CONSTRUCTION STARTED MAY 1 Enlargement of the Lost river diversion channel is
well under way of Horseshoe dam. This proiect is to enlarge the channel which cuts across
from Lost to Klomath river, so thot in the event of flood, water may be diverted from Lost
river into the channel, sending it down the K lomoth river to the oceon, thus saving Tule
Inke lands from beina inundoted. Formerly 22 feet wide ot the bottom, the eight-mile
channel is being enlarged to 60 feet wide. It has o fall of less than four feet.

Crop Forecast
LA GRANDE. June 30 W A
1 12O.000 cherry crop In Union
county wis predicted today, after
surveys Indicated the cherry fruit
fly had not made many Inroads
this year.
Little fly damage was discovered
thanks to concentrated spraying
operations early thla year. Larva
which haa damaged some of The
Dallea area crop apparently ha
skipped Union county, too.
The cherry harvest will begin
about July 6. with pickers receiving
J'v cents a pound.
LIFEBLOOD OF AGRICULTURE Water can be as destructive as it is life-giving to crop
lands. Horseshoe dam was built to control the wild tendencies of water and tame it to
farm use as needed. Picturesque views like this may be obtained from vantage points ony

Almost half of Spain's productive

Two anthropologists from tht Uni
versity of California. Alan Beats and
Tom McCorkie, plan to spend the
summer here continuing the study
of tht social structure of tht Tule-
lake community which was started
laat summer by John Ootna and
Harry Nelson.
Reasons given for continuation of
the research project were the help
ful and friendly attitudes of tht
people of Tulelake, and the wealth
of information gathered last sum
mer concerning the way communi
ties develop and tht way Individuals
adjust to new situations.
Tulelake Is of particular Interest
to social scientist since, during tht
course of It development, the com
munity ha been faced with the
problem of absorbing large group
of new settlers who hart moved in
a fresh land were opened for
homestead ing by the bureau of
reclamation.
Tht technique of community
building used by the people of Tule
lake may have considerable practi

chief military advisor to the presi
