This is good water for domestic pur-
poses. The alkali forming salts are
small, consequently it is good for irri-
eating purposes. The lime and mag
nesia salts are present in small guam
tity. This fact shows the water would
not form a bad scale If used in boilers.
The water would be fairly soft for
laundry purposes.
Yours truly,
LAIRD j. STABLER.
1--WE have been furnished with many
additional analyses showing the quality
of the water of the Owens river and it's
tributaries, and of the water now sup
piled to the city Of Los Angeles. A
comparison of these shows that the
Owens river water is much softer than
the water now supplied to the city,
which contains from two to three times
as much dissolved mineral matter as
the water of the owens river. Our eX-
animation of the streams in the Owens
valley showed that the creeks coming
from the Sierras furnished water which
Is clear, colorless and attractive; the
water in the river being made up Of the
combined flow of these creeks is of
similar character but has slight tur-
bidity and stain owing apparently to
drainage from the marshes In Long
valley and to the other return water
from the canals and irrigated lands.
This feature should make the water
somewhat Objectionable If 1t were to
flow directly from the river into the
city pipes, and it has little or no sig
nificance in the present instance where
the water, after being taken from the
river, is to be held for a long time in
large storage reservoir where the min
eral particles which produce the tur-
bidity will have time to settle.
1.-THE long period of storage in the
reservoir will also be an important safe
guard against the transmission of dis
ease germs should any enter the water
OF the river, because 1t has been found
both by experiment and experience that
disease germs are all or nes ly all
destroyed where the water is he suf-
hclently long In reservoirs.
Although the storage of water in a
reservoir has favorable effect in the
directions indicated 1t sometimes pro-
notes the growth of water plants or
algae, which makes the water less
palatable and attractive. These growths
are liable to occur with any water, and
have very little, IL any, sanitary sig
niticance. 1t is not feasible to prevent
them, but II is feasible to remove their
effects by aeration and filtration.
There is an abundance of surplus
fall available for aeration below the
Haiwee reservoir, where the water will
either flow for several miles down the
natural bed Of the stream or be dis
charged with great force against im-
pulse wheels, in either case receiving
most thorough aeration.
"In our opinion water which has thus
been stored and subsequently areated
will be OF better quality at its exit from
the aqueduct into the San Fernando

Experts Make Public
Their Findings on
Aqupduct
Potent Possibilities of
Big Watershed
Pointed Out
Unlimited Quantities Of Purest Water
at Command of Los Angeles, and
Power Besldes-The Plans
In Detail

After weeks of hard work and much
thought the report of the expert engi-
neers who examined the Owens river
water project for Los Angeles was
made public yesterday.
Its recommendations indorse the
work that has been done by the local
engineers and as forecasted point out
the possibilities of the electric power
which will be furnished by the water
sources and furnish permanent revenue
to Los Angeles.
The board convened in Los Angeles
on November IA and has since then
been continuously engaged.
The major portion of the report is as
follows:
Measurements of the flow of owens
river and its tributaries were made by
the United States geological survey for
two years beginning in August, 1908.
and measurements of the flow of the
river have been continued during the
past year by the city of Los Angeles.
There are, therefore, now available
measurements of the run-off for three
years, which fortunately include a
normal year, dry year and very
wet year.
BY comparing these measurements
with others on the adjoining westerly
slope of the Sierras, where records of
the rainfall and stream flow for a
period of sixteen years are available,
il is possible to deduce by analogy the
extremes of minimum discharge which
may occur in the river and it's tribu-
taries during seasons of more acute
drouth than the driest of the three in
which measurements have been re-
corded.
after study Of all of these measure
ments and of the computations which
have been made we are in agreement
with the report submitted to us by the
engineers of the Los Angeles aqueduct,
that 410 cubic feet per second of water
can be depended upon with the regula-
tion of the Haiwee reservoir alone in
years similar to those in which
measurements have been made upon
the Owens river, and that with the
further aid of the Long Valley reser-
vcir the 410 cubic feet per second of
water can be depended upon in years
as dry as any that have occurred upon
the adjoining watersheds in the past
sixteen years. lArs
1--WE have visited the river at the
proposed intake of the aqueduct, and
one member of this board on October
25, 1906, took sample of water from
the river at the bridge next below the
point of intake. This water has been
analyzed and a copy of the analysis

