Moore's Internal Fan Kifn
UMBER manufacturers who prefer Internal Fan Kiln, illustrated in the
kilns having Mechanical Circulation will be interested in Moore's accompanying drawings.
For drying certain classes of lum. ber a fast movement of air throuch the stock and a large volume -of alr turnover at low temperaturc is desirable. The fnternal Fan Kiln was -first designed by tbc Forest Products Labolatory,'Madi- son, lVisconsin, as beins the most efficient kiln for thiJ puroose. Credit is therefore due theni for the original design.
The }Ioore Dry. Kiln Co., after con- ductrng experi.ments covering- a pe-rrod _ol _nearly two years, has adapted -the intgrnal fin system to their Natural Draft Kiln s; that it can be used commerciallv foi both flat and edge oiling of-lrun- ber. They now ofrei to-manufacturers who want fast, uniform cir- culation. the simplest and best nechanical circulaiing dry kiln. They have applied for additional patents covering improvements, but make tro charge for. patent rights or engrneerlng serYrce.
Moore Dry Kiln Co. manufactures and assembles the complcte rrraler- ials for these kilns, also fumishcs plans.- ar?d engineering service for rnstallatton and oDeration wrthout additional cost. Mechanics skilled in dry kiln construction are also available for mills who desire r his service.

The circulation i.s rezlersible. The arrows indicate the moainoent of air in one directi,on, but by reztersing the fans, the air moaement is also reaeried.
With .two modern factories devoted exclusively to the manufacture of D-ry Kiln equipment, plus 45 years of success in kiln buildinc and lumber drying, you can safely de- pend on Moore Dry Kiln (io. for the best mechanical eirculatine Kitn in addition to their r-ell-knowi and successful Ve:eer Kiln, Natural Draft Charge Kiln, and Graduated Progressive Kiln.

_ Owing to the longer air traztel tkrough edge-stacked Iumber, the reaersal of circulation ii this-kiln is a vgry d-esirable -feature to secure uniform ilrying throughowt the load.
