 End of Central Avenue.

The members of the Country club held meeting at the board of trade room yesterday afternoon and made fine progress toward the goal they are seeking It was reported that approx imately s4.C00 worth of stock had been sold and the work of dispOsing of it will be pushed hard for few days.
 The committe on site reported and it was definitely decided to accept as a site for clubhouse and grounds. an eighty acres tract at the north end of Central avenue. about five acres of which is situated on this side of the Arizona canal. and will make a fine club house grounds The rest of il is north of the canal and will be used for golf links.
 One forty it is understood has been secured on a leasing plan and the other forty purchased at reasonable price The work of preparing the links will be undertaken at once and the build ing of a club house just as soon as possible.

PHOENIX CLUB
 BEGINS WORK
Popular Organization Pre- pares to Start an Active Campaign for Better Health Conditions in the City.

There were three matters of especial importance which came before the Young Mems Phoenix club at it's meet ing last night at the board of trade rooms. one was the banquet. a sec ond was the election of officers and ] the third was the selection of a policy for the coming season.
 As to the banquet, that was all that the most fastidiOus could have desir- ed. In fact il is said to have been the best affair of the kind the club has ever enjoyed and the club it is known to have something of reputation along that line. The disposal of the eat ables was followed hy the election If the officers, which resulted as follows:
 President, Dr. Godfrey: Vive presi- dent. Claude D. Jones; Treasurer. R
 H. Brooks
 Under the constitution of the club the members also elect the chairman of the committees. and this part of the balloting resulted as follows:
 J l.. Gust was chosen chairman Of the civics committe. F.. s De Pass was reelected chairman of the finance com " the reception committee. c L. Hayes was elected for the program commit tee. | l.. Gregory for the publicity committee and Phil Ensign for the membership committee.
 The third consideration was the mat ter of policy for the coming winter: and perhaps no wiser choice could have been made by the club than the one it did in fact make, which relates 10 the conservation Of the public health. A number of matters having will. of course. eventually develop: but for the present two of the subjects which will receive especial attention are dairies and wells.
 As to the matter of dairieS one of the members. who is a man thoroughly acquainted with matters of this sort. said he had recently taken occasion to examine a separator in use by one of the dairies which is supplying milk to the people Of Phoenix and he said il was in l condition of filth almost past belief. It is also said that some of the wells within the city are bad and this matter will receive attention It ia believed that the unsanitary condition Of the wells and of some of the dai- ries is responsible in large measureI for much of the infant mortality in thei city.
 There is no question but if the clubI starts an active campaign along these lines it will receive the hearty support of the public and that it will be a dis tinCtly useful organization.
 The club will also start a membership campaign: but as one of the members put it yesterday evening they hope to make the matter of membership SD at tractivc that this part of the work will take care of itself.

4 LITTLE LEEWAY
 FOR HOMESTEADERS
Board of Governors In Special meet
 ina Grants a Measure of Relief.

At a special meeting Of the board of governors of the Water Users as- sOciation yesterday. two matters were considered, one of a formal nature the other of considerable moment as 1t was ihe precedent for new policy of liberality and justice in respect Of certain members of the association, who are trying to carry their burden under handicap that does not rest on most of the members.
 The formal matter referred to was the authorizing of the president and secretary of the association to dra" warrants to meet certain payments on power plant machinery now due. Cn- der the bylaws no warrants can be issued except by order of the board and some of the early contracts now made are due and payable. Their pay men was authorized as they come due.
 The other matter acted upon was the granting to homesteaders who are members of the association, the privi-
Arizona republican., 1911-10-10

1 lege of paying their annual assess ments on only such lands as they are entitled to buy water for. which in many instances is not the full amount of land they have signed to the asso- citation
 Under the bylaws of the association. a member cannot pay his assessmen
 on a part of his land and let the rest go, on the theory that he does not care
 to till a part of it, or finds it hard to
 raise the money for all O. it. That would be too slipshod a way of doing business and would leave the govern ment in the position of never knowing what to depend upon. Moreover it is
 unnecessary. for if one works his land he can make revenue sufficient to meet
 the project obligations. If he does not
 expect to work it he should sell it. or
 to maintain his rights he should will lingly keep up his assessments, and if
 he is short of ready money he has titled
 land on which he can raise money bv
 mortgage.
 The homestcader whose land is all within the reservoir district and en-
 titled to water. if there be such. are in
 the same position. Though they have
 no title to their land yet they have
 the water and must pay their assess ments
 But there are other homesteaders in class by themselves. who under the
 Kent decree are entitled to water for only a small part of their holdings. To ! illustrate. some years ago a certain rancher took a homestead in the west l end of the valley and was able to se- cure water for twenty acres under the Appropriators canal. Under the Kent decree he has a right 10 water for that acreage but not for the rest of his holding. though appreciative of the benefits of the association he has signed his entire homestead to it in the hope of getting water eventually when the apportionment is made. In the meantime he can secure water for about twenty acres. therefore cannot make the rest of his land productive, cannot pay the assessments on quar- ter section. and having no title to the land cannot borrow money on it.
 The board decided that pending some change in the bylaws to meet this sit nation. the association would accept payment from homesteaders so situat- ed. for such acreage as they were en- titled to have water for under the law

PROPER TREATMENT FOR CATARRH

The first thing to be done in the treatment of Catarrh is to begin the use of a medicine that will have a direct effect on the source of the dis ease; Ill no other way can any cura- tive progress be made. $. s. $. does this more quickly and satisfactorily than any other medicine, It is the most penetrating of all blood puri- fers, thoroughly, yet gently, expell ing all catarrhal matter and impuri- ties from the circulation, and by its fine tonic properties strengthening and building up the system in such healthy manner that 1t is enabled to overcome the depressing effects of Catarrh. Some local treatment IS often desired to open the air passages of the head and nose and relieve the congestion and "tickling" of the throat, and other unpleasant symp- toms. There are many helpful meas ures which may be TeSorted to, and there are others which may be harm ful, and to aid Catarrh sufferers we have prepared a special treatise on the disease which will be of great value to any who suffer with this trouble. This book together with any medical advice free to all who write and request 1t. Take s. s. s regularly and according to directions, and it will certainly remove the cause and cure your Catarrh. s. $. $. IS sold at drug stores.
