Company Records Series -- Edison Ore Milling Syndicate, Ltd., and Related Companies -- Bound Volumes: Experiments (1899-1900)
[CJ437]

This book covers the period November 1899-May 1900. It contains notes, drawings, calculations, and test reports relating primarily to experiments conducted by James B. Ballantine on ores. Most of the entries are in the hand of an unidentified author, but there is one page of notes and calculations by Edison pertaining to sight-feed experiments. Another note regarding the price and consumption of soda for briquettes bears the initials "T.A.E." Also included is a report entitled "Report of Cement Arch Test No. 3," along with notes concerning a "hematite machine" for Dunderland ore. Portions of the book are transcriptions of notes contained in N-99-11-29 (see "Notebooks by Edison" in the Notebook Series). The spine is stamped "Record" and is labeled "Experiments." The book contains 401 numbered pages; many pages are blank.
