Federal Fisheries Bureau Expands Artificial Propagation Efforts
The bureau of Fisheries under the Department of Commerce and Labor reports growth in water animal propagation to increase the food fish supply. It operates 83 hatcheries and 14 sub hatcheries, with about 80 species propagated, and conducts coastwise research aboard the Albatross, Fish Hawk, and Grampus. Notable programs include transferring shad and striped bass to the Pacific, and developing railcars for rapid movement of eggs and fry.

Wax Models Led to Dreadnought Design Decisions
The British Admiralty built many wax models and tested them in a naval tank at Haslar near Portsmouth before choosing the final Dreadnought design. More than fifty wax prototypes were created and tested to verify claims of performance, with each new battleship type undergoing similar miniature evaluations before construction. The Washington navy yard recently updated its practice, and modern designs continue to involve costly testing to validate new ideas before full-scale construction.

Ship Models and Hull Design in Water Tank Studies
The article describes ship models from 18 to 47 feet long and 49 feet wide, tested in a water tank to study bow shapes, hulls, and speed. It explains towing-platform setups, electric motors, and wave-control features, noting new tank inventions like troughs and wave pegs for realistic testing.
