This dam will create lake rs
miles long and between mile and a
half and two miles in width-the
largest artificial reservoir in the
world 1t will be constructed of
broken range cyclopean rubble" and
Portland cement. The stone of which
it will be built will be quarried from
the walls on each side of the canyon.
1t is contemplated that work on the
structure shall be carried on continu-
ously day and night.
Electricity for night work will be
furnished free by the government.
The waters of the Salt river have
been temporarily yharnessed to an
electric power plant which develops
4400 horse power. by means of tur-
bine, under a head of 220 feet fall.
The power thus developed runs ce-
ment mill and does all the hosting.
drilling, digging. etc, for the con-
struction of the dam.
The cement mill is located about
1900 feet from the dam site, and has
been equipped with all the most mod
ern machinery for making Portland
cement. Clay is taken from the
ground within a mile from the mill.
and one corner of the mill stands on
bed of limestone, which is one of
the principal ingredients. Close at
hand are the sand and other materials
from which bricks, as well as cement,
NAV be made. The mill has capa-
city of 400 barrels a day. 1t is esti-
mated that 100000 barrels of cement
will be needed to build the dam.
Another very important adjunct to
this big work Is a wagon road which
has been built from Roosevelt to
Globe, the nearest town. 40 miles dis
tant. Another road. three miles I'm
length, was built. leading to the tim
Der in the Sierra Ancha. where about
900 900 feet of lumber has been
sawed for use in the work
Some idea OF the difficulty encoun-
tered I'm the construction of the road
To Globe may be inferred from the
fact that in some places, where II
traverses the Salt river canyon. IL Is
cut through solid rock so and 70 feet
deep, while Fish Creek hill Is climbed
at the base of vertical cliffs 600 feet
high. where rock cuts GO and 70 feet
deep and fills of an equal height were
necessary. Some portions OF the
road cost at the rate Of $4,000 a mile
During the short period while 1t was
under construction 100000 pounds of
freight were hauled over It,
The waters of this Roosevelt dam
will be controlled by the largest
hydraulic gates ever built. with their
controlling mechanism. they will
weigh 500, 900 pounds. When the
reservoir is full. they will be capable
of discharging 10000 cubic feet of
water second. They will regulate
the supply of water in canals so miles
away.
The gates are to stand at the head
of a 500-foot tunnel which has been
driven through the side of the can
yon. and through which the waters
OF the Salt and Tonic rivers will be

1t is estimated that the dame will
be completed in about two years.
The excess water from the enor-
nous reservoir will be sent through
pipes into water wheels or .rbines
and the power generated will be
taken 60 to 70 miles distant to CEN
trifugal pumps, by which other water
will be raised to higher planes in
the Salt River valley. 1t is estimated
that each horsepower developed will
irrigate 10 acres. at a distance of so
miles. A area Of no less than $4,000
acres is to be reclaimed by this sub
sidiary power project.
The estimated cost of the dam and
power plants will be $3,2O0,ooO. Up

OF course. they can grow nothing
until they have the water, and it is
required by law that they live on the
land. SO they start with rather dry

1t Is not likely that there will be
