Mir Bishop reports that the crops raised this year by tbe Mormons at Colonia Morales were un- usually good, the wheat being especial ly excellent in quality. The floods of last year took away all the dams and irrigating ditches, but these have all been replaced and the colony is in a prosperous condition.

sALToN SEA WORTH
 MILLIONS TO S. P. ROAD

| Vital statistic sare now made public why the Southern Pacific is so anx ious to turn the Colorado river back and in working to shut the Colorado river out from the Imperial valley and the Saiton Sea. the company is play ing for big stakes.
 First, the preservation of its present overland railway.
 Second, the freight and passenger business of the Imperial valley, which Is dependent upon the issue. Third, the obtaining of 200,0e0 acres of new land made by the deposit of the silt of the flood. and which will be worth to the company, if reclaimed. not less than s5.000, 900.
 Under such stimulus and for such a stake the Southern Pacific can not af- ford to lose. The Salton Sea is doom ed. It will be evaporated off the map of the desert. It will pay the compa- ny to turn the river, even though it cost the company twenty times what the estimates have made it.
 It is estimated that the soil thus de posted has covered an area compris- ing 100000 acres with new and rich soil to a depth of ten feet in thick ness. This has been spread over lands that before were worthless be- cause of their alkaline nature.
 It is believed that this will have buried the akalai to a depth which will forever put it beyond harm, and that just so much rich arable land will have been added to the valley.

HEAVY COLLECTIONS AT
 CUSTOMS HOUSE.

Already this month there has been collected and forwarded to Nogales by a special collector over s600 in duties paid in at the local customs house, an amount which considerably more than pays the expenses of the port.
 The business of this port has been growing rapidly for some time and is daily becoming port of increasing im- portance. In addition to the importa- tions upon which duty is paid. a vast amount of non-duty paying imports come through this port, chief of which are non-lead bearing ores from So nora. Large quantities of this which recently went to the smelter at Fl Paso are now being treated by the Copper Queen smelter, which is grad ually absorbing all of the Sonora ore business.
 The only interest the government has in these ores is to see that none of them carry lead or zinc. which min erals bring to the government a reve- nue of l 1-2 cents a pound The amount Of lead and zinc in fhe ores, if there be any, is ascertained by talk ing commercial samples from the sampling rooms of the Copper Queen for inspection by customs official These are then sent to.the government assayer at Nogales and upon his cer- tificate duty is assessed if there be any.
 Judge Reecesdoss not believe in let ting money accumulate about the clIs- toms house and as soon as $100 is on hand it is sent to Nogales.

Government Planning to Ex- pend Half Million for the Benefit of Indians Along the Salt River.
Appropriation Is Reported to Have Been Made For lrriga- ton Scheme By the Indian Department.

An appropriation of s5O0.ooo by the Indian department for the installing of power plant at Mormon fiat on the Salt river and the development of nearly GOO horse power 10 be used by the Sacaton Indians in pumping water for irrigation is now among the pos abilities. says the Phoenix Enter prise.
 Mormon fat fifty miles up Salt river from Phoenix. offers an excel lent site for the development of elec- trie power, the government having all ready thought favorabiy enough of the project to three years ago have sur vey made by it's engineers.
 An erroneous report was circu- lated few days ago to the effect that the government had appropriated S3,0o0.o00 for the purpose of building the power plant and carrying the cleo tricity to the Sacaton reservation. there to be used in pumping water from an underground reservoir that recent borings are said to have dis covered.
 Asked this morning if any appro- priation had been made or if one was likely to be made shortly, Engineer Ed Parish stated that no money has yet been definitely set aside for che purpose. but that it would not sur prise him to hear at any time now tbat the Indian department had de- cided to start work on the scheme
 Three years ago Engineer Parish made an investigation of the possi- bilities at Mormon flat and found that by running a tunnel $500 feet long a fall of fifty feet would be obtained in that distance, sufficient with an aver age amount of water to generate nearly 600 horse power.
 During the lass spring and summer W. H. Code, engineer for the Indian department, spent several weeks in the vicinity of Mormon fiat gathering data on the project and 1t Is now be- lieved that on the strength of the re- port he has made the department has practically decided to go ahead with the scheme.
 Sacaton lies about fifty miles from Mormon fiat, and the power would have to be carried that distance. Whether or rot any of it would be apportioned to the Salt river reserva- ton. which is only about twenty miles away. has not been announced.
 The plan of the government. as out lined at the time the investigations were first made. was to put in dam for power purposes at Mormon fiat; with this power to develop electricity which should be conveyed by line to Sacaton and used there to pump water for the Indian lands.
 To this end experimental wells were sunk and a temporary powerhouse erected. The experiment iemonstrat- ed that there was an unfailing under ground reservoir with water sufficent for the needs of the Indians would be an expensive undertaking. and the appropriation will enable the install lation of a plant that will furnish all the power needed at a small cost

FRUITGROWERS ARE wAGING
WAR on THE COOLING MOTH

Orchardists. as rule. are busy this
week spraying their fruit trees with
a view of forestalling the work of the
codling moth and of its destructive
progeny, the apple worm. With
wisdom born of experience the snc-
cessful orchardist makes it a point 10
spray his trees at the earliest possible
moment after the fall of the bloom. as
by so doing he minimizes the danger
from the enemies of the fruit One
of the most commonly used and eff
fective sprays is arsenate of lead, five
pounds to one hundred gallons OF
water. II will not injure the foliage
of the trees and adheres to the EN-
bryo apple better than any other poi
son. Many fruit growers give their
trees second spraying in from five to
ten days after the first one. using a
somewhat more diluted solution. OF
four pounds of arsenate of lead to the
hundred gallons of water.
