BIG POWER PLANT PLANNED NEARBY; OF INTEREST HERE
Dam on Housatonic, South vile Will Have 40 Foot Drop and Thousand
 Feet Width.

LitchfieId, Jan. 19-Condemnation proceedings have been brought against several owners of land along the Housatonic river in the towns of New Milford in Litchfield County, and Brookfield in Fairfield County, with the object of obtaining the right to flow water over said land by the erection of a proposed dam near Southville.
 These proceedings are brought by John H. Lancaster of Litchfield, Connecticut, whose associates in the project are F: Kingsbury Bull, Ludlow s. Bull, Charles T. Payne and Arthur Adams.
 The complaint in the condemnation procee dings states that it is the desire and intention of the plaintiff to set up water mill upon the property which he owns at Southvi11e, Connecticut, in the towns of Bridgewater and Brook field, and to operate the same for commercial purposes, and to build a dam across the IIousatonic river at ssaid site in order to create a water power by means of pond or :eser- voir for the benefit of such proposed mill.
 The proposed dam is to be 40 1t. nlgn ana SoO rect loIIS, Wltn tnlck- ness of 45 feet at the bottom, of concrete construction.
 It is estimated that this dam will cost about million dollars.
 Mr. Lancaster already owns about 65 acres of land on both sides of the Housatonic and it is proposed to build a dam on this site. It will, however, be necessary to obtain the right to flow considerably more land as the proposed pond will extend back four

rom studying the proceedings of the General Education Board in America.
 One other development of recent years is cooperative credit which was legally established in this coun- try in 1904. The movement has pro- gressed by leaps and bounds. One of the chief difficulties in the way of ag- riculture in India consists in the small size of the holdings in many parts of the country and the consequent lack of capital. Moreover, custom in con- nection with marriage and other cere- monial occasions, demands a heavy toll on all classes of the community.
 This has been largely responsible for the poverty of the agriculturists. When a farmer had to marry his son or his daughter or to perform any of the innumerable ceremonials connect ed with his domestic life, he invar- iably had recourse to the village money lender, who demanded a high rate of interest. When a farmer de- sired to improve his holdings by the construction of a we'll or the purchase of bullocks, he was compelled to re- sort to the same quarter and paid a rate of interest which amaZes those not familiar with Indian conditions.
 ."The Indian statute book of the past half century contains many examples of the attempts to relieve the agricul- turist, but none of these prior to the passage of the Cooperative Credit Societies Act had the result so much desired.
 Tn 1909 there were ZOOS societies in India, and in the year 1914-15 the total regfstered societies numbered 17,327. Hitherto the main purpose of these societies, which are of unlimited lia- 1llty, has been the advance of money to indivxidual cultivation or specific purposes, but the movement is rapidly developing, and progress, along lines analogous to those adopted by the Agricultural Organization Society in Ireland, is already marked. There is rom to hope that in the cooperative system may prove to have been dis covered the remedy, so long sought, for the tendency to thriftlessness which has caused agriculture to be so heavily handicapped in the past"
