Archer Incinerator Minimizes Chas. R. McCormick Lumber Smoke and Sparks in Co. to Distribute Stronach Burning Refuse Nail

The Ar'cher Blower Pipe Corporation, of Los Angeles, builders of burners and incinerators for twenty nine consecutive years, now furnishes a refuse consumer which far surpasseJ anything they were, able to create in the past.-

The chief bbjection that refuse burners have been seeking to overcoml, of course, is sparks, smoke, etc., from the bu"rner. In this new Archer incinerator, it is scientifically arranged so that the air cooled stack permits the cold air to meiet the hot gases coming up the inner stack, forming an upper air com6ustion chamber that effectually consumes sparki, and evaporates smoke to a minimum degree.

'It has been -a wonderful success wherever used, and there are a very large number in actual use.

Mr. I. G. Archer is owner and manager of the company and a -veteran authority on all blower things'

Harry Stronach, inventer of the Stronach non-splitting Nail, who is representing the Stronach Nail Co. of Pittsburg, Pa., manufacturer of the nails, on the Pacific Coast, announces the appointment of the Chas. R. McCormick Lumber Co. as distributors of the Stronach Nail in California, and that this company is carrying a stock of the nails both at San Francisco and Los Angeles.

These nails are being retailed exclusively through retail lumber dealers. The triangular end of the nail cuts the wood fibers, punching a hole ahead of the nail body. There is no splitting as with the diamond pointed nail, which wedges the fibers apart.

The hole punched is smaller than the nail body, giving the wood a tight grip all around the nail. This increases holding power tremendously.
