runs over the head pulleys. When the packages discharge at dif ferent floors, trays are pivoted to en able the load to be elevated to the top, and fingers are arranged on different floors to remove the package as it passes the floor. As suggested before, conveying ma chinery is installed primarily to lower the cost of handling. Where this ma chinery is installed it is an unusual thing if it does not pay for itself in two or three years. In many cases it does this in a few months.
