rate maps of the territory in which
it is operating is sadly handicapped.
Besides the military need for ac-
curate maps, they are of great value
to the United States in other ways,
to states, to municipalities, and to
private interests in the enterprises
which they undertake. Such maps
are particularly necessary for the
location of railroads and roads, the
study of irrigation, water supply,
numbering and mining projects"
The work of preparing topograph-
ic maps of the State of Maine is
progressing. the lower half of the

der an arrangement which exists
between the Public Utilities Com
mission and the u. S. Geological
Survey. whose specially trained en-
gineers are employed in mapping
areas selected by the State Commits

Up to 1920. &C sheets had been
completed, and since that time about
seven more have been finished. The
engineers in charge of this impor-
tant mapping project state that ~
sheets will be required to complete

Of Somerset and a bit of Penobscot
counties.
Field workers Of the U. s. Geo
logical Survey are now at work IN
Franklin county, mapping areas IN
that part of the State.
Under the present arrangement
the appropriation, which Is only
$4,000 annually by the State and an
equal amount from the Federal gov
eminent, does not allow of the work
being carried on very rapidly, ana
1t Is believed that unless larger sums
are made available the topographic
map of Maine will not be completed
for at least IS years.
The demand for this work has ma
terially increased since the project
of development Of the State has
gained in public favor, and 1t is
considered probable that an attempt
will be made at the coming session
of the Legislature to secure larger
appropriation to facilitate the speed
ing up of this work.
Under the existing agreement with
the u. S. Geological Survey, photo
graphic copies of each sheet are
furnished the Maine Water Power
Commission as soon as the work on
them is completed, the scale of these
maps being approximately an inch
to the mile, and the maps are very
valuable for wide variety of in
dustrial purposes. Town and bound
airy lines are shown. the outlines of
all wooded areas being represented,
and the heights of all important
points recorded. these being valuable
for military purposes.
