NEW ENGLAND TRADE NOTES.

ALBERT & J. M. ANDERSON, of Boston, have recently received orders for large numbers of their bell insulators made out of their new insulating material called "AEtna," They have also supplied the Buffalo Street Railway Company with about 5,000 pieces, and have done a large amount of work for the Brooklyn Street Railway Company. AEtna has been put to several severe tests, among which may be cited a crucial test, consisting of boiling a number of AEtna insulators in water for several hours. When cooled off the material was found to be just as good and as perfect in shape as before the test. The Messrs. Anderson are building at present some very handsome large switchboards of slate and marble, which are well worth seeing, their reputation for this class of work being very high both for electrical and mechanical excellence.
