Walter, Construction Engineer for the Bureau of Reclamation, reported today. The previous high was 370,606 cubic yards, placed in October 1945. The dam, situated on the South Fork of the Boise river, ultimately will contain 9,053,300 cubic yards of material. “Although construction activities on other features of the project have been curtailed to a large ex tent because of reduced appropria tions for fiscal year 1947, excellent progress Is being made on the pro ject," Walter said. The structure, which will be com pleted will be the highest earth- filled dam in the world, now con tains 7,414.486 cubic yards o f mat erial, leaving 1,638.814 cubic yards remaining to be placed. The dam, exclusive of the outlet works, spillway, and powerhousv, Is approximately 84 per cent com plete. Provided adequate funds are made available It will be completed in 1948. | Anderson Ranch Dam provided initial storage of supplemental wait er for the 320,000-acre Boise pro ject during the past irrigation sea son. Eighty thousand acre-feet were made available. Present plans call for storage of 130,000 acre-feet of water for the 1947 irrigation sea son, 340, acre-feet for 1948, and full storage— approximately 500,000 acre-feet—for the 1949 season, In addition to providing irrigation service to existing cultivated areas, the Bureau dam will provide flood end silt control benefits, and make available approximately 100,000.000 kilowatt-hours of hydroelectric po wer to meet growing needs of sou thern Idaho. A 41.500 kilowatt plant Is to be installed to generate this ■block o f energy. Ultimately. Anderson Ranch Dam will become a key cog o f the pro p p ed 400.000-acre Mountain Home Project. However, until this pro ject Is authorized by Congress and facilities comnleted, the dam will serve no new land. American Lsgion Installs Officers For 1946-1947 H. O. Hopkins is Elected Commander; Paul Heldt 1st Vice Commander The American Legion held a meeting in the home economics room of the high school Thursday, September 5. The purpose of this meeting was to install the new o ff icers for the year of 1946-47.

Long, chaplin. The program outlined for 1946- 47 will be beneficial to the com munity. One of the important parts of the program Is the re habilitation of disabled comrades. The next project Is the Memorial hall where the young people of this community can gather and participate in helpful recreational activities. | The third aim is to secure a field for night baseball and foot ball games through the work of the veterans organization and the Owyhee Riding club. The fourth plan Is to secure an ambulance, fust for the veterans' use, and next, for the community’s use. The last project dLsoussed at the meet ing Is to make three awards, first second and third to the s.uuenta who have the highest ratings In the Journalism class of 1946-47. CANNING FOOD IS BIG FINANCIAL HELP School lunch sponsoring groups In Oregon have an opportunity this fall to increase their food supplies at low cost by promoting "canning Lees" for benefit o f the lunch program, points out Lucy Case, extension nutritionist at Ore gon State college. Miss Case has complied a mim eographed circular on canning for the school lunch which gives many suggestions on organizing and con ducting home canning operations for the benefit o f the local school program.
