A STRONG FLOW OF ORDERS !

Anticipating the increased demand for steam
that is ahead of your Industry we have taken
measures to ensure prompt delivery from stock
of our rapid steam-raising machine-stokers and
self-cleaning compressed air furnaces. As it
is highly probable that an increasingly strong
flow of orders for the “BENNIS” machines
will reach the Works, those Collieries likely to
require more steam at short notice are invited
to send in their orders immediately, as a
strict sequence must necessarily be observed
in supplying machines from stock.

British Collieries,” to
