$50 second feet of water.
Water from Rapid creek was turn
ed into the flume Tuesday and will
be used to tighten up and settle the
canal from the mouth of the creek to
the power house, and water from
Plateau creek will be turned in by to-
morrow, and similarly used from that
point down to Rapid creek.
The party came down the power
canal from the headgate to the power
house and the work itself gives every
evidence of early completion. and its
substantial character stands out
stronger the closer the inspection.
That there will be more or less trou-

not be doubted, but no more than is
usual to any new work, and it will

THE WATER ON MESA BY MAY Is

tends up and down the river, and 1t
takes seventeen of these cribs, side
by side, to reach across the river,
forming the backbone of a dam forty
six feet from head to foot and $40
feet across from bank to bank of the
river. A heavy concrete roof, slight
ly pitched, runs from the front, or
up river portion of the dam, back
forty feet, and all of the rocked filled
cribs are tied together with large
steel rods reinforcing this concrete
roof. Six feet up the river from the
face of the dam, steel slabs, sixteen
inches wide and eight feet long, the
edge of one fitting snugly into the
edge of the other, will be driven into
the river bed to depth of six feet,
leaving two feet standing as barri
cade in front of the base of the dam.
The six feet intervening space will
be filled first with a layer of willow,
tied in bundles about six inches in
diameter and then alternated with
sacks of rock, until the compound
reaches the height of the base of the
dam. Now, draw line from the top
of the down-the-river end of the dam
to a point twenty feet away in the
river bed below and all of the space
underneath the line will be filled
with the largest boulders that can be
handled, as reserved force to hold
the cribs, and as water shed to pre-
vent water from falling perpendic-
ularly over the foot where there
would be a possibility of this fall
undermining the dam.
II an enduring diversion dam can
be built in the Grand river, this
seems to fill the bill.

The Flume and Canal.

From the headgate to the power
plant it is 900 miles, and five miles
of this is flume. This flume cost the
contractors five dollars per lineal
foot, when on earth or rock base, and
six dollars per foot when tresseled
There is something like 5000, ,h0i
feet of Oregon fir lumber in THU
work. The flume is twelve feet frorl
side to side, and six feet deep, the
sides and bottom are made of two
inch Oregon fir, dressed. The base
upon which the bottom rests and the
side studding are six by six inches,
set every three feet, held in place by
cleats at the bottom and a three
quarter inch iron bar fastened with
bolts, holds each pair together at the
top. Where the fluming crosses
gulches, the timbers are all heavier.
The flume work is all complete ex-
cept about 200 feet There are four
big spillways from the headgate to
the power house.
At Plateau creek the flume delivers
the water into two continuous wood
stave pipes, seven feet in diameter,
and this pipe carries it under the bed
of the creek, and delivers to the
flume on the opposite bank. The
power canal, of ditch and flume. is
practically all completed, except odds
and ends here and there and will be
ready for service by the early days of
May.
Mr.. Henderliter, the chief engineer
of the project, and a man of wide
experience in such matters. is of the
opinion that the flume work will last
for fifteen years, barring, of course,
repairs that are made necessary by
unavoidable accidents to all work of
this kind.

IMMENSE VALUE OF
THE MEAT PACKING
INDUSTRY IN COUNTY
TOTAL VALUE or CURED HOG
PRODUCTS AT LEAST 100000
A YEAR.
BUY TEN THOUSAND ANIMALS
Seventeen Firms and individuals Are
Engaged in the Business and last
Year Some Small Fortunes Were
Made In Profits.


That the meat packing industry In
Maury county is one of much greater
magnitude than is generally believed
Is demonstrated by an investigation
and a compilation OF the statistics
of the business. It is conaervatlvely
estimated that not less than 100000
Is invested every year in hogs by
those who pack for markets in the
county. The sum may in some years
be larger than this, 1t was probably
larger last year, but that is about q
fair average.
There are not less than seventeen
firms and individuals in Maury coun-
ty who are engaged In the business
of placing meat for market, thnt IL
this number engage in the work as q
business and not merely as a side
line to their farming operations.
These packers will use from 100 to
1,500 hogs each. The average hog
that is packed weighs about $50
pounds and the average cost to the
packers is close to $25.
Assuming that there are $500 to
10000, about an average of 500 hogs
packed by each packer in the county
and the total will amount to $780,
900 easily. It is estimated that Il
costs close to $1.00 per head to pack
these hogs and cure the meat. A con-
siderable portion of this sum is paid
out for labor, making quite sub
stantial addition to the pay rolls OF
the county.
The meat packing business in this
county is growing all the time. Dur.
Ing the past four or i've years 1t has
made wonderful strides and has now
come to be one Of the great indus
.ries Of the county. Last year sever
Il of the packers made what in olden
times would have been considered
mall fortunes, as the, result of their
,rofits from the meat packing husi-
less. Returns are not expected to
'e SO good this year due to the de-
line in the price Of hogs.
The Maury county hog is univer.
ally recognized as one of the best
not the best that goes on the
outhern table. Some of the older
