FoRRsTs as RESERVOIRS.

One of the interesting speakers al
the recent annual meeting OF the West
ern New England Chamber of Com
merce, held in Greenfield, Mass. was
Philip c. Ayers, state forester of New
Hampshire, whose state includes rhe
White Mountain forest reserves, which
have been secured in the past few
years. He dealt, from local stand
point, with the question of forestry
development, and especially with the
problem Of reforestation and showed
in very graphic manner how import
ant the encouragement or forestry en-
terprise is to this particular section.
The interest which the dwelers along
the Connecticut river should feel in
the preservation and rehabilitation Of
the forests OF Vermont and New Hamp-
shire was particularly wen shown in
N review Of the condition of the wa
tershcd of the Connecticut river.
He pointed out very clearly that
the Connecticut river, which must be
looked to in the future to provide pow
er for the industries which in the past
has been heavy consumers of coal, is
| especially dependent for its value and
usefulness upon the forests which line
its banks. There is no other power
furnishing stream of any size in the
New England state at least that is 50
fully dependent upon the hidden reaer,
yoirs which lie concealed beneath the
forest growth. Upon the Connecticut
river, from its source to its mouth
there are practically no sizeable reser
voirs in the form Of lakes The Con.
neeticut lakes, at the head of the
stream, are Of comparatively small ex
tent, and their value as storage reser
voirs is almost nothing. This fact j,
we'll illustrated by the course Of the
watcr-power companies along the Con
necticut river, who few years az,
concluded that the benefit derived from
the outstanding of the waters of thes,
lakes was so small that all efforts t,
conserve the headwaters Of the stream
