At places the new channel will be three miles from the old bed, if the plans** 1are carried out and. there are places where the new bed will be 300 feet wide. The estimated cost is, $400,000.• The course of Eel River through these counties is a tortuous one. The many bends and crooks of the0, ■; ■ ' - . ■ .
