Electric Power in Canada.

bill recently enacted by the Ontario
er electric power, the power being pro-
cured from Niagara Falls, The propo-
nent OF the bill stated that current could
be procured at Niagara at sl2 per horse
power, and could be carried to Toronto,
SO miles. and sold for SIT. The main
feature Of the bill is the appointment OF
a permanent commission to apporton
the cost of transmitting electric current
among the municipalities which decide
TO go into the scheme, The commission
will negotiate with the development COM
panes for a supply to meet the stated
demands If the companies are reason
able in their prices. contracts Will be
entered into on behalf of the municipali-
ties. In case the prices are not salts
factory. the commission will have power
TO erect development plant or expro-
pirate. The price OF power at the point
of development Will be the same TO ALL
no matter what amount OF power may
be used. The cost OF transmission Will
depend upon the amount and the dis
tance,
The scheme does not apply to Niagara
Falls district alone. Wherever there Is q
development the municipalities in the
district may apply to the power commits
sion. and the electric power Will be sup
piled. There are other features OF the
bill which are worthy of more than the
mere stating. The commission may fur
nish power TO railways or distributing
companies. and whatever profits accrue
will go toward tightening the burdens Of
the municipalities

Power From Refuse,

Several small towns near Birmipg ham,
England, have combined to erect q plant
FOR disposing Of refuse and at the same
time furnish electrical power The old
system of refuse disposal was unsatis-
factory from a sanitary point of view and
cost S263S per annum. Under the new
method, as the heat produced by the
combustion of ashes, etc, means steam,
1t is calculated there will be from this
source an annual income Of $1,000 to $4,000,
The Council has turned over to an cleo
trical syndicate the rights to generate
and sell electricity. and the syndicate
contracts to pay al least $4,000 year
for the use of the steam from the de-
structor The syndicate will build a
plant near the destructor to generate
electricity for power and light. and
doubtless will soon be able to use all the
steam the destructor can produce.

SCIENCE NOTES.
Trailing Skirts Forbidden.

The municipal authorities OF Nord-
hausen, Germany, have forbidden the
wearing of dress trains on ladies' skirts
inside the city limits. Last year, Ito
prevent danger to health and annoyance
by raising OF dust" the police board for
bade the ladies to allow their dress
trains to drag on certain promenades and
principal streets. BY recent action OF
the health commission, this order has
been extended 10 cover the entire city,
and disobedience shall bo punished more
severely than formerly. The present
penalty for violations of this ordinance
is by fine not exceeding STA, or lmpris-
onment for a corresponding number OF
days. This, so far as cap be ascertained
is the first city in Germany TO put itself
on record as opposed TO this menace TO

For Marking Skirts,

The usual method In marking the length
OF the skirt Is to have the wearer stand on
the table and the marking done by hand
How much more accurately and easily 1t
could be accomplished by the contrivance
shown here, 1t is so simple that q glance
at the illustration Immediately indicates
It's purpose. Mounted above circular
base is platform upon which the in
tended wearer of the skirt stands. Ex-
tending from the base is an arm. so
shaped as to bring a marker directly In
front OF tho bottom of the skirt. This
marker moves freely and can be regu-
lated TO any position. After determining
the length OF the skirt, the marker is
properly adjusted and the arm carrying
the marker revolves around the base
When making the circuit chalk line is
thus very plainly made on the skirt.

thus greatly increased. In the operation
OF an electric motor considerable heat is
generated in the motor windings-so
much so that the problem of keeping
the motor cool has received considerable
attention In the heater shown here the
inventor aims TO utilize this heat for
warming the car. To do this the heat
generated in the motor windings is con-
yeyed into tho car by a current Of air,

Council tonight adopted a resolution de-
claring at an end all negotiations be-

EXTENSIBLE WASHER.
Length of the Handle Gan Be Regulated

Usually in washing windows brush is
attached To a long pole to enable the
operator to reach the top OF the window.
In the case OF plate glass windows in
store fronts the extremely long pole pre-
vents successful use during the day. This
is SO inconvenient that In many cities
ordinances provide that store windows
shall be washed only between certain
hours in the morning TO prevent inter-

on the roller. SO that after running the
roller over the sheet of dough the de-
