WATER STORAGE.
An Immense Dam and System
 of bitches Proposed.


 A water storage and ditch enterprise which would prove of great benefit to this part of the country Is now being considered by the St. Johns Irrigation company. It is proposed to dam the Little Colorado at narrow polnt in the canyon, about i've miles south ot i town. The character of the dam as proposed is that of the "crib" variety. 1 The water will be discharged into the natural channel of the river, which will be utilized for tEe rest of the dis tance through the canyon. A second dam would be placed at the northern mouth of the canyon of sufficient heighth to raise the water ten or twelve feet. From here a ditch could be con- structed that would place the immense mesa, or about six thousand acres of land, west of this place entirely under water for irrigation. The total amount ofland that could possibly be reclaimed by this project is not less than twelve thousand acres, and is of quality un- surpassed in the Territory.
 The reservoir above the dam, 1t Is claimed, would store water sufficient to irrigate thls immense body of land. It is proposed to make the embankment forty-tive feet high, and as there is comparatively little fall in the river for considerable distance above the canyon, some idea of the amount of water to be stored may be imagined. It is said that the water would be at least twenty feet higher than that now in the large reservoir built at Salada Springs two years ago.
 Civil Engineer Stafford, at the head of party of our citizens composed of J. B. Patterson. Dr. s. M. Craig, W. H. Gibbons, Dr. W, E. Platt, o. c. Over son, c. P. Anderson and Captain Wal ter G. Scott, made preliminary survey of the entire project, including route for the ditch, on last Tuesday. A feas- ible way to bring the water up on the mesa was found, and MT. Stafford dem
  tire party that the plan was practicable and that the whole work could be con- pleted at cost not to exceed two dol lars per acre.
 It has long been apparent to all that the land which would be thus reclaimed and brought under irrigation is of a superior quality, and is capable of high degree of cultivation. Should the project materialIze, the result would be that within a year the population of thls place would be at least doubled, the increased acreage being sufficient | for the maintenance of at least two hundred additional families.
 Another thing, the location of this ditch would have the effect of consid- erably ameliorating our condition in regard to the wind. Being directly southwest of town, the cultivation of the land, planting of trees, vineyards, etc, would have the effect of a barrier | from the winds from that direction. l With the spring winds eliminated, or 1 even moderated to some extent, this 1 valley would become one of the most 1 pleasant spots in which to reside in the Territory. With less wind, this climate would be as near perfection as could be We hope, in the near future, to chronicle the permanent survey and | location of the reservoir and ditch, and that active work on the enterprise has been commenced.

The Santa Fe, Prescott and Phenix Railroad officials have announced that hereafter they will pay $7 per head for cattle killed by thelr trains, and noth- ing for horses, To an outsider this may seem a wrong, as pertaining to the horses, but the factis it is generosity on the part of the company-actual gener- osity. Range horses are absolutely worthless, and menhave been out shoot ing them to save taxes. Guns and shells post money, to say nothing of time taken to kill the animals. Therefore, it is generosity on the part of the company to kill the horses. The fact IS, the rail- road should be paid say two or four tits head by the owners, for freeing them of nuisance.-Los Angeles Times.

Mrs. Rhodie Noah, of this place, was taken in the night with cramping pains and the next day diarrhoea set in. She took half bottle of black berry cordial but got no relief. She then sent to me to see if had anything that would help her. 1 sent her bottle of Cham berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and the first dose relieved her. Another of our neighbers had been sick for about week and had tried different remedies for diarrhoea but kept getting worse. I sent him this same remedy. Only four doses of 1t were required to cure him. He says he owes his recov- cry to this wonderful remedy.-Mrs. Mary Sibley, Sidney, Mich. For sale by St. Johns Drug Co.,.
