N. P, PLANNING IMPROVEMENTS Water Softening Plants to Be Built at Bismarck, Mandan and 22 Other Points St. Paul, Oct. 17.—Plans for es- tablishment of water softening plants at Bismarck, Mandan and 22 other North Dakota and Montana ints, with a total expenditure of $300,000 were announced today at Northern Pacific offices here. Designs for the plants are now in course of preparation by the rail- road’s engineering department. The buildings required to house the new equipment are to be erected at once and will vary in dimensions dépend- ing on the requirements at each point., At Glendive, for instance, one of the more important points, | A the plant will cost $50,000. Twenty years ago, the Northern Pacific installel its first water treating plant at Dilworth, Minn., where troubles were the most acute. Since that ‘time, softeninr plants have been established at West Far- F Magnolia, Koldok, Valley City, lamestown, Medina and Dawson, representing an investment of about $140,000. To Build Plants on Slope The announcement today said that additional softening , lants are to be erected at Bismarck, Mindan, Sims, Glen Ullin, Richarc‘on, ‘inson, Belfield, Medora, Beach, Wibaux, Heckman, Glendive, Conlin, Benz, Miles City, Joppa, Fors: ers, Custer, Pompey’s Pillar, Huntley, Billings and Laurel. To complete the chain of plants, this system is expected eventually to be extended to include points as far east as Staples, Minn., and as far west as Vivingston, Mont., as well as to cover an ari' section which is traversed in eastern Wash- ington, where the only source of supply is from deep wells from which the water is unusually hard. The equipment for the new plants maghinery as well as pumping equipment of che latest design. The construction will offset large economies in locomotive mainten- 4nce and operation, and will supply its wash rooms and bath rooms on the North Coast Limited anc other Passen er trains with water which will be cystral clecr an* soft as rain ‘water. “The method of water treatment which #% to be applied is o: whic! is coming into common use in the} best hotels in the country,” E. M. Grime, engineer of water service of the railwa; mpany, said. “The Northern Pacific is eee the first railroad in the United States to supply this refinement for the comfort of the traveling pu’lic.” The expenditure just authorized is only oe of a arge outlay which eventually wil' be mad. for water scftening purposes on the Northern Pacific system. ‘ According to Mr. Grime, the prob- lem of-hard water is or that is: common to virturlly everv railroad traversing che territory between Chicago an the Rocky Mountains. t this time the Northern Pacific plans not only to soften th water used by its locomotives but also to furnish a water as soft as rain water for use in the coaches, P: 'Imans,| and observation cars as a distinct; hag to its de ‘uxe train serv-| ice. The installation of water treating | | deat) has been prompted not only | 7 the desire to reduce the cost of ' locomotive maintenance but also in an effort to make every possible im- provement in locomotive operation which will tend to expedite the movement of both freight and pas- senger traffic over the transcon- tinental system. The outstanding difficulties in lo- comotive mainten:nce and operation where hard water is used are due, first, to the formation of heavy scale which insulates tke tubes and boiler sheets cesulting in wasteful use of fuel, also leakage and other boiler troubles and, second, to.a peculiar quality of this water which causes pitting and corrosion of steel to such an extent that’ the boiler tubes which might otherwise 1. * from eight to ten years have to be eel do within a period of 18 to 24 months. will consist of steel settling tanks, chemical proportioning and mixing Water which kas been properly softened and made non-corrosive for MONDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1927 locomotives is not entirely suitable | equipment, what is known for oe Chien cial oo this br ieatmect wil be resorted to forthe son at those points abcut every jurpose 0! ii miles al The main line where Crystal clear ‘and ea er fon for wate!
