its rarity the price was very high. But
latter-day prospecting has resulted in the
finding of vast bodies Of the ore, and the
price has correspondingly dropped to about
81 a pound. 1t would be even lower than
this but for the difficulties in refining the
metal Only with the electric furnace is
it possible to produce tungsten in its pure
form. Pure tungsten is hard enough to
scratch glass; it is almost impossible to
melt it: it is maleable to some extent,
but not ductile. Because it cannot be
drawn into wire the wlre-like tilaments
employed in the electric lamps are made
by a commercial laboratory process.
These new tungsten incandescent lamps.
with the same consumption of energy and
expense to the consumer for current. give
nearly three times the illumination of the
old carbon lamps. The lighting companies
were quick to see the advantages of this
wonderful improvement, and are now en-
couraging their customers to use the new
lamps. making it plain to them that they
can obtain three times as much light OF
a better quality for the same money.
To those whose homes and business
places were already abundantly lighted it
was apparent that the new lamps would
easily give the same light as the common
incandescent lamps for one-third the cost.
4 home that was lighted by electricity for
s.. 35 month could be lighted with the
new lamps for IS cents. Not only that,
but the light from the new tungsten
lamps proved to be nearly pure white.
akin to actual sunshine, soft, pleasing.
and beneficial to the eyes. and not of a
yellow cast like the common incandescent
lamps.
Within the past few months tungsten
has revolutionized the electric lighting
world, and has proved the greatest boon
to the consumers of electric light since
the discovery of the incandescent lamp

Wasted Resources.
bennington Banner.)

This recent talk of attempts by group
of financiers to get control of the chief
water powers of the country has attract
ed renewed attention to the development
of power from the rapid flowing streams
which are so numerous throughout nearly
all sections of the United States
Right here in Vermont hundreds OF
thousands of horse, power 60 to waste !:
every year Right here in the county OF
Bennington could be developed probably
twenty-five times all the power that Is
now used for manufacturing and traction
purposes in the county and at cost OF
from third to a half that of steam
power.
No one but an expert can even estimate
the amount of power that runs away, with
the melting SHOWS OF winter ana the
heavy rain storms of spring that tall down
the channels of our swiftly flowing noun
tain streams. The time is coming when
this power will be utilized and the de
creasing coal supply of the world Will be
conserved for furnishing warmth only.
The new dam on the Connecticut below
Brattleboro is we believe, furnishing pow
er at the price of S25 per horse power per
wear in spite of the tremendous expense
of damming big river like the Connectl-
cut and the long distance that the power
has to be transmitted. Steam power costs
power per year according to the price OF
coal and the quantity used. The CON
tinued use of coal for power producing Is
useless extravaganza as well as de,
structon of a national resource that Will
sometime be needed for other purposes.
There is not available here water
power like that at Vernon, but the head
waters of the Walloomsac might well FUR
nish all the power now used in Bennlng-
ton and have enough left to attract here
other new business enough to double the
size and wealth of the town. The rapid
fall of the streams makes the aggregate
of power something tremendous. There
are storage sites in Bickford Hollow, on
the Dunnvile and on the Glastonbury
stream. and biggest of all, at the head OF
He'll Hollow where the big marsh might at
comparatively small expense be changed
into an immense reservoir.
Not only is there opportunity here, but
there is also money enough if our local
capitalists could be induced to invest IT
at home instead of sending it outside the
state. Why don't some of them try. 1T
instead of using their wealth to develop
towns and properties from thousand to
three thousand miles away?

\ hog-disinfecting device is among the
novelties described with illustration in
the October Popular Mechanics. 1t Is an
absolutely automatic device which enables
every hog to disinfect himself, and the re
suits. although he is only thinking of the
rubbing. are 50 pleasing that he becomes a
willing auxiliary to the operation. All
that Is necessary in the operation is to
keep the tank filled with the disinfectant
and to place it where the hogs have ac-
cess to it. lever is covered with bur
lap. and when the hog rubs against it the
action opens a valve. releasing the con
tents of the pipe leading from the disin-
fectant tank and spraying it over his back.
This also closes valve at the base of the
tank so that the hog will only get his
share of the disinfectant. When the pres
sure against the lever IS removed it
springs back to its original position clos
ing the valve at the spray head and open
ing the valve at the base of 1.-The tank.
This automatically reloads the spray pipe.
