Abstract

"After eight years spent at Rimrock in the midst of the great activity occasioned by the building of the huge Tieton dam, J. C. Ralston, government purchasing agent now see the end of his work in sight. During this time Mr. Ralston has watched a mountain gorge untouched by the hand of man, grow into the greatest dirt dam of the world. Every piece of equipment used, every load of material that went into that dam, every article of stock for the supply store and every morsel of food fed to the workmen passed through Mr. Ralston's hands on paper and received his okeh before being purchased."
