SOUTHERN PACIFIC'S
Big new BRIDGE

Work on one of the largest single span
nplift bridges ever to be constructed has
been started by the Southern Pacific
Company in San Pedro harbor. Caifor-
MIA The length OF the bridge is 1877 and
one half feet. The bridge will carry a
double track and will be operated BY
electric power, capable of lifting the
ponderous mass of steel in fifty seconds,
affording clear channel of 1855 feet for
the passage of boat traffic.
The new bridge is what is known as
the Strauss trunnion type, differing from
the Bascule bridge OF the Salt Lake
Railroad, also at San Pedro, in that the
latter is lifted on rocker, while the
Southern Pacific bridge will be lifted on
tail pin or hinge. 1t is also to be
double tracked. A latch operated by
motor will hold the bridge in place
when it is down. This new bridge will
replace the present Southern Pacific and
Pacific Electric trestle bridge.
The Southern Pacific Company made
application to the War Department
year ago for permission to build this
bridge, which was granted on the first
of December, last, on condition that the
structure would be completed within
wear The Southern Pacific engineers
have been working all for these months
in making tests for pier foundations and
studying the various designs of bridges
Test wells bored to depth of 100 feet
found nothing more solid in the harbor
bed than sand. Three coferdams are
now being constructed. They will be
bound with concrete and sunk to a
depth of forty four feet after which piles
will be driven to depth of eighty feet. |
Following the constructions of these
coferdans the water will be pumped
out and the interior concerted and
REINFORCED. Upon the base thus formed
the concrete piers will be erected to
height of ten feet above low water
mark, the superstructure to be built
upon these piers.
"S i"' SS'e W t"S p'S'S WIN w --N-|
feet and will enclose lS5 piles. Thirty
FIVE hundred yards of concrete will /,
compose the three piers. The King
Bridge Company of Cleveland is building I
the material from designs furnished by
the Strauss Bascule Bridge Company. /
The parts will soon be shipped to San /
Pedro and installation will probably +
begin about the first part of September.
The work is being done entirely by +
the Engineering Department of the
Southern Pacific Company

DRY LAND FARMING
NEAR CARSON CITY

At the Raycraft farm north of this
city there is the heaviest crops of grain
that has ever been produced on the place
This is strictly dry farm. Years ago
the water right was sold to the railroad
people and since that time the farm has
been working on the dry method,
Marion Little who for years worked
the place, always had good crops, but
under the new management it has been
vastly improved Land that was formely
regarded as ouly fit for pasture is now
put to use and is yielding a heavy crop
of grain.
One party who visited this place this
spring informed the owners that the
wheat which is growing would never
head properly. Samples of the grain
shows exceedingly heavy kernels. 1t
will produce more to the acre than
several of the irrigated farms in this
valley.
AT the present time the cutting of hay
is in full blast at the farm and an ex-
cee,lingly heavy crop is being stacked.
Modern dry farm methods have been
used the past couple of years in working
the soil and alkali lands. The alkali
lands in this instance are producing the
best grain on the farms. Those who are
interested in dry farming i'll this section
of Nevada can take some pointers from
this farm that will be of lasting benefit.

It is kaolin despoit, in a Assure vein, ranging from three to ten feet in thickness, and carries gold values of from IS to l6S a ton, and "A per cent aluminium. It is soft in texture and when placed in water readily dissolves. Only one other similar deposit in the country is known, located in Nevada. This peculiar ore was discovered on the surface and continues to the bot tom of the main working shaft, 100 feet without a break. At other points on the surface, where is seen over 400 feet of prospecting, the same condition has been established and the same values returned.
 Mir Block is expecting his investors n a short time, to begin operations, and with others engaged in the min ing business, very much interest at tends the exploration of this peculiar property, which stands in class by itself, and which is regarded by en- gineers generally as phenomenon.

Announce ment of the deal was made yesterday by Mir. Block, owner of the mines. The sale follows after several examin- ations made by different engineers, all of whom reported favorably. A re- duction plant is to be placed on the ground. sufficient ore being available from past development.
