It was originally planned, he said, to make a much larger project extending also up the east side of the valley as far as the Idaho line. The committee ran into dif ficuiUes here however, and rather than abandon the entire project, concentrated on a smaller dam and reservoir to serve the south end and west side for a short dis tanee past Mendon.

He said that the reclamation service, for many years has been active in Cache valley seeking probable sites for such projects. The Logan pnd Blacksmith Fork rivers were both carefully surveyed but it was found that any possible projects there would be far too expensive. Finally, the service turned to the Little Bear river, first surveying the Porcupine site, further up the river, and finally approving the sue as selected. The dam across the river will be largely of earth fill material, he said, and will be 82 feet high. 550 feet thick and 500 feet across the top when completed. The reservoir will fill the deep channel the early spring runoff, backing the water up several milesa nearly to Paradise and forming targe and beautiful body of water. Iirigation water will be taken tunfrom the reservoir through nels running directly under the on breakwhich the ground spot ing exercises were held. From there, they will split into a net work of canals circling the south and west ends of the valley.

The most, unusual canal, located 68 feet higher than the water level of the dam itself, will be fed by water pumped to that height Power will be furnished by the natural fall of the water as It feeds the lower h l&terals. , LOGAN, UTAH, L, He said that the service and project supporters were fortunate in having no power filings on the stream. He added that the Utah Power and Light company bad priority rights for their Cutler dam power plant but that they had waived rights on the Little Bear river in order thltt. the project might go ahead.

He paid tribute to the wealth and stability of Cache valley, pointing out that it passed through the economic depression without a financial disaster or major business failure. He added that tha new project for even presents possibilities further stability. He said that It was the farmer who made the project possible, the farmer who must pay and that business men owe an unqualified vote to the farmers for their cooperation. he Closing warned that completion of the not should be a signal to project sit back and rest.
