MILL POWER

Mill power is a unit of water power that is used to measure the quantities and weights of water available to a lessee.

For example, if a mill owner leased a water source to power their mill, they would be given a certain amount of mill power. This would determine how much water they could use and how much power they could generate.

Another example would be if a farmer leased a water source to irrigate their crops. The amount of mill power they were given would determine how much water they could use to irrigate their fields.

Mill power is a unit of measurement that is used to determine the amount of water available to a lessee. It is important because it helps to ensure that the water source is being used fairly and efficiently. The examples illustrate how mill power is used in different situations, such as powering a mill or irrigating crops.
