 RESERVOIR SITES.
 Tn examining the san Pedro Valley. le ca 6 lou; two points where rescr- .oi cal he 1ri't 10 advantage:
 r. -t-At Point A" On the lower rp frp Q. ,ie valley at a point where lae .or.l1is come close together with suUi locg unod each side and bottom. at tu- place. known as the Niger Ben place. about fifteen miles below or uut..l O. inc own or Bcnson. where a dan 55J eet in ieugh and forty fee. hi n will overflow au area of mile ,.ra q and average ten feet deep. or a -o-age capacity of Z1N,tSi OO0 cubic feet. The area oi bottom land and low table land that could be ir7i- -a ed by the construction oi lhis dam wprid be in Cochise county over 5000 acres.
 Point B"-The second reservoir site on the valley is one and one-hali miles above Charleston, and twenty six miles above Benson, where the foot hills cone down to the river forming >uui rock banks for over a hundred feet high, where q dam sixty feet in height aud iour hundred feet long would store over 3UOUOOOD0 cubic fee. Oi water. There are several places along his valley where there are broad
 ches Of almost level bottom land, wi.ere underground dams, that is .t,,..f.-. .l. cut to bedrock or clay and filled with concrete, could be placed that would rai.c he underground current to such a ,lu,pt that thousands of acres could be h.ought under cultivation without irrigation and save the expense of a ches, and the great loss by evapora- tion.
 STORAGE.
 With this system of underground storage reservoirs, ditches from these dams can he taken out much higher up ou tnc bot om lands thus bringing under cultivation hundreds of acres aaj cannot now bc irrigated from thc main channel oi ihe river. This sys- ,em Of underground dammiug would o0iy expose Tor evaporation the mar rp's channel of tbe river, which wonld Jt but a small percentage above that Oi the present ream. There are several points along the San Pedro Iiyer upon tDe west side where storage reservoirs could be built
 Pomt "C."-At point e, ," in what is known as Pages Canon, which drains rom the sou,herly portion of Happy Valley, where there is running water the entire year. At this point the canon is narrow, and walls solid, where a dam l60 feet in length and 7j feet | high will store over 2U0, 100000 cubic feet of water and bring under cultiva- | ton over 200O acres that cannot now be cultivated owing to the sinking oi ] the water below the canon.
 There are large flats to the east and west of Benson, where the soil Is first
