Résumé :
Excerpt from Compressed Air: Practical Information Upon Air-Compression and the Transmission and Application of Compressed Air

IT is only proper to say that much of the matter con tained in the following pages has appeared at intervals dur ing the pasth'two years in the columns of the American of the articles referred to and the remarks which they~.have elicited have served to em phasize to me the too evident fact of the general scarcity of practical information about air-compression and the uses of compressed air, and the wide diffusion of misinfor mation and prejudice upon this subject. In spite of it all the use of compressed air is rapidly spreading, and every where with satisfaction to the users. I would gladly do What I can to extend the field of its usefulness, and I have so much faith in its powers that I believe that the best'of all ways to advertise it is simply to tell the straight truth about it, and that I have tried to do.
