UTILIZATION OF NATURAL Forces.—In a lecture recently delivered by Dr. Siemens on the utilization of heat and other natural forces, some very suggestive facts were stated. He showed, among other things, how heat can be made to do a greater amount of work than ever by means of electricity. One hundred horse-power of steam or water may be used, for instance, ata central or convenient place to drive dynamo-electric machines. The cur- rent there produced could, ducted to halis or factories an into light or mechanical power.
