Rankin and Knowlton Survey Near Klamath Falls
Two Southern Pacific engineering crews neared Klamath Falls surveying new road routes in Klamath county. Rankin’s team of about fifteen completed a forty mile survey from the city toward the lake while Knowlton’s crew of twenty tied into Southern Pacific yards and began a center valley survey. Snow halts progress north of the marsh, and a plan shift suggests the Alturas line may terminate in Klamath Falls with southward work to establish permanent locations.

A fully supplied city of at least 30000 residents would almost double current revenue from 6000 annually. An auxiliary pumping plant was also discussed but less popular. Lang creek lies in government reserve east of town, fed by Bohemia mountains snowmelt. DeWitt's Carbonized Witch Hazel Salve is marketed by druggists.
