And the Rate is12 cents.

President Griffith is going after the

mina1ion to put the plant on solid foot.
ing again if such a thing is possible. He
has forced every user Of the light to put
in metres and had the machinery tested
with the view of determining how much
energy is wasted in the initial resistance.
We are told that the metres put in here
do not register the correct amount Of
current used, that they are at least twenty
per cent off in their registration but Mr..
Griffith is told by experts that this not
the case. Between these two views there
is wide chance for argument SO our
president is going to find out for: him
self. The plant is one of the frsts plants
Of lis kind in the state to lie owned and
operated by municipality, and while it
has never been used for a political foot
ball rs in other towns it has seldom been
run cll on n paying basis. Griffith insists that
it can be made to pay without any addi-
tlonal cost to the consumers and with
this Idea in mind he intends to make the
thing ttll work. A thorough system Of ac-
counting is one Of the reforms and it will
be possible at the end Of the year to show
just how much coal was used for the
electric lighting part Of the plant and
how much for the water system. This
will help some -. Sleepy Eye Dispatch.

able, by careful cutting, to meet the
needs and requirements of the pulp and
sawmills for an indefinite period, I'M
less devastating fires and ruinous wind
storms occur to cause damage and in
jury to the timber now standing and in
process of growth.
From my knowledge of the condi-
lions existing in the timber producing
regions of Maine, supplemented by the
competent judgment of many men
| versed in woodcraft, whose services |
have been able to command, I am salts
| fled that the supply of available ma
terial TO carry on our present pulp and
! lumber manufacturing establishments,
! and such others as may be built as
time goes on, is sufficient and ample;
and l firmly believe that there is mo- i'm
mediate danger of timber famine in
! this State provided the necessary pre-
cautions against wasteful cutting and
forest fires are carefully observed.
THE State of Maine is large in area,
containing 81 800 square miles of terri
tory. OF this area q 900 square miles
| is forest land. There are, 9,4I1 $50 acres
I taxed by the board of State assessors
as wholly wild land but this does not
include all of the lumber producing
land of the state. OF the plantations
taxed rs incorporated towns at least
one half their area is wild land; and
in ADDITION there is in nearly every n
corporated township from a few hun
drcd to several thousand acres of tim
berland, which, in the aggregate adds
very materially to our lumber produc
ing territory.
1T is also true that in addition to the
| land in the old Incorporated towns that
! is actually timber producing at the
present time, there are large areas once
used for agricultural purposes that
| have been allowed to go back to wood
| lands. In many instances the second
growth is small and of little or no value
| for manufacturing purposes at pre-
sent, but each year a certain percent
| age becomes tssyailable, and in the
course of a series of years large
amount of lumber will be supplied from
| this source:
There is a large territory of this
character to furnish future supply as
is likely to be deforested meanwhile.
