TO UTILIZE SNOW WATER.
Plans for Irrigatins Rich Bench
Lands in Wyoming by Means of
Water Now Wasted.

Investigations by the United States
geological survey are now in progress
in northern Wyoming with view to
extending the use of the available wa
ter supply in that portion of the state.
Jeremiah Ahern, an engineer of the
geological survey, is in charge of the
work. Particular attention is directed
to the eastern slope of the Bighorn
mountains, where important storage
problems on the headwaters of the Sui
phur, Powder and Tongue rivers await
solution
These streams, after leaving the
mountains, flow through fertile bench
and valley lands, which, with proper
Irrigation, would be valuable for agri-
cultural development. The rainfall of
that region is light during the time
water is needed for irrigation, but the
winter SHOWS on the mountain slopes
are unusually heavy and furnish large
quantities of water to the streams.
The source of supply at present is an
extremely unsatisfactory one, for the
warm rains of spring melt the snow
rapidly ana produce disastrous Hoous,
in which large quantities of water pass
through the streams unused.
There are, however, number OF
lakes in the region, favorably situated
to be used for storage. One of these
is Lake de Smet, whose water surface
is said to be 80 feet below the lowest
part of its rim. In this lake it is pro-
posed to store part Of the headwaters
of the Powder river, thus saving a
large body of water for irrigation
which is now entirely wasted.
Mr.. Ahern has been engaged during
the present summer in gauging the
flow of the streams on the eastern
slope of the Bighorn mountains and in
investigating the possibilities and
probable cost of water storage in the
region.

side slipping of Autos.

Alfred Harmsworth, who is an en-
thusiastic motorist, of London, has
called upon the automobile clubs to
appoint committee of experts to con-
slider the subject of side-slipping, in or
der to devise means of rendering it inn
possible. Mr.. sHarmsworth regards it
as one of the drawbacks to motoring,
and says he himself had some side
slipping experiences this summer, both
in England and on the continent, which
made him doubt whether the game was
worth the candle.

PROMISES MANY INNOVATIONS
elegant and Complete Railroad Serv-
ice to BE Given New York Through
Rapid Transit Tunnel.

New Workers will be riding from one
end of the rapid transit tunnel to the
other in less than year, according to
the announcement made by Chief Engi-
peer William Barclay Parsons. Prac-
tically all the tunnel digging will be
finished within the next six weeks.
''By next New Years day it will be-
gin to look like railroad" said Mr..
Parsons. "We shall then have seven
miles of four-track railroad laid and
ready for business. And by that time
we expect the work of excavation and
Enclosure to be completed. In all there
are 60 miles of single track road to be
built. The electric motors will begin
to arrive about January /, and the
cars will soon follow. The stations will
be beautiful and artistic as well as
illuminated by sunlight and perfectly
hygienic.
"A color scheme has also been adopt
ed, by which to distinguish the various
sections of the road, so as to enable the
passenger to tell at glance when he
is nearing the station at which he
wants to leave the train.
inns VIII be IN addition to an auto
matte device in the cars by which the
next station will be announced.
'At all important stations telephone
booths will be established, and at the
more important stations telegraph sta
tions also. There will be both ascend
ing and descending elevators at all the
deep stations.
''Stairways have been planned so as
to keep the incoming and outgoing
streams of passengers entirely sep
arate. The stairways will be wider in
the average than those of the elevated
railways and there will be twice as
many.
81 believe we shall throw the main
section open to traffic on October 1
of next year, and that will be Is months
within the time limit fixed in the con-
tract"
