STATES WATERPoWERs
Committee on Conservation Makes
Report to Governor.

hCPOTt " oSHS'HSi'
The report of the commission on
the conservation of natural resources
has been made the Governor by J. M.
Thomas, c. p Smith and F. S. Bill
ings. The duty of this commission is
to make investigation concerning the
use of natural resources in Vermont,
including agricultural lands, forests
and water powers and to suggest
measures fir their conservation.
Articles by eminent men were pre-
pared and circulated by the commits
sion or by other well known men of
the State. The report says:
your commission is impressed
with the need of more attention to
use and misuse of water powers A
movement for the Capitalization of
such powers in a few large communi-
ties is well under way. There is
nothing to prevent further extension
beyond the borders of the State, eX-
cept the financial ability of corpora
tions to purchase water powers. One
may imagine three or four cities IN
the State and near its borders ac-
curing and using almost the entire
product of white coal stored up in
our mountains.
"a dozen thriving communities each
supporting a mandatory or two is
better for the State than the dispro-
portionate increase of one plant. The
time has come for the Legislature
to consider restrictions upon the
transmission of power from one town
to another 1t may be questioned
whether any corporation should
have the right to convey power from
beyond the limit of the municipality
where the power originates unless The
right is reserved to that town and to
every town through which it is pro-
posed to convey il to purchase such
power under regulations protecting
the interests of the communities and
the State.
"The State should reserve the right
to manage, regulate and control the
use and distribution of power and
level and flow OF water in all nayig-
able rivers and no person, firm, or
corporation should build, maintain or
operate any dam or other improve

out obtaining a franchise authorizing
such work. If the conservation COM
mission were permanent, it should
be necessary TO apply to it to obtain
franchise. There should be a public
hearing. A franchise fee of a per
cent on gross earnings should be ex-
acted.
Vermont could proftably develop
some of her neglected water powers
and encourage community industries
which anguish The time will come
when this acquisition will be more
difficult than now
No inventory of the amount OF
standing lumber in the State has ever
been made. There is need of forest
preserves at the head of streams
which are natural sources of water
supply. The work of the forester
should be supplemented until he has
tracts of woodland in every county
to furnish demonstration.
A commission of five consisting of
three appointed members serving for
six years one to retire each two
years, and the State Firester and
Commissioner of Agriculture to exer-
else the rights above outlined and to
keep before the people the necessity
of the protection of our natural
wealth.

Siohtless Snails.

A patient investigator in Europe
named Yun.y claims that the sDail
doesn't see at all. He has made 2,4OO
experiments upon 1IG specimens. and
be says that when you put snails into
an Enclosure where there are both light
and shade their distribution is mat
ter Of chance. The snail, be says, Goes
not shun the light so much as he hunts
for seclusion. His conclusion is that
the snail does not perceive obstacles
in his path until he bumps into them.
His speed being low, be escapes in
jury. Having once selected 4 resting
place, flashing lights into his apology
for a face does not disturb him. To
complete his experiments Mr.. Yung
amputated the organs Of sight from
several snails and couldn't find that it
made any difference in their happy If
placid lives

Tunnsten and It's Uses,

The mineral tungsten (the name
meaning heavy stone) has been known
for many years, but only comparative
" recently has it become Of economic
Importance. Its most important use,
according to the United States geolog-
ical survey, and the one which makes
tungsten mining on an extensive scale
possible is an alloy for tool steel.
Lathes using tools made from tungsten
steel may be speeded up until the chips
leaving the tool are so hot that they
turn blue, an operation which would
ruin the temper Of high carbon-steeL
It is stated that about five times as
much can be done with lathes built
for such speed and work as can be
done by the same lathes with carbon
steel tools. From 1G to 20 per cent OF
tungsten is ordinarily used in lathe
tools. The melting point Of tungsten
is exceedingly high-5,576 degrees T..
Tungsten also has an important use IN
making incandescent electric lamps
crucibles for electric furnaces and va
rious other articles.
