description: Photograph of a close-up of a specimen of Larkspur, ca.1920. Several branches of the plant are shown, its lightly-colored flowers in bloom, shaped like trumpets. Its leaves are visible at bottom. Pictured on a neutral background.; "Larkspur: any north temperate, Old World annual of the genus Consolida of the buttercup family. Consolida species were formerly classified in the genus Delphinium, which includes similar annual, biennial, and perennial herbaceous plants of the northern temperate zone that are commonly called larkspurs or delphiniums. Plants of both genera are popular garden plants, especially favored for their blue-flowered varieties. In many cultivated larkspurs and delphiniums the spurred flowers, usually blue, pink, or white, rise in a spire above the deeply cut leaves. Most native North American delphinium species are poisonous to cattle. Larkspurs and delphiniums are classified in the division Magnoliophyta, class Magnoliopsida, order Ranunculales, family Ranunculaceae." -- unknown author.

title: An arrow reflection in the waters near the Roosevelt Dam, Arizona, [s.d.]

Small mountains are visible in the background.; "Roosevelt Dam was originally constructed between 1905 and 1911 to control to the erratic flow of the Salt River and to harness the water for irrigation. The dam turned the Arizona desert into land that could be farmed. Once the world's tallest masonry dam, this structure is named after President Theodore Roosevelt, who was instrumental in approval of the Federal Reclamation Act of 1902, and who dedicated the original dam in March 1911. Roosevelt Dam is unique in the way it was originally constructed. It was the world's largest 'cyclopean-masonry' dam, a Greco-Roman style of building that uses huge, irregular blocks. It is now covered by new concrete. In 1996 a $430 million modification project was completed that raised the height of the dam to 357 feet and expanded the lake's storage capacity by 20 percent -- enough for 1 million more people. This 77-foot increase offers six Valley cities 304,729 new acre-feet of water storage to the dam and, for the first time, provides SRP with substantial amounts of flood control and Safety of Dams storage space. The dam has hydrogeneration capacity of 36,000 kW." -- unknown author.

title: Exterior view of the California state capitol building in Sacramento, ca.1900-1920

description: Photograph of the exterior view of the California state capitol building in Sacramento, ca.1900-1920. The Italian Renaissance Revival state capitol building is approximately six-stories tall. After climbing a flight of concrete stairs, visitors are greeted by an eight-column portico entrance. Above the portico is a wide pediment adorned with moldings and sculptures. A very prominent feature is the dome and cupola. The building has a east and west wing. A variety of trees decorate the yard surrounding the building. A sign planted in the ground in the foreground reads: "No thoroughfare, keep off the path, this means you".; "Construction began in 1860--just 12 years after the discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill--on a four square block site which had been occupied by several private homes. The property was purchased with tax money raised by the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors. Over the next four years, architect Reuben Clark managed to get the walls up nine feet above the foundation. Floods in 1861 and 1862 slowed construction, forcing construction crews to haul wheelbarrows of dirt to raise the structure 15 feet. Funding for the project was piecemeal, but Clark signed a statement May 18, 1862 stating it could be built to his specifications for $500,000. Funds were provided by a legislature which met only two months every two years--so building progressed until funds ran out, then stopped until the next legislative session. That undoubtedly added to the frustration which drove Clark into a Stockton mental institution where he died in 1866. According to records uncovered in the hospital's files, the cause of insanity was diagnosed as 'continued and close attention to the building of the state capitol in Sacramento'. Gordon P. Cummings took over as supervising architect, and was in charge of the project until he finished the job in 1874. Total cost of the project was $2.5 million. The first major alteration took place from 1906 through 1908. A fourth floor was added to the remainder of the building by gutting the chambers, taking the roof off the building, installing new steel trusses, and redesigning the senate and assembly chambers. The building remained much that way until the Depression years of the 1930's, when people began making more demands on government. Then, a mezzanine floor was added. World War II, with its population boom, brought about the most major alteration of the capitol: the addition of the East Wing, around 1952." -- unknown author.
