Large holdings will be divided,' there

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

during the present season.
