Work ProgressesOn InstallationOf Ash Collector

Expected To BeCompleted April 1Work on the installation of

the fly ash collector and alliedequipment on No. 6 boilerat the Heine Boiler Plantwas progressing according toschedule this week.

Chief Engineer George Craigsaid that it is expected instal-lation work will be completedby April 1.

Lists SchedulePreliminary work was start-

ed the week of February 6,when workmen relocated pip-ing and made preparations toreinforce the roof steel.

Last week actual installa-tion was started. Mr. Craigsaid the schedule calls for thereinforcing of the roof andthe installation of the storagetank, surge tank, and dustlessunloader to be completed byMarch 27.

During the week of March27 the collector, itself, will beinstalled and necessary fluechanges will be made.

Chester Bissett, who forfour years was labor clerk atCascade Mill, has been namedplant personnel man for theUpper Plants, replacing AngusMorrison, who has beennamed personnel man for thecompany's Maintenance De-partment in all plants, it hasbeen announced by IndustrialRelations Supervisor LoringGiven.

Here Many YearsBoth men have been with

the company for many years.Mr. Bissett joined the com-pany in 1928, after workingsummers as a Berlin HighSchool student. Mr. Morrisonhas been with the companyfor more than 25 years. Bothmen have come up throughthe ranks of the company.

Mr. Bissett worked at thewindow frame mill, in con-struction, in the towel cabinetdepartment and in the Ber-mico Division during the pe-riod from 1928 to 1934. InMarch, 1934, he went to Cas-cade, where he served in theconverting department and inmill control. In February,

-1§43, he was transferred tcrtheCascade office as maintenanceclerk.

Mr. Bissett was named Cas-cade labor clerk after his re-turn from two years servicewith the U. S. Army duringWorld War H. Last August hewas transferred to the posi-tion of specification clerk.

Mr. Morrison first served asa pulp weigher at Burgess Mill.In 1932 he became a machineoperator at Cascade. Duringthe next 10 years he workedup the ladder to the positionof night foreman in the con- Brown Company's 132 man-

There at La Tuque live someof Canada's best milk cows—cows like Mistress Becky, whowas grand champion Holsteinat the Quebec Exhibition lastfall.

One day an assistant forgotto launder the dairy's clothtowels, used in cleaning thecows.

"Shucks, let's use some pa-per towels," the superintend-ent said, in effect. He knewthe company's paper towelswere strong when wet andhad been made to take it.

The paper towels proved towork so well on this new jobthat they continued usingthem.

The Worst Feeling In The WorldNine years old and he can't play with the gang. His mother

says two or three of the boys are different and he shouldn'tassociate with them.

What does she mean different? He remembers only a fewdays ago his history teacher had told him that all Americansare the same — all citizens of one country and all workingtogether.

This kid judges the rest of the gang by their individual per-sonality, character and how they play ball — not by their raceor religion.

Each race, each religion, contributes its own talents, cultureand idealism to produce that amazing blend of ideas and vigorwhich have made America great. This boy is anxious to keephis country the way it should be — and he can do it — if wedon't influence him to the contrary!

Make sure that you are not spreading rumors against a raceor a religion. Speak up, wherever you are.against prejudice, and work for understand-ing. Remember that's being a good Americancitizen.

New Product Is ImportantTo All Of Us

You may not even know how to milk a cow, or care less. ButKowtowls are still pretty important to you.

And not only because of the fact that they help make milkproduction more sanitary.

The other night, President Whittemore emphasized to super-visors that one of the important assets of Brown Companyis the diversity of its products. Variety of products helpsstrengthen a company. If the market drops in one product.the company still has the others.

Kowtowls add to the diversity of the company's products.Sure, they are paper towels. And we've had paper towels formany, many years.

But they are not like our other paper towels. They are a newtype of towel made especially for a different type of customer.

And it shows something else. It shows that the company isalways searching for new products. The company always issearching for new markets. That makes for strength.

That's important to all of us here in the North Country. Forour own personal economic strength depends a lot on the eco-nomic strength of the company.

TAKES MUCH EQUIPMENT

Fly Ash Continuedfrom One

February 6, when piping wasrelocated. The second shut-down is scheduled for theweek of March 27, when thecollector is being connected.

Mr. Craig said that some ofthe important work can onlybe done on Sundays, when thepower demand of the com-pany is lowest. On that dayof the week not all the millsare operating.

Will Make StudiesWorks Manager E. E. Morris

said that after installation ofthe fly ash collector detailedstudies will be made. Follow-ing these studies, work willproceed in connection with afurther installation.

