raise the dam at the outlet Of Lake
Tahoe thirty feet. The lake is IA by

feet will make a mighty volume of
water. At Wadsworth the Truckee
is to have a dam 70 feet high. This
water is to be carried % miles
through a great canal across to the
Carson river. The Carson is to have
a dam ll0 feet high, which will make
a reservoir thirteen and a half miles

which will hold water enough to
