GREATEST ASSET,
SHOULD BE PROTECTED

Pocatello, Idaho-The Idaho Rec
lamation Association, through its
managing director, has started a
movement for a further %conserva-
ton of the states greatest asset,
water.
At a banquet given in connection
with the meeting of the local chap
ter of the American Association Of
Engineers, including engineers from
Idaho Falls, Blackfoot and Ameri-
can Falls, the Reclamation Associa-
ton director called the attention Of
the engineers to a great public SER
vice they could perform by uniting
their efforts in aid of this conser-
walton.
1t was pointed out that under ex-
listing law the appropriation of wa
ter was largely an individual mat
ter, with the ever present danger
Of Interior distribution. The direc-
tor stated that the Reclamation AS
ISOLATION was Investigating certain
cases of that kind, and already had
some evidence of gross misapplica-
ton of water that should he used on
Idaho lands.
The engineers were deeply inter-
ested in the directors statements,

necessary to say that the secret of
some of the methods which her govern
men has used in acquiring a foothold
In China has made an unfortunate I'M
preston on many of our people.
A third matter, the Anglo-Japanese
alliance. is bound II come into the con-
ference, directly or Indirectly. Probably
the United States will not raise it, be-
u it would not be the highest cour-
tesy for us to make that kind OF initia-
tive. But any inquiry by either the
japanese or the British into the state
Of American feeling about this alliance
will disclose that America does not
like 1t. 1t does not appeal to our sense
Of propriety in such matters that In the
far east. where three nations have
large interests, any two Of those ma
lions shall have an alliance which ex-
cludes the other.
We recognize that at the time the
alliance was first made, twenty years
ago, there was good reason for both
Japan and Great Britain uniting to
protect their interests against the ag-
gressiOns of Russia and Germany. I'm
der the changed circumstances, It will
undoubtedly be the position Of the
United States that there should nc
longer by any such exclusive agree
ments in the far east.

other states are rapidly tc,lowinG

Since these laws not only spsci-
fy that the glare must be reduced
but that the illumination of the
road must '5e maintained they have
a direct bearing on the battery. The
battery as well as the lamps and re-
Electors must be up to the scratch
to keep the driver out of the clutch
es of the police court.
Referring to intensity of light.
the Ohio law for example, specifies
that the projected beam Of light
measured at a distance of 200 feet
in front Of the car shall measure
not less than $500 apparent can
die power In order to comply with
this section of the new law it Is of
ours necessary to have clean re-
Electors. efficient lamps, and in ad-
dition, well charged batteries that
deliver current at their normal vol
tage."
How can that little glass do
filter tell whether a battery is
full charged or not? obviously
Queries some fair lady motorist
during the days work at the aver
age battery service station. And
many a man would like to know
more about the same subject but he
does not like to confess his ignor-
ance-his curiosity is not quite 90
keen.
The explanation Is simple indeed
and very reasonable when one gives
it sufficient consideration. It hap
pens that the sulphuric acid used
in a battery solution is heavier
than water alone and the hydro.
meter used for battery testins
merely indicates the relative weigh
Of the solution compared with tn,
weight Of pure water.
When a battery 10 discharged {

Naturally the solution is weak IL
acid and the float rides deep. But
when the battery 10 fully charged
and the acid 70 II the solution-th,
solution has become heavier-and
the hydrometer float rides high.
The willard Storage Battery Co
and many other manufacturers rec
ommend the regular and frequent
testing of batteries with the hydro,
meter. Unless a battery has beer
meddled with by some inexperienced
person this makes a reliable test O
the state Of charge.

The director also besought as
~sistance of the engineers as unoffi-

ted that they designate a board to
act as consulting engineers for the
state, volunteering its services in
solar as consistent pending a more
effective plan Of providing for the

paid a high tribute to the capabili-
