8. TITO OREGON STATESMAN. SAIC?.!, OREGON SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 5, 1923 GOODS TO BE. I Portland Railway, LigKb & Power Company Estab , lishes Salem Office HERE With! f.500 patron In and mround "Salem,, the Portland Rail I way.' Light & Power' company is stabl whinp a local office for the ale ,of the company securities in the Salem district, j ; The company ; is putting some where between $12,000,000 and .' 5 K. .000,000 into it great Oak r.rOjTe power plant that Is to de- . volop 1 0 5,000 horsepower from -the waters of " the : Clackamas . river., It Is one of the 'most high ly scientific projects in the west, for It utilizes practically every form .of storage, of diversion a.nd of transmission; known to science. ! Water From ; Cascades ' '"-..! AU the water comes from the slopes of,. Mount Hood, Mount Jefferson and the other high : mountains of the Cascade range. Clackamas lake lies between the v two giant peaks, with the Tim othy Meadows Just, below. These broad, ! spreading meadows ; form an ideal storage reservoir.?-Restrained by a 7-foot. dam. the water can be fed down the Oak Grove fork asLjaeeded for power purposes during the short-water -period. . The upper fork of the Clack- a mas, heading high up on Mount ' Jefferson, and carrying a tremen 1 dous regular and reshet flow ot water, spreads oat into the Big Bottoms meadows, where ay 130 , foot dam makes it a magnificent Ptorage reservoir. This dam is also a diversion dam, to raise the waters to a -height sufficient so ' that a three-mile tunnel will carry it across tothe Oak Grove . stream-bed, to raise the waters tot easy diversion through: a nine foot steel conduit, eight anorone . half miles long, down ' to the Clackamas canyon where the power-house is to be built- Head I Tremendous The water vis turned from this great conduit Into a huge "surge tank," that will eliminate all the, hammerings of the , long -tnnneJ and ; pipe-line carriage.' ? Then' tne water goes in three other n(nf-; foot conduits down the bill to the power plant proper. This ; drpP .of 867 feet one of the greatest water-heads ever contemplated in hydro-electrical historywill pro . vide water to run three " enor mous Pelton water wheels, each to develop 35,000 horsepower. These are the biggest wheels ever built. The nearest approach Is ; the 25,000 horsepowers wheels t the Kern River plant In Calif or n!a that , operate under! a- head ot v S 1 0 feet. - , - -: '.-..;! - ' ' The great difficulty with many otherwise jsplendid power ! possi bflfcips is Iheir .variable .wfftojr flow. , The Snake riret in Idaho, with it Shoshone falls, 212 feet sigh, and almost a dozen" other tremendous ' cataracts, varies in its flow from 500' cubic feet per second to almost 1 200000 cubic feeet per second. 'The smaller fjow has been registered at; tiroes ! when, fhe grew irrigation pfo f Jects of the upper-river " are tak " Ing the diminished summer flow ! for Irrigation use. put this great Clackamas plant,- through the storage ' plan as projected, wiir give its 105.000 horsepower every day of the year, under every weather condition, with of course a great surplus during the plenti fully watered years. ' I. ' . Railroad Boijt . 1 t , The company is building a ,30- mile railroad, and a wagon road 55 miles long, to reach the upper workings of 'this, enormous power project. Work has been carried on all this year,, so that the grad ing is already well along. The first unit of the main power plant ; is to be In bperation duringl924. It is announced that about .the best buyers of the company secur ities have been Its own employes, most of whMn 'have bought up to their limltf Following ' them. have come the-' general, consuming public. Out of the 66000 patrons of " the company in the whole territory-served, there i are several thousand stoci owners, about 100 of them being company patrons vln Salem. The efforts is being made to Interest Oregon people in buying industrial stocks in I their own country, and helping to build up their own country with their Invested moneys ' , Me Take Tlold i That the Idea Is (taking fast hold of the people j of Oregon, was the testimony of President Franklin T.. Griffith, Iwho was in ! Saleml Wednesday and spoke be ' fore the Rotary club. " A little financial Interest In J the public -1 ntilltr that serves a ntari, he says. : leads to a better understanding of the problems that surround util ities, and tie producer and cen nA investor in a common :fiinwhin where they must gain r iftse together. Mr. Griffith has i been one, of the foremost advo cates ' of the community owner- Uhir of utilities in the - un States, and his own company i W nnn ,nr the most notable examples of. the -public helping-to serve itself througn us ! The company now has hydro- c' ?:tria 4 i tean' plant capable J of developing- II CO 00 borse power and this Jsiv't nearly enough to serve the territory. r An 2S,0 horsepower U Bteam-jruitiv that ia too expensive for anyj hut 1 emer gency use.

' I. , Chapin. forj years county agent, thea field and crop expert for the King's Products company, and now appraiser for the federal land bank; was the principal speaker, lie outlined the plan by which he determines land val ues v for bank loans, and these furnished the basis for the dis cussion. The federal land banks make o Joan limit of $150 an acre for any excessive crop improvementst such a orchards, ihat may be added ito' the land as a straight agricultural investment. There are so many things that can hap pen to a specialized crop, such as fruit the insects, the frost, a winter freeze that the conserv ative banker cannot accept any thing like , the actual' one-year bumper crop as a fair basis for loan; values. So the utmost that a bank operating on the federal basis, would be the farm land value of possibly $100 an acre, more or less, as shown by the revenue returns, plus" the maxi mum, allowance of $150 an acre for highly specialized .crops. , Mr. Chapin examines the land, its sail, its drainage, all the prin cipal elements of croD production fend then figures what the farm wouia likely produce on a care-'fully-planned crop rotation that will maintain or increase its nor mal ; fertility,. Taking a 100-acre valley ,farm. all tillable, he sug gested about 15 per cent of wheat, which ought to average 20 bushels a,n acre, or, $300; 15 acres of oats and vetch hay ought to be wortt 11600, at the prices that have been prevailing; 30 acres of clover, for hay and for seedought to pay $1, 125; and l5 acres of cultivated crop, lik? potatoes, should be worth $1125 a year, at an aver age price of $1.35 per 100 pounds. The revenues from' garden' "and pasture would bring up the re ceipts of a really good, ell-tilled farm) to $3-100. Deducting the taxes, repairs and -other necessary owner expenses, he would have a nrt return to the owner, from his one-third of the crop, of about $830. This, at an estimated G ner cent for caaitnl return, wnuld he, paid on a maximum valuation of,j about xi 40 an acre. This, however, he stated was an eau-eptional farm, and tha estimate called for its careful farming. (hir Customers Appreciate the Splendid Values we are offering in dependable Groceries.
