FINE WORK IN ENGINEERING.
Strom, of Spring River Power Com
pany, Scores Gratifying Trump.

One of the most remarkable
pieces of concrete engineering ever
witnessed in this section of country
was finished Saturday when head
Concrete Foreman Strom, OF the
Spring River Power Company, in a
period of nine days accomplished
what the Frisco concrete experts
and workmen, in a period OF over
six months and at cost Of $1,000
had failed 10 do, and who had final.
ly come to the conclusion that the
work was impossible.
The work in question was the CEN
ter pier of the bridge which was To-
Gated in the center OF the river
where the water was about thirty.
five feet drrp, and the main difh-
Guilty was ia building the collier
dam.
The current was quite swift al
this point during high water aud
often washed out their Golfer dam.
Conditions of this kind had gon.
on so long aud the Frisco had mad.
every effort to get the work accom-
plished that with the results they
received they almonst despaired OF
building the pier. As last resort
Strom was sont for and took hold
of the work, and his results show
that he not only made good but that
he knows every phase of concrete
work. Under his direction the work
went steadily forward until the &C
complishing of work which was
deemed impossible was completed.
Yesterday all the machinery used
in the construction OF the piers was
removed down to the big dam,
where some repairs will be made.
Strom il said 10 have worked un.
der the greatest concrete workman
the world has ever known, aud il
has been said of him that should
he have been given the task he
could have harnessed the Missis.

Good Results Near CedarvaIe.

A dragged road made as recent,
as last February demonstrated lite
usefulness this spring in Chau,au'
qua county. The Cedarvale Com
lnrrcial recently had this TO ~,
about the first work duue with Ii
drag in its circulation territory:
Geo. Beuoy, who lives FIVE miles
south of here, has the only piece oi
road in the country, 80 far as We
are able TO find out, which is made
with the King road drag. Mr.. Beu.
oy says this is an ideal piece OF
road. There is about half mile OF
il and there has been no time this
spring that in two hours after
rain Mr.. Beuoy has not been able TO
track his horses on this piece OF
road, and then without the least bit
of mud ia evidence. The road wac
made only last February. Mr.. Beu.
oy says he would like that every
farmer know the value OF this drag
aud how easy il is to keep the road
in good shape. He says the work
on roads made or being made with
the King drag must be- done imme-
diately after a rain. The big ad-
vantage in this, he says, is that far
mers seldom have anything to do
