This greatest power dam, largest power house and electrical installation, and by far the greatest water-power development in the world, is in the Mississippi River at Keokuk, Iowa.

Fort Madison, Twenty-five miles distant, expects to benefit greatly by the industrial growth this water-power will stimulate.
