...larger than Boulder Dam, second in all the world only to Grand Coulee in Washington. Its whirling turbines will feed power through the West. Its huge bulk-580 ft. thick, more than 560 ft. high, 3,500 ft. long-will back water 35 miles up the Sacramento, Pit and McCloud rivers.

Since 1866 engineers have dreamed of throwing up a dam below the rivers' confluence, to stabilize the water supply of the whole fertile Sacramento Valley. Besides irrigation and flood control, hydroelectric power would be a byproduct, perhaps making profitable the mining of iron ores now locked in the wild Siskiyou Mountains north of Shasta...
