o'clock in the evening a total fall of
more than a foot was registered by the
gauge. The storm covered nearly 300
square miles, in places being even
heavier than at the point where the
measurement was made.

Special Dispatch to Tn. Call

UKIAH, May 14.-The Eel River
Power and Irrigation Company, headed
by local capitalists, was formed last
winter, and the water rights Of South
Eel River. at the head of Potter Valley.
were secured. A site for a dam was
secured near the. John Day place.
where there is a natural basin for a
large reservoir. which will impound.
according to the engineers of the COM
pany some 1900, ,000, 900 gallons Of
water. The canyon at this point Is of
a rocky formation, affording ample ia
cilities for safe anchorage for the
dam. Work on the dam is now under
way. The structure will be eighty feet
high, twenty feet thick at the base and
will be built of stone and cement.
Large waste gates are being construct
ed so that the dam will not interfere
with the natural flow of the river. 1t
is the intention of the company to use
only the surplus water for power pur-
poses.
The power plant will be located in
the extreme northern part of Potter
Valley, and to connect the dam with
the power-house a tunnel one mile
long is now being drilled through the
mountain. Crews are working at both
ends Of the tunnel. From the intake at
the dam TO the proposed site or the
power-house there will be a fall Of 40
feet, giving pressure of about 1S5
pounds to the square inch.
1t is the purpose Of the company to
furnish electric lights for this section
of the country. Contracts have already
been secured to light Ukiah and other
cities. Power will also be furnished for
all purposes. The feature of having
cheap power to pump water will do
away with costly system of irriga-
tion bitches, such as must be used by
gravity system. The surplus water as
it leaves the power plant will be used
by the farmers of Potter Valley and by
them turned into the Russian River.
which is dry during the summer
months This will prove of great bene-
fit to the ranches In the valleys.
1t is impossible to predict the bene-
fits that will arise from this enterprise
to Mendocino and Lake counties. Cheap
power has long been needed. Electric
roads will be built and a new section
of country will become accessible to
the homeseeker. The engineers in
charge of the work estimate that the
work of boring the tunnel and con-
structing the dam. will be finished by
next. fall All other work in connec-
ton with the installing of the plant
will be ready by that time.
