Large holdings will be divided,' there will be a rush of new settlers, and Klamath will become better known to the world, with an outlet for its prod ucts and an inlet for the tide of Irri gation and pleasure travel. One of the pictures shows the main tieadgate of the great canal, located at the paint where the Link or Klamath river emerges from the upper Klamath lake. The upper lake Is the largest body 1 of navigable fresh water tn the United States west of the Rocky mountains and is a vast natural' reservoir, the ohief source or supply ror the Kiamatn recla mation project. Fed by numerous springs and by a score of small streams, the lake has Its outlet ' through Link river, a mile and a half long, which In that short distance has a fall of over 60 feet and emptjes Into Lake Kwauna. Another picture shows the canal as It comes from the tunnel just above the city ot Klamath Falls. In this picture may be seen the concrete lining and the fine character of work performed. The other canal ploture illustrates the course followed by the water after it j nas been taKen in the construction work. and where it was necessary to line with cement It has been done.
