VALUABLE WHEAT BURNED.
Fire East of SpearvlIe Burned Large
Amount of Russian Wheat.

Wednesday afternoon west bound
freight train set several prairie fires be-
tween Lewis and Spearvlle. The train
passed through here between two and
two.thirty and when some five Or six
miles west of here set fire to the wheat
fields of Bruno Hantz and G. W. and W.
r. Watson. The fire burned thirteen
large stacks OF wheat for the Watson's
and nearly all the wheat and barley of
Bruno Hantz. A number of farmers from
surrounding farms were soon assisting in
fighting the fire and 1t was soon confined
to a small track. The elements were
with the fire fighters as the wind changed
to the north and the fire was soon ex.
tingulshed. Several stacks of wheat be-
yond Offerle were burned and 1t was re-
ported here that the church in 0fferle had
burned, but this is a mistake. The
wheat burned for Watson was a crop
raised from the Russian wheat imported
last season and the seed was all contracted
for at one dollar per bushel which will
make the Watsons' loss considerable. -

TONIC DAM PROJECT.
Active Preliminary WOrk.-New
Contracts to Be Let.

a. p. Davis, Louis c. Hill, H. y
Storrs, Edward T. Duryea. J. II
/ Quinton and NJ. Bien, all connected
with the reclamation service of tn,
geological survey, were in town during
/ the week.
Messrs. Davis, Hill and Storrs came
( in from the Touto reservoir site or
Tuesday, and Mr. Davis took the train
Wednesday morning for Phoenix
Messrs. Hill and Storrs have since re-
turned to the upper Salt river, from
whence the former expected to 20 over
the route for the transmission line tC
Phoenix.
Mr.. Storrs is the electrical enginee r
of the reclamation service and he will
soon be very busy at the damsite. The
electric percussion drills to be used in
driving the diversion tunnel and in
excavating the foundations for the
cement mill, machine shop, storage
bins, etc, arrived here several days
ago and have been taken down to the
river.
1t is expected that bids for the con-
struction of the diversion tunnel,
which is to carry all the water in the
river around the dam during the
period Of construction, will soon be
called for. This tunnel is in itself a
big undertaking, as its dimensions
will be II l3 feet, and 600 feet long.
The survey for the power canal,
construction work on which is expect
ed to begin within a month, is still in
progress. Several changes have been
made in the course, and Mr.. Dayis is
now very we'll satisfied with it. The
cost o; this canal is estimated at
5000, 900.
Good progress is being made in road
building. Two new camps have been
started on the route for the trans
mission line. The poles for this line
are being cut in the Sierra Ancha and
Mr.. Davis thinks they will not cost
oyer one dollar apiece delivered.
Mr.. Duryea, the cement expert, is
looking after the starting OF work on
the foundation of the cement mill on
which workmen will begin at once.
While the plant to be used is con-
sidered small one, it will cost 800
600. The capacity of the plant will be
800 barrels a day.
The machinery for the saw mill,
cement mill, etc, will begin to arrive
within two weeks. Men are being
adde1 to the force almost every day
but the big increase will not come
until work begins on the power cana.
