HEATING EXPERT RECOMMENDS USE OF OIL BURNERS Detroit Engineers Offers High Price for Williams Oil-0-Matic, Indianapolis was visited this week | by W. H. Harris, of Detroit. Mich., one of the leading heating engineers lof the Middle West. Harris repre- ‘ sents the Heat and Coal Survey Servi ice, and he was in Indianapolis visiting local firms engaged in installing heating plants. While here Mr. Harris visited W. D. | Long, at the offices of W. D. Long A | Company, at 144 E. Ohio St., and dis i cussed with him the efficiency of the | Williams Oil-O-Matic burners which ! Mr. Long distributes. Harris said he i had inspected every kind of oil burn- ! ing device and that the Williams proj duces the most perfect blaze. Perfect Combustion “In fact,” said Mr. Harris, “the WilI liams burner is the only one that at- ■ tains perfect combustion, and it is the I only burner that has been passed by | the Heat and Coal Survey Service, as perfect.” The lA>ng Company has installed I this type of oil burner in every kind ! of heating plant in Indianapolis, and every installation has been successful. In no instance has a Williams burner j been taken out after being installed, ! according to Mr. Long. Easily Installed The Williams burner is readily Installed in any kind of heating plant. All that is necessary to do is to remove the original burner, introduce the oil nozzle through the ash door and seal up this entrance to the fire j pot. A small pump forces the oil into the mixer which whips it into a bum- | ing emulsion. A small fan draws into the combusi tion chamber a large quantity of air, so that more air is being burned than oil. The device Is cleanly, efficient, and furnishes the desired heat for hot ! air, steam, hot water or any style of heating unit.

Robert W. Bracken. State auditor, voted against the sale, declaring the ! company was getting 539 acres for j only about SI,BOO.

HOME IN TRADE PLAN INDORSED Krebay Company Finds Ready Response to Arrangement, A home builded to order and con taining features desired with the old home taken In trade, is the idea that is being worked out by the Krebay Construction Company, whose offices are located at 605 City Trust building The plan of Liking over old homes is very similar to the practice followed by thMautomobile trade in accepting usnncars when Helling anew one. The Idea works to the advantage of the owner of a home that may not be suitably located or one that may not embrace all modern features the family wishes. C. F. Kreis of the company predicts that the plan, when It becomes better known In Indianapolis, will be popular among home owners who want more commodious or more modern dwelling*. The Krebay plan Is well founded and sound financially, because the company, being in the building industry, can, at best advantage, improve the old property It accepts In trade for now homes.
