GREAT n A7ER POWER
PLAN7 GIN BE BUILT
1T THE LITTLE BEND


In response to a request for full
information regarding the potential
water power at the Little Bend of the
Missouri, thirty-fiye miles above
Pierre, Doane Robinson, the state
historian, has replied with a very in
teresting story of what might be
done. The scheme involves the ex-
penditure OF approximately 100000
900 but it is figured that it can be de-
pended upon to produce an ANIMAL
revenue of $4,000, 600 per annum
with the cost OF upkeep and opera
ton relatively light, thus practically
paying for itself in five or six years.
All this providing the current can be
marketed.
BY DOANE ROBINSON.
Mr.. Robinson's account follows:
Little Bend is located in the west
ern part of Sully county, thirty-five
miles above Pierre. AT this point
there is a loop in the FLYER nineteen
miles around and 1900 yards across
the neck. The fail across the neck is
eighteen feet and one inch. On the
north side of this neck the channel
and flood plain are unusually mar
row: it being but 1920 feet from
shale bluff to shale bluff; a ridge of
shale more than $50 feet high traver-
SEES the neck. To develop a great wat
er power at Little Bend it will be
necessary to construct a concrete
dam down into bed rock, from shale
bluff to shale bluff, across the chan.
mel and flood plain at the point OF
the north side of the neck and to ex-
cavate a canal through the high bluff
across the neck and to divert the
river through this chanal, in which q
lock for navigation and power dan
and works nus be placed: flood wat
ers will fall over the big dam in tbs
old channel.
Experts Report.

The amount of water which ma.
be developed is not difficult to aI
proximate. Unfortunately the flow O
the Missouri has not been measure
in South Dakota, but such measure

constructed for hat point. A gag

but is on the safe side; that is Littl
