Submitted by DIR. Mallet, of the
University of Virginia,

After many months Of hard labor and
experimental tests, DR.. z. c. Levy has
prepared one of the best reports on the
meteorological condition of James river
that has ever been made public. It en-
tailed d great deal OF his time and is
of greatest interest to the citizens Of
Richmond. It would occupy about eight
or rine columns in pemspaper. The
Times here prints a review of the en-
tire report.
DR.. Levy's report was not confined to
simple statements of&the results Of the
meteorological Investigations, but dealt
further with the general consideration
of James river water and water sheds.
with methods of publication of public
water supplies in general. and several
other questions Of like nature. Special
stress was laid upon the necessity of
realizing the indicat tons to be fulfilled
Publication of public water supplies may
be undertaken for either one or both of
the two objects. The most obvious con-
t;t:on demanding rectification is just
the one which contronts us at present,
namely, the unsightly appearance due TO
suspended matter contained in the water.
