A note should be supplied to owners to whom springs fitted up in the new manner are supplied, informing them that we have adopted a new method for protecting and lubricating our springs, and that they must not therefore use the lubricators, as the oil will not penetrate our new protection and reach the plates, and that lubricators will be deleted from our gaiters in the near future.
