This new compound which is in liquid form, when added to' the water in a factory boiler or the radiator of a car, by its action in the hot water neutralizes the salts and mineral. matter preventing them from forming scale, and at the same time removes old scale from the insides of the boiler or radiator. For instance, the first week after putting the mixture in the cooling system of; your car, if you brain the radiator a heavy sediment will be noticed in the water, but in a few weeks' time with contihvted use of the compound, when the water is drained off it will be clear, showing that all scale has. ,been removed, Anyone fam- iliar' with a car knows what an ad- vantage it is to have the radiator tubes and water jacket on the engine clean. It is proposed to sell the compound for radiators in 10-ounee bottles at 50c. Three ounces put in the radiator at first and about one ounce a month added will be sufficient quantity for a season. Many local cars are using Robinson's compound a# present.. Factory boilers, of ed'urse, require a much greater quantity than a radiator, Mr. Fred Robinson has been in- terested in this compound for over thirty years, having ,first got the idea, when as an engineer in the Old Country he frequently had to climb inside the ;boiler Wand chip off scale with a chisel, and hammer. During the past three years Mr. 'Robinson has . been experimenting continuously in actual tests. The first boiler clean- ed was in 'Stratford and was one of the worst (if not the worst) for scale in Ontario. The result was entirely satisfactory to the company, who had tried various other means for' years' without success. Since then the 'boil- ers of all steam -plants and many others outside of town have •been freed from the troublesome scale and kept clean by this method. One plant which uses steam for heating purposes only, found they saved one carload of coal out of six, this win- ter, which shows what a great saving the use of the compound means to a plant using steam for power pur- poses as well as heating. The clean - ng process goes on while the boiler is in operation and the costly shut- down for boiler cleaning is eliminat- ed. The compound is being patented in both Canada -and the United States. It is positively'harmless to any part of a boiler, radiator cooling system or heating plant. Mr. Fred 'Robin- son is iii. charge of the manufacturing and Mr. Walter Robinson the selling of the compound. Fred Robinson & Son are to be congratulated for their enterprise, as, -while there are at present several other boiler -com- pounds on the market, none of them have approached the success attained. by Robinson's Boiler Compound, is the verdict of- men who have had many long years of experience with boilers.
