Dam Across Chelnn River.

The dam across the Chelan ri yer has
been completed, except for minor de.
tails, which will be added after the
usual spring high water. The dam is
Sd constructed as to hold the waters of
the lake at a level which will permit
lake steamers to land mile and half
below present landings. Two previous
attempts to construct such dam were

Our Trade in Livestock.

Washington butchers and packers are
now importing cattle from Montana
and Nebraska and hogs from the East
ern com states while sheep from Au-
straIia and other outside points have
come in to supply the demands for
home consumption. Since Washing
ton growers depleted their supplies of
waffle by large shipments East for fat
tening it may be noted that the value
of stock cattle has advanced 40 per
cent as compared with an adavnce of
only 8 per cent in beef cattle indicat-
ing that the replenishment of supplies
toolishly reduced below what condi-
tions warranted will cost neat sum.
Washington Oregon and California are
all in the same class in reducing their
cattle growing industry to their loss
though in the latter state the action
was forced by the drought a condition
unknown in the more fortunate north
ern states. On the other hand Mon
tana has come back to cattle-raising
for increased sources of profit. Accord
ing to the report of the state livestock
commissioner the number shipped out
side the state during the season of 1898
was lS2, ,225 and so. 900 were killed for
home consumption, making the con-
sumption of Montana cattle last year
242, ,225 head. The average price re-
ceived was $40 head, material ad-
vance over the average price for 1897.

New Mining Drill.

A novel machine is now being tried
for the first time in the history of
British Columbia mining at the Atha-
basca mine, near Nelson. 1t is called
the Elmore hand-power drill and is a
Chicagoan's invention. The machine
is operated by one man, and uses any
kind of ordinary drill steel, which is
pounded by an ordinary miners ham
mer. The inventor claims that it has
an automatic feed, and the drill makes
a perfect turn after every blow. 1t has
already been tried in Mexico with sue
cess. The great advantage claimed for
it is that while it does not supersede
labor, it greatly lessons the cost of
mining.
