New Dam TO be Conctructed Across

White Salmon River at euler.
euler, Wash.-The White Salmon
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-05-06

Ditch company is making arrange
ments whereby the flow of water from
the White Salmon river will, be in
creased in order that more irrigation
Of lands in this vicinity may be done.
A dam will be constructed across
the White Salmon river about three
miles above euler, and large ditch
will be made to carry the water. The
headgate will be made at the dam.
The ditch company has had an ir-
rigation system in operation for sew
eral years, but the high water during
last winter damaged the dam to such
an extent that it has been decided to
construct a better one and to make
wider and deeper bitches. The water
from this ditch is free TO settlers, but
they will assist in constructing the
system.

THE EARTH Is ELASTIC.
SAYS PROFESSOR MILNE

London.-That the earth is elastic,
and is pulled out of shape by action
of the tides. has been discovered" by
Professor Milne, the leading English
authority on earth phenomena. AS
the result of experiments he has found
that twice in every twentyfour hours,
at high tide. the buildings along the
opposite sides Of tidal basins salute
each other"
The experiments were carried out
at Bidston Observatory, near Liver
pool. one and a half miles from the
sea. with a modified form of seismo-
graph designed to record tidal effects
and the more minute movements
which other seismographs would not
or not often record The instrument
recorded, photographically, a tilt on
the pillar supporting It, causing a def
mite deflection on the film.
At high tide the bed of the Irish
sea became depressed from an in
creased load. and the effect of this
was to pull the shores together At
Ridston the amount Of DETECTION was
about equal to one inch in sixteen
miles
Professor Milne many years ago
showed that our ordinary appar-
emily stable. English valleys open
ed when the sun fell upon them and
contracted during the night He also
showed that apparently the whole OF
the Isle of Wight tits up at high tide
owing to the English channel as COM
pared with that in the Solent
His latest work is the complement
Of earlier research and tends to show
that the earth is a great deal more
elastic and responsive to pulls and
strains than is commonly appreciated
