is the latest stunt completed by the
engineers of the service. BY closing
the entrance to a narrow canon on
the Shoshone river with the highest
dam in the world, broad mountain
meadow has been transformed into
lake which covers an area of over ten
square miles and is more than 100
feet deep. AS the lake is located In
the region of the Yellowstone Park,
the same wonderfully beautiful col
orings which make the park one OF the
show-posts of the country are to be
found in the vicinity of the lake
In addition to being thing of beau

sheep pasture of but little value
this land has become valuable agri-
