Everyone In Arizona Ia hoping that

pirate money for the construction of q
dam at Twin Buttes. shout twenty-Jix
miles from Florence, a. this is essential
to our continued prosperity"
The speaker Wa II. X. Storer. an at
torney OF Pinal county, Arizona. says the
Denver Republican.
This dam, when built, will impound q
body Of water 30 great that at the lowest
calculation II will irrigate almost
$4,000 acres Of the fertile lands OF Casa
Grande valley" continued Mr.. storer.
"The department Of the interior has set
aside q fund for building a road to the
site Of the dam. This Is almost COM
pleted, and the work has enabled the max
ing Of soundings to bedrock, which In
every instance has proved satisfactory.
The point TO be damned Is In the center
OF ella river. The back water that will
be created by this dam will extend for
miles up the river. reaching 10 and be
yond borders Of New Mexico, and thus
will be an endless source Of wealth to a
vast country which needs only water TO
make II equal any in the world.

true. Seven crops Of alfalfa are cut every

In nine months. The irrigation problem

much OF which goes to waste.
