recent Heavy Rains Have Kept Reser-
voirs and Streams Flu.

The remarkable rainfall of the sum-
mer has undoubtedly been of great ser
vice to cotton manufacturers and other
mill men, for full reservoirs and water
running over the mill dams means a
great saving in fuel. This has been the
cosa along the Pawtuxet Valley, par
ticularly at Coventry and Arctic. where
the water was within seven inches OF
the cap log OF the dam. yesterday, ana
the big mill at Arctic Is running its
40 900 spindles. and nearly lloo iooms
entirely by water power.
II has always been necessary hereto
fore to use steam in order to run the
mill i'm the middle Of August, and TINS
by no means applies to the Arctic mil
alone. but in fact to all the mills aiohe

abundance of water is concerned. the
Conditions are similar to those whicf
obtain in the winter time.
