没有一个迄今publishe论文或其他工作d on the India rubber industry gives an insight into such a variety of uses of this important material as does the new “Descriptive Catalogue and Price List of the N. Y. Belting & Packing Co., Ltd.,” a bound volume of 100 pages. FIRE AND WATER has more than once noted the growing value of the trade catalogues of manufacturers as a part of the industrial and scientific literature of the day, and it seems that these are to take the place largely of regulation books, such as issue through the publishing houses in relation to many branches of industry. This style of catalogue is u distinct departure from others, in that it combines the artistic with the practical. The commonplace and somewhat monotonous trade catalogue is enlivened by sketches and descriptions that, in a pleasing way, convey an idea of the various uses of rubber, besides containing much information on the methods of manufacture, In which respects it marks a wide difference from the former policy of manufacturers of keeping secret all facts of this kind. This catalogue is introduced with some notes on the history of the N.Y. Belting & Packing Co., Ltd., with illustrations and descriptions of their three factories. Some account of their trade-marks follows, after which comes the department of rubber belting, to which thirteen pages are devoted. There is an accountof rubber belting in general, followed by detailed descriptions of the belting made by the company, for grain elevator use, threshing machines, paper mills, etc , price lists of leather and rubber belting, and information of value on the use and care of belts, rules for calculating the speed of pulleys, rules for calculating horse power, how to splice belts and similar information. Twenty-four pages are devoted to rubber hose, with an account of its manufacture; steam hose, which is an important product of this company, occupies three pages, with valuable tables and lists; .one page is given to air brake hose, two to fire hose, four to cotton hose and the “Leatherite” treatment of same; three to suction hose; seventeen to mats and matting, including the company’s new patented rubber tiling, which they have supplied to the new steamers St. Louis and St. Paul; eight pages are given to packing, gaskets,and tubing, and six to emery wheels. Considerable space is devoted to specialties, of which a large variety are illustrated, together with remarks on vulcanization and mold work. Bicycle tires are briefly disposed of, as a separate pamphlet has been published on this subject. A double index, new and convenient in arrangement, gives the pages of both the lists and descriptions of articles. Altogether it is the most complete.comprehensi veand artistic rubber goods catalogue that ever has been issued.