Installation of the fly ashcollector on No. 6 boiler willeliminate about 26 per cent ofthe total fly ash presently be-ing discharged into the airirom the soft coal boilers atthe Heine Plant, according toengineers. The collector willeliminate about 90 per cent ofthe fly ash coming from No. 6boiler.

There is much equipmentbesides the actual collectorthat is being installed. Aglance at the accompanyingdrawing will indicate some-thing of the amount of equip-ment.

At the top of the drawing isshown the basic unit. Fluegases from the boiler gothrough the fly ash collector.The fly ash is taken from theflue gases and is sucked downto the secondary collector.The cleaned gases go upthrough the exhaust stack onthe roof.

The secondary col lectorgives a final cleaning. The flyash and gases whirl aboutmuch as they do in the firstcollector. The action is likethat of a cream separator. Theash drops out at the bottom.The cleaned gases are fannedup the flue, to go through thefirst collector again.

From the secondary collec-tor, the fly ash drops througha surge tank and then into astorage tank. The surge tankis used to take care of anyrush of ash from the collector.

The storage tank is nomidget. It stands 20 feet highand is seven feet in diameter.

When the storage tank is tobe emptied, valves will open away to the rotary dustless un-loader. In this unloader, wateris sprayed on the ash to settleit and prevent its scatteringwhen it is being dumped intothe ash car.

ON ROOF

FLY ASH COLLECTOR

It takes a good deal of equipment to collect fly ash and todispose of it. Fly ash is taken from the gases in the collectorat the top. It is sucked down to the secondary collector, whereit is separated from any gases that may have been drawn downwith it. From the secondary collector, it goes to a surge tankand then to the large storage tank. When the storage tank isready to be dumped, the fly ash moves through the rotary dust-less unloader. Here water is sprayed on it to settle any dust.The ash then goes to the ash car, in which it is carried off.Dumped fly ash will be covered with bark to keep it from gettinginto the air.

and veterinarians think aboutKowtowls?

Many letters have been re-ceived telling about that.These are some samples:

From a co-operative dairyassociation in Wisconsin:"Trials of Kowtowls haveproved satisfactory, therefore,we do not hesitate recom-mending them to any otherdairy farmer for the produc-tion of clean milk and as anaid in the prevention andspread of contagious disease."

From the owner of a Jerseyfarm in Oklahoma: "I wouldlike to have them (the distrib-utors) call on me so that I cangive them some dairies wherethey can place some of thetowels very advantageously."

From the owner of a Guern-sey farm in New York State:"We are well satisfied and feelthat this is a great improve-ment in our health controlprogram and in the long runmore economical than lessmodern methods."

so you should be able to getthe exact kind and quantityto fit your needs.

However, for those of youwho still prefer to make yourown biscuits, here is a short-cut method of cutting them:Use the metal separator ofyour ice cube tray and youcan cut a whole panful in oneoperation. These come outjust about "bite-size," though,so be sure to make enough!

Hot biscuits need plenty ofbutter. If you are ever in thatspot where the butter is sohard you can't spread it, andare afraid it will become oilyif you try to soften it, thislittle pointer will be welcomedby you: Rinse a small basinwith very hot water and theninvert it over the hard butter,and your problem will besolved!

The next time you plan tograte carrots, leave about oneinch of the green tops on each,and use this as a handle asyou grate. This way you won'tbe scraping your fingers aswell, and you can use thewhole carrot!

Onions can do much to addzest and flavor to any mealand they are easy to prepareonce you know how. Probablymany of you already know theway to fix them, but forthose who haven't heard aboutthem, here are a few sug-gestions which might provehelpful.

When you need Just~~the~juice, cut a slice crosswisefrom the top of an unpeeledonion; then; use a teaspoon toscrape the surface to get thejuice.

Save the unused portion ofan onion by wrapping it inwaxed paper and storing it inthe refrigerator. Some folksprefer to put the unused partin a small pyrex custard cupand cover this with a plasticbowl cover, and then store itin the refrigerator.

To grate an onion, peel itfirst, then rub the onionagainst a grater which hasbeen placed on a piece ofwaxed paper.

For chopped onions, I preferto peel the onion, then cutinto it in such a way as tomake squares across the top.Then, turn the onion on itsside, and slice down throughit, making the slices thin orthick, according to the size Ineed. This way, the choppedpieces are more uniform insize. Some folks prefer to cut

the onion into quarters thenuse a chopper to finish thejob.

