FOSESTS DESTBOYED — MILLS IDLE. 



' * Many people do not realize it, but it is 

 a fact that in 1825 there were in New York 

 State more waterwheels than there are to- 

 day. Our streams have been drying up by 

 the ruthless cutting do^vn of our timber and 

 neglect of measures to replace it by refor- 

 estation. I will not say it was all done 

 ruthlessly — some of it was necessarily cut 

 for the clearing of agricultural lands — but 

 we all know that far too much of it was 

 done ruthlessly, without regard for the fu- 

 ture and future generations. On our own 

 river, the Black river — the second in im- 

 portance in the State — the flow varies from 

 40,000 cubic feet a second in the springtime 

 to only about 400 cubic feet a second in the 

 summer time. As a result, for about four 

 or five months in the year we are unable to 

 run our mills efficiently. ' ' — From an ad- 

 dress hy E. N. Smith, of Watertown, N.Y.
