zona. Great changes have been made in t e appearance of this part of the valley during the last four years. 1t was about that long ago that the Florence canal was completed and the work of actual improvement begun. It is useless se deny that under our present water system there is nothing like suffi- cient water to irrigate this vast body of land.
 THE CASA GRANDE VALLEY CANAL is forty three miles In length and covers 60cOO acres of land, about 7,000 of which are under cultivation. It is so constructed that it cRn be easily enlarged and it's capacity in- creased. A reservoir covering 1,600 acres, having storage capacity of eight billion gall Ions, in the southeast corner of township t, range 8, gives ample supply of water the year round to all farmers located below it, but those above suffer by shortage of water during a few weeks in summer.
 It is proposed to remedy this by the con struction of q huge reservoir at the Buttes, fifteen miles northeast of Florence. Com potent engineers have examined and reported upon the scheme and pronounce it feasible.
