TO AVOID TROUBLE
FROM SPRING FLOODS
1t Believed Much Of the Flooded District Will be Benefited
by This Improvement is Located
Race Near the Mill.

Probably very few people i'll Alma are
aware of the important work which the
Alma Roller Mills have been doing
recently on the mill race. They have
gone about il in their usual quiet,
unassuming way, and but for the
"nosing" around of the RECORD reporter
with his camera, and the courtesy of
Manager +. G.. Scott, the public would
have been ignorant of its existence until
The spring freshets, which have come
with great regularity each year and
brought much damage and destruction.
The improvement is in the form of a
waste gate, shown in the accompanying
half tone, which is located in an unfre-
quented spot OH the east side of the mill
race, and it was built at a considerable
expense, with the hope of averting this
annual loss. Plans for the gate were
drawn by Supt. G. ID. Bell of the Alma
Sugar Factory and the work has been
under the supervision of that gentle
man, ably assisted by l.. A. Sharp and
f. G.. Scott.
Heretofore the great pressure of
water which rushes into the race at
that time of the year has been almost
completely held back, even with the
mill gates open, and the result has been
a break in the race, causing much dam
age and loss of money and time not
only to the milling interests, but to
many others. With this new gate there
will be three openings through which
