great weight and bulk ot the Die-
sels have been‘ the obstacles to

their economies in fuel. Nowthey

much as a steam marine engine de-
veloping similar power at the same
speed. They take a. little less
space. They have a shade 0! ads
Vantage in the crew required. and
they consume less than halt the
fuel that an oil burning steamship
does. All this means an enormous
saving in operating expenses. N .
The Diesel type operates on the
same principle that an automobile
engine deemzbut it‘usu crude. oil
instead of gasoline. There is no
electric spark tor ignition. Hated
vaporised oil is injected into the
hell. '0! course it immediately is
consumed and the process brings
about expansion in the cylinder and
the action of the piston, just as the
tiring of gasoline in your Ford
cylinder does.
Diesels nesting Ste'amshlps
The advantage at the new engine
is that it is double noting. that is.
the cylinders furnish power on
both the down stroke and up stroke
Since not as many cylinders are
required as in the single-acting
type. weight is cut down vastly.
The. engines burn \only three-
sevenths of the amount or fuel re-
quired‘ in steam propulsion. For
trans- oceanic cargo runs, where
costar. moving freight is the prime
motor, the Diesel new used is
always cheaper than steam. N
