ENERGETIC GRAHAM.
Quick Becuperation from the Effects
 of the Flood.

A Quick Recuperation from the Effects
 of the Flood.
 From the Graham County Bulletin.
 The farmers of the Gila valley in Gra- ham county are made out of the right kind of metal, and the way they have taken hold of the work of repairing the damage sustained by them during the recent floods is greatly to their credit, and demonstrates that for energy and unfaltering perseverance they cannot be excelled in any country. There was not a single ditch on the river that escaped injury, and the work of repairing many has been almost equal to the cost of their original construction.
 But every day since the water receded shovels have flashed in the rays of the morning sun and the last at night as the orb of day disappeared behind Mount Graham, until now the ditches and dams are announced to be nearly completed, and in few days water will be again running in all of them in plenty of time to water the growing crops before any of them suffer. The damage in the valley has proven to be much lighter than at first estimated. Some of the land was injured, and now and then piece was totally destroyed with the crop on it, but in many cases the land was benefited by having a rich sediment deposited upon it several inches deep.
