SNCSS
The work of the United States
Geological Survey in Vermont is
always a matter of general interest,
some of the states most important
! industries being closely related to
| it's natural resources Profitable
studies of the GRANTEES and marbles
of Vermont have been made and re-
ports by the survey published which
are now available on application to
| the director at Washington.
Studies of the stratigraphy and
geologic structure in the western
part of the state will be made this
season by Geologist Arthur Keith.
Under his direction the areal geo
logy of the Hoosic and Bennington
quadrangles is now being described
and mapped in detail for geologic
folio publication by L. M. Prindle
and a reconnaissance examination OF
the Wheelington and Londonderry
quadrangles is being made by I.
Nelson Dale.
In cooperation with the governor
of Vermont, the survey is making
topographic map of the area called
the Milton. quadrangle, in Chitten-
den county This quadrangle mas
an approximate area of 213 square
miles, its length from north to south
being about 171A miles and its
width from east to west about IL u
miles. This work is being done by
Photographer Charles E. Cooke and
will include the detailed surveys
necessary to prepare map when
will show all rivers, towns, ROADS,
and railroads, as well as the surface
relief of the country by means OF
2O-foot contour lines. The compIet-
ed map will be engraved on scale
of one mile to one inch and will PROB
ably be ready for distribution in
about two years after the compile
ton of the field work.
The water resources branch OF
the geological survey, in cooperation
with the state, is making a study of
the flow of streams in Vermont. For
this purpose II gaging stations are
now being maintained in the state
at the following points: Passumps1c
river at st. Johnsbury; White River
at Sharon; Clyde River at West Der
by; Dog River at Northfield; East
Creek at Rutland; Lake Champla1n
at Burlington; Lamoille river at
Johnson and at Hardwick; Missis-
uuoi river at Richford; Worcester
Branch at Montpelier, and Winooski
river at Montpelier and above Stew
ems Branch At these gaging sta
lions the height or stage of the river
is determined each day by local OBJ
servers, and measurements OF the
discharge of the streams are made
by engineers of the survey. From
these data the quantity of water flow
ing past the stations is determined.
The hydrometric data collected are
of value in Vermont chiefly in the
design, construction, and mainten-
ance of power plants and in the
study of municipal water supplies.

CONFIDENCE IN SAVINGS
BANKS

Everybody knows that the most
valuable asset which a Savings
Bank has is public confidence in
it's safety and soundness.
Without it, its growth is as GER
tainly stunted as is field Of grass
on worn out soil, without fertili-
zer. Confidence is the fertilizer
which promotes the growth Of any
Savings Bank just as much as
phosphates promote plant growth.
Attention is called to the fol-
lowing statement showing the
growth of deposits in the Lamoille
County Savings Bank and Trust
Company of Hyde Park, Yer
mont -.
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1913-10-01

Note the deposits of 1902 have
been multiplied by four, while the
deposits July 1, 1913, are about
two and one-half times what they
were January /, 1908.
The growth during the year
ending June 80, 1913, was 1898,
348.36, or nearly one thousand
dollars for each working day in
the year. To state it exactly, the
deposits exceeded the Withdrawals
for each day in the year-not
counting Sundays and holidays
by an average of $971.81 per day.
On the Both day Of June, 1913,
the deposits passed the two and
one-half million dollar mark.
Can there be any better evil
dence than this of the practically
unlimited public confidence in the
sound judgment and cautious con-
servatism of the men who govern,
direct and manage the affairs of
the Hyde Park Savings BankY
This Bank pays four per cent
interest, compounded twice each
year, and pays all taxes.
A statement of the assets and
liabilities of this Bank will be
mailed to anyone on REQ uest of the
President, Carroll S. Page, or the
Treasurer, Frank M. Culver, Hyde
Park, Vermont.
