AMBITIONS OF A HoMESTEADING

Plan to lrrigate Exclusively From Un- dersround Supply of Water.

Stranger things have happened than
 Higleys' postoffice. Higley-Higley. it
 is the first switch between here and Florence that the train don't whistle | for To be more exact. it is a siding located on the P. & F.. railroad ap- proximately eight and one-half miles
 out of Mesa.
 Higley has quietly rested all these years. basking in the summer sun. con tented and alone. Until nOw-several enterprising homesteaders would pry
 it loose and roll 1t off down the track i for a mile and a half and make It
 stand and listen to all those awful
 things that have to go the rounds al the country store, from the discrepan- cies of the United States constitution to the latest information from the
 Henderson girl that run off with a
 travelling man from the city. Poor
 Higley!
 J. Beal. a hOmesteader who has To-
 cated about a mile and a half this side
 of the switch, is the prime mover in the proposition to transfer Higley to the settlement. and in this he claims that he has the approval of the rail road officials. or in ether words. that the railroad officials will put in an- other siding at a point nearest the set tlement and call it Higlev- In case this is done 1t Is the purpose of Mir. Beal to put up store building I'm mediately. and of course the postoffice would follow. MT. Beal has been on the desert some time. long enough at least to have d reservoir of nearly a
 hundred thousand gallons, cement lin ed and supplied with water pumped from his S3-fOot well by means of gas oIine engine power. This settlement IS
 beyond the water users boundary and will of course have to depend upon pumped water-that is. unless the Queen Creek irrigation scheme could be put through, and even in that event it Is hardly a possibility that this land would come under.

SOMETHING OF MESA DAIRY AND
 ICE co. PLANT.
Side Lines to Be Added-Running ES- penses to Be Cut Down.

Eight hundred rectangular shaped packages, resembling in facial design the state of Kansas, only hardly as large. are coined daily at the Mesa Dairy and Ice cOmpany's plant and pass for legal tender all over Arizona. parts of New Mexico and a consider able portion of the north part of old Mexico. where people have any use for a regulation sized pound of butter. However. 1t is little use to remark on the merits of Mesa butter. for the fame of the article has long been known. When the data for this article was be ing gathered yesterday there were just five pounds of butter on hand in the cold storage room. and one Of them was presented to the reporter. The company is now between i.511 and 2.OOO pounds behind with its orders.
 But to return to the improvements under way at the plant. which is the purpose of this article The evident intention of the management is first. to insure absolute cleanliness; second. tO reduce the running expenses by new methods. at the same time increasing the output; third. to enlarge the plant and to include side lines.
 IL is hardly necessary to remark that cleanliness is an essential in butter making. yet eternal vigilance is the price of sanitary creameries. Tn re spect to cleanliness. the local plant has always been regarded as exceptionally exceptional. but even that Is unsatisfy-

GAME WAS LOST AND
 WON IN THE NINTH
University Boys Break Even With the Normals by Winning Yesterdays Game.

The second game between the Nor maj nine and the aggregation from Tucson was lost by the local team in the ninth. With the score to l in favor of the Normals in the eighth inning. the University boys turned the tables by making five runs in the last inning. making the final score to 5.
 This was the second game in a series of four between the Normals and the team from the University of Arizona. The first game. which was played Fri day, resulted in a victory for the local team.
 The game yesterday was played be fore a large and enthusiastic crowd of rooters Up to the end of the seventh it was a first-class exhibition of the American game. The players were pre- else and accurate. the fielding excel lent and the batteries of both teams keyed up to the top notch. The Nor mals succeeded in gaining one run in the first and another in the second. The game then ran along for four in nings without either side scoring It began to look as though the University boys never would get a run until the seventh came ana lIlC Ice was DTOhtH. One run resulted in this inning for the visitors. In the eighth the Nor mals made three and the day looked squally for the visitors.
 The ninth inning was disastrous for the home team. The Normals got nothing but the University boys be- gan q sort of follow the leader" pro- cession around the bases until five men had scored and they did not need any more. Some said that the over-confidence of the home team and others said good playing on the part of the visitors did it Anyway. the Tucson boys took the night train back home feeling somewhat cheered up because they broke even when il was least expected of them.
 The batteries for the home team were Cuber and Morris and for the visitors Roberson and Rice. The um- pire was Berry. Return games will be played in Tucson in about two weeks

THE RIVER CROSSING
 BECOMES POSSIBLE
4 Consequence of the Closing of the
 Gates at Roosevelt.

