Tho December Issue of "The Volt." the 'small publication of the Califor nia Oregon Power company, which "Will be distributed ext week, is de voted to a review of the activities of tho company for the year 1923. It contains a number of illustrations of new installations during the year, in cluding the system warehouse and machine shop constructed in Medford and the new transformers of larger size installed at the Medford Bubata tion.on Riverside avenue. The most important transaction 'of tho year in the company's business is referred1 to as the acquisition of the properties of the Douglas County JJght and Water company, av.d the tying in of the old Douglas county system with the Prospect-Springfield high tension transmission line at Dfxonville, just east of Roseburg. We quote from an advance copy of 'The Volt" as follows: "The famous valley of the Roguo Is tiot lacking of monuments bespeaking progress both ours and the region's during 1923. We Installed additional transformer capacity in our ' Medford substation, increasing the total In stalled capacity here to 3000 K.W. And more noticeable than the new electric equipment installed is the company's new system warehouse in Medford, which was completed in July. Thin enables us to centralize t)o handling of electrical supplies kept in stock for use throughout the Copco system. The property is so sltunted that equipment arriving by rail can bo handled economically by means of derricks and motor trucks; th? warehouse lot is located on the main lino of the "Southern Pacific railroad. Tho building, which Is near ly 200 feet long and 48 feet wide, is of corrugated -Iron construction. A portion of the floor space will he util ized for offices, thus increasing the avn liable' office spnee at our Home office headquarters, the Copeo build ing, on West Main street. In addition to the warehouHe the lot contains the company repair shop and pole yard, and there Is ample room for further expansion of the warehouse and shop facilities. ' ."It will bo recalled that the Copco Pwer plant was completed near the end of last year, a. new unit doubling the capacity of the plant having beeu Installed. The new. unit has been In successful operation ever since, and our dally ponk load has required iuu load on both units of this plant. r"At opportune times during the last half of this yar we have been re installing portions of transmission lines Nos. 2, 3 and 4, extending into Siskiyou and Shasta counties in Cali fornia, and Klamath and Jackson counties, in Oregon.; This work will be completed during the coming year, and make it possible to operate these lines at 66,000 volts,' more than dou ble their present capacity.1 On line 2 we installed new transmission switches at Castella and at Dunsmuir, in California, which improves our ser vice to consumers in this section. Also to Imp rove-service to Grants Pass and the surrounding territory, we installed a new oil switch at Grants Pass, at a cost of $1800, the amount being men tioned so that non-electrical readers may realize that it was a big little job. "Gold mining has been resumed to some extent In Siskiyou county, Cali fornia and in Jackson and Josephine counties, Oregon. Early in the year the Estabrook Gold Dredging com pany's dredger, located near Trinity Center, was reconnected for service after having been shut down for two reasons.
