Each spur is constructed of willow brush
laid alternately top up and end up. from the
earth up to ridge-pole held upon cross
stakes, some seven feet high, driven well into
the earth. The lower ends of the brush are
buried in the sand, and the brush is firmly
wired to the supports. These spurs resemble
hunters or woodman's summer lean-to, u
and present the sloping side to the advancing
waters, check the current, and cause deposit
ton of the sediment and gradual filling up
between the spurs. " 1t is well known" says
Mr.. Hall in his report on this subject, "that
lattice fence forms complete wind.break.
Sands blown up from the beach are arrested
and made to pile up in great dunes or ridges
parallel to the water front by the construc-
ton Of light wicker work or brush fences.
Similar constructions, which do not present
enough resistance to the currents of water to
be swept away or undermined by them, are
now used to gradually check their velocity
and to force them to drop their sands-like
those blown by the winds from the beach
where the engineer desires to have them
rest"
From this account it will be seen that this
first step of the Drainage Commission to
check the flow of debris into the rivers and
its deposition In the valleys, embraces sys-
tenn of stopping the matter in the Yuba
river on bed two miles in width, by spurs
described and by restraining dam some
nine miles above the mouth of the river,
which shall become by the action of the
river a permanent barrier, to be added to
only as it is topped by the advancing slums /;
and also by a system of levees to confine the
rivers to their natural channels, and to this
latter end old levees are utilized where found
available, and in Districts and Q in Suffer
county, levee is being built upon the west
erly side of the Feather river, most of the
work being done by the local authorities,
who have this year alone expended in that
way over $4,000
THE DAM STATISTICS.
To return to the dam, it is to be said that
similar structure is being built across the
Bear river bottom, and that like system ia
to be applied there as in the case of the Y uba.
The Yuba dam Is q splendid piece of work.
1t has been built with great rapidity by
Rideout & Binney, contractors. 1t was COM
msnced August 25th. and there have been
employed from 500 to 500 men on it con.
stantly, and in no case has "a Chinaman been
employed. Some 500 horses have been
