Serious Engineering Problem

The Mohave County Miner says; "It is reported that the railroad company will soon com mence work on the building of an abutment in the middle of the Colorado river, to be erected as a support for the center of the long cantilever bridge below Needles, the war departmental hay ing lately. granted permission for the work. It is estimated that the bedrock ca which the buttress must rest is not less than 90 feet below the bottom of the river. And the excavating for the bedrock foundation and building up of the buttress will doubtless have to be done inside of steel tube, to keep out the water and quicksand. The under taking is a great one and many serious engineering problems will have to be solved before the completion Of the work. No doubt is felt, however, of the ultimate success of the work and the continued use of this bridge renders it necessary to secure this central support before the continued vibration shall have rendered this long span too dan gerous."

Rules Of Entry on
 Withdr dWdI Lands

Washington, July 12.-The act of June 9, 1910, providing for a Joan of S2O, 000,000 to the recla- nation fund contains a provision which is of general interest to the west, as 1t will affect the making of entries upon reclama- tion projects.
 Section 5 of this act provides in effect that hereafter no entry shall be allowed upon lands with drawn as susceptible of irriga, tion until the secretary of the interior shall have issued the usual public notice establishing the unit of acreage, announcing the water charges and when water can be applied.
 Lands Nhich have heretofore been withdrawn under what is known as second form withdraw als under the reclamation act will not, therefore, be subject to entry until the secretary has is- sued public notice. Fur thermore, as the first form withdrawal is by the reclamation act not sub jec to entry, the effect of this new legislation is to prevent entry on any lands withdrawn under the reclamation act.
 Where settlement is made in good faith prior to the passage of the act the settler will be per mitted within the usual time to complete his entry; further set clement or entry upon such lands is clearly prohibited.
 The secretary of the interior has directed the commissioner of the general land office to notify by wire such local land offices as are affected.
 The fact that under the recla nation act entries were permit ted upon these second form with drawals, settlers were able to go upon these lands long in advance of the time when water was ready. They have thus been compelled to live upou the lands without being able to make a living from them, as no crops could be obtained without irri- gation.
 The distress and hardShips suffered by these people have to a considerable extent been the cause of the demand for this ad- dition to the reclamation fund, and therefore, while this legisla- tiion does not appear to be properly part of this act, yet in effect it is the logical outcome of the conditions which called for the increase in the reclama- tiOn fund.

Heat is Chief Asset and Hens lay Boiled
 Eggs
fTucson Citlzen)

Mulford Winsor of Yuma, dep uty state grand master of the Elks, passed through Tucson yesterday en route to Bisbee and Douglas and thence to the re- union in Detroit.
 Mir. Winsor is enthusiastic about the future of Yuma, and thinks that it is only a question of time before the city in the Colorado valley will be one of the leaders in this entire coun- try. Irrigation is spreading everywhere and fruit culture is greatly on the increase.
 MT. Winsor says that Yuma people have quit trying to con- vince others that Yuma is not very hot, though the average temperature is only one degree higher than that of Phoenix. He says that even when asked if hens in Yuma do not lay hard boiled eggs, the native says that he doesn't doubt it, and then be- gins to boast of the heat, which is in reality the towns chief asset. The heat never hurts anybody, and it allows Yuma orange growers to get $3 more per box for their oranges and vineyard men to get big prices flor their grapes because they are on the market several weeks before those grown anywhere else. With the heat doing these things for Yuma, it not to be complained of, thinks Mir. Win SOr.

Sewer Problem

The city council met last Sat urday night in a special session to discuss the matter of proposed sewer construction. c. J. Clau- sen, former assistant project en- gineer of the reclamation service at Yuma and now assistant city engineer of Los Angeles, was present, having been employed in an advisory capacity in ac- cordance with a resolution pass ed at a previous meeting. MT. ClauSen is familiar with the ground-lay and had discussed nuprhe various aspects of the pro iected sewer lines with Mayor F. l.. Ewing prior to the meet ing.
 Mir. Clausen recommended to the council that a general system be put in to dispose of all sewage east of the mesa divide. In his opinion the main sewer line should be on Main street, with all other sewer lines leading into it. This would, he stated, neces- Sitate the establishing of a pump ing p1aut at the foot of Gila street to pump the sewage over the levee during high flood waters
 As to the cost of such propos- ed system, MT. Clausen did not care to make an advance esti mate. He agreed to draw the plans, make the surveys and blue prints for complete sys- tem for S400, and the council agreed to pay him this amount. In the event that the city should vote bonds for the construction of a sewer system on the plans thus drawn he is to further re- ceive six per cent of the cost of the sAtem for the supervision andA lction of the work.
 Fronf informal sentiments expressed it seems probable that the council will encourage the &Ssuance of bonds and provide V Szan elecxET ETfer E4es5ir4fareeeeerr E5i4aeeerr Clausen has submitted his plans, if they seem feasible and do not involve too much of ar outlay.
 While public opinion in Yuma is generally in favor of sewer construction, it varies greatly as to proposed plans, especially as to the location of the main sew CT. There many who think it more practicable and logical to run the main sewer down Madi- son avenue, with a termination in gravity fall into the Cobra do river, than to let the sewage from above run to Main street, necessitating pumping plant. In fact, this seems to be the pre- dominant sentiment, butperhaps only vote on a bond issue would determine it. The Senti- nel does not believe the problem of an adequate sewer system for Yuma is so complicated as to necessitate the contracting of extravagant engineering bills in advance of the acton of the vot- ing taxpayers, Surely there are men in Yuma county-property holders capable of making pre- liminary plans for sewer sys- tenn, and would do so at small cost to the city; and these plans could later be perfected when the city has the funds and is ready to push the work. The council should act with delibera- ton and along lines of economy in this matter, and not use undue haste in expending money for something that might not be utilized.

DA|RY|NG IN
The PALOUSE

w. B. Reinwald, city milk inspec-
tor, sees in the summer fallow
lands in the Palouse the future
hope of an abundant milk supply
for Spokane.
For years the farmers of the
Palouse have permitted their lands
to lie fallow every other year with
out producing anything.
Through the activity of Mr.. Rein
wald three large ranchers were
induced to put in silos and plant
corn for fodder in the land previ-
ously intended for fallow. This
corn was placed in silage and has
proved a great success in feeding
dairy cows. The farmers that
have tried it have made money by
sending the milk to Spokane. and
others will probably now follow
the lead.
Cow feed of this character costs
only a fraction of what alfalfa
does.

MARSHFIELD, Ore, Feb. 26.-
Seated upright in an arm chair, Lee

from ear to ear. VIM. White, step
son of Jones, later gave himself up
to the city marshal, confessing that
he murdered the man with a butch

tim was dead White calmly replied:

White, who is about % years of
of age, is thought to be mentally
unbalanced. He and his step-rather
are said to have quarreled over
financial matters.
A coroners jury this afternoon
held White for the murder. The
young man had been Ill during the
