They are specially designed to ensure the maximum output of steam with the minimum cost of coal and labour. There are many ways of raising steam, but the “ Bennis ” way is the best. By means of the “ Bennis” system of Conveying and Elevating, the coal can be raised, distributed and fed to the stokers with the minimum of manual labour. Thus labour shortage is ren- dered of no consequence, costs are reduced; low-grade unmarketable fuels converted into profitable steam, boiler duty increased and boiler life preserved.

Unsaleable fuels can be successfully used for steam raising by the aid of “ Bennis ” Compressed Air Furnaces, which are specially arranged for hand-firing if desired. A special booklet has been prepared on this subject, which will be gladly sent on request. The “ Bennis'3 Compressed Air Furnace for hand firing in Collieries, &c.
