Special Type for Clay Plants Proves Efficient and Essential
A Few years ago it was thought with the installation of trackage
and small dump car pulled by a mule or a tram hoist, the very acme of
efficency had been obtained in clay haulage from the pit. With the
advent of the modern clay plant, with its large capacity and the
increased demand for greater efficiency in clay haulage the clay worker
began to look about for a better and more imporved method of getting his
clay from the pit and especially where there was long haulage. This
demand has brought out the steam locomotive and other methods of
haulage.*** DO NOT COPY

The Dewey engine, because of its exclusive design, is especially
adapted to the clay plant and owing to its extreme lightness and its
great pulling power, and its flexibility, it readily can go into and out
of most any clay pit with ease. The Dewey is chain driven and will take
