DREDGE THAT SUCKS UP CLAY.
Powerful Machine i'm Operation on
Lake Michigan.


In the excavation OF harbor chan
nelS and the removal OF sand bars in
rivers wonderful work has been done
in the last few years with the suction
dredge. This device consists OF
pump, capable of drawing in through
a huge pipe sand, small stones and
water, and forcing a stream of the
compound 10 a considerable distance.
Sometimes IL is discharged into
hopper on the barge which carries
the pump, but usually the mixture is
deposited at convenient point on
the adjacent shore. Thus the build
ing mp OF a bank, where such an op-
GRAFTON is desirable, can be carried on
simultaneously with that OF digging.
When the material Is delivered at
distance, Il is forced through a Sec
ond pipe that floats on scows or pom
toons.
One OF the most recent undertake
ings with such methods is the filling
in of a wide area on the water front
of Chicago. This measured a mile in
length by nearly a third OF mile
(150O feet) in width. 1t was bound
ed by a stone breakwater composed
OF rock removed along the route OF
the Chicago Drainage Canal. IL was
purpoSed to cover the region with
clay dug from the lake bottom In the
immediate vicinity. For the perform
ance OF the work a dredging boat las
feet long, thirty-eight feet wide and
ten and a half feet deep was de-
signed. IL was equipped with
pump have thirty-inch suction pipe
and discharge pipe, and an engine OF
1900 horse power. A rotary cutter,
nine feet in diameter. and provided
with eight blades, served TO loosen
the material on the bottom. So suc-
cessful was its action that many
pieces four or five feet long were
found in the discharge.
The dredge could be used only in
favorable weather. When the lake
was likely to be rough the floating
pipe line was disconnected and towed
TO safe place near shore by steam
tugs. The exact length OF the dis
charge pipe is not indicated In the
reports now at hand, but IL was COM
posed OF sections 100 feet long, each
being secured 10 its neighbor by

Babyfed Hats.

Hats appear TO become more and
more babyfed. Just SO there be a
ruffie somewhere about the face TO
give a caplike air. and that IL gets
back of the head-that is about all
one seeks for. This style is decidedly
English. since no one but the English
woman ever seems TO have any sue
cess with such headgear. and they
suit her picturesque head and sweet
ly-pretty face better than women Of

Mr.. Campbell and Mr.. Huntoon

sons for letting loose here is to per-
nit Mr.. Huntoon to look after their

The business of the Independent

magnitude in the last few years that
his associates feel that Mr.. HuntOon.
who Is a large owner in the company,
should devote some Of his time to its
management. He will make Grand

The lumber business is not so much
a new line with Mr.. Hardy as some
might think-knowing only his con-
nection with The Record. He has
been closely identified with lumber
operations for several years and
knows q great deal about what he is
taking hold Of He will not take
possession until July 1st when he will
arrange to devote most OF his personal
attention to that business.
