W shocks arising in this kind of
work. but also in the navy and other
fields where the use Of electric motors
is nov becoming general.
This kind of gearing is. in fact. well
adapted to work in a number Of cases
where q large amount Of power Ia to
be taken from an electric motor. In
view Of the increasing demand for the
gearing the factory above referred to
was erected In Paris exclusively for
producing ~herringbone gears. and ow-
ing to the specialization of this work
It is now turning out gears Of high
quality and precision. In consequence
the French navy is now making use Of
these gears largely. They are used
upon a number Of the battleships of
the feet for driving some Of the ma
chinery on board. They are also en-
ployed in the Transvaal mines. where
thirty-one gear sets serve for electric
winches of $50 to 900 horsepower. and
tw~enty-three sets are used for tube
mills.

PRESERVATION OF FISH.
New Method Dess Away With Uso ~
Salt, Ice and Pickle.

A new method Of curing fish recently
introduced in Halifax, N. s.. and. being
experimental with by one Of the lar.
gest shippers of fish in that city, PROM
Uses to revolutionize the entire fish In
dustry In the maritime provinces and
in other countries carrying on this in
dustry to any marked degree. This
method does away entirely with the
use of ice, salt, pickle or other preserv-
atives and so perfectly preserves the
dsh that two weeks after preservation
(Which is sufficient time for this impor-
tant food article to reach cities in Gen.
trail United States, West Indies and
some ports in South America) the fish
Is exactly as 1t was when drawn from
its native water.
Previously 1t has been the practice
to salt and sun dry all fish to be pre-
served. or should they be intended for
nearby markets either ice them or ship
in cars equipped with refrigerating
apparatus. The new method. It Is
claimed. abolishes this slow and expen.
sive practice and enables the shipper
to prepare quickly and i~nexpensively
his shipments in such n way that the
product two weeks after shipment and
in a foreign market would rival the
highest quality Of fresh fish. The proc.
ess used Is as follows:
The fish are dumped into a tank
holding sea water which has been FL
tered through four cylinder-like tanks
containing willow charcoal and screens
to remove the n%oxious gases and for
eign substances.
Next brown sugar is placed in the
tank holding the fish to serve as a
germicide for such organisms as may
be active at freezing temperature.
Then by refrigeration the temperature
is lowered to 10 degrees G. below zero.
during which time 1911 per cent salt
is added to prevent ice formation and
to assist the formation of n thin pro-
tective coating over the fish them
selves. Having allowed the fish to re-
main in this treatment for two hours.
they are ready for shipment. removed
from the tank and placed in the pack
age or barrel to await transportation
to market
This process is based upon the the
Org that putrefaction of fish is first
caused by bone faint, due to the fact
that in the old methods Of curing fish
the specific or animal heat is partially
left within the fish. The new method
which has been introduced here acts as
a preventive to bone faint. complete

NEW M0T0RCAR WHEEL.
Horizontal HeIicaI Syringe Take Place
Of Pneumatic Tires.

Horizontal HeIieaI Syringe Take Place
Of Pneumatic Tires.
On account Of the unavoidable, in
herent disadvantages Of the ordinary
type Of pneumatic automobile tire de-
signers have been striving for several
years to bring forth a tire with pune
ture proof qualities, yet retaining the
necessary r~esiliency to afford desirable
riding qualities, says the Scientific
American. To this end n wheel
manufacturer in particular claims to
have solved the problem. The funda-
mental idea Of the wheel is the carry
ing of the load on horizontal helical
springs connected alternately to the
outer and inner rims with ball and
socket connections. There are four
teen Of these springs arranged around
the periphery Of the wheel rim In such
a manner that each spring carries one
fourteenth of the total load on the
wheel.
When the q strikes an obstruction
the shock is communicated through the
solid rubber and Is taken up by the
reaction Of the helical springs. The
center of the wheel is made in the
same way az an ordinary automobile
wheel, but its lateral strength is in
creased since the spokes are much
shorter than in the usual construction.

consists Of heating 1t slowly to a dull
cherry red and then removing It from

soft stick. When the steel has cooled
% that the wood ceases to char plunge
the steel quickly into Q bath Of oil and

desired.
Another method is to heat the steel
slowly to q dull red and then allow It
to lie in the ashes for q few minutes
until 1t becomes almost black. Then
drop It into soapsuds and allow 1t to
