GREAT DAM soon
TO Be OPENED
Water Win Be Turned Onto Desert
That VIII Be Transformed Into
5000 Farms.

PHENIX, Ariz., May 19.-Unclt
N6m's most unique reclamation pro
jttt. the stupendous feat OF engineer
InR IA the SAT- river valley, Arizona
Will be completed next month.
Early In June the last stone Will be
laid on the wonderful Roosevelt dam
N where once stood the town OF koose
Felt A few weeks later the small AIS
tfibuting canals will be completed ana
the water viii be ready TO turn onto
Ii desert that will In few short years
be transformed into 5000 or more
fruitful farms.
The Roosevelt dam pens up the
waters OF the Salt river about seventy
miles northeast OF Phenix. There
the river runs through a narrow gorge
across which the. huge barrier OF stone
and cement stretches to length or
over 900 feet. II is 2S4 feet hlgh
and at its base is l6S feet thick, grad
ualIy narrowing To 20 feet at the crest.
Work on the dam was begun hvs
years ago, the government starting
then to manufacture the cement which
was used TO hold the stones together.
s The reservoir created by the dam
Is the largest artificial body OF water
ia the world. It's capacity is 6l.OOO,-
600 900 cubic feet, and If the water
were spread over Delaware II would
cover the entire surface OF that state
foot in depth.
1t will irrigate 100000 acres of land,
and II is estimated by expert agricul-
turists that the crops OF single sea-
son will pay for the entire investment
OF the government, which will have
been about $S,640,000.
Not only will this great dam save
np the water for the dried fields, but
4 II will also light the farmers homes,
give them the power for their tele-
phone lines. their mills, and then there
will be enough power left TO light the
homes, run the street cars, mills and
factories in the whole city of Phenix.
At the base of the great dam the
'g0yernment has erected power
house which will turn the water fall
into electric currents.
Not only will Uncle Sam take care
OF his white children who live in the
Salt river valley, but he will also
pump the water that will moisten TO-
900 acres up in the highlands, where
the bitches cannot carry the flow.
These are the acres where the Pimas
and Maricopas, Indian wards OF the
government, live.
Years ago the white men changed
the current of the river TO their own
farms and left the Indians high and
dry down stream. Since then the red
men have become vagabonds; that is,
those who didn't die; and II is the
intention of the government to make
some sort of reparation to them now,
and teach them to ccultivate the soil
again.
The big irrigation project will not
be formally opened until autumn. A
movement has gained Roadway in Ari-
zona to have Col Roosevelt open the
project on his birthday, Oct. 27.
