THE CLEAN I HERALD, OLEAN, NEW YORK, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 13, 1922 'AGE FIVE New Gas Driller Engine Developed Here Expected to Revolutionize Business Engine has already demonstrated its worth in tests on nearby lease; Production started at Clark Brothers plant. An Important step In the oil and gas drilling Industry has resulted efforts of Clark Brothers company, this cltyl, In developing a new natural gat driller engine which It Is predicted, will revolutionize the drilling business as to cost of fuel. This new engine, the result, of four or five years of experimentation and development by the company's experts, will drill as rapidly as the 'old type of steam driller engine and practically cuts the cost in two, it is claimed. It Is especially adapted to such fields as this and has demonstrated Its worth in a practical way as the result of tests on the lease of the Turner Oil company, near Indian Creek, Pa. Two Cylinder Type This new engine, an Illustration ot which -is shown accompanying much merit and was adaptable to the business.

However, the new enr glne cuts down the weight 60 percent over this and practically the cost In halt from the old days of steam operation. "-At the, recent tests near Indian Creek, the new engine was used In connection with a. National rig and by drillers unfamiliar with this type of engine. The first well was drilled to a depth of 1300 feet In 12 full drilling days and the second well, to the same depth, in eight drilling days. Beat Out Handicap A steam operated rig was started nearby, two days ahead of the new engine's outfit and both finished at practically the same time.

The saving In fuel cost is the main Item. The drilling of the second well, 1300 feet in depth, in eight drilling days, used but 36,000 cubic feet of natural THE NEW DRILLER ENGINE Skit uttelt, to of two cylinder, two-cyeto special fag clutch. Claims art made for It proven in the recent tests, that ft all the flexibility of the old type operated by a steam engine, together with an equal performance as to its duties. Clark Brothers company and its men have been pioneers in gas en- Cine development for drilling purposes and the perfected product has been reached, they claim. Several'patents will be taken out on the new engine and its production at the plant of the company, 5th and Lincoln streets, has been begun.

A large output of this engine is guaranteed by its advantages in fuel saving cost. Formerly all oil and gas well drill- Ing was by the steam method. When the fuel cost for this method became a big item experiments were started with the natural gas These first efforts were with the single- cylinder type and attempts to adapt It to this kind of drilling fof the oil and gas fields. It was found not suitable because not flexible enough. Cuts Fuel Cost in Two About three years ago the same company brought out a four-cylinder, four-cycle engine, 'which had gas for fuel.

The cost of fuel runs as low as -one-eighth to one-tenth of cost when Is used, with steam operation, i A steam engine operated by natnr- algas also brings cost far higher, using approximately 50,000 cubic feet of natural gas in a drilling day of 24 hours, while with the, new engine the "direct use of the natural only takes about .4500 cubic feet for the same time. This brings the cost of gas used directly less than one- tenth when with steam produced by natural gas fuel. While the initial cost of this engine is somewhat more, its valuable features are the fuel saving and its saving in methods of moving because of its portability. Pulls Tools FaFster Tt is also claimed for the new engine that it cau pull tools much faster than the former single-cylinder type, as well as be moved about for Sullivan died this morn- IM at 12:30 o'clock at the Higgins Memorial hospital.

Install Double Unit of New Electrically Operated Circular Coal Elevators Clean Transfer company elevators located at First and Wayne streets have total capacity of 600 tons--Coal can be moved at rate of 50 tons per hour Important step In future handling of coal in this city is being taken by the Clean Transfer company, which is installing here a double unit of the new electrically operated, circular coal elevators.

The first coal elevators ot this type to be erected anywhere came into use last year. The nearest ones to Olcan were Installed at Rochester and East Aurora. These twin elevators of the new type are nearly completed and will be first put into use next week. They are located at First and Wayne streets. Each has a capacity of 300 tons, making a total capacity of 000 tons.

By the special electrically driven machinery, coal can be moved in or out of the elevators at the rate of 50 tons per hour. Coal is taken from the cars on a siding adjoining or taken out of the elevators by means of and endless chain arrangement with electric power. Adjoining these, the company Is also erecting an elevator of the usual type for sott coal only, with a capacity of 200 tons. The circular ones will be used for hard coal for wholesale trade alone and the other for soft coal for retail and wholesale both. To Cost $15,000 The cost of the elevators will be in the neighborhood of $15,000.

The most conspicuous difference between the earlier forms of manual training and industrial arts lies in the emphasis placed In industrial arts on the educational or thought side in contradistinction to the training or Skill side. Instruction includes the necessary technical information relating lo materials and processes; it also includes information relating to such topics as the social and economic importance of the work in hand and opportunities for advancement in the occupations involved.

In addition it includes considerable intimately related science, mathematics and history. for example, involved whenever a need arises for its use; drawing and design brought in as necessity demands. Since the teaching of industrial srt-i in the intermediate grades can not cover effectively the whole field til industry but must concentrate on problems which are of immediate value to pupils, it follows that such teaching must function largely through the projects which pupils undertake.
