Any sort\nuf wuud will answer, ,iinl when\na representative ol The Express\ninspected the process, gas was\nbeing manufactured trotn pieces\nol Iir bark gathered Indiscriminately,\nThe plant, witli the single exception of the producer, is an\nexact reproduction of the con-\nrational gas plant. The producer consists ol two lilies side\nby side, one lor the up draft\nand one for the down draft,aim\ndivided horizontally inlo an up\nper and a luvver cuiiipartiiieiit.\nThe wuod (rom which the gas\nis to be extracted is placed in\nthe top compartment and set\n011 lire, lhe Haines being allowed\nto escape meantime through\nopenings ia ths tup. W hen tlu\nproducer is in oper.itimi, tlust\ntop openings are dosed. Thc\nair then enters the- one title at\nthe bottom, passes up through\nthe burning wood and duwu iln\nother Hue, extracting Ihs vols\ntile out oi tin- burning wood as\nit goes, and carries them duiv n\nthrough a charcoal tiller ,in llu\nopposite Hue, which lixcs them\nto a staid gas, rt .uly lo be used\nfor heati or power.\nThe process represents llu\nnearest possible approach to a\ntlow of natural gas and challenges the beholders credulity, because of its very simplicity, Tin\ngas is produced at a cost uver\n200 per cenl cheaper than coal\ngas, with winch ii compares\nfavoralbly Ior power pBTpoass,\nand also lor lighting purposes,\nwhen the burner which is BOW\nbeing perfected by the luinp.uii\nis used. On the average, 1)00\ntons ol fuij wullld give 40,000,-\n000 cubic iect ol gas. It is estimated that this is lhe .imuiilil\nof gas producing wood thnt iv\ndestroyed by tlie mills, etc., ni\nVancouver civcry day, and that\ncity uses dally .ibnitt $00,000\ncubic feet uf gas.\nAttached tm the experimental\nplant referred tn, is a jit. tn\nwhich a match was applied in\nthe presence \"l Tin- Bxpresa representative a few minutes after the producer was set iii operation, and the Immediate result was a burst nt flame, nl\nabout the same color as lllal\ngiven hy a coal nil lamp. From\nthc vats the gas is conducted .1\ndistance ni abultt nne hundred\nleet, to a six liurse pnvver en\ngine, operated by a single gas\njet, iitlc-d willi a hnnd.

This process places it within the power\nof every sawmill (lor illustration) tO generate lis own light\nand power, and thai out of the\nrefuse Htm her, the sawdust, and\noilier waste wood about the\nplan*. It is likewise readily-\nadaptable to any industrial institution, ami its significance\nto producers ami manufacturers\ncan scarcely be overeslimalcd.\nThe Installation oi a plant 01\nthis nature in this city will inevitably prove of the grantee!\nassistance ill the, industrial development of North Vancouver.\nThere is a gnat deal oi bUild-\nam . ,. aTTal^M\nine in sight, which will bc un-'\n
