educational pictures for the benefit
and instruction of the school children.
The main picture will be taken from
the Salisbury celebrated “Wild Animal

Sourdough social was of exceptional
merit. The program consisted of a

BATTLESHIPS RUN
BY ELECTRICITY
The system of propulsion being in
stalled in the U. S. S. Tennessee, sup
erdreadnaught of the largest and fin
est class, now under construction, dif
fers from any now in use by battle
ships, says the Electrical Experimen
ter. Instead of the propellers being
mechanically connected to the driving
engines or turbines, there are two
steam turbines developing over 33,000
horsepower driving electric generators
which furnish current to four 6700
horsepower motors, each motor driv
ing a propeller.
Electric drive for battleships has
been adopted after a careful investiga
tion by the navy department to whom
it presented numerous features of
structural operating and military ad
vantage, among which are: That the
steam turbine developing the electric
energy may be located in any desired
portion of the ship, that the propelling
machinery may thus be better protect
ed from injury, that full power may be
available for reversing and that great
er rapidity in maneuvering is made
possible, compared wtih existing me
chanical systems of control.
In addition to the main generating
equipment and propelling motors, the
contract includes the auxiliaries for
the main turbine generator sets and
smaller auxiliary turbine generators
supplying light and power through
out the ship. The Tennessee will have
several hundred electric motors for
doing nearly all the work on board
from raising the anchor to steering.
Electricity will also be used for cook
ing, ice making, refrigeration and nu
merous other purposes. In all about
27,600 horsepower of electricity will be
needed, the amount required for a city
of about 100,000 inhabitants.
