The Old-Time Water-Wheels of America
In no way is the progress in any branch of art or industry more strikingly illustrated than by a glance at the methods in use a century or more ago. The annals of the American Society of Civil Engineers are supposed to be a repository of American practice and American methods in engineering. The writer, therefore, deems it no unworthy task to collect for preservation therein such examples as he can of the motors and methods employed by our ancestors of the preceding century in availing themselves of the power of water.
