Alany advantages are claimed lor corrugated ships, the use of which is increasing on the north-east coast of England. The design consists of the addition of two fore and aft corrugations along each side which merge into the normal ends of the ship. The main object is to increase the rigidity.of the side by forming what are essentially girders of groat strength. These subdue the waves made by the ship, and reduce vibration and rolling. They also increase speed and reduce fuel consumption, according to reports of shipowners. TH E MIDDLED AM CASTLE. Alessrs J. W. Swift and Co. advise that Hie C. and D.
