The space occupied for any setting is not more thanfour feet square. The governor body is of heavy design andneat in appearance. All enclosed parts are easily attendedto during operation. The flyball is of the strongest possible These three operations can be changed at a moments noticeby touching one lever. There was an impression for many years that it wasnecessary to go to Euroi>e for high-class hydraulic turbinesof this class, but Allis-Chalmers-Bullock, Limited, has shown THE CANADIAN ENGINEER Volume 22. that this is no longer the case. In fact the efficient designand thorough workmanship shown in the turbines which theyhave built have recently k&pt in Canada orders which for-merly went abroad. • ^ m CANADIAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL E. A.
