mination of the number of feet OF fall

tant feature is the determination OF

necessary for this purpose that 1T may

pended on during the dry season, when
the streams are at their lowest stage.
The Investigations OF the subjects
above outlined and many others would
furnish q broad field Of usefulness Tor
a State survey, and the results OF the
Investigations Of such bureau should
be properly. embodied In publications,
accompanied by the necessary maps
aud illustrations. and issued by otlciai
authority ofathe.State.
The returns from such work would,
as has been shown by the surveys in
Other States, be repaid many times
over by the impetus given to Indus
trial activity OF all kinds within The
State.
The general government at Wash
ington annually spends hundreds OF
thousands of dollars in scientific and
economic Investigations. This money
goes almost exclusively to those pOr-
tlOns OF the country where people
evince 81 licient interest the devel'
Opment of their resources to spend
some money in their own behalf. None
OF it has been coming to South Caro-
lima. When a State thus shows its in
terests in developing its own resources
there Is usually but little trouble In
getting the general government to
spend an equal or even Il larger sum
in work within that Stat. One Of
these governmental bureaus, tho
Unlted States geological survey, has
offered, through its director, Mr.. Chas
d. Walcott. to spend. on the basis of q
State appropriation Of 81, 600 annually,
at least as much as the State itself cX-
