The Salvation Army SPring 3-7335 Completion of Talent Project To Bring Recreational Benefit Ashland Completion of the S24Vi million Talent recla mation and power project will bring substantial agricultural and recreational, benefits to the Ashland area, Ashland Chamber of Commerce mem bers were told here last week Speaking at the chamber meeting were Jack Nichols, bureau of reclamation admin istrator for the TID project, and Walter Hoffbuhr, district manager. ' Nichols said completion of the project in 1961 would "represent the realization of a , plan which had its incep tion more than half a century ago." See Added Need . . Shortly after the turn of the century, he continued, for ward looking valley residents realized that additional water sources would have to be de veloped east of the Cascade summit. ; By . 1950, "said Nichols, a comprehensive Rogue basin development . program had been outlined but only the Talent division received full approval and support of re clamation and conservation in terests, mis project is tne only . portion of the major plan which has gone into con struction. The BLM official said the project includes a system of collecting canals, east of the summit which diverts water to the new Howard Prairie reservoir. The reservoir, now completed and being used for storage, has a capacity of 62,000 acre feet. ; Regulating Reservoir A 20-mile long canal from Howard Prairie carries wa ter to the regulating reservoir on Keene creek. From there it is taken to the west side of the range by tunnel and dropped down to the Green springs powef plant, and then down to Emigrant reservoir. Emigrant, which will start filling with water in the win ter of 1960-61, is now being enlarged from its original ca pacity of 8,000 acre feet to 40,000 acre feet and a new dam is under construction. The economy of the Ash land area, Nichols said, will benefit not only from the ad ditional water supply for ag riculture, , but also through the recreational facilities which will be available at Howard Prairie and Emigrant lake. In other TID action Tues day, Hoffbuhr warned that land owners who want their acreage under the new source of water supply must have their petitions for inclusion in the TID office before Dec. 31. Although about 1,500 acres of the 5,000 acres which can be served have been signed up, Hoffbuhr explained, peti tions are out for about 2,000 more acres. .. ; 1 I Be WARM in Your Home This Christmas with a Modern, Wood Burning THE CONICAL FIREPLACE Nariihw !() with til Manel tmespeew a cracfclme fin m fin- -efete .
