Excerpt from The Locomotive, 1894, Vol. 15 Papers that borrow cuts from us will do us a favor if they will mark them plain/y in returning, that we may give proper credit on our books. WE desire to acknowledge the receipt from Chief Engineer Guido Perelli of the Reports for 1891 and 1892 of the Milan Associazione fra gli Utenti di Caldaie a Vapore. Some time ago we had the pleasure Of noticing in these pages Mr. Simpson Bol land's Iron Founder, and now we have received from Messrs. John Wiley Sons, of 53 East Tenth street, New York, a copy of another work by the same author. Mr. Bolland calls his new book The Iron Founder Supplement, but as it contains about 400 pages and 200 illustrations it would seem as though it were entitled to a more pretentious name. We have read it with considerable profit, and we can commend it to any one interested in iron founding or any of the branches of industry connected therewith. The Builders Iron Foundry of Providence, R. I., has favored us with an interesting pamphlet on The Venturi Meter, an instrument (if one may call it so) for measuring the flow of water through pipes. It is. Certainly a unique device. The water does not flow through any measuring apparatus at all, in the ordinary sense of the word. The indica tions of the meter depend on the general principles of hydraulics pointed out by the Italian philosopher Venturi in 1796; that is, on the relation between the velocities and pressures of fluids when flowing through converging and diverging pipes.
