H HARVESTING THE WAVES
\ MECHANISM FOR GETTING POWER

Many attempts have been made to devise apparatus
which shall accomplish this object, but thus far
the great majority of them have proved unsatis-

for the amount of power they furnish They are
apt to be rather complicated. also. Still another
drawback is that they rarely work uniformly and
continuously. The Scientific American" however
describes wave motor. owned by the city OF
Santa Cruz Cal. which has been in use for four
years and which that periodical prOnounces the
'only practical and efficient" mechanism OF its
kind in existence to-day.
The site chosen for this motor is just inside the
edge OF a cliff against which the waves beat with
fun force. TWO wells. one eight feet IN diameter
and the other five feet across, have been sunk In
the land "a level lower than the lowest ebb tide
and close beside each other. Thence a horizontal
opening is made to the ocean. In <ne well a hoat
