Among the several large projects, one Oh
especial interest is located in northern wy
oming. When the springtime showers and
sunshine fall upon the snowy peaks OF tne
lofty mountains on the eastern rim OF YER
Iowstone park a thousand streams Will rush
downward to fill to trimming the swift+iowing
Shoshone river. An important physical change
will occur at that time. The flood that once
unchecked and uncontrolled, swept madly
through the rock-walled gorge will beat Itself
to stiffness against a massive wall OF concrete
with which man has blocked the canon. A
beautiful lake, 100 feet deep and covering ten
square miles, will appear.
In this wonderful cash in the mountains
with perpendicular walls a thousand feet nlgn,
the government has erected the highest dam
in the world. 1t is a wedge Of concrete S2S
feet from base to top. It's height can only
be appreciated when compared with tnat OIL
some wellknown structure. New York's ia
nous Flatiron building would not reach within
At feet of the top of the dam, and the tp-top
of the dome of the United States capitol would
fall short 81 feet of the parapet.
In, the summer, when the crops are thirsty,
the big gates will be opened and the pent-up
floods will be released into the river below.
