' * 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, Mr. K.
