Consulting Knglneer I). C. Denny and George W. Ollleld, president of the Water Users Association, last Thurs day made an appraisal of the Ankeny cannl and power site, from the Upper Lake to the Leavltt place, the pur pose being to submit to the Secretary of the Interior n llgurc at wwhlch this property can be disposed of to any one who may desire to make the pur chase. Sometime during last year a reso lution wa-s passed by the board of directors of the Water Users Asso ciation, severing this cannl from the Klamath project, this action having the effect of notifying the reclama tion service that this cannl was of no use to tho Klamath project. Fol lowing out tho effect of this resolu tion, an appraisal has been asked for, and this was done last week and the value set forwarded to the Secretary of the Interior. The Ankeny canal' was one of the original Irrigation projects of Klam ath County, and was constructed by some of the large land owners who desired to bring their tracts of land under Irrigation. When he reclama tion servlco came In hero some four teen years ago, It purchased this ca nal, along with others, and after the completion of the main 'canal it was practically abandoned, being used only to furnish water to owners of rights within tho city. These rights wore finally acquired by tho city, which now- owns 1111 interest in the property to the extent of twenty Inches. Tho rights attached to this canal, exclusive of those of the city, are sufficient to develop S00 horse power, anil it is understood that the California-Oregon Power company has made a tentative offer, or indi cated thnt It stands ready to take over tho property if satisfactory ar rangements therefor can.be mil do.
