Spencean Philanthropist Society plan for common property
The Spencean Society advocates abolishing lordship and feudal privilege and transferring land waters and mines to a national partnership held in common. A board would lease property to tenants at will with preference to occupiers, profits shared among the people after expenses. The piece urges government action to implement a global cooperative system as a cure for societal ills.

Ingenious Pumping Apparatus by Captain Leslie
Capt Leslie devised a clever pump system using a spar and pulleys to drive a pump with a water filled balance cask as the counterweight.

Ingenious navigators may improve on this method for future practice.
