quick heavy growth in midsummer

and at the base remain always green.
and there is constantly some new
growth at the bottom OF the punches.
even in the winter. which will escape
the eye OF the casual observer, and Is
apparent only upon close examination.
Thus the visitor who sees for the
first time the brown ranges wonders
that the cattle are so fat, not knowing
that supply OF rich food lies hidden
under the brown and yellow punches.

OVER THE DAM.
Water In Chicago Drainage Ca
nal Passes LOckpOrt.

Chicago. Jan. n.-Water in the northern
section of the drainage canal today reacn-
ed the top of the bear trap dam at Lock-
port and within an hour after the first
thin sheet of water began pouring over
the top thousands of gallons of water
under the pressure of the immense vol
ume of water in the windage basin were
speeding on their way to the Mississippi.
Cakes of ice and masses of driftwOod
were taken up in the current and the roar
of the water could be heard for a quarter
of mile. 1t will be two or three days
yet before the Chicago level is reached
and then dredging at the Campbell ave-
nue. dam will be commenced.
Water power sufficient to operate the
city pumping stations and municipal
lighting plants for Seventy-fiVe years Will
be turned over to the city of Chicago by
the sanitary board as a result of a Joint
conference today between committees
from the city council and the drainage
board. By the terms of the agreement
which will in all probability be ratified
by the drainage board and the city coun-
ell. all the water power privileges gen
Grated at Lockport by the opening of the
new drainage canal will be transferred
power. The amount of power which 1t il
estimated will be created at Bockport Is
about 25.000 which will furnish the drain
age board with annual income of $780,
600. The conditions defined at todays con-
ference limit the use of the water power
by the city authorities to municipal pur-
poses only. The city will bear the cost
of building the improvements at Lockport
necessary to use the power.
