Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the development of specialized light-measurement equipment and methods that revolutionized the testing of incandescent lamps. The author describes how these innovations simplified the process of ensuring lamps met performance and efficiency standards. The text covers initial rating tests, voltage regulation, and periodic measurements during lamp life. It outlines how the devices could be used to calculate mean light output and efficiency over a lamp's lifespan, a crucial factor in determining compliance with specifications. The author explains how a series of logarithmic scales were used to compute required values of lumens per watt, percentage light output, and percentage efficiency. The book reveals how these scales could be adapted to both horizontal photometers and integrating sphere photometers, allowing for more precise and efficient measurements. It concludes by emphasizing the significance of these innovations in advancing the field of lamp life testing and ensuring the delivery of high-quality lighting products. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a history and detailed overview of the irrigation and drainage investigations that were initiated towards the end of the 19th century and the subsequent research carried out by the US Department of Agriculture in collaboration with various colleges and experiment stations. A large number of investigations related to irrigation carried out in the arid and semi-arid regions of the western United States are covered along with a detailed account of the legal and economic problems related to water resource management in the irrigated regions of the US. Equally, investigations focusing on drainage and its applications in the eastern and southern United States are presented, highlighting the examination of different methods in combination with the study of their legal and economic aspects to analyze the most efficient solutions to the problems of excess water and soil alkalinity. The book concludes with an in-depth discussion and insightful analysis of the importance of drainage studies and the emerging need for their continued investigations. This volume is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of water resource management and the development of irrigation and drainage practices in the United States.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the economic realities of farming under irrigation in the early 20th century, with the objective of helping farmers determine what was then considered to be a fair price for water. Extensive data was collected from Idaho's Twin Falls Canal Company to assess costs and returns from farming under irrigation. The authors examine the role of the company, which was formed under the Carey Act. Water was supplied continuously to approximately 800 miles of canals operated by the company, which then levied assessments against its stock for irrigation and other purposes. The study found that, on average, the investment in building and equipment increased as the net income of the farm increased, while the percentage of total expenses allocated to debt payments decreased. The authors also found that the receipt from special crops, such as beans, clover, and alfalfa seed, accounted for a large portion of farmer income. This book offers valuable insights into the cost of water for irrigation and the financial aspects of farming under irrigation in the early 1900s, providing a foundation for understanding the historical development of agricultural practices in the American West.
