WILL KEEP CITY WA
 TER SUPPLY PURE

that the interests of cities and towns which obtain their water from streams having their water sheds within National Forests call for special measures of pro- lection, and he has therefore de- veloped a plan of co, operation for the Department of Agricul- ture with those communities which are alive to the import ance ot keeping their water sup ply pure.
 There are many western towns and cities, some of them of large size, which derive their water from drainage basins lying in- side the National Forests. One ot the recognized objects of for estry is to insure the permanence and protect the purity of muni cipal water supplies. As tke for ests are maintained for the ben. eft of the public, Secretary Will son considers it the duty of his department to do all that 1t can both 70 prevent the pollution of such supplies and to create or maintain conditions most favor able to constant flow of clear water.
 Stock raising and occupancy of the land for the various kinds of use which are ordinarily en- couraged on the National For csts may be highly undesirable if allowed on drainage basins which are the sources of drink- ing water. There is also to be considered the injury which may be done if the water is silt-laden By protecting and improving the forest cover and by enforcing special regulations to minimize erosion and to provide for the maintenance of sanitary condi- tions, the Government will try to safeguard the interests of the public.
 A form of agreement has been drawn up, providing that, when cooperation is entered into be tween the Secretary of Agricul- ture and any city desiring con- servation and protection ot its water supply, the Secretary will not permit the use of the lanu involved without approval by the town or city except for the protection and care of the for ests, marking, cutting and dis posing of timber which the for est officers find may be removed without injury to the water SUD- ply of the city, or for the build. ing of roads, trails, telephone lines, etc., not inconsistent with the objects of the agreement, or for rights of way acquired under acts oi Congress. The Secretary also agrees to require all per sons employed on or occupying any of the land both to comply with the regulations governing National Forests and to observe all sanitary regulations which the city may, propose and the Secretary approve.
 The agreement provides foi the extension and improvement of the best methods of silvicul ture and forest management, sc far as the funds available vii permit. The city on its side is expected to assist in the work by paying the salaries of the addi tional guards necessary to car ry out the agreement, and 1T case extensive forest operatoin: are immediately desired by the city, it would bear the major part Of the cost entailed by thi: work.

WHAT OUR
 RIVERS CARRY

Colorado River discharges dur ing an average year into the Gulf of California 33S, 100000 ot mud and silt as suspended matter. In addition to this the dissolved substances in the water include 4,55O,OOO tons of sodium chloride, or common salt 3,74O, ,0O0 tons ofGlauber' salts; 100000 tons oflime; ?, 100000 tons of gypsum; and 4,8OO 900 tons of Epson salts. In spite of all this dissolved m iter;al the Col, orado atits mouth is not consid- cred to be stream of unusually high naturalization for that re- zion of the country. The reason IS that the river also carries so enormous an amount of water that the dissolved salts consti- tute comparatively small pro- portion of the total discharge Other streams i'll the country contain dissolved salts i'll great ercOncentration- for example, the Elm Fork of Red River, in Oklahoma, discharges nearly 100000 tons of common salt annually. Although this amount is not so great as that discharged by the Colrado it is much great CT in proportion to the size of the area drained. The discharge of salt from the ColoradD is equal to 20 tons annually to each square mile drained by the river, but the salt in Elm Fork of Red River is equal to 1880 tons per square mile of area draiued. The same river discharges annu- ally 177,O00 tons of magnesium chloride, 199.OOO tons of Epsom salts, ,693,001 tons gypsum, and 54, ,OOO tons oflime. These quan- titles, too, are considerably great CT than those carried Tn the Col orado in proportion to the size of the drainage area.
 Determines Practical Value of Waters.
 The foregoing are a few of the figures of incidental interest pre- sented by water supply Paper 274 of the United States Geologi cal Survey, emitted "Some stream waters of the western U nited States" The work re- ported by this volumes is, how ever, of higher practical import ance than the above statement would indicate. It is the result of an investigation of the quality Ot western stream waters made for the purpose of determining the1r availability for use for ir- rigation and other purposes. For a water-supply system the qua lity of the water available de termines it's usefulness quite as much as the quantity. Some Wa ters contain ingredients that make it impossible to use them for irrigation unless certain pre- cautions are taken in applying them to the land and Tn drain ing them off. Certain ingredients in water make it unavailble or destructive if need in boilers and the quality of water used in a manufacturing plant may very largely determine the quality oi the product of manufacture. The report just published therefore can not fail to be of material val ue to the manufacturing and agri- cultural interests of the West, and the proper consider ation oi the information that 1t contains will pervent many costly mis- takes in connection with the in dustrsal development of that part of the country.

JOEL A. COOLEY
ON GRAND JURY
First Coiored Man on That
Body at Richmond.

Joel A, Cooley. of 1863 Sprague
avenue, To~ttenville, q highly re-
spected citizen, has the honor of be-
ing the first colored man to serve
on a grand jury in the county of
Richmond in the history of the
county. Mr.. Cooley is an oysterman
and has resided In Tottenville all
his life, where he was born. He re-
ceived his education In the public
schools Of T~ottenyiile and Is thor
Eoughly competent to serve on a Jury.
His father, the late William Cooler.
resided In TottenvilIe for many
and was respected. During
his service on the November grand
jury, which completed 1t work last
week, Mr.. Cooley was treated eordiv
ally by his fellow members and was
eomplimented by Charles Humphrey,
the foreman, for his able assistance
in the cases that came before that
body.
On the visit to the various comfy
buildings, as Is the usual custom OF
grand juries. Mr.. Cooley brought,
the attention of the Jury at this
time to the need of a chapel for the
religious worship of the prisoners
who are confined in the county jail.
AT present when religious bodies
visit the Jail the prisoners are spok-
en- to from the sides of their cells,
which necessitates holding a service
on each tier. This was one OF the
most important findings of the grand
jury on their visit and will be
brought to the proper authorities to
be acted upon. MI. Cooley is we'll
known on this end of the island,
where he always has worked ard
resided.
