Engineers will one day be called upon to prepare a report on the drainage problem on the North Shore and will then need particulars of the rainfall in various parts of that portion of British Columbia. Mr. J. Porter, having this in view, wrote the council Tuesday, suggesting that three other gauge stations be established in addition to the one he at present runs himself for his own personal satisfac- tion. He offered to supervise the installation, working and publi- cation of the reports from the three additional gauges, all with- out pay, providing the council would provide the gauges. The council thanked Mr. Porter for his offer and passed a resolution authorizing the purchase of three gauges, the total cost of same not to exceed $20. &Aupm 5 etu geIIE CANADIAN WIIIDOW BAHERIES (R.