When you need onion rings,simply cut the peeled onioncrosswise into even slicesabout i,4 inch thick. Chill thesein ice water, slightly sweet-ened with sugar. Then, drainthem and let them dry.

When you boil onions, youcan be sure they will staywhole if youTL just take a min-ute or two to run a skewer(or that crochet hook) rightthrough the core of each on-ion. I've done this often, so Iknow it works!

If any of you have somespecial Lenten dishes you arewilling to share, kindly sendthem along to me here at thePortland office and I'll be gladto pass them along in a futureissue of the Bulletin. (AddressMrs. Doris E. Smith, BrownCompany, 465 Congress St.,Portland, Maine.)

The general trend in the va-rious markets served by BrownCompany was outlined by D. P.Brown, vice president incharge of sales. Mr. Brownpointed out that., so far, therehas been a strong start inmost divisions.

Discussing one of the com--pany's big assets,-the qualityof its products, Mr. Brown de-clared that "we have madetremendous strides in quality"but that we must continue toinsure the customers of get-ting what we promise themwith regard to quality.

IDEA OF KOWTOWLS CAME FROM COMPANY'S OWN TOP DAIRY FARM

The idea for Brown Company's newest product, Kowtowls, sprang fromthe dairy farm operated by Brown Corporation at La Tuque. Several yearsago, almost by accident, Nibroc paper hand towels were tried in place of theusual cloth towels then being used in washing cows' udders and teats. Theexperiment was continued and was so successful that company scientistsbegan the development of a special purpose cellulose cow towel with high

absorbent qualities, but nearly twice as strong when wet as any similarproduct previously manufactured. In the photo at the left, Roland Rondeau,herdsman at Brown Corporation, demonstrates the use of Kowtowls as TomCleland, Brown Corporation farm superintendent, watches. At the right ispictured a part of the Brown Corporation herd, including some of Canada'soutstanding milk producers.

water, to which a mild disin-fectant generally is added.Such leaders customarily usea cloth towel which must besterilized, laundered and driedbefore reuse.

Aside from the labor in-volved, there is a hazard inthis method, scientists say, incarrying over dust, dirt andbacteria from one cow to an-

other through the same clothand cleaning solution.

In this connection scientistsemphasize that mastitis, a dis-ease of the milk glands, af-flicts several million cows eachyear, among them the heavi-est producers. Cost to dairy-men is estimated to be about$600,000,000 each year in thiscountry.

These Are FeaturesNow what do the veterin-

arians and dairymen who havehelped develop and test theKowtowl have to say: Individ-ual paper cow towels are in-expensive enough to be prac-tical in the largest and small-est herd. (Cost is only about$1.70 per cow per year!) Thereis little chance of spreadinginfection or foreign matterfrom one cow to another be-cause a new, clean towel isused each time for each cow.

Kowtowls are just as good instimulating milk let-down ascloth towels. Kowtowls areeasily disposed and they elim-inate the need for sterilizing,laundering and drying, so savetime and work.

Here's the towel that will help yon help farmers pro-

KOWTOWL, developed by Brown Company re-

search, is not an old towel with a new application. It's

a completely neu- product, specifically designed to make

the washing of cows before milking easier, faster, more

efficient and more sanitary.

KOWTOWL is a sanitary, highly absorbent towel,

soft, but exceptionally strong when wet. In field tests

under observation of the Veterinary Medicine and Dairy-

Departments at Cornell University, KOWTOWL was

saturated in hot water and germicide, twisted, pulled,

manhandled generally, yet it never crumbled or fell

apart! Udders were washed clean and massaged to

stimulate let-down — one KOWTOWL did the job

quickly and efficiently.

A farmer uses it once for washing and massaging

the udder then disposes of it, using a clean, fresh

KOWTOWL for each cow.

KOWTOWL is by far the most effective way to preparecows for milking. Simple, safe, swift, it eliminateswashing and boiling cloths or rags . . . saves time. labor,trouble . . . lessens danger of infection. And all for acost as little as approximately SI.70 per cow per year!

Important in the introduction of any new product is advertising:. Readers of four important publications are learning more about Brown Company's newKowtowls through this advertisement. The ad is appearing in American Journal of Public Health and The Nation's Health, Journal of Dairy Science, Journalof Milk and Food Technology and Milk Dealer, having a combined circulation of more than 32,000. Advertisements also are appearing in Hoard's Dairyman,with a circulation of 330,000. Advertisements such as this, going directly to the farms, give important aid to the men who are selling Kowtowls. And as sales arebuilt, so also is built the security of the people who make the products.
