To Insure Water Supply.
In order to secure an ample supply
of water tor use In the several Irriga

templated, tbe Jackson County Im

waters of Four Mile lake for that pur
pose.
Four Mile lake Ilea iu . the Cascade
forest reserve, just over tbe summit
of the range and north of Mt, Mo

the water ahould be appropriated.
Steps have already been taken to se-
oure permission and aa the use to

serve, and la poaltive of tne auooess
of tha undertaking.
Tba idea la to build a dam at the
eastern extremity of the lake, the
surplus waters of whlob ordinarily
flow Into Klamatb lake for a few
weeka In the spring, at other times
the outlet la dry whlob will raise the
surface of the water twenty-five feet.
The water la then carried by dltob to

through natural ohannela into Fisb

"Beverly, of

Iu the next issue of this
paper will appear the opening
ohapter of "Beverly of Gratia

Cutcheon. It will be remembered that
a few months einue the Mail
printed in serial form the
highly entertaining story
"Graustark," b - MoCutobeon
ThlB story of "Graustark"
was pronounced by all of our
renders to be the very best
story ever printed in these
columns. Since the last chap
ter of "Graustark" was print
ed in the Mail the publisher
has been endeavoring to se
cure "Beverly of Graustark,"
but not until within tbe last
two weeEs haH tbe copyright
on it been extended to include
newspaper publications. The
story of ''Beverly of Graus
tark" is said by many to bo
better than "Graustark," but
this seems impossible
"Graustark" waB good enough
and if " Beverly of Graustark"
is better it is truly a wonder
ful piece ot fiction.
"Beverly of Graustark" is to
Bome extent a sequel, or more
correctly speaking a com
panion piecd or continuation of
"Graustark". Id itthe author
ha9 introduced a new heroine
in "Beverly" who is quite as
clever as was Princess Getive
in "Graustark."
