THE CONCRETE BOAT.
Italian Engineers Succeed in Cor.
structng Such Vessel

The success of Italian engineers
with concrete as material for build
ing boats is eXerting an influence on
marine experts of other countries to
such an extent that a large number OF
experiments are in progress with re
suits that may mean much for the fu-
tuTe.
Concrete has, without doubt. MANY
excellent points as a shipbuldng ma.
terial In the first place it offers less
resistance 10 propulsion in water than
wood or steel and no painting is re.
CURED. In the second, the cost of con-
crete boats is about one-half that OF
steel and the maintenance cost is com.
paratiyely nothing
Its strength and practical indestruc-
Jibility is also a great factor in its
favor. In a recent test made bv the
Italian government, a 1000-ton con.
crete boat was rammed by a much
larger steel vessel The result was
serious damage to the steel craft and
very little harm TO the concrete boat
Various trials of this nature have led
the Italian government to consider
armoring its warships with concrete.

the fact that at night a moving wheel
frequently appears to revolve abnor-

appearing to stop, and still again

in the light emitted from an electric

changes its direction. in some cases 40
times per second, and in others as
many as 80 times per second.
In order that the current may
change its direction, there must be an
ms ant in every reversal when there
is momentary but entire cessation Of
the current. and this cessation neces-

form Of very short flicker.
Owing to a peculiar property of this
