Damming the Mississippi.

y great engineering project is now
utilize Il great amount of water power
which is now going to waste. Oppo-
site keokuk. Iowa, the Mississippi has
a drop of "A feet in q distance OF l.
miles. The government has built a
canal around the rapids. but this fall
has not been utilized, although it has
a potentiality Of 212.00O horse power.
To dam the Mississippi would have
been regarded as wild dream a gen
Grafton ago. but modern engineering is
tackling almost anything. and it is
proposed To build $4,000. 600 dam
across the river at Kcokuk in order 10
convert this "A foot fall into electric
power. While this comparatively
not furnish the power that Niagara
would if the Falls were drained dry.
ii viii give as much AZ Niagara river
now furnishes and as much as that
river can supply without the beauty
Of the falls being visibly impaired. II
will give enough To make Kcukuk ana
vicinity n great manufacturing center.

new field without harming any inter
50 except tn, improvements made at
| that point by tn, United States gov
-runrut and which. with the consent
uf that government will b.. submerged
ana replaced.
tn" engineer i'm charge of this pro-
| j"ctrd Improvement is the same who
| built the dam across the Susqu"hanna
lat McCalrS Ferry. in Pennsylvania.
| There is no reason why the rapids of
|rv'ry considerable river which have
heretofore been an obstruction to com
mtrce should not now To- made its as
| Sistant ANA promoter by being con
vrrtrd into electric power. The coun-
try is rich in this source Of potential
wealth. 1t is not necessary To destroy
| Niagara in order to secure from water
power now going to waste all the cleo
| tlic power the country can utilize
| The Mississippis even flow is almost
ldtvuid Of these opportunities, but the
rapids at krnkuk, long an obstruction
are likely To prove one of the very val
| liable assets of that most valuable
river.

At one of the smaller Maine fairs this
year squash weighing 81 pounds was
ON exhibition. and if anybody has
raised a bigger squash in the state this
year he has not yet been heard from.
From Vermont comes the story of
IL pumpkin weighing 322@ pounds on
exhibition at the BrattlebOrO fair. We
are some pumpkins down here in
Maine, but in comparison with any
thing which we can do i'm this line the
weight Of this Vermont Specimen is
such as to suggest that the man who
raised it must have stood on the scales
when il was weighed.
