HOLES IN THE CANVAS.
An Important Discovery Increasing the
Efficacy of Sails.


An italian sea captain, Clio Batta
Vasallo, of Genoa, has made a very in
teresting innovation in the use of sails
of ordinary sailing vessels. He claims,
says the Philadelphia Record, that the
force of wind cannot fully take effect in
a sail, since the air in front of it cannot
properly circulate in the inflated part,
and remains stationary Immediately in
front of part of the sail proper. He
avoids this stagnation of air, as he calls
1T, by the application of a number of
small holes in that part of the sail
where the depression is deepest when it
is filled; these holes are reinforced like
a buttonhole so that they viii not tear
out. Trials made in various weather
have resulted as follows: With light
wind, a boat with ordinary sails made
four knots, while the new sail increased
the speed to 5L knots. In fresh breeze
the respective speeds were seven and
SA knots; and in a strong wind they
were eight and ten knots per hour 1t
stands to reason that the doing away
with layer of air. which cannot escape
past the sides of the sail, must increase
the efficiency of the sailboat. Where
the wind formerly struck n cushion of
air which acted like spring mattress,
decreasing the actual pressure of the
wind against the canvas. this current of
air now strikes the sail direct. and. of
course, has a greater efficiency Vasal-
10 has received much encouragement
from practical sailors as well as the
oretical scientists.
