Development of the St. Croix Paper Co.

Development OF the 81. CroS Faper 20.
During 1895 there was completed a
dam and mill of the st. CroiX Paper
Co. at Woodland on the St. Croix
River about 10 miles above Calais and
Il miles below Princeton. 1t is under
stood that this mill has a daily ca
pacity of about 150 tons of paper. For
several years, ending in 1911. the
rivers of Maine have experienced UNI
usually low stages and as a result the
Woodland plant has experienced a
shortage of water for power purposes
Early in the current year, the ST.
CroiX Paper Co, decided to develop an
excellent power privilege at what IS
known as Grand Falls about I miles
above Woodland and IL mile below
the junction of the East and West
branches of the st. CroiX River. This
development includes the construction
of Dam and regulating gates at the
point in question and the erection of
a power house and necessary hydraulic
and electrical machinery for the gen.
GRAFTON of electric power. Their tur-
bine equipment will consist of three
pairs of 54-inch Hercules wheels OPP
Grating under a head varying from A
to 80 feet. The total capacity of the
wheels is 1900 horsepower. The mini
mum horsepower developed during
average low water is estimated by the
engineer of the company as 1000
horsepower. The plan is to Immediate
ly install two pairs only of the tur~
bnes together with two sets of gener.
ators alternating current, $500 kilo-
watts capacity each.
At the present time there is perhaps
q force of 400 men working on the
new Grand Falls dam. The estimated
time of completion is March |, 1913.

il was several months later before the
work Was finished.

structure of the so-called hollow type.
The permanent crest is at an elevation
of 1880 feet. Provision is made for 4
