FINDS RARE. PLANT SPECIMENS
 IN sAWTooTH's

Chas Thornton. whose botanical re- searches in this section have resulted in the discovery by him of several forms of plant life not hitherto known to be included in the flora of Alaska, returned q few days ago from stay of several weeks in the Sawtooth Mountains, where he secured some fine additions to his remarkable collection of plant specimens. including several forms which he believes are possibly unclassifed and in any event evceed- ingly rare. During his stay the wealth CT was decidedly adverse. Snow fell and laid on the ground for three days and much of the time he was compelled to stay under cover. As result Ms efforts were considerably handicapped but he is nevertheless much pleased with the results of the journey and the fine specimens obtained.

hARsoR WORK
 MAKING PROGRESS

Work on the Snake River harbor construction is proceeding at an i'm creased pace since the subsidance of the big blow of recent days. Present activities are directed to repairing the damaged section of the east .etty and otherwise fortifying the structure against future injury.
 The revetment lining the east bank of the channel is being extended a considerable distance to the south and will cover the break in the jetty re- sulting from the severe flood last fall. The work is being done in most sub stantial manner and every precaution Is being taken by Engineer Carpen- ter to avoid repitition of last falls washout. The heavy 10 x 12 piling IS being driven many feet lower than was the case last year and all supports and braces are of considerably larger di- mensions. To all appearances the new construction Is as strong as 1t can possibly be made with timber mater ials. In addition to securely placing the piling. Mir Carpenter also intends to further fortify the revetment by lining 1t with cement work along the channel. This is to be accomplished by building up wall of sacks filled with n cement mixture against the channel side of the timber work from the bottom to point below the water line. When the cement has set. this will virtually form a wall of rock along the revetment and will in all proba- bility effectually prevent the under mining process responsible for the damage last year.