Julds and Carriers and Wilders of this
generation, and himself a great states
man in his time, would have built
from Kona in a straight line across
the Island of Hawaii 1t was
meant, of course, as a road for horse
men and pack animals. In the genera
ton of DR.. Judd it was a great work,
and the manner of its building showed
that he meant it to be monument to
him for all time.
1t had progressed, when the flow of
1859 came down and crussed it, to the
point at which it stops now, from the
coast little above Kailua. At this
point the red-hot lava boiled over it,
and all the power and prestige of DIR.
Judd, backed by the power of the
kings, could not get the natives to
work upon it again. The god s were
angry, and no man must build a road
across there. So DIR. Judd had to come
to a halt. Some day, however, there
will be read through th..re-s Though
it will hardly follow the line that DR..
Judd took. In these days of wheeled
men cannot make their reads
as the crow flies, regardless of topog-
raphy. Dr. Judd could-and. so far as
his road went, did do that thing.

gradually into a vast belt of gray koas

were belly-deep in lush grasses; and so
on down into a region of mist and fer

the tree that you know most intimately
and love the best is slain; and though
the cutting is pity, it is not nearly 50

from pure neglect. Only in one place,
in all the stretch of forest that we
traversed in a long afternoon, was
there apparent any effort to save sim

were hewing out a canoe. Everywhere,
the trees lay dead on the ground, or
dropped over to die-like old, gray men
who had passed their usefulness, and
for whom the world had no more care.

that the old chief was wont to drill his

to do it, il all conscience There would
be room in that plain to fight the battle
of Waterloo-and then leave few
acres for the retreat of the French.
One can understand, travelling over
the Island of Hawaii as I have done,
how it was that Vancouver estimated
the population of these islands so high.
That plain where Uni s house stands
must have been thickly populated, at
one time. There are rsis,tins of houses

A STRANGE COVERING.

This brownish stuff was soft, and
not know what it was. Maybe a lava
expert can tell. Nor do L understand
why it should lie in spots in certain
parts of the flow, and be altogether alb
sent in other parts.
We reached the end of this hard road,
at last, and came out upon the sand
plain that forms the table-land be-
tween Mauna Loa and Hualalai-a
table-land that is covered with forest
growth but in which there is not one
drop of water. Here the Secretary and
Rawhide Ben and Thimbleberry Jim
went galloping off, after crossing that
lava flow, in chase of wild pigs-which
they did not get. As to the rest of us,
we rested That was the most convent
ent thing to do, and the easiest. I have
found in myself a great capacity for
resting. and Jimmie has noted the same
thing of himself.
The Secretary and the guide came
back again, presently, without a pig,
and after we had logged for a very
little distance across the sand plain,
We struck into a wide trail, running
,traightaway toward Kona, built up
# small rocks put together almost as
irnly as masonry, and the Secretary

PRETTY HARD GOING.

I can conceive of nothing more diff
cult to travel upon than an old flow
of pahoehoe, not yet transformed into
soil, upon which lehue forest has
'startrd. The trees and the rock seem
to combine against the traveler-the
one to drag him from his saddle, the
other to trip his horse and hurl him to
his death on the black and merciless
rock. And the wear and tear of the
horses gait, and the strain upon the
nerves of man, and the racking of
his muscles, combine to put the trav-
'eler little closer to the contemplation
of the possibilities to follow an i'll
spent life than may be altogether pleas
ant. This did not trouble me, of course,
but we had politicians in the party.

poets, is unique. You probably know
