Economic Value of Electric Light and Power

Excerpt from Economic Value of Electric Light and Power I thought it necessary that some things should be said for the electric industry in the interest of those who are, or should become, users of Electric Service. I felt that I could say those things. This made it my duty to say them. Now that I have said them, it will quickly appear that there are those who can say them better than I have done; also, that there are others who are not in accord with what I have said. Both classes of critics are aware that in our day of civilization there is no monopoly of the expression of thought, therefore I have a reasonable hope that in due time I shall hear from them freely and fully. I design this book to be of service - 1st, To those who are interested in obtaining state or municipal legislation. Such legislation should place the Electric Service of a city on the basis of a Pvblic Improvement, entitled to special privileges, in order to secure the service for users, on terms and under economic conditions best calculated to properly serve the interests of all citizens.

A Few Notes on the Habits, Life History and Economic Value of Doves

The Raising of Young Waxwings, Ampeles Cedrorum (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A Few Notes on the Habits, Life History and Economic Value of Doves: The Raising of Young Waxwings, Ampeles Cedrorum W. E. D. Scott in the Auk, Vol. IV, 1887, gives a terrible account of the wiping out of the beautiful American Egret. Years ago, in Florida, there were prairies white with the birds, and even many of the adjoining islands were alive with Egrets. But what do we find now? Miles and miles of shore with perhaps a single solitary bird. These birds were killed by the hundreds of thousands annually; and the same may be said of its smaller cousin, the Snowy Egret, which, at one time abundant all through the Gulf States, is now all but extinct. Here the bull 's-eye for every hunter was the beautiful bunch of snow-white aigrettes. F. M. Chapman (birds of Eastern North America states I have heard a plume hunter boast of killing 300 herons in a rookery in one afternoon. Another proudly stated that he and his companions had killed - Herons, Egrets and Terns during one winter.

Excerpt from The Economic Value of Our Native Birds: Discussed by Orders and Families; Order XIII, Macrochires, Goatsuckers, Swifts, Humming-Birds, Etc.; Family 20, Caprimulgidae Nighthawks, Whippoorwills, Etc.; Family 21, Micropodidae, the Swifts; Family 22, Trochilidae; The Humming-Birds The work of this office has been so pressing, and growing to such an extent, that it has not been possible to issue the Quarterly Bulle tins as promptly as we have desired, but with a greatly increased force we hope to be able to overcome this difficulty by the next issue. As the value of our investigations depends to a great extent upon the co-operation given by the citizens in various parts of the State, we request all persons who can do so to send us specimens of insects and reptiles for our studies of these creatures in Pennsylvania, and also specimens of such birds, or at least the bird-stomachs with their contents, as they may be able to procure by legal means. Birds are often found dead, and we shall be glad to receive these to make a study of the causes of their death, as well as their food and such other features as will be of value to scientists and other persons. Large specimens may be sent by express, at our expense, and small specimens may be sent by mail, and postage will be re funded. In all cases it is very important that specimens should be so packed in firm boxes or cans that they will not be crushed in transit. As we have no way of keeping specimens alive, and as we especially wish to study their stomach contents, it is quite desirable that they should be killed as soon as they are collected or before shipping. We do not have funds for purchasing specimens at the present time, but shall reciprocate all favors whenever possible. Address all packages and communications to Prof. H. A. Surface, Economic Zoologist, Harrisburg, Pa. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Economic Value of Global Weather Measurements

Global sensor networks could support increased activity in a number of economic sectors. Potential benefits and the predicted time scales required to realize them are estimated. Benefits are particular compelling for fundamental reasons for aviation, hotels and restaurants, natural disasters, construction, agriculture, and apparel. These benefits can be captured by simple logistic approximations.
