lions in the munufiiulure ot' lead pipe.
SuttiB samples of Ihe new Canadian
product were brought down to Vancouver u few days ago, and arc on exhibition in tbe rooms of the Tourist I HotCl ...
Association, where they have utlract
• I no little attention. The Trail
Creek News gives the toll iwing brief
but. graphic descri| tion of tie- process
of niaiiufacture:
Lead pip- spouts like a jet of water
from,the machine now in operation
at the smelter here, The operation
\ii the machine is described a- simple
vet, striking iu the ease with which
the finished product is turned mil
Additional interest is added t > the
le id pipe branch uf the smelter I }'
icason of the fact that the product is
tho first pipe ever male in Canada
from Canadian lead.
