A MOTOR FOR BOATS.
Unique Electrical Continuance That
Is Situated Entirely Outside I'm
the Water.

Practically all boats which are pro-
PEELED by electric power have the
motor, as well as the battery, inside,
and a long, horizontal shaft, which
carries the screw, passes through the
stem. An innovation has been made
by a western inventor. He inclOses
the motor in a water-tight, globulaC.
shell, which is combined with the
rudder, rudder post and screws in
such manner that they all are out
side. There is no shaft at all. The
Hopkinsville Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1889-1918, 1901-10-04

storage battery is inside, of course,
and wires lead the current from, it to
the motor. The especial virtue OF
this arrangement is that tho motor
is portable, and can be attached to
almost any boat having square
stern. II is not necessary TO build
expressly for the use of electricity.
The apparatus can be attached to
the boat in a few minutes, and re-
moved in an equally quick fashion.
The batteries are placed under the
seats of the boat.
The motor not only propels the
boat, but steers ii as well, the boat
answering to it more readily than to
an ordinary rudder.
The motor drives the boat forward
or backward, and can be regulated
to run at any speed up to four miles
an hour using two boxes of four
cells, and will run from 20 to 30 miles
on one charge. More cells may be
used, and a speed of six miles an
hour attained, If desired, Each bat
terry box containing two cells weighs
about so pounds, and is provided
with a comfortable handle for carry

A ChiCken.Eating Horse.

We have heard of man-eaters
of various kinds, and have seen
snake-eaters at the circus, but
have never yet heard tell of Z
horse that would eat chickens.
Here comes the Henderson(Ky.)
Cleaner with the following yarn:
"The fondness of spring chick
ems is not confined to Methodist
preachers. In Colesburg there
is a horse that is equal to a whole
Methodist Conference in his
ravages upon poultry yard. 1t
is no unusual thing for him to
eat half dozen spring chickens
at a meal. Last Sunday for din
ner he consumed fourteen. He
runs after them and as he
catches them devours them
feathers and all. The appetite
on the part of the equine has on
ly recently developed, but it has
been sufficiently voracious to
put Mr.. Stoval, his owner, out of
the poultry business in short
order"

Successful Turkey Raising.

us, is about as good, practical in
formation as one can wish.

them.

customers want the largest,
heavy weight turkeys for breed

are early they do not get ready
