ITO be Continued
Naval Battles at Long Range.

Three of the new 45-caIibre 9.2-inch
coast guns are being mounted at Do
yer. They are sighted up to $4,000
yards. These guns fire lyddite shell,
and such shell fired eXperimentally
have flung fragments mile away.
Against ships there seems no reason
why such guns, mounted high up and
we'll supplied with range finders.
should not fire and stand some chance
Of hitting at a range of six or seven
miles. These 45-calibre guns are not
mounted afoat in our service, though
the French are fond Of that length for
all naval guns. Without range find
ers it is a waste Of powder to fire at
any range much over 1000 yards, prob
ably, at sea. for the range must be
known to a yard almost. But even
with such appliances, the naval battle
of the future should begin directly
the ships sight each other. 1t is a
cheerful prospect, when one bad hit
may mean out Of action.-London En-
Cineer

INTERIOR OF COVERING ORANGE GROVE OB TH1R1


curely as possible to prevent the ma
terial from being torn by the high
winds which frequently accompany
changes of weather in Florida.
Some Of the groye-owners remove
the sheds and tents in the spring and
replace ,.hem at the beginning Of win
ter in order to give the trees the bene-
fit Of the light and air. In ordinary
weather the roofs and sides Of the
sheds are left open, as otherwise the
fruit would not mature rapidly enough
and would be Of poor quality. At
all of the towns in the orange-grow-
ing centre are telegraph Offices con-
nected with the United States Signal
Service Bureau at Washington. If a
'cold wave" is predicted the fruit
growers order all Of their employees
into the groves to close the sheds and
draw the tents. These coverings will
keep the air from fifteen degrees to
twenty degrees warmer than without
the protection; but it may be necessary
to use artificial heat. In the large
sheds fires of pine wood are sometimes
made, but as there is danger Of ig-
hitting the framework from the sparks
"salamanders" are preferred. These
are merely large rings Of cast iron
which overlap each other and in which
coke or wood can be burned. They dis
tribute the heat much more than an
ordinary stove and confne the sparks.
Stoves are also used in various forms
according to the size Of the shed, and
the heat is conveyed by means Of long
stretches of sheet-iron pipe through
the rows Of trees. In the tents hand
