before the war it WOULD be necessary
to invent them or something eQuiya

The electric motor is counted upon
also TO solve the problem Of farm

Cooperative societies are being form

PARIS. France.-Thc water power
OF the Alps, the Pyrenees and the cen
trail mountainous region is playing a
big role in the military effort of
France and will have an even greater
share in the after-war economic
struggle.
Many new hydraulic power plants.
born of war needs, are turning out
shells. chemicals and other necessi-
ties for the army. Many others, born
CT the coal famine and its lessons, will
replace steam power after the war.
France utilized 13 per cent of it's
total estimated natural water power
in 1914. She was utilizing more than
20 per cent in July of this year and
tn" proportion is every day incroas-
ing. Competent engineers fix at
100000" horsepower the energy
France could secure from its water
falls at low water while 9,2Q0, 00"
horsepower is the estimate for aver
age seasons. The total steam energy
used in France before the war was
