At first I had trouble keeping steam, but soon found that it was the fault of the fireman. The boiler works very satisfactorily indeed, and is giving great results. Steamboat men about here are much interested in its performance. I shall want a much larger boiler soon, and will give details later." This little boiler is only 3 ft. 9 in. high, by 30 in. base, has only 42 sq. ft. h.-s., and 1.65 sq. ft. g.-s., but it drives a 3x5x5-inch condensing compound, 250 r.-p.-m., with air and feed pump on natural draft.
