I claim:
1. As a new article of manufacture, a

having longitudinal recesses in their upper
faces receiving the strips, the alternate
blocks being of the same length with the
adjacent blocks of different lengths.
5 2. A burner of the character described,
comprising an elongated flared manifold
having a longitudinal open-ended channel
in its upper face, and a removable grid
fitting said channel and comprising lon
gitudinal strips and blocks fixed to the 20
strips. m
3. A burner of the character described,
comprising an elongated flared manifold
having a longitudinal channel in its upper
face, and a removable grid fitting said chan
nel and comprising longitudinal strips and
blocks fixed to the strips, and integral
spacers across the base of the channel and
supporting certain of the blocks of the grid
