The project Is a remarkable under. taking. The Deschutes river and IU tributary, Crooked river, II in gorge 600 to 1,000 feet deep, th walla being nearly perpendicular. At the point where the Dsvenport-Chrlstenson pump is installed It Is necessary to raise the water 600 feet over four perpendicular irairce, tne Highest of which la 75 reet The undertsking, when commenced last fall, looked like a mammoth lob. The hardest part was to get th neces sary materials to the place where th wheel was to be Installed. All th materisl was lowered from the plains 600 feet sbovo to the water' edge. A wheel seven feet in diameter and two feet eight Inches across th face waa built. The machinery and flume were arranged and securely fastened to the rocks to prevent them from being washed away by high water. Eleven hundred and aixty feet of pipe are used in making the raise of 626 feet Tests of the plant have proved highly uo eessruu Lumber Csmps Can't Gst Man.
