FORMS ARE NOW
READY FOR CONCRETE

GRAND COULEE DAM, Dec. 2.
After two years of preliminary
work costing about $25, 100000
forms await the first concrete for
the massive Grand Coulee power
and irrigation dam.
The concrete will be poured on
the west side of the Columbia riv
er, to become part OF the dams
foundation. Pouring will be started
Dec. 6. The mixing plant cost SO,
900, 200.
Federal and state officials will
participate in ceremonies marking
the beginning of this work. 1t will
be the first upward" progress,
and will begin job that will take
two years or more to complete.
In the two years since the first
shovel bit into the dirt covering
the bedrock, thousands of laborers
have swarmed over the project,
working to the rattle of riveting
hammers, the roar of huge trucks
and the clatteT of machinery.
Millions of cubic yards of dirt
and rock have been excavated, one
OF the worlds largest cofferdams
has been built, two towns have
been constructed, the mighty Col
umbia bridged several times, and
an electrically operated cement
mixing plant, to do the work OF
hundreds of laborers, has been set
up.
The federal and state govern
ments have spent about $4,000,
900 for the preliminary work and
the MWAK company, builders of
the dam, about $4,000 900. The
foundation dam will cost $4,000,
900 and the high" dam and pow
er paints about 500, 100000 more
Only the foundation dam has been
authorized.
The concrete plant, marvel Of
engineering, will mix $4,000 cubic
yards in "a hours To feed these
mixers full trainload of cement
will be used every day, and two
five yard electric shovels will work
almost continuously, digging sand
and gravel from pits near the dam
site.
The dam is being built under
the public works program. The
first unit-or 'low'' dam, 800 feet
high and $500 feet long-will be
for power only. The contemplated
ultimate 500 foot barrier will pro
vide water for 1,2OO,OO0a rid acr
les in central Washington.

FIRST TEMPERED RAINBOW
GAS is VERY POPULAR

Gasoline sales of the TTue's Oil
Company have shown marked in
crease following the introduction
of Frost Tempered Rainbow, a
new winter gasoline made especi
ally for frigid temperatures, &C
cording to Cecil L. True, vice pres
ident of the company.
1--WE are very much gTatified at
the way motorists are accepting
this new winter gasoline" said Mr..
True. '"Our investigation showed
that, although frost tempered gas
oline has been sold in former
years, it has been so much improv
ed this year that it is unqlsestion
ably the best winter gas we have
ever placed on the market.
1.-THE distinctive feature of
this gasoline is that it vaporizes
more thoroughly than the ordin
airy high gravity winter gasoline.
AS a recult it not only starts quick
eT. gets under full power almost
instantly, and gives increased pow
er and mileage after the motor
has warmed up.
Rainbow dealers throughout
this territory reDort decided f1l
crease in business since Its intro
duction," Said Mr.. Wiley Not on
! ly are their old customers enthus1
astic about it. but new custimers
as we'll. Bearing out our belief il
is the finest winter gas we have
| ever offered is the fact that new
customers, as we'll as old ones are
most high I'm their praise Of this
frost tempered gasoline"

SPOKANE FIRM WINS
COULEE ROAD CONTRACT

Among the bids opened last
Tuesday by the state highway de-
partment was one calling for the
surfacing and grading of the Cou-
lee City Soap Lake highway. The
F. R. Hewett construction company
of Spokane was the low bidder
with a bid Of $11O,556. While the
contract was not awarded at the
time, Lacey v. Murrow state direc
tor of highways, is considering the
bids and the contract will be let
later in the week.
Since the government allocated
something over 3$132,000 for this
road a considerable sum will be
left over from the contract price
to straighten out the curves and
widen the road in places. Since
the heaviest part of the work is on
this end, in all probability work
will be started from the north.

BODY Of NOLAN RECOv-
Erred IN A MINE
From a MedEord Daild under date
of November II

yern E Nolasn of Medford, about
40 years of age, was crushed 10
death yesterday afternoon Vim mine
cavein at Miller's Gulch, II miles
north of Medford near the Paclhc
highway. Nolan, who moved to this
city from Marshfield several months
ago as part owner of the newly es
tabished Medford Auto Parts com
panty of East Main street, three
weeks ago said his interest In that
establishment and bought the mine
FROM J. M. Fsran11lin of M1ller's
Gulch.
Last night about $50 o'clock,
Franklin returned from work In
the Del Rio orchard, andseelng
Nolans coat and hat hanging near
the mine, walked over to converse.
He could find no trace of Nolan,
but walking UP to the placer work
ings. where the dead man had
been underwriting the bank WIN
a hydraulic iaozzle, he discovered
that 20 Or 80 tons of rock and DIRT
had fallen. Knowing that Nolan
must be under the slfcle ne called
his wife and dispatched her TOT
ndighbors to help dig.
Setting Immediately to WORK,
Franklip, Wallace Galbreath, Carl
Miller, Bob Anderson Tn omas liuno
ley, John Flemminf, w lila m Cor
ners, and Pete Krause dug frahtl
cally until 1880, when they unco'
cred the hfeless body, horribly
crushed.
Franklin said today that Nolan
had been underwriting the bank
for about ave or six feet, with cut
about four feet high. The rest OF
the bank, from there on UP for IL
feet, slipped away in one piece.
Those investigating the accident
believe that the cavein occurred be
J tween 4:3O and $3.50 o'clock yes
teTday afte rnoon. The hydraulic
ram was buried with Nolan, but
the pressure caused by the block
ing of the nozel had become sc
great that the gasoline motor had
been stall led. although the ignition
was still on. indicating that the
miner was cutting at the time oil
the cav Elm.
The body was brought to Nee
ford by deputy coroner Heroer
Brown who was summoned ana al
rived at the scene few minutes
before the ms.ngred body was fount
An examinat ion showed that thu
mans skull. had been crushed
with long cash along the RICH
sside, and both arms and bothe leg
as we'll as many other bones, weT
broken.
