    DREDGING PROJECT
OVER HALF DONE
Great Gains Made on Chan
nel Work Between Port
land and the Ocean.
TIIE MORNING OREGOMAX. TUESDAY, JULY 20, 1915.
ENGINEERS' REPORT MADE
tThlrty l-et or Water Available on
Tractically Entire Distance Be
tween Portland and Brook
field Chinook's Work Good.
More than half tho amount of dredg
ing required to be executed under the
existing: project for channel work be
tween Portland and the sea had been
completed June 30, the exact gain be
ing 53 per cent. In the estuary of
the Columbia River dredging has pro
vided a depth of 26 feet at mean lower
low water and 30 feet is available be
tween Portland and Brookfield. except
at -a few points where the dredges
Multnomah and Wahkiakum will be
started at work next week.
The stage of Improvement is shown
In the annual report of Colonel Mc
Kinstry. Corps of Engineers, United
States Army, in charge of the Sec
ond Portland District. The governing
depth in the "Willamette is placed at
24 feet at the datum stage, which
means that ships of considerably
creater draft can be accommodated, as
the average water for years is seven
feet above zero in the river, and even
during the low water period of Sep
tember, October and November the aver
age for years has been more than two
feet above zero. At present the Port
of Portland, which fakes care of all
improvements in the Willamette, has
two dredges working there, a third
will be added shortly and four will be
available in a few weeks when the
new steel 30-inch digger is ready.
Chinook Reanlts Satisfactory.
Host satisfactory results have been
obtained at the entrance to the Colum
bia where the dredge Chinook is en
Kaged. She has deepened the range
where work has been carried on this
season so that the drasrs of her nlno.
lines no longer maintain a horizontal
position on the bottom when the ship
Is in motion, but only the ends really
perform the work". For that reason it
has been determined to lengthen the
Pipelines nine to 10 feet, which can be
done without ordering the vessel out
of commission. Their total length now
is 76 feet. The Chinook did excellent
work last week, but is not up to the
maximum, and if she can operate stead
ily for a few months more appreciable
gains are looked for.
The south Jetty is completed and
40 per cent of the total estimated quan
tity of stone required for the north
Jetty has been placed. For the first
8000 feet of its length the north Jetty
stands at or above 10 feet more than
datum, except for a short length,
where the height is about flv f.t
above datum. For the next 3700 feet
the crest Is uneven, its average height
being about five feet below datum. The
total length of the trestle June 30
was 11.177 feet, leaving about 1225
feet to be built. Comparing the ag
gregate quantity of stone placed In the
south and north jetties with the sum
of the quantity In the south Jetty plus
the total estimated quantity required
to build the north Jetty, the project is
82 per cent completed.
One Channel 32 Feet Deep.
The project calls for a depth of 40
feet at the entrance at mean lower
low water. The available depth when
the project was adopted was about 22
feet. The present governing depth on
the northward entrance range is 27
feet: on the southerly entrance range
30 feet, and In the area now being
dredged 30 feet. In the south chan
nel Ihere Is a narrow channel 32 feet
deep. The maximum draft that could
be carried across the bar June 30. at
mean lower low water and with a
smooth bar was 28 feet. This does
not take into account that the ordinary
rise of tide is 7 feet.
Following work in the Willamette
above Portland the results June SO were
that a maximum draft of 6 feet at low
water could be carried to Oregon City.
2 feet from there to Corvallis and 1
feet as far as McMinnville, on the Yam
hill. As to tributaries of the Columbia the
Clatskanie River project was completed
witn a low-water maximum draft avail
able there of 2 feet. The Cowlitz
River project was completed, a gain of
30 inches in depth havine been mnH
so the maximum draft that could be
carried at low water is 24 Inches. The
Lewis River project is 28 per cent com
pleted, so to La Center a maximum
draft of 2i feet at low water could be
carried and & draft of 3 feet to Wood
land. The Grays River task was finished
as well, giving that stream a low-water
draft of 3 feet.
Colonel Morrow Spend $1,370,430.
In the first Portland district. In
charge of Colonel Morrow, Corps of
Kngineers, United States Army, ex
penditures for the year reached $1,370.
429.23, and the most important accom
plishment is regarded as terminating
work on The Dalles-Celilo Canal, which
was 84 per cent completed a vear ago
That district also built the south wall
at the Cascade Locks and continued
channel operations on the Upper Co
lumbia and Snake rivers with two
steamers and a fleet of drill scows On
the Snake $21,981.40 was spent and on
the Columbia, from Celilo to the mouth
of the Snake, $41,753.93 was expended
dred'nsr and building wingdams,
while $601,092.45 was required to com
plete the canal, so the three amounts
represent what was used above the
Middle Columbia. For the south wall
at the Cascade Locks $20,936.50 was
paid out and $12,863.06 for maintenance
and operation.
Jetty work and restoration of the
channel inside the entrance to the Co
quille necessitated $21,286.07 being util
ized. On Coos Bay the outlay was $65.
8a9.S6, and the channel across the bar
was deepened from 18 to 24 feet, and in
the Coos River-a channel of 4 feet was
provided. To extend the Siuslaw
jetty cost $91,979.31, it being built out
a distance of 465 feet. The improve
ment of the channel to Toledo, in Ya
quina Bay. required $5640.09. and on
Tillamook Bay $194,252 was spent in
building 4200 feet of trestle for the
Jetty and delivering 123.113 tons of
rock. In examinations and surveys on
Coos Bay and the Alsea the sum spent
was $1836.75.
On the Nehalem Jetty project the re
port of Colonel Morrow shows the work
was extended 1860 feet and rock de
posited totaled 113.414 tons.

enough of this preat stock over there in the North
western Bank Building into cash or customers
contracts? We'll give you a free hand. Do jut
as ycu like; try not to lose any more money than
absolutely necessary, but pet the results. Can
you do it? Will you do it?" Will I?
Given unlimited liberty with prices, believe me,
I'll Ret the results all ripht. I know the condi
tions, and that's why I candidly state that never
such low prices as I'm making now. Positively,
it's the limit.
These Pianos are going to be sold. The banks are
full of money and there are thousands of homes
who actually and urgently need just what I have
to offer now. c W. HOUSEMAN.
