(Special to Tb Journti.) Astoria, Or., Sept. 11. The Immense dam at the headworks of the city water system on Bear creek, which has been under construction since April, will cost approximately J90.000 and will be fin ished by the etui o the year, according to the estimate of Kngineer Lars Bergs vlk. Excavation was finished the mid dle of last month and since then con struction of the immense concrete wall Uiat will impound OO,UOO,0u0 gallons of water has been under way. While the reservoir Is under way, a fluuiu about 40W feet lung conducts the water from Bear creek into tiio IS Inri main that supplies the city. The flume diverts the stream around the scene of operations. The contractors thus have dry ground on which to work. Tiio new reservoir was authorized by a special bond Issue. The object Is to provide water for Astoria during the, dry summer months when the flow of Bear" creek is no sufficient. The water surface when the reservoir Is filled will cover 22 acres, in a natural Uepreaslun at the Intake. This hn been cleared and reenforced with artificial walls, andj excavated near the dam location. Tho elevation of the intake is 600 feet. rifty-roux Feet Thick at Base. The main wall of concrete which im pounds the water Is a solid wall of ma sonry, 74 feet high and l'JO feet wide. It has a thickness of 5 4 feet at its base and of 11 feet at its top. Mr. Bergs vik says it in the tallest dam in the state. To build it fcOUO cubic yards of concrete will be required. The rock for use In mixing tho concrete Is ob tained near by. The. quurry Is in the mountain side, 300 feet below the dam, whence it is conveyed to the required place. At present 50D cubic yards of concrete have been filled In. The contractors uro building the dam at a price wf $S.8S per cubic yard for the cdncrtte. The excavation was done at J2 for the rock, 60 cents for the soft earth, per cubic yard. Four thousand cubic yards of rock and 2000 eulitc yards of earth have been excavated In prepa ration of the site. The completion of the dam will solve the problem that water users of Astnia have had to contend with during the dry months in the past, when a low run ning stream iias made water a scarcity to such an extent that sometimes It was not to be had at all. A growing popu lation has served to accentuate this condition each year. This year a heavy rainfall obviated it. The water In the reservoir will easily carry the city through dryest spells. If there were no water at all running in the reservoir, it would take 40 days at the present rats of consumption to empty ft. GOOD STOCK SCHEDULED FOR CLACKAMAS FAIR (Special to The Journal.)
