DEVELOPMENT
GOOD DAYS ARE
COMING FOR CASAS
GRANDES VALLEY
Practically Whole Valley to
Be Put Under Irrigation
By Pumps.

Douglas, Ariz, June 2S.-That practi-
cally the whole Of the CaSas Grandes
valley will be put under cultivation.
either by using the water from the San
Carlos dam or by pumping is the pre-
diction enthusiastically made by J. N
McFate. Mr.. McFate recently arrived
in Douglas for short business stay,
coming direct from the valley, which
is go miles west of Tucson.
Settlers have been pouring into the
valley for some time, he states, more
than 100000 acres having been taken
up under the governments desert act
Of this amount the San Carlos reser-
vOir will only irrigate about 200 600
acres. The rest will be watered by
pumping plants.
The pumping plan is very feasible
in the Casas Grandes valley" said Mr..
McFate. There is heavy underfloW
in the valley, underlying the surface
at an average depth of between Is and
% feet. There are about % pumping
plants, some of large capacity, under
construction or in operation now. These
pump method of irrigating is entirely
feasible"
Track Laying in Progress.
Six miles of tracklaying had been
completed on the FL Paso & Southwest
ern extension west of Fairbank up to
Saturday evening when work was
knocked off, according to information
received at the company office here
Progress up to the present time has
been rapid and has not been delayed
by any untOward- events. y yesterday af-
ternoon two carloads of 1aborers from
Ell Paso, numbering between so and 80,
passed through the city bound for
Fairbank. This is the second bunch
that has passed through here, the 9TH
er having been 120 strong.
As headquarters for the officials of
the road, supervising the track laying,
the private car ClOudcroft went west
yesterday. A sidetrack has been in
stalled and the car will be taken for
ward as the work progresses, thus at
fording a comfortable office and sleep
ing quarters for the officials in charge.
According to local estimate the track
should reach Tucson by October 1.
