with the approval of the land owners as
well of every resident of the Mesa sec
ton who is Interested in the welfare
OF the southside.
The land which was practically all
taken by homestead entry within the
past five years is principally held by
men who do not care to venture the
installation OF a pumping plant. The
lard is of little value as an income
proposition without water. With water
it is valuable The feature of the plan
lies in the fact that the installation of
pumps does not cost the land owner
one cent in money. II is question of
trading OF so acres of raw desert land
for an eighty acre tract under water
The instant the wells are completed the
pumps installed, the electricity attach
ed and 24hour test of a run of wa
ter out over the land the deed to the
so acres becomes due The landowners
throughout the first unit are practically
agreed that it is the best proposition
available and Il large majority are rec
ommending the plan by their sigma
lures to the contract. The company
guarantees the development of two and
one half acre feet of water within 200
days An amount sufficient to irrigate
all crops and make the desert blossom
as rose garden. The company further
agrees to have the entire tract of tlS
first unit under water within one year.
The real Significance of the PROPOSE
/. I /
the addition Of 5000 acres of rich
farming land will mean. The company
is already planning an extensive col
oniZation scheme which will bring hun
dreds of settlers to the valley. The so
acre tracts to he secured by the com
pany viii be sold in tracts to suit the
purchaser a feature which is of svast
Importance to the Mesa section.
Another important feature is that the
treasurer of the concern, o. S. Stapley,
is a local man. The funds for the de-
velopment work will be retained at this
place and on account of the nearness to
the tract the important outfitting will
be done here. Mr. Stapley. recognized
as one of the leading business men of
the town, after careful investigation
consented to give his assistance toward
the furthering of the plan because he
recognized the possibilities to be gained
and the wonderful asset that it would
he to the valley. Mr.. Beville and Mr.
Renck are also giving their assistance
toward the proposition which means
much to the success of the concern on
account of the standing of the gentle
men in the community.

Grafton Within Ninety
Days-AmpIe Capital Be
hind Project.

A plan for the reclamation of $4,000
acres of desert land tributary TO Mesa
on the east, was launched Saturday.
which has for its object the putting in
of system OF pumping plants utiliz-
ing government power and the solving
the problem which has been worrying
the homesteaders who have secured
patents to their lands for months.
The plan provides for dividing the
$4,000 acres into five units of 5000 acres
per unit. The first unit to be devel-
oped lies Immediately south of the
Chandler to Higley road and on which
well drilling rigs of the large size viii
be moved within thirty days. The land
owners within the unit will be required
TO sign up an agreement To deed one
half of their quarter section to the com
pany after the wells have been put
down, the power attached and ready to
flow the water out over the entire
tract. A feature of the plan is that
both the company and the land owner
are to be assessed equally for ma in
tenance which means the rapid devel-
opment Of the splendid farming COM
munity above mentioned. The com
pany is capitalized for s720O0O and the

INSTRUCTION COURSE
PROFITABLE FOR CO. c.
Tempe Militia Putting In Good Time
with Sergeant Instructor landrcth

The course of instruction that has
peeh conducted for the last ten days
by Sergeant Martin L.. Landreth of
the twenty second Infantry, United
States army. at the armorv of GONNA
ny { in Tempe has proven decidedly
helpful and the officers and men of
the company who have availed them
selves of the opportunity to- post up on
National Guard work feel well repaid
FOR the time they have 50 far spent
with the course.
Sergeant Landreth has given over
much OF the time t. lectures and dis
cussions on the technical problems
with which the guardsmen are con-
fronted in their daily routine. The
work has involved a detailed study of
many points of vital interest TO the
soldier, and those who have attended
the meetings probably now have
more thorough understanding of ac-
tual militia work than they have ever
had an opportunity to learn before.
Captain F. NJ. Irish of company c,
i'll discussing the work of the school,
is highly pleased with the results that
have been derived and feels confident
that Sergeant Landreth's work will do
much toward building and maintaining
a stronger militia in Tempe. The
class of fellows that are enlisted in
the company are of the enthusiastic,
eager and willing to do kind that will
make company c spell success from