So low has Salt river fallen as a result of the closing of the gates at Roosevelt that on Friday the Bucks livery stable proprietors considered it safe to attempt crossing Six head of horses were driven back and forth several times to pack the sand and the ford was then staked out. By keeping above the stakes. one can cross in perfect safety. Just how long this will be possible depends upon how long the gates are closed. for probably it will be past fording again when they are opened.

Mr.. Merchant, you can reach
more than 1900 families through
the columns of the News each
week. There is an average OF
three members to each family and
their individual purchases amount
to several hundred dollars yearly.
The total business of these $500
to 5000 readers will run into the
thousands of dollars within the
course of a year and you are GER
tainly DESTROYS of getting your
full share and more too if possi-
BILE. They are willing to spend
their money where they can get
the best bargains, and the mer-
chant offering the best induce
ments will get the biggest share.
You can get just as much of this
business as you want; it all de-
ponds on you. IF you don't want
it, or rather if you don't try to
get it some other merchant will
and you must be content with
what happens to come your way.
By using the columns of the

intimately acquainted with them
and they will soon learn to look

Miles Nervine."

is now entirely well after taking
DR.. Miles Nervine only four

MRS. c. G. BENNETT,

Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus'
Dance and Spasms, are all nerv-
GUS diseases. They have been
cured in so many instances with
DR.. Miles Nervine that it is
reasonable to conclude that it is
almost sure to cure you. With
nervous diseases of a severe
type, persistent use has almost
invariably resulted in a complete
cure or lasting benefits, worth
many times the cost Of the REM
edy. The best evidence you can
get of its merits is to write to
those who have used it. Get a
bottle from your druggist. Take
it all according to directions, and
if it does not benefit he will re-
turn your money.

The New Drag Law.

The last Legislature passed
four road laws. One was drag
law and it was looked upon with
much favor by the farm members
of that body. The law is dis
tinct form the other laws passed
and it looks as if it might do
good. Here is the law:
Section lit shall be the duty
of the township board for the
purpose of this act to designate
such roads as in their judgement
by reason of travel and grade
conditions, should be known as
drag roads. They shall divide
such roads into sections as will
best carry out the purpose and
provisions of this act. And
it will be the duty of said board
to see that the provisions OF
this act are enforced. Beginning
at point nearest to the city or
town these sections shall be
continuous to the exteme point
dragged or to the township
boundry except where conditions
make it impractical to drag.
Said board shall appoint drag
man for each section, whose duty
it shall be to drag the public
highway on his section, when
the conditions of such highways
requires such work. The town.
ship board shall provide a road
drag for each section which shall
be shod with steel blades, and
not to be less than seven feet in
length. Said board shall divide
snch roads as required by reason
of travel and grade width more
than one trip with drag. For
the purpose of this act a trip
shall be the dragging of the en-
tire length of a section and re-
turn. The township board shall
designate what portion of the
road shall be single trip road and
what portion shall be double trip
road.
Section 2-In the selection and
appointment of dragmen, the
residents AUDITING their section,
shall have the preference, pro-
vided the township board may
remove the dragman from his po-
sition on account of Intellectual
work and make another appoint
ment for said section at any time.
Section 3. Compensation for a
single trip road shall be at the
rate of not to exceed fifty cents
per mile with a maximum ex-
penditure of FIVE dollars per mile
for any one year, and for double
trip roads at the rote of seventy
cents per mile with a maximum
of seven dollars and fifty cents
per mile for any one year.
