Thermometer Boasts Dial-Type Scale
A new type of laboratory thermometer, provided with a dial-and-pointer scale encased in stainless steel and mounted atop an eight-inch stainless steel stem, has been developed by a well known manufacturer in Newark, N. J. The unit is said to be the first dial-type thermometer with an all-metal temperature element sufficiently accurate for scientific use, accuracy of 1/2 of 1% over the entire scale being guaranteed by the manufacturer.
