There is no reference in the report to

forward to extend the width of the locks

tho development of shipbuilding, and
this will be made the subject of a spec

strong position is taken favorable to
the policy of doing the work by hired
instead of by contract labor, a step at
one time eeriously considered by the
administration, and many arguments
are presented to justify the commission
in its conclusion that the canal can be
built better, cheaper and more quickly
by tho government.
The commission has fully decided
upon the method of filling and empty

of gates .v The gates are in duplicate

GREAT LAKE IS LOWERING.

Work Irt Klamath
Klamath Falls Nature is perform
ing ono of tho most oxtonslvo portions
of tho reclamation work of tho Klamath
project, and also ono of the most expen
sive parts Included in tho estimato,
which ie tho dralnago of Tulo lako.
Reports received from J. Fiank Ad
ams, of Tulo lako, brings Intolligonce
that tho water of tho lake Is rapidly
falling, and a tremendous whirlpool
has formed just off Scorpion point,
through which tho water Is passing
with a deafening roar that can bo heard
a great distance. Below ia apparently
a great channel underground through
which the waters find outlet boneuth
tho Modoc lava beds and thence through
the drainage of Fall river to Pitt, and
finally ou to tho ocean through tho Sac
ramento and San Francisco bay.
It has long beon hold by geologists
that Tulo lako has an underground out
lot, and that Fall river, which ) bursts
from a gushing spring in Modoc county,
Cal., is tho vent. Last epriiig the lake
water reached a higher lovel than has
evor been known sinco tho country was
settled, and bordering farms wore inun
dated. For soveral days tho water has
boon receding and Investigation reveal
ed the new outlet. Should the vent en
tirely drain tho body of tho lako, it will
add 50,000 acres of irrigablo land to
tho project and at a saving of hun
dreds of thousands of dollara to tho
peoplo of Klamath basin, as tho In

rendored unnecessary.

In tho Oregon climate, particularly in

Laurel street in this city that was
planted 20 years ago. Its diamotor two
feet above the ground was two feot. A
number of cuts woro taken from it to a
cabinet shop. It is of lino grain and
rich color, equal to any black walnut
grown in tho Mississippi valley. The
cabinet maker in exhibiting this wood,
pointing out the annual growth in the
cross-section, said: "Tho young man
who will plant 10 acres of black walnut
trees here will find that it will make a
fortune for him in 25 years."
