FLOOD DAMAGE IS
HEAVY IN VALLEY
Arno Irrigation Project In
jured $4,000 by High
Water; Trains Late.

Pecos, Texas, July 31@Train service
over the Santa Fe-New Mexico lines
between this city and Carlsbad Is com
pletely cut off owing to excessive
Reeves county and southeastern New
Mexico. Between Carlsbad and Lake
wood several miles of track are washed
away.
Engineer Geo. z. Ehrenberg of this
city, engineer in chief of the Arno
Cooperative Irrigation company, whose
dam is located on the Pecos river
several miles north of this city. says
that at least $3.50 worm OIL dam
age had been done to the plant at
Arno. What damage has been done
to the famous Barstow system it is
not known but Harold Barstow said
that unless the fume failed to hold
comparatively little damage would be
done there. If the fume fails, the dam
age may reach $4,000 It is thought
the fume will hold.
II. c. Stewart, superintendent of the
Pecos Irrigated Experiment station
and Porter A Whaley, secretary of the
Texas Experimental stations associa-
tions. have returned to Pecos from
College Station, Texas, where they at
tended the meeting of the legislative

SOUTHWESTERN HAS :
QUIT VALLEY SURVEY
Engineering Corps May Be
Sent to Work on Tucson
Extension.

The survey that the Southwestern sys-
tenn has been making of the upper val
ley between Anthony and the Elephant
Butte dam has been suspended, the en-
gineering corps ordered back to FL Paso
and the survey abandoned for the pres
ent. The purpose of the survey as given
by II. j. Simmons, general manager of
the Southwestern, was merely to study
the situation in the upper valley, in re-
lation to railroad line to connect with
the Southwestern road at Pelea, n NJ.
No intention of building caused the SUE
vey, according to the general MANAGER,
and the survey was ordered only for the
purpose of getting the necessary data
for such a study, he said.
It is thought that the reason for call
ing off the euryey, is to put the engi
neering corps in the field on the Tucson
extension work The contract for this
work will be let some time this week in
New York and it viii then become nee
essary for the grade stakes for the line
to be set, and it will require the serv-
ices of the entire engineering corps of
the Southwestern on this important
work As the Mesilla valley survey
was only a tentative one. it is thought
that it was abandoned for the present
and will be taken up again after the
railroad work On the Tucson extension is
completed.

The broad ledge or threshold of the
coal door makes an excellent oven for
baking potatoes. but care must be taken
to see that the fire is not too hot or they
will burn. For articles that require long,
slow baking. a lower temperature is
needed. Beans are delicious when baked
in a slow. even heat. and have a flavor
that it is impossible to obtain with gas
fire.
ANY tinsmith will make an oven sim
liar to those used for hearth cooking,
