C. M. Red field of Bend is a
business visitor this week. Mr.
Red field says that the big stave
pipe has been completed to con
duct water across the river bed.
This project is by far the biggest
one of its kind ever completed in
Crook county. The finished pipe
is 1620 feet long and has an in
side diameter of 4 feet 8 inches;
the central point of the pipe is 40
feet lower than the ends. The
body of the pipe is built up of
staves about six inches in width
each one being several feet long.
They are put together in such a
manner that the joints are made
some distance apart, preventing
any weak part. The side of each
of the staves contained a small
groove around the pipe at regular
intervals, making the construction
complete. Mr. Red field says that
it has leaked very little from the
time it was completed and is work
ing perfectly.
About thirty-five men are in
camp three miles north of the
flu me, where construction is being
carried on regardless of the wea
ther. As soon as spring opens
this crew will be doubled and
work rushed on all of the com
pany's project.
