I.KiHTi I'OH KIt CO., A NO WIIX UK IXHTAI.I.KI) WXl.V. New equipment for trie local plant of the. Bend Water, Light & Power Co., which will Increase the present power generating capacity 600 kilo watts, is now being unloaded at the freight yards, and will lie Installed within the next three weeks. The machinery consists of a four wheel, 660 horsepower water turbine, weigh ing 26 tons, and requiring two cars to bring It to Bend. Tbe turbine was shipped from Springfield, Ohio, and mere transportation cost $1020. The present output of the Bend plant is 750 kilowatts, but Increase in the city's population has taxed the power station to the uttermost.

Foundations for the installation of the machinery are complete, and the construction of a building to house tbe new power unit will be started as soon as the turbine. is In place.
