cast a shadow over their promised prosperity. The Arizona dam was carried away by the floods and the canals it was supposed to fill with water were left without a supply for irrigation, For those less familiar with local conditions. let it be ex- plained tlat this was a. diversion dam thirty miles below the si1e of the Tonto dam and was mot for storage purposes but merely to turn the water from the river into big ditch from which other canals were supplied. l. was crib dam of timber construc- tion
 Apparently this was the last of a series Of drawbacks which had exte1d- ed through several years of drought It left land owners who were depend- ent upon the Arizona canal with abso- lutely no prospect Of near relief. Il is true they had the assurance Of the ultimate saving of their holdings by the use Of wa-er from the TontO reser- voir, but that was years in the future and meanwhile they seemed destined 10 see their trees die and fields become brown and barren from the lack Of moisture to nourish the crops. Tem- poTary repairs could be and were later made 70 relieve the situation under the other canals by means of the re- construction of brush dams further GOwn stream, but the vast body cf land under the Arizona. 50,G0O acres. in

 It was then the natural buoyaacy and aopcfulness of the Arizola farm CT asserted itself He had grown ac- cUstomed to taking iong chances-to farming on prospects and eXpecta- Gons, and m consequence was not slow to take another chance A common peril tended to unite for tine common good clashinS interests which had sometimes worked at cross purposes. While it was known the canal system raight be acquired by the government. if satisfactory terms could be agreed upon. it was not hoped tais settlement of vexinS question could be accom- piished Save at the expense of much time and Incidentally much money in the loss of crops while negotiations were pending. It was Q time for ac- ton and prompt action, too. No ona realized this fact more quickly than the farmer and it took him but a shor: time to decide to act.
 Permanent relief even with govern ment control of the canals could come only after the building of 6 stable di- version dam of concrete construction on Q solid f2Undation and this would mean tae loss of whole season Of irrigation. The alternative. and tenn porary, eEpcdient was the extension of the Arizona canal about $500 feet upstream to a new and more favor

 The power generated at the dam is to be used primarily for construction purposes, to operate the biz hoists and to light the scene so that work may go on continuously day and night. Much of it is'to be used in operating the cement mill another feature Of the work which deserves a word by itself.
 Along with the suitable rock for building the dam, was found nearby q large deposit of limestone and clay for making fine quality Of Portland ce- ment at less cost than the expense of
